This episode we go down the mostly frustrating, but sometimes nostalgic road of game remakes. Which ones do we love? Which ones do we hate? Do they need to exist? Can they replicate the same feels as the original? Are they part of the giant weight of capitalism breathing down your every memory? Andrew and Sam weigh in!
