Number 41 - Ridge Racer 3D, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, Final Fantasy VI

Being served up today: a sweetly hoppy brew of video game chit chat and nonsense. 

For the main event, three gently sparkling jars of amber nectar as Jonathan, Chris and Minty tell tales of their 41st favourite games of all times. But of course, not before a round of aperitifs in the form of Animal Crossing waffle, as well as some thoughts on Ori and the Will of the Wisps, some classic multiplayer PC games,  the recent console port of Doom 64, Super Mario Maker 2's recent update, and lockdown-induced gaming malaise. 

(shall we, uh, stop with this, uh, alcoholic beverage metaphor?)

Today's MAIN EVENT games!

Chris tells some long winded stories of teenage disappointment to tee up his eventual glowing praise of Ridge Racer 3D's greatest hits approach to the Ridge Racer formula. 

Jonathan places Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time atop two towering pedestals marked 'defining 3D action game' and 'best third party title on the Nintendo GameCube'.

Then finally, Minty talks up the grandiosity of Squaresoft's 16-bit crowning glory, celebrating the true artistry of the games sprite work, setting, story and soundtrack. 

Drink up, lads!
