Then we talk about a great parody of The Witness and what's happening to the developers of Pokémon GO.

    The Greatest Bethesda Game Of All Time Mar 18, 2021

    Episode Notes

    Welcome back to The MinnMax Show! On this week's episode we're joined by our former co-worker Matt Bertz (@mattbertz) to debate and rank Bethesda's best games. To coincide with Microsoft's acquisition and the release of so many classic Bethesda games released on to Game Pass, we randomized a bracket and debated the quality of Skyrim, Fallout 3, Doom Eternal, Dishonored, and more! Then we're joined by another former co-worker Javy Gwaltney (@iv_javy) to answer questions submitted on Patreon by the community and award the iam8bit question of the week!

    Episode Notes

    On this huge episode of The MinnMax Show, Ben Hanson, Jeff Marchiafava, Suriel Vazquez, Ana Diaz, Kyle Hilliard, and Leo Vader unpack the year's highlights by debating the nominees and winners for our categories. We talk about the biggest games of the year like Final Fantasy VII Remake, The Last of Us Part II, Ghost of Tsushima, Yakuza: Like a Dragon, Half-Life: Alyx, and more. Each category earns a Maximum winner and a Minimum winner, naturally. We stayed pretty vague, but we've noted in the timestamps below which games are very lightly spoiled in these discussions.

    E2Death Stranding, Luigi's Mansion, BlizzCon Reaction - The MinnMax Show Nov 07, 2019

    On this week's episode of The MinnMax Show, we pick Suriel's brain for his (spoiler-free) thoughts on Hideo Kojima's Death Stranding and Kyle talks about the ghastly horrors of Luigi's Mansion 3 on the Nintendo Switch. Then we unpack the internet's reaction toward BlizzCon 2019, trying to weigh excitement over Dibalo IV and Overwatch 2 with Blizzard's moves to crack down on free speech from players. We also lighten the mood again by talking about Sakurai's sweet showcase for Terry Bogard in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

    Welcome to The MinnMax Show! On the first real episode of the podcast, we talk about playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Afterparty from Night School Studios. After that, we talk about Kotaku's frustrating saga surrounding corporate ads via G/O Media and run down every game release that we missed since Kyle, JeffM, and Suriel lost their jobs at Game Informer. Then we make the show better by reading the community's wonderful questions before revealing our new closing segment.
