Stop Killing Games | Past Present Conversations
In this thought-provoking episode of Past Present Conversations, writer, gamer, and show contributor Aaron Strange joins Ashton for a deep dive into the Stop Killing Games initiative—a growing movement demanding accountability and transparency in the gaming industry. Together, they unpack the urgent issue of game preservation, the role of emulation in keeping digital history alive, and how corporate decisions—especially from giants like Microsoft Xbox—are impacting the future of play.
From shuttered servers to inaccessible titles, Aaron and Ashton explore how corporate culture is eroding the soul of gaming, and what players, developers, and fans can do to push back. Whether you're a retro enthusiast or a modern-day gamer, this episode challenges you to rethink what it means to truly own a game.
