The Games That Made Me
Welcome to my first venture into the world of podcasting! My name is Brendan Kelley and I hope you'll join me on my quest to delve deeply into the world of video games, particularly the games that have influenced my life the most. Along the way, I will explore what makes certain video games addicting, address the negative stigma that unfortunately still surrounds video games, share my own unique experiences with video games, and broaden my gaming horizons by trying out new titles.
