In keeping with our pledge to follow up on multi-part episodes in a more timely fashion (well, my pledge... Bob doesn't really need to amend his ways), here is the sequel to our new year's episode on video game history in years that end with the numeral 1. We covered 1971 and 1981 on Jan. 1, and now here we are on Feb. 1 with the follow-up: A look back at 1991.
Expect 2001 not too far down the road. There was a lot to say about these years in gaming. Who knew? Except... of course... those old people like us, who lived through them and were showered with more wonderful games than we could keep up with (not to mention afford). So please enjoy this trip down memory lane with the Retronauts East crew.
