Are gaming backlogs a bad idea and a source of unnecessary stress? EposVox and I tackle this question in Episode 2 of the Dual Comm Podcast, diving into whether backlogs are helpful for staying organized or just another source of guilt. We also explore Sony’s PlayStation Mascot Problem, discussing what happened to beloved franchises like Crash Bandicoot, Sly Cooper, and Twisted Metal. Our conversation touches on holiday gaming memories, from unwrapping consoles like the PS3 and Xbox 360 to the cozy vibes of old Pokemon games. Later, we debate the value of PC setups versus consoles for chill gaming, share why firsthand experience matters when discussing games, and say a heartfelt goodbye to Battlefield 3 on Xbox 360 and PS3 as we reflect on its multiplayer legacy.
