“The structure of the show is really tight, but it’s free enough to allow for banter and improvisational riffing. It never gets self indulgent because of that good structure always keeping them on the subject. The show opens with a “speed run“ where the hosts take turns or allow the guests to briefly recap the game. Sometimes this means the story sometimes it gets into the world building or gameplay, but basically they do a good job, setting the necessary context to understand their next section called “rants” were they just just go off on the games most notable features to them. This is what makes the subsequent discussions great is because they’re not going through a checklist where they analyze parts of the game the same every time they’re just analyzing the most notable features positive or negative. They get deeper into that discussion in the “game on” section. And finally they have “keep or delete“ where they imagine a kind of voyager, two spacecraft or permanent computer, hard drive or whatever and they have to decide whether this game should be one of the top one or 200 that represent all games. it’s just a truly great format that allows their personalities and opinions to shine, but allows the analysis to stay center stage. I truly hope they make some more of these.”

“I just finished listening to my first episode of 1UpsManship, the What Remains of Edith Finch episode, and I absolutely loved it! What Remains of Edith Finch is my favorite game ever, so much so that I'm writing a book about it. Michael loves the game. Adam says, and I fake quote: "Caleb...”Read full review »
