Who?
Dan Ryckert (ex-Giant Bomb, now WWE/Twitch),
Mary Kish (ex-Gamespot, now Twitch Head of Community Marketing)
Mike Mahardy (Gamespot)
What is it?
An 8 hour game of the year deliberation with lots of fun categories and decent chat with passionate games-playing folk. Remember the old style Giant Bomb GOTY discussions? Yeah, it's pretty much that.
Why should I care?
Look, you like games, right? I mean, you're currently browsing the internet's most esteemed gaming forum, so I assume you like games. Well, this is some people talking about games, celebrating the good ones, trashing the bad ones, and just basically having a good time. Besides, what else have you got going on?
Why are they called Fire Escape?
Yeah, I dunno.
Did they mention [insert your favorite game here]?
Yes, they did actually. They said it was really bad and that anyone who likes it is a big smelly face with no friends. Sorry about that.
Where can I watch this 8 hour extravaganza?
I prefer my podcasts to be audio only, buddy!
No problem - I've split the audio from the video into 5 seperate episodes, just for you:
Link to folder with all episodes
Oh, so it's like the old Giant Bomb GOTY podcasts?
Yeah, pretty much. I said that earlier. Were you not listening? Your 8th grade English teacher was totally right about you.
Enough with the teasing, what were the top 10 video games according to Fire Escape?
Are you a corporate shill getting paid for promoting this?
Yes. I recently quit my lucrative job in the oil industry so I could make internet posts about Twitch streams.
So, you going to go now or what?
Yeah, I guess. Happy christmas GAF, you beautiful bastards.
