World 1 Stage 1 is a podcast talking about classic games. Largely unavailable classics. It’s also a podcast about three guys going wildly off topic. If hearing Another World, Sam and Max or Monkey Island makes you smile then you need to listen.
In which our heroes gather together in their entirety for the boldest, bravest, perhaps foolhardiest episode of World 1 Stage 1 in history. Spanning the atlantic and stretching the limits of technology a record-breakingly large cast gather to take on the dangerously broad and sensitive topic ‘gender and sexuality in gaming’.
This is World 1 Stage 1, of course, which means I am confident in saying the topic was handled with W1S1′s … usual aplomb (and sound quality issues).
Episode One – Another World, in which our heroes discuss the 1991 French classic ‘Another World’, spending most of the show agreeing that the game is hard.
(This is a re-run show to cover a period of brief hiatus here at W1S1 HQ. We’ll be back with new material as soon as life allows.)
In which our heroes open a box to discover not one, not two, not four but three of the finest games ever made. I think this one’s going to make people happy. A lot of people. A lot of happy.
That’s right! Tonight at 00:00 GMT the W1S1 crew goes live with their usual brand of insanity and inanity.
Come talk video games or come distract our heroes and lead them down other, scary and unique paths. As long as you come. Our live shows are driven by you.
In which our heroes, all of our heroes, embark on an epic adventure in a galaxy far, far away a long, long time ago.
Apologies for the sound quality, technical issues arose and this is what was salvaged form the wreckage. In light of the content, I decided it was better to put it out than try for a third recording of the show.
In which our heroes take a fond, rambling look back over the year, remembering their favourite games and realising how many they completely overlooked.
In which our intrepid heroes tackle the 2001 god game ‘Black and White’ from Lionhead Studios, with listener mail, a brief segue into F1 and an update from Hyrul.
In which our heroes, lead by Troy, fondly recall one of the greatest N64 games of all time not to mention one of the leading causes of inter-friend violence in the 1990s, Goldeneye. Of course nothing will stop them taking a little time out to discuss The Legend of Zedla some more and, seeing as Nintendo is involved, the subject of Motion Controllers was inevitably going to rear its’ head.
