GTA 6, Live A Live, Game History With Jeff Gerstmann Jul 28, 2022

Show notes

Welcome to a special episode of The MinnMax Show! Ben Hanson is joined by MinnMax contributor and co-director of the Video Game History Foundation Kelsey Lewin, localization superstar (and Sarah's former boss) from 8-4 John Ricciardi, and the founder of Giant Bomb/his new Patreon Jeff Gerstmann. We talk about Jeff leaving Giant Bomb a bit out of the gate before diving in to how to preserve game history. Then we talk about the HD-2D remake of Square's Live A Live on the Nintendo Switch, Kelsey shares her thoughts on Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak and the rumored successor to Monster Hunter: World, and we unpack the new Bloomberg article about the healthy but slow development of Grand Theft Auto 6. Then we answer questions submitted on Patreon by the community and award the iam8bit question of the week! https://www.patreon.com/minnmax
