Coury and Try from My Life in Gaming join us to snake-draft our way through the Generation Gap--building four 'teams' of five games each released across all game systems and regions during our first-season time period. The competition was friendly but fierce, with plenty of you-took-my-picks and even more surprise curveballs! We all walked away with at least one new must-play game for our backlogs. And, as always, we streamed this recording session live to FunFactor ULTRA members–so if you’d like to get in on the fun, just sign up at https://funfactorpod.com/ ! See you on the Discord, and you’ll see us when we next go live! ----- Sources include the Video Game History Foundation , the Internet Archive , Retromags.com , our original research, and our personal magazine collections. The FunFactor theme, and all other original songs, are composed and performed by Millennium Falck.
