There will never be a bigger episode of The MinnMax Show. On this special episode, Ben Hanson, Kelsey Lewin, Leo Vader, Jeff Marchiafava, Sarah Podzorski, Haley MacLean, and Janet Garcia unpack some love for the new farming sim game Fields of Mistria that Sarah has been working on as a marketing/social media manager. It's good, we swear! Then Leo Vader talks about jumping into the alpha for Splitgate 2 and we all shed some love for Cat Quest 3. After that, Leo talks about his wild trip to San Francisco to play with a full VR treadmill called the Virtuix Omni One. Then we get serious about podcasting and invite a gigantic crew of former Game Informer editors to answer community questions and reminisce about the magazine closing after 33 years. On that panel we have Adam Biessener, Andrew Reiner, Andy McNamara, Ben Reeves, Bryan Vore, Dan Tack, Dan Ryckert, Elise Favis, Ben Hanson, Javy Gwaltney, Jeff Marchiafava, Joe Juba, Kimberley Wallace, Leo Vader, Matt Helgeson, Matt Bertz, Nick Ahrens, Tim Turi, Jason Oestreicher, Wade Wojcik, and that's only a fraction of the folks who worked at Game Informer throughout the years! There are too many stories to go around, so thanks so much for bearing with all of us as we parade down memory lane. We also answer questions submitted on Patreon by the community and award the iam8bit question of the week!

MinnMax's Ben Hanson, Kyle Hilliard, and Leo Vader are joined by Game Informer's lead video producer Alex Van Aken, associate editor Marcus Stewart, and associate editorCharles Harte to unpack all of their thoughts, feelings, and insight into the end of Game Informer. GameStop shut down the beloved magazine after 33 years last Friday, this episode is about celebrating the final years of the magazine and sharing as much insight as we can without risking anybody's severance package. This episode also contains the final episode of The Game Informer Show inside of it. Then we get to some great community questions for even more reminiscing. We will be creating bonus content with these folks here at MinnMax and paying them, so thanks for all of the support on Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/minnmax

On this big episode, Ben Hanson, Leo Vader, and Kyle Hilliard are joined in the studio by MinnMax video editor and Game Informer associate editor Charles Harte to talk about an eventful week in the game industry. We touch on the official confirmation that the Switch 2 will be revealed before the end of Nintendo's calendar year before diving into the big news of the week: Microsoft making the brutal choice to shut down four of its game studios, including Arkane Austin (Dishonored, Prey, Redfall) and Tango Gameworks (Hi-Fi Rush, The Evil Within Series). We also talk about games we've been playing and enjoying like Hades 2 from Supergiant Games, Animal Well, Little Kitty Big City and our full thoughts on Funko Fusion (and its depiction of The Thing) and Batman: Arkham Shadow in VR. Then we answer questions submitted on Patreon by the community and award the iam8bit question of the week!

Welcome back to The MinnMax Show! On the first episode for 2024, Ben Hanson (currently remote from Puerto Rico) is joined by Sarah Podzorski, Jacob Geller, Kyle Hilliard, and Leo Vader to talk about the surprising games we all played over holiday the break. We dive into the timelessness of Chrono Trigger, Leo gushes more about The Finals, and Sarah explains why House Flipper 2 is better than the first. Oh, also Kyle talks about catching up on the great games of 2023 by playing Star Wars Jedi: Survivor and Final Fantasy XVI. We also run down the "objective" list of the best games from 2023 by reading off the MinnMax community's Two Tens, or technically their Top 20 list that's been hive-minded from nearly 500 voters. Then we answer questions submitted on Patreon by the community and award the iam8bit question of the week! You can win a prize and help make the show better by supporting us on Patreon and leaving a question! https://www.patreon.com/minnmax

Welcome back to The MinnMax Show! We are, for the first time, flying without the Ben wind beneath our wings. So if the podcast sounds a little different, that's why - we're still navigating the hosting and technical sides of this transition, and we appreciate your patience!

Host Kelsey Lewin is joined by Jacob Geller, Jeff Marchiafava, and Jenna Stoeber to discuss June's sudden Nintendo Direct and the many Mario games that caught their eye, plus Mythforce and Headbangers Rhythm Royale. Jacob and Kelsey delve into the ways Final Fantasy XVI draws from Game of Thrones, while Jeff and Jenna languish praise on the Hellraiser vibes in Diablo 4.

And of course we tackle some challenging questions from the audience about cards and characters. As always, you say "jump" we say "how many times has humanity jumped through the span of time?"
