fergojisan Posted October 7, 2015 Report Posted October 7, 2015 This post was recognized by Justin! "Shared your own Podcast!" fergojisan was awarded the badge 'Podcast Pro' and 50 points. Hi all, my name is Ferg and I started this now bi-weekly podcast in 2013. My goal is to cover EVERY game made for the Atari 2600. Because I'm dumb. In each episode, I cover one to three games (usually by one company) and I talk about the gameplay, history (of the game AND the programmer if I can), packaging, and YOUR memories of the games. I always give a heads up for what's coming up and I get such wonderful feedback for almost every game. You can check out all of the episodes here: http://2600gamebygamepodcast.libsyn.com/webpage I am also on iTunes and Stitcher, but iTunes has started to remove some of the shows, so the Libsyn page is your best bet right now for the early episodes, if you want to hear me learn how to podcast over a long period of time (still learning). This week I cover two Spectravision games which I like very much, China Syndrome and the Challenge of Nexar. You can find the episode here: http://traffic.libsyn.com/2600gamebygamepodcast/109_-_China_Syndrome__Challenge_of_Nexar_by_Spectravision.mp3 The next episode will be about E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial, which you may have heard of. If you would like to contribute your memories of E.T., you can send them to me at 2600gamebygame@comcast.net Thank you for reading all this and especially for listening! nosweargamer, The Professor, Chris++ and 3 others 6 Quote
StormSurge Posted October 7, 2015 Report Posted October 7, 2015 FERG!!!!Just in case you aren't a regular listener, this is a bi-weekly joyride that has rekindled my love for Atari & retro gaming in general. Ferg does a fantastic job and the listener feedback is so, so good. ***Warning*** The Atari 2600 Game by Game podcast is a dangerous gateway podcast. You may soon find yourself discovering many other fine podcasts and never have any time to listen to anything else. nosweargamer, Justin, Chris++ and 4 others 7 Quote

fergojisan Posted November 4, 2015 Author Report Posted November 4, 2015 Since the last episode, I put out a pinball special and episode 111 is out today, featuring Turmoil and Fantastic Voyage. http://traffic.libsyn.com/2600gamebygamepodcast/111_-_Turmoil__Fantastic_Voyage_by_20th_Century_Fox.mp3 Happy_Halloween_Haunted_House_by_Gottlieb.mp3 In two weeks I'll be discussing Name This Game and Towering Inferno by US Games. If you have any thoughts or memories of these games, please send them to 2600gamebygame@comcast.net. Thanks for listening! Chris++, nosweargamer, StormSurge and 1 other 4 Quote
StormSurge Posted November 4, 2015 Report Posted November 4, 2015 This was a pleasant surprise this morning!BTW, the pinball episode was great. I'm planning on picking that up for Pinball Arcade on Xbox One. Thanks Ferg! fergojisan and The Professor 2 Quote
fergojisan Posted November 4, 2015 Author Report Posted November 4, 2015 Thank you right back. StormSurge and The Professor 2 Quote
fergojisan Posted November 15, 2015 Author Report Posted November 15, 2015 I have Name This Game and Towering Inferno coming up, and again, I am having a lot of fun with these two. It's amazing to me that just putting a little bit of time into these games yields such positive results. It's not true for all of them of course (I'm looking at you Fireworld), but I'm finding that games that have been dismissed for years deserve another look. Phil already has great videos for these up on his No Swear Gamer show, so please check those out! Then you can send me some feedback at 2600gamebygame@comcast.net if you'd like. If I ask for feedback here, I will forget to read it. If you listen to my show you know how I am. nosweargamer, StormSurge, The Professor and 1 other 4 Quote
