The MinnMax Show- The Game Of The Year Debate 2021 (Part 1)
🕑 Added 2021-12-22 19:01:00 +0000 UTCIt's time to build the list of our favorite games of 2021! On this big episode, Ben Hanson, Kyle Hilliard, Jeff Marchiafava, Leo Vader, Janet Garcia, and Sarah Podzorski create a list of Game of the Year contenders before they start whittling it down to The Two Tens. We debate Psychonauts 2, Death's Door, The Forgotten City, Bravely Default 2, and a whole lot more on this episode. We'll be back next week with a new episode to rank and finalize the list. If you enjoy the show, any help sharing it is appreciated!

Good discussion - #sarahpodz fan ☺️ - but I think there is a media link missing in podcast description - a link to finalised google doc, y’all (#Janet 😜) be talking about over the entire 3-episode arc? Think this is an unfortunate but big omission, to hear about, but not be able to see and download a copy of this exhaustive and hard-earned, podcast-defining final product, for the MinnMax ages. For posterity, in the MM History records at least.

I'm with Sarah and her disdain for Chariots of the Gods. In terms of a game with hacky writing trying to sound smart, I'd compare The Forgotten City to 12 minutes. My take is that Ratchet & Clank should be in the top 20. (I should be going to the mat for Tales of Arise of instead because its release and subsequent discussions of the Tales Of legacy got me thinking about what it means to review entries in long lived series.) My thinking came down to the fact that it doesn't seem fair to penalize a series' best outing for taking too many iterations to get there.

Goodness, what a great start to the GOTY debates. Love this crew most of all.
*Puts up fists.* Let's do this.
