Customer Reviews
A big fave
This podcast is full of such great conversations & insight about the gaming industry, any success is well deserved
Not worth your time
Austin Wintory is the only reason this podcast is worth a listen post Troy Bakers exit. Austin is a fantastic & fascinating host with great insights into the games industry. And that is the only positive thing worth saying about this podcast Just listened to the episode where Alannah & Mike ridiculed those who expressed displeasure with Joanna Dark’s appearance in the new Perfect Dark stating that anyone who didn’t like it “probably has never been close to a woman.” As a female gamer, which according to Alannah & Mikes' standards should not only make me one of the leading authorities on the appearance of female characters in video games but also one of the only relevant authorities, I could not be more disappointed in Joanna Darks watered-down new look as a long time Perfect Dark fan. Mike & Alannah are overly political clowns. If you’re looking for a podcast that just talks video games without shoving other kinds of bull down your throat - look elsewhere.
These four people make a difference
Listening to this podcast every week or every time that they post a podcast is fantastic. They don’t know how much they have a positive affect on people and how much of a difference they actually make. It’s truly amazing. I hope this podcast goes on for the next several years because they do a phenomenal job without question.
