Title: Atari 2600 Game By Game Podcast
Post by: fergojisan on April 14, 2013, 11:00:22 AM
Hi there, I started doing a podcast a few months ago called the 2600 Game By Game podcast. Each week I take 1-3 games released for the 2600 (in part number order) and I go over the history of the game and the company that produced it, as well as a small bio of the programmer(s). I also describe the game play and I also talk about packaging variations. If I have any stories from when I was a kid, I tell those, and I encourage my listeners to send their stories to 2600gamebygame@comcast.net. This week I started accepting mp3 stories, so if you have a microphone and a dream, you can send those in too. :)

I just released episode 8, which is about the Parker Brothers games Jedi Arena and The Empire Strikes Back. You can listen to the episode here http://traffic.libsyn.com/2600gamebygamepodcast/Episode_8_-_Jedi_Arena__The_Empire_Strikes_Back.mp3, or you can stream it on Stitcher: http://app.stitcher.com/#browse/feed/33663/episodes. The podcast can also be found on iTunes and Podcast Pickle.

Next week's episode will be about Warlords and Defender, so if you'd like to share your stories about those games, please do so! You can also find the show on Twitter https://twitter.com/2600GameByGame and Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/2600GameByGamePodcast

Thanks for your time, and thanks for listening!

This week in episode 23, I talk about Space Jockey and Sneak n' Peek by U.S. Games, and I linger on how terrible Sneak n' Peek is. Next week I'll be discussing Basic Programming and Video Olympics by Atari.
