Spectator Mode Gaming Podcast

Send us a text

Welcome back to another episode of the Spectator Mode Podcast, where we discuss the gaming industry and all the things that come with it. In this episode, we get a bit serious as we discuss the differences between having a good year in gaming and having a good year for gamers. Karl is back from PAX AUS 2024 and he gives us the rundown, as well as his meet-up with Square Enix's Yoshi-P. We aren't done being serious as we point at the countless GOTY shows and ask why expansions aren't included in the fun. That and more on this episode!
This is a mature podcast and we do use adult language... we curse a bit, but that's it.

So, pull up your chair, get some popcorn, and enjoy the blend of chaos and fu that only we can bring to you.
