Summary

Episode Notes

Welcome back to The MinnMax Show! On this week's episode we're joined by our former co-worker Matt Bertz (@mattbertz) to debate and rank Bethesda's best games. To coincide with Microsoft's acquisition and the release of so many classic Bethesda games released on to Game Pass, we randomized a bracket and debated the quality of Skyrim, Fallout 3, Doom Eternal, Dishonored, and more! Then we're joined by another former co-worker Javy Gwaltney (@iv_javy) to answer questions submitted on Patreon by the community and award the iam8bit question of the week! You can win a prize and help make the show better by supporting us on Patreon and leaving a question! https://www.patreon.com/minnmax
