I'm just reading the time stamps and am fascinated to find out what Triangle Strategy VR has done to earn a segment.

Tom Brien

When Ben read out The Real Two Tens he started at the number 20. Not sure what happened there, each of the two tens only goes as high as 10. Must be a glitch with your printer or something??

Andy

Great listen so far - I hope Leo plays Prey Mooncrash!! It was super divisive when it came out but it is so good (better than deathloop!)

DiggingTrapHoles

the cohorts are just the best. everyone is so funny! love the content keep it up

ran

Got triangle strategy the day it came out back in 2022 and played it obsessively for months. The gameplay is awesome, cant recommend it enough.

Boogie

There are several game types on COD 4 Blackout, Duos is dead, no one is ever really playing it, if you get at least 18 people, Nine teams of 2 it will start a game, and then it takes like 10 minutes for the game to start.

Nate Marshall

I love blackout, I am forever disappointed that warzone overtook it, I think blackout is so much better. I volunteer to play with you Ben to try out some of my 5 year old strategies 😅

Nate Voris

"Get this in size REDACTED" is one of the funniest/most relatable things I've heard on the pod 😂

David Edgar

I think "twin stick" is a reference to airplanes that have two sticks for flight controls.

David Campbell

Leo should stream some Shogun Showdown… I’ve been thoroughly addicted to that game, I’d like to see his approach

Lilly S

I'd like it on the record that Haley is amazing! Also should we consider having the community Two Tens on the MinnMax website next to the MinnMax Two-Tens for comparison? Or maybe just post it somewhere to see how unique the two lists are?

Will K.

"Eyes on Me" by Faye Wong from FF8 was HUGE amongst the Chinese and Japanese folks I know (back in high school)

Will K.

Also regarding typos: look up the Wicked toy box fiasco. Very recent and MAJOR f-up

Annie Paladino

So, that frozen yogurt place is actually in Shoreline, just north of Seattle, I believe. It's my neighborhood frozen yogurt place. I've been there at least a dozen times. *And I have never noticed that the name is Foyolicious!* Thanks, now I will lose sleep over this too.

Andres

One of the original borderlands trailers used "ain't no rest for the wicked" by cage the elephant before it became a huge radio hit. Maybe it helped with discovery? Maybe it was already on people's radar and was going to be a radio hit already? I don't know but it's the only time I can think of hearing a song I associated with a video game then it being on the radio some time later. It's also not technically a "video game song" but I can't think of an original work for a video game ever being on the radio that wasn't a segment explicitly about video games Although real emotion from FFX-2 is a bop and deserved to be on the radio

Mark M

Great episode as usual! Unfortunately the timestamps are incorrect, they seem to have been made for the ad version and not updated for the patreon version. They are correct until where the Acorns ad would have been, except the patreon feed doesn't have ads. So it throws the timestamps off the rest of the episode.
