On this episode of The MinnMax Show, Ben Hanson is joined by Kelsey Lewin, Jacob Geller, and Kyle Hilliard to set the scene for MinnMax's game of the year debate. We share games we think more people should play before we record The Two Tens and recommend games that deserve more love this year. Leave a comment and let us know the games you think we should play before our debates. Then we're joined by NoClip's Danny O'Dwyer to talk about working directly with Valve to create the new documentary on the 25th anniversary of Half-Life and we answer a ton of great community questions submitted on Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/minnmax
