We’ve made it to a full twenty episodes of Make Me A Gamer! To celebrate, this week TMan and HarveyZ are sticking it to the corporate overlords of gaming!

Episode 18 – Nanomanagement (Ft. Slim as Special Guest)

On today’s episode of Make Me A Gamer, HarveyZ is off living the jet-setting corporate lifestyle, so TMan has brought in a special guest by the name of Slim! While Slim is more of a regular gamer than HarveyZ, he tends to favor older games. So he and TMan delve into his favorite games and why he likes them – the topics range from Starcraft to Descent to Masters of Orion. There’s also discussion about the Civilization series and Age of Mythology and its fifteen-years-later expansion. We hope you enjoy the special guest host!

Bonus Episode – The Fabled Episode Zero

So TMan overestimated his ability to edit a full episode after returning from his vacation, but never fear! He’s not going to let a Tuesday go by without an update! So here’s your first bonus content from the Make Me A Gamer crew: the much talked about, long-awaited Episode Zero! That’s right, you get to hear TMan and HarveyZ’s humble beginning, before they even knew what their podcast was going to be called. The scheduled episode will be coming later this week, but for now enjoy this look back into our past!

Episode 14 – Monkey in the Box

On this week’s episode of Make Me a Gamer, TMan and HarveyZ forego topical news to discuss some games they’ve been playing. HarveyZ has another XCOM 2 update, and TMan’s been playing Hitman 2 and a mobile game called Piffle. We also talk a little bit about Lady Gaga playing Bayonetta before diving into a very spoiler-filled discussion of The Stanley Parable, which both TMan AND HarveyZ had a chance to play before the podcast! (This episode was recorded November 27th.)

NOTE: For about thirty seconds at the 37 minute mark of the podcast, you may hear some audio disturbance. Do not panic, do not adjust your set: it was part of the podcast that was unable to be edited out as TMan is not a professional audio editor yet. There are a few other audio errors within the podcast but hopefully not as noticeable.
