And Then There Were Six...

I can't begin to tell you how happy I was when I saw that Episode 6 was out!!! My glee quickly dashed when you all began talking about whether the show would go on or not. Don't do this to us!! You guys have such a great thing going! Your podcasts are at such high quality that you could actually afford to scale back a bit and not spend so much time on them and STILL have a fantastic show!
If there is anything I can do to help just let me know!
Now about the show - Loving the format although to be honest, I loved it before! I personally like the Rants! Replacing your data with a blank disk when backing up would have been a fantastic rant. I think all of us Apple II / Commodore64 / IBM ST owners cried more than one tear because of that!!
I know that XBOX360, Playstation and Nintendo are all the rage these days, but there is just something special about the retro flavor of your show. There are Waaaaay too many console gaming podcasts out there and having a show that revisits the glory days of PC's and gaming (both console & arcade) really sets you apart from the rest of the muck. Don't lose sight of that special touch you guys put to the podcast! Looking forward to hearing about the California Extreme Classic Video Game Show!!
The Retro Respect segment was nothing short of fantastic! the Apple II holds a special place in my heart. I think the main difference between the games of old and todays games (other than graphics) is gameplay. Those games were actually fun to play! That's why they are still popular today. You guys hit the nail on the head. The only thing I wished I could have heard was the mention of my favorite ALL TIME GAME - The Bard's Tale. Want an Idea for a show?
Interview The Bard's Tale designer, Michael Cranford!! I know alot of people that would love to hear from Mike again!
Just wanted to chime in and tell you that you guys did it again! You made my week!
THANK YOU!!
Shawn
