The Top 5 series returns with one of the most personal topics yet: favorite video game franchises.

Chewie and Pip look back on decades of gaming and reveal the franchises that had the biggest impact on their lives. The discussion spans classic PC gaming, Nintendo favorites, modern cinematic adventures, open-world sandboxes, and some of the most influential series in gaming history.

Along the way, the hosts share stories from college, memories of early multiplayer gaming, and the titles that consumed thousands of hours over the years. Whether you're a fan of Diablo, Doom, Warcraft, Zelda, Mario, Final Fantasy, Grand Theft Auto, Batman: Arkham, Hitman, or The Last of Us, there's plenty here for gamers of every generation.

The episode also marks four years of podcasting together and includes discussions about Star Wars, Ghostbusters, summer plans, and Pip's appearance on SiriusXM's Tom Petty Radio.
