I’ve been listening to Kinda Funny since it was the GameOverGreggy Show, and they were still with IGN. I don’t catch every episode and fall in and out of watching/listening, but whenever I come back, I feel like I pick up right off where I left off. I can always rely on the crew to put out an enjoyable episode to watch or listen to. After 10+ years of following them, I look forward to the next 10+ years.

I can’t trust anything they say as they’re too close to developers and industry big shots. They have that IGN in their blood where everything is an 8+/10 because “ya don’t wanna upset your buddy Todd Howard.” Listening to Greg still talk about chasing Platinums is so pathetic. You’re literally the only person in the world who cares. I prefer to stick with jeff gerstmann, nextlander, etc. I’ll play this as background noise at 2x speed, but I’ll tell you about that later. Now let’s get to todays topics. “Topsipsistipilsofisppogregsuckstopsp”

Early in 2024, this show changed formats from a weekly podcast to a daily one. While this new direction started strong, a lot of more recent content has suffered for it. Previously, there were many different shows with an individual focus coming from the KF crew, making the shows more memorable. Or maybe I skipped the ones that weren’t because they weren’t showing up in my podcast feed. Either way, the content created in general has become less appealing to me. Three shows within a week on one game? Kinda crazy, in my opinion. Especially when it’s exclusive to a single platform. A predictions episode for some press conference one day, a recap of the conference the next? With no breathing room, it leaves no space for one of these shows to exist except in that moment. It expires in the span of the day. Ultimately, much of the content has become forgettable. Disposable. It exists, but it’s of the moment, those moments are fleeting, and it’s on to the next thing. What is the solution? Better, more meaningful topics. Trying less to be of the moment and more forward (or maybe even backward) looking.

I love you podcast it makes me laugh

Just listened to the space marine 2 review. They have two guys reviewing the game both didn’t even put a combined 20 hours into it, missed points on the multiplayer. The operation missions. The skill trees. The classes. The weapons. This seems to be a constant with them rushed reviews. If you want a real reviewer and a real podcast listen to ACG.

It’s easy to see they’re running out of ideas. If the content isn’t about a game itself, then what are we doing? Also I never trust a first impressions topic. The journalistic integrity is completely lost.

I miss when gamescast was about video game reviews and previews. These movie rants, how to be a streamer, ranking consoles on looks type of stuff isn’t it. Maybe going daily with this podcast was a bad idea.

They guys put out great work and content. And I get it is a business. But the amount they say super chat in is getting absolutely obnoxious. They do not need to start every story with super chat this or super chat that. They said it 5 times before getting to story number one the other day. It’s becoming very grating. I listen to a fair amount of podcasts and none of them say superchat as often.. it’s a terrible feature that took away audience interaction and placed it behind a pay wall.

I got hooked listening to their episode about Hades II. When I heard “I’m already head over heels” I knew I found the right podcast

Avoid these giggling pathetic goobers. Especially Greg and blessing. Y’all should be ashamed of yourselves.

Just some commie, liberal losers

I have a landscaping business and work outside all day. Listen to Video Game Podcast more than music or anything else. Pretty sure you guys are my favorite. Always entertaining and everyone on the cast balances each other out nicely. Just found the other channel that has daily updates. I am super excited you guys always help an hour to go by quicker!

Unpretentiously highfalutin.

Starts to kind of feel like IGN. Definitely recommend other gaming podcasts that actually play their games, like ‘The Summit’, or ‘Gaming Illuminaughty.’

Please give Blessing a JRPG show and get home off the normal shows. His takes are always terrible.

I’m only interested in Xbox content. I don’t need or want games I can’t play on my Xbox. PlayStation or Nintendo content does not interest me. Now I just have to remove episodes every time they are pushed to me.

I love the everyday format. The fact that there’s always a different topic is great. If I don’t really resonate within the first couple minutes with the topic I can skip and come back the next day. I love the different voices. Blessing and Andy are great. Obviously everyone else is amazing but I look forward to whenever Blessing and Andy are on.

