Our Favorite Video Games from Generation X and Generation Y

Gen-Xer Chris McBrien and Millennial Yancy Eaton discuss their top 5 video games.

What could a Millennial and a Gen-Xer possibly have in common when it comes to video games? Not much, actually. This week, the guys take a trip down memory lane as they go through their list of their 5 favorite video games of all time. Most of Chris’ favorite video games were from the 1980’s when you had to actually go to the video arcade to play them (what can we say, he’s old!). However, as Chris points out, the video games from his generation paved the way for the games of today, even if the technology was substandard at times (to say the least).

If you ever spent time in a video arcade playing games like Donkey Kong, Pac-Man or Space Invaders, you’ll love this week’s episode!

During the “Fun With Yancy” segment, Chris quizzes Yancy on video games from years gone by. How much does a Millennial know about video games from the 1980’s? You’ll find out during this week’s segment.
