  • Half Life 2 - 20th Anniversary - This Week In Retro 196
    2024/11/23

    As Half Life 2 celebrates its 20th anniversary with a special edition we also talk about the remastered Warcraft 1,2 and 3 offering from Blizzard which leads to some RTS chat. An article about how Dragon's Lair financially crippled a player 40 years ago who has now beaten the game prompts us to think about games we just walked away from.
