Show Notes
Forty years ago, Joust rode onto the arcade scene and brought fresh controls and an entirely wacky concept straight to the mainstream.
This week we celebrate the 40th anniversary of one of the most iconic arcade games of all time by hopping on our giant birds and poking eachother in the head with large sticks. It's Joust!
But is this 40 year old icon still worth playing in the modern day? We aim to find out.
Before booting up the game, we spend some time catching up on our current gaming habits, and discussing our favourite modern and retro arcade video games of all time!
