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, being a different lineup of heroes to that listeners will be used to, go back a decade to the launch of the XBox and look at the game that made the platform. Halo.
We’re back, leaner and meaner but minus a Jack this week. We make up for his loss by bringing you a whole stable of games, one of the greatest stables of all time, Star Trek.
25th Anniversary, Final Unit, Klingon Honor Guard, Birth of the Federation, Armada, Starfleet Command, Elite Force and even the mighty Quiz Show, hosted by Q, all get a mention.
You’d think, given the title, that this is the show in which our heroes delve into the topic that is Star Wars: Dark Forces and its’ Jedi Knight sequels.
You’d think that. Yes… that would be a reasonable assumption.
You’ll have to listen to find out if it’s true or not, though.
With W1S1 HQ moving the show has been thrown into disarray. These tidbits were dredged from the detritus, however and we hope they prove sufficient to scratch your itch.
In which our heroes, a week late, gather in reenforced numbers to discuss the Sid Meier’s world-conquering epic that is Civilization. Will more people mean more insightful commentary? Or more off-topic banter? There’s only one way to know for certain.
In which our heroes tirelessly, boldly and brilliantly overcome challenges temporal, physical and technological to finally bring you their thoughts on one of the greatest and most original RPG series of all time; The Elder Scrolls. Also touched on, fondest gaming memories and gaming nemesi.
You would not believe the difficulties the W1S1 crew have encountered in attempting to make a simple hour-long audio show in the last few weeks. I would explain them here but it would be futile. As I already pointed out, you would not believe me. Thus, in desperation, following yet another technical failure and given vicious time constraints before they are scattered to whole different countries for a week, Simon, Troy and Zoë sat down to put something, anything on record for you, our listeners.
And this is it. Half an hour or so of unedited madness from deep within the bowels of W1S1 HQ. In all its… glory?
