In this episode, Carlos & Brad devote the entire show to a request from listener @Arhei777.
The ask was to have the hosts list their favorite videogame stories of all time, but the discussion also covers what makes a good story and even what kinds of stories exist in games.
Also, the listeners were asked what THEIR favorite game stories are, and we offer up the results!

Brad Gallaway has been playing games since arcades were a thing and Atari was the new hotness. He's been at GameCritics since 2000. Currently, he's juggling editing duties, being a homeschooling dad, a devoted husband, and he does try to play a game once in a while.
Brad is a MOTU stan, loves Transformers, is on Marvel Puzzle Quest when nobody's looking, and his favorite game of all time is a toss-up between Mass Effect and The Witcher 3.
You can catch his written work here at GameCritics and you can hear him weekly on the @SoVideogames Podcast.
