2024-11-23 18:21:04 +0000 UTCAgree with Ben. Having one main top 10 is more interesting for the listeners. As a patron, I'd like to see a unified top 10 with a podcast and then personal top 10s from everybody. Talking about the games and their rank is what makes GOTY fun. It's all pointless, it's just video games. Hopefully people would not get too frustrated if their game doesn't rank as high as they want. Especially if you have the personal top 10s. But the Giant Bomb game of the year format is still the gold standard. Fire Escape just finished theirs and it was incredibly entertaining and enjoyable.

2024-11-21 18:21:34 +0000 UTCI feel like we almost had the Forza Horizon of Flight Sim games from Microsoft. It was called Crimson Skies and I still miss it.

2024-11-21 03:41:40 +0000 UTCLook I like both MinnMax and Nextlander, but I come to Nextlander for Gen X pessimism. Who the fuck is this happy little bunny nobody asked for?
