Welcome to a special episode of The MinnMax Show! Ben Hanson is joined by MinnMax contributor and co-director of the Video Game History Foundation Kelsey Lewin, localization superstar (and Sarah's former boss) from 8-4 John Ricciardi, and the founder of Giant Bomb/his new Patreon Jeff Gerstmann. We talk about Jeff leaving Giant Bomb a bit out of the gate before diving in to how to preserve game history. Then we talk about the HD-2D remake of Square's Live A Live on the Nintendo Switch, Kelsey shares her thoughts on Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak and the rumored successor to Monster Hunter: World, and we unpack the new Bloomberg article about the healthy but slow development of Grand Theft Auto 6. Then we answer questions submitted on Patreon by the community and award the iam8bit question of the week! https://www.patreon.com/minnmaxWatch and share the video version of this episode here - https://youtu.be/fulvaAJmMocHere are some links/plugs mentioned in the show...https://www.patreon.com/jeffgerstmannhttp://enjoyyourgaming.com/https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/8-4-play/id393557569https://gamehistory.org/GTA 6 article - https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-07-27/gta-6-release-date-rockstar-cleans-up-image-after-employee-backlashHelp support MinnMax's supporters!https://www.iam8bit.com - Promo Code: CORNMONTHhttps://nordvpn.com/minnmax Promo Code: minnmaxTo jump to a particular discussion, check out the timestamps below...Jeff's GALOT - https://www.cbssports.com/wwe/news/vince-mcmahon-steps-down-as-wwe-ceo-and-chairman-during-investigation-of-alleged-misconduct/John's GALOT - https://youtu.be/yt4KG9ib8S4Hanson's GALOT - https://www.thedrive.com/news/44323/how-interstate-highways-get-their-numbersKelsey's GALOT - https://www.fanbyte.com/news/the-curious-case-of-nier-automatas-newly-discovered-church/Community GALOT - https://www.cartoonbrew.com/feature-film/genndy-tartakovskys-popeye-animatic-video-leaked-219062.htmlBecome a Game Champion by supporting MinnMax at the $50 tier on Patreon and lock in the game of your choice! https://www.patreon.com/minnmaxTeam Fortress 2 - DJDioGhost of Tsushima - ProcyonNumber6Earth Defense Force 2017 - ErinJBearJak and Daxter - SteveBWordle - PrettyGoodPrinting.comSpy Fox in: Dry Cereal - Clemens ZobelJourney - Spider_DanBioShock - ManiacThe Addams Family Pinball Machine (Bally, 1992) - Bob BuelElite Beat Agents - Divorced Cougar (Mike M)Snowboard Kids 2 - Tanner Borderlands - JawarhelloViva Piñata - NickfiloGod Hand - Patrick PolkThe Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker - Otsego12Star Wars: The Force Unleashed - Starkiller](https://www.patreon.com/minnmax/posts?filters%5Btag%5D=minnmax%20show)
