Classic Plastic is a (usually) twice monthly video program that strives, in around ten minutes, to talk about video gaming how it once was in relation to how it is now. The gaming world at large through the eyes of retrogamers is what to expect here. We play everything, however the games and gaming world of the past provide a strong influence which we can't deny. It's the knowledge and experiences of growing up as part of the video game generation combined with the modern gaming industry, right here at classicplastic.net! Join host David and co-host Ian along with the occasional special guest as we descend into the long forgotten catacombs of gaming. Trust us, it has been a long time since anyone's been down here. |
