Bad With Games is a podcast journey through the best, most important, and most influential titles in video game history. Games journalist Jonathan lends his knowledge and experience to gaming neophyte Will as he plays through hundreds of classics for the first time. New gamers can join in to learn more about these iconic works, and gaming veterans can revisit them from a fresh perspective. Will and Jonathan will do their best to walk you through all the classics without getting too sidetracked by tangents, bickering, or just generally being bad (with games).
We played Mega Man 3 which was released for NES in 1990. Our heroic blue robot returns with some new additions to his ever increasing arsenal. Does 3 feel any different from the first two entries? We discuss rapid fire bullets, anime influences, and how long a dog should be on screen.

Ultima V: Warriors of Destiny & Ultima VI: The False Prophet
We played Ultima V: Warriors of Destiny and Ultima VI: The False Prophet, which were released for PC in 1988 and 1990 respectively. In a surprise twist, we're finishing up the second Ultima trilogy by covering two games, to see just how far this RPG series has come. We discuss frustrating game loops, learning new languages, and the power of character portraits.

Big Walk
We played Big Walk which was released for PC and consoles in 2026. In a shocking turn of events, this multiplayer puzzle game is the first game from the 21st century to get a spot on the show. We discuss effective modes of communication, Australian accents, and how many cooks are too many cooks.
