On today's episode, we continue to analyze this list of titles from the dawn of the new millennium, reflect on popular trends that no longer exist, and discuss a plethora of games that shaped our taste growing up.

As always, we conclude with the games we're playing (Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, X4: Foundations, Monster Hunter Wilds Beta, Life is Strange: Double Exposure).
