Episode 9 – John Carpenter’s It (The Spooky Spoiler Episode)

We have a special Halloween treat this week for Make Me A Gamer! TMan and HarveyZ accidentally recorded a semi-spooky themed episode! After talking about our experience with simulation games (including early experiences with “titillating” games and mods) we dive into talk about horror movies and what we like and don’t like about them. TMan and HarveyZ also get into spoiler territory as we have differing opinions on them. (Spoilers: we spoil some fictional events that are 10+ years old in this podcast.) We also talk about some scary, spooky video games and end with a little bit of talk about the Secure, Contain, Protect wiki. (This episode was recorded September 29th.)

Episode 4: Internal Taco Trucks

On this week’s episode of Make Me A Gamer, TMan and HarveyZ briefly discuss the Overwatch League expansion teams and Valve’s upcoming card game Artifact. Then we experiment a little bit with format as TMan tells HarveyZ the story of the rise and fall of 38 Studios. (This episode was recorded September 8th.)

**NOTE** There was a minor recording error for this episode and we lost about 20-30 seconds of audio at the beginning of the 38 Studios discussion. Thankfully, it was just me explaining how Curt Schilling named his studio 38 Studios after his number from when he was a pitcher. So there you go – that’s all that was missing and hopefully the edit doesn’t seem to abrupt. Thanks for listening!

Episode 3: You’ve Gotten Shivved, Too?!

In this episode of Make Me A Gamer, TMan and HarveyZ discuss the controversies leading up to the Spider-Man game along with a few games they’ve been playing like Into The Breach and Candy Crush but with Vikings. And Harvey Z tells a story about an early experience with an arcade tough guy. (This episode was recorded September 1st.)
