Segment 1: Introduction

Hello everyone, my name is Andrew and welcome to From Pong to Pixels!; A podcast all about introducing, analyzing, and reviewing video games!

This show plans to take listeners on a journey through the world of video games and how they’ve evolved over the years. I myself have not seen most of the games I’ll be covering, so it’ll be a new experience for everyone!

I’ve always had a sort of attachment to video games ever since I played them with my father at a young age, so this is something that I’m very passionate, and nostalgic about. I’m really grateful that I can express my thoughts and opinions to new people who feel the same way I do.

Now, if you either want to learn about old games and how they’ve shaped gaming today, or expose yourself to new and exciting games, this podcast has you covered on all sides. Each one of these episodes plan to introduce, talk about, and review the most popular games from each decade.

I’ll be starting in the 70’s with the invention of Pong, hence the name “From Pong to Pixels”. I want this to be a journey for both me and you guys, taking everyone through the timeline of gaming, while hopefully opening their eyes to the complex and compelling history of the gaming industry.

I also want to share some personal experiences with some of the games I cover and maybe bring some people on to make the episodes feel a bit more lively. Once again I’m very excited to be able have this podcast, telling my memories and own opinions on popular games with anyone who chooses to listen.

Thank you all for listening and I’ll see you guys next time on the first episode of From Pong to Pixels. Cya!
