Nostalgia Goggles

Are the games of our childhood as good as we remember or do we just have Nostalgia Goggles?

Gradius III

George is too lazy to test the Konami code (it works) and Lyons recalls being terrible at bullethell games (he is.)

Super Mario Kart

Lyons relives a fond childhood memory, and George realizes it was actually Mario Kart 64 he was thinking of.

Golden Axe

George recommended Golden Axe and we then spend an hour regretting it. Not completely without charm, it's difficult to enjoy without Nostalgia Goggles strapped on tight.

Sonic 2

Sonic 2 was Lyons' childhood favorite and he's frothing at the mouth to replay it. George is a bit more skeptical.

Super Mario World

There's no getting around it: Super Mario World is every bit as amazing as you remember. But nothing is perfect, and we still found things to complain about.
