When some new innovation helps turn a game into a big hit, it tends to spread across the industry like wildfire. Sometimes, these trends stick around to form part of the familiar patchwork of modern vidjagames. We’re not talking about THOSE trends, however; this week, Trav “TurboBison” Foster joins Matt and Mikel for a chat about design ideas that were once widely mimicked, but now functionally dead.

Question of the Week:

What’s your favorite cheat code of all time?

(This episode was recorded in advance, so we’ll collect answers to this and last week’s QOTW and read ’em on next week’s show.)
