Welcome back to the off-week BATT content! This week's episode is a return to our series of The Games That Made Us. This episode is about The Omega Virus and how it impacted Mark as a child, what influences it had on his love of themes and gaming, and just generally celebrating how far ahead of the rest of the industry it was at the time of it's release. Mark's copy of The Omega Virus is almost a sacred item in his hagiography because of how much it really did influence him as a person and how the effects of playing that game solo for so many years really did shape him to be the person he is now. If you've played it before, then have fun walking down memory lane. If you've not, then get hyped about it and the eventual new release that Restoration Games is working on. Thanks for listening to this episode and we'll catch you next week for Episode 13. \
