Episode 002 – Comfort Food Games

Bit For Byte

Comfort food games are ones we keep returning to, when we just want something familiar. Mark and Sebastian list their 5. Okay, Sebastian cheats a bit with a worthy honorable mention. These are the games that feel like a warm blanket when coming in from the snow. We did this episode in an effort to let listeners get a perspective on our gaming history, but also how Bit For Byte came to be.

The news segment is kicked off this episode too! While we aren’t breaking any news, we still get excited or worked up for titles coming down the line. This time, we weigh in on Portal 2, Super Street Fighter IV, and express our concern for Metroid: Other M.

This is the grilled cheese and soup of episodes.
