The Gaming Outsider Podcast – Episode 027: Happy Anniversary, Playstation!

The new weekly update episode of The Gaming Outsider podcast is now live. Since gaming news is a bit lite this week, we’re trying something a little different. This week, the gang celebrates the 20th anniversary of the North American launch of the original Sony Playstation game console. We discuss our fondest memories of this legendary console, our favorite games and how we view the console overall. Aside from the PSX, we also discuss preorder woes, impressions of Metal Gear Solid V along with Mad Max, and also ponder what’s going on with Nintendo in terms of their pseudo Pikmin 4 announcement. The winner of our August gift card contest will also be announced on the show, so listen to find out if you’re a winner! Simply use the links on our website to grab the episode via iTunes, Stitcher or listen directly below using our embedded media player. Don’t forget to hop on our Facebook group and share your fondest memories of the original Playstation as well.
