Get your wallet out, you cheap bastards, because in this episode we're nominating games that are rare and/or expensive.

You can choose your voting choice for the Hall of Fame based on the rarest, most expensive or just the best game (probably do that).

In an explosive pod, Rob nominates something fucking ridiculous and we try to track down and live call an old Spectrum developer.

Say hi @vg_hof on X or @vghof on BlueSky, and email videogamehof@gmail.com

We're here to cram those pesky loser games from the last 8 episodes into the Hall of Fame whether you like it or not!

That's not all, though, as we actually induct FIVE games in this episode, because there's a quiz to play and the winner gets to induct ANY game that's lost from any previous episode.

You can play along with the quiz, and you also need to vote on the category we pick games from next. Head over to @VG_HOF on Twitter or @vghof on BlueSky to vote now!

Well, this feels topical doesn't it! Who doesn't love a good console launch (when the games don't cost £75)? We're here to celebrate Gaming Christmas by nominating four incredible console launch titles for potential induction into the Hall of Fame.

Oh, and skip to about 9:50 if you hate football and everything to do with it. We had to placate the Geordies just this once.

If you want to vote on the games, go to @VG_HOF on Twitter or @vghof on BlueSky and get on it. Also, send us an email to videogamehof@gmail.com.

Put 'em up, punk! We're nominating fighting games for the Hall of Fame!

Voting's finished for this one (this is a re-upload), so listen to Episode 49 to find out the winning game!

We can be your hero, baby. That's right, we're here to kiss away your pain with four superhero game nominations for the Video Game Hall of Fame.

The pickings may be a bit slim, but we still come out of it with four bangers. Just remember that Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is already in the HOF so there's no rush to induct, say, its predecessor. Just FYI.

Go to @VG_HOF on Twitter or @vghof on BlueSky to vote for the game you want to win! Send us an email to videogamehof@gmail.com

See you next time for fighting games!

What a console the PS2 is. So many classic games for us to nominate for the Hall of Fame (and a fair few we already have). Join us in a celebration of one of the GOATs.

Once you've heard the pod, head over to @VG_HOF on Twitter or @vghof on BlueSky to vote for the PS2 game you want in the HOF.

In this episode, we chill out by nominating therapeutic games for the Hall of Fame. Remember, therapy is a very subjective activity!

Voting's closed on this one now, so tune in to episode 46 to hear the winner.

Is it too late to say happy new year? It is isn't it. Well, hope you had a good one anyway, and to celebrate the beginning of 2025 we're doing another de facto GOTY pod and inducting a 2024 game into the Hall of Fame.

Steve doesn't really play new games that aren't Shenmue homebrew mods, so we bring in a special guest to nominate for him. We also have a big ol' chat about games consoles we own and covet, and there's the return of an old friend who's still the best at shagging.

Go vote for the game you want to induct over on Twitter @VG_HOF or @vghof on BlueSky, and/or send us an email to videogamehof@gmail.com
