The Play It Up Podcast is a retro gaming focused podcast mixed with some modern gaming chat and other nonsense. Play It Up Features 5 Aussies - Mike, Neil, Dennis, JM (James) and Shaun - who have been playing video games their whole lives and absolutely love them!
Hello you absolute legends and welcome to a new episode of the Play It Up Podcast! In this episode, JM and Shaun talk about pickups, what they have been playing, BPAC 2026 and Sony's plans to stop releasing physical media on their consoles.
This will be the last episode for a while as we have decided to go on an indefinite hiatus. We want to thank everyone for tuning in over the years and we will see you at some point in the future.
We hope you enjoy the episode.
