Hey folks! It’s me Jamie Barker, and this is my new podcast, Fake Gamer History Project. It’s a show about the history of the real video games we know and love like: Helkara, Cosmo Jr, Hunchee De Muncho, and even Little Doodz. But it’s not just a history lesson. It’s fun too. New episodes will be out every Thursday and together we will finally answer the question: are video games art?
