GOAT Can’t wait to listen to this while I hit my weed pipe. Let’s go

Luke Knockton

Fell to my knees when saw Gene was back

TheWubbz

Fell to my knees and pissed myself when I saw the GOAT in the thumbnail

They Now Call Me UNC.

Hey Gene, all the content creators I follow cite NatetheHate. There is no escaping his leaks!

Jason Bolla

Aww Leon, that's what I wanted to name mine when I was younger. Congrats Dustin.

An optimistic Bears fan

Lean mean gene machine on the pod?!? sweet. LSM has been missing the goat and its a treat whenever he pops in.

Matt H

“Why do you listen to a guy named Nate the Hate?” is actually such a valid question lmao

Pan Ic

Good from Gene. Is he out of games media now or did the paper merge all media?

Andy Carroll

Amazing episode, was hard not to smile the whole time hearing Gene’s voice again and getting the news about Dustin, Holly, and the little dude!

The Incredible Shulk

Can you skip Xenoblade 2? I know nothing about this series, but based on what Gene said…. 2 seems like a skip. Are these like Final Fantasy where they aren’t usually connected?

BigDumbStupidIdiot

The first half of Xenoblade 2 is a bit rough but the 2nd half, especially the ending, is sublime. I'm not going to spoil things BUT to get the most enjoyment out of Xenoblade 3, you should play Xenoblade 2.

Gene Park

pretty much this. 2 just struggles on onboarding players.

Your Boi Nicky V

Did that write in really bitch that Persona is on Game Pass? How does it affect you? 😂😂😂

Jack Johnson

The ever rotating chair of this is the greatest game I’ve ever played 😂

Derek Alcott

I agree with Gene on NatetheHate. He can do whatever he wants but I still don't like games being spoiled. I know that I can block him and mute him. The unfortunate thing however is some of my favorite podcasts talk about his leaks too. Like the Spawncast talks about his leaks sometimes since Nate has been on the show.

Derek Alcott

Yes, it's unfortunate that some of my favorite podcasts talk about his leaks. The Spawncast for example.

Walk Forward Cutscene

Completely agree with Gene’s comparison of Absolution to First Light

Lil Jimmy420

Miss and luv you Gene!!!!!!!!!!

Bogey

Good to see you Gene. You should hop on some Sacred streams. I love you and Colin together

Lunar Tear

The Colin-ism that Gene was referring to is "production per square inch."

Izzy Smalls

Gene asks "why do you listen to somone named Nate the Hate?" But frequently referrences a pos like Asmingold like he has anything of value to say.

The Incredible Shulk

Ended up buying Xenoblade 1 for Switch 2 last night. I’m actually surprised at how nice it looks and plays. Story seems interesting so far, too. I’m only 2 hours in

Aaron

You don’t like Nintendo games being spoiled you mean?

Walk Forward Cutscene

I’ve fallen off XB2 multiple times, but it finally started to click during my most recent attempt and I’ll go finish it up with the Switch 2 update

Beef Burka

Now I feel old. I had absolutely no idea who "The Weekend" is and had to make a mental note to look him up when I got out of my car, where I was listening to the podcast.

Beef Burka

What do the people who leak things to people like him and Tom Warren and Schreir get out of it?

Stephen

Gene! Thank you for coming to Colin’s defense on the Concord development cost debate. I was super annoyed on how the talking heads responded to the $400M report. All of them have reported $400M price tags since then. It honestly completely undermined their integrity imo and people need to call it out.

Walk Forward Cutscene

He mentioned Asmongold because he doesn’t agree him that often. It’s a rhetorical point. Stop getting triggered because you heard Voldemort’s name and use some basic thinking skills.

C

This was such a good episode, Gene how the fuck do you play so many games, work and attend all these events?! Do you sleep at all bro? Great to have you back on the show, a monthly check in with Gene is a must, always brings so much to the show.

Josephine

Is Brad waiting to be fired? He barely talks, always afraid to have his own opinion about something, barely engages… So many silences after Park gives a perspective about something. And if he does say a word it’s the most generic, bland, vanilla impression impossible to follow up on. Bizarre.
