Thank you for watching today's episode! We had a bit too much fun recording this one, since we're talking about a game that means a lot to both of us. We'd like to thank Senpie again for drawing this episode's art, who can be found on YouTube and Instagram! https://www.youtube.com/@senpieye

We ran into a couple of odd issues with this episode, where a couple chunks of it were lost during recording so there's a few abrupt cuts. Still, it's listenable!

Ah yes one of the best multiplayer game ever. Had so much fun back in the day
Unfortunately I am not one of those people who grew up with timesplitters 2, despite having a PS2, but it's been an enjoyable podcast nonetheless. Also Oh no, I want to get off mr. Balan's wild ride.
Timesplitters Future Perfect was the first "Proper" fps multiplayer game I played. Sniping the AI across Siberia or ramming the jeep into the doors was always great fun
To answer the question, 29-year old here, I've player a bit of TimeSplitters 2 in my youth, mostly at other peoples places, as I was the kid whose parents did not like gaming, and as such, had no consoles at home.
I miss this trilogy so much. I spent so much time Playing both 2 and Future Perfect. Right now I just wish we got a proper re-release of the trilogy.
The arcade version of Time Splitters is really only exposure to the game I've had