I feel like this podcast has turned into the very website they left, IGN. They promised they would never give review scores yet they do now. Every episode is littered with ad after ad. While I completely understand why you need ads no other gaming podcast that I listen to gives as many ads as this one. They get invited to all these events, flown out and catered to and it just seems like it would be impossible to be impartial after that. Don’t get me wrong I still love all the people involved as I’ve been listening to them for a very long time but this started out as a smaller independent thing and it just doesn’t feel that way anymore. I love that they’ve gotten bigger and have reached success, but there are better ways of doing it.

Smart, funny, knowledgeable and relatable. Definitely my go to video game podcast!

Not a fan. How could you be playing rise of the ronin over dragons dogma 2. You want a poor man’s ghost with more monotony than a Ubisoft open world game.

Listened to these guys hemp and haw for getting to play a game before the rest of us and literally said our job is great but we’re gonna wait for other reviews before we decide to play the game we are previewing. Why bother? Couldn’t pass up the empty content incentive. Not meaningful shows, just checking boxes. These guys aren’t trend setters, they are bougie followers.

Oof that dragons dogma 2 impressions gamescast was rough. Clearly no one had spent substantial time with the game and the video/episode was rushed out to get views and fulfill sponsorships. I started listening to KF during their Anthem gamescast, where I felt like they gave the game enough time to really appreciate what was special about it and what was lacking, vs many other outlets putting out more lazy coverage. I’ll probably unsubscribe now, as other outlets like MinnMax are just doing a better job covering games without the need to over-monetize their audience to keep things running.

good enough if you want to listen to the most 80 IQ guys of all time talk about video games. way too obsessed with the number rating.

Simply because one person has a opposing belief, they leave a game out. You don’t have agree with someone to admit that something they created was actually good.

I am giving two stars as I do think there is some can be some entertainment found and certain people are worth listening to. Not bad to have on background I guess. Most of what you’ll find here is either annoying or plain bad. Greg is especially guilty of the annoying aspect with yelling and just being outright hard to repeatedly hear in this podcast. Stop yelling and be more refined in your approach. Your listeners will appreciate it. There is also a question of objective vs. subjective. This is a fuzzy line and all reviews are inherently subjective at least to some degree. What pains me here is that the reviewers seem to either avoid objective aspects entirely, or they get buried. I listened to the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet review and it took them forever to mention the performance issues and one reviewer even downplayed it by saying “eventually I just got used to it”. This is unacceptable and gives people an unrealistic impression of a game that should be much better. Honestly, I hope Game Freak is pressured to do better with the release of Palworld. Their games are stale and I’m honestly shocked that Nintendo allowed it to be released in that state. Also, Greg is especially guilty here with giving 2023 GOTY to Starfield. I’m sorry, but that game is objectively worse than other games this year by a long shot. Baldurs Gate 3, which didn’t even get a full review, unless it’s behind a paywall, was rated much lower and that game is objectively better in almost every area. Starfield was lacking quality content, polish, and quality of life pieces and felt like a game that was made in 2010. I played for about 10 hours and couldn’t bring myself to finish it. Just utterly boring and so many loading screens. And this is coming from someone who beat Fallout 3 & 4 and Skyrim with 100’s of hours of playtime. Also, Sonic Frontiers got a 4/5. I mean…just yikes! Oh, and I listened to some of their Redfall impressions and just…no. It took me awhile to put my finger on what made me decide against this podcast, but that is it. If you are looking for a review that will truly tell you if a game is worth your time, don’t look here.

The entire Kinda Funny group, especially Greg has no right to EVER call himself a journalist again! Influencer absolutely but nothing more than that. Any guise of journalistic integrity need not apply since you are not journalist's after this. I could make an argument you never did truly understand the point of what journalistic integrity means. I am of course not talking about the human windfall of this, that is horrible that a people's personal info was leaked and that is not what I am talking about and most would agree that this should not be discussed. Everything else should be fair game! It's your platform and cover what you want but don't pretend your not covering the Insomniac leak for any other reason to protect/CYA with your relationship so it doesn't harm your access to Sony! Anybody getting onto others for covering the leak, especially real journalists is disgusting and should be ashamed. You had no problem covering the Nintendo, Capcom, ESA or GTA leaks so you don't get to pick and choose now without losing your integrity. YouTuber, streamer, podcaster, influencer sure but that's where it ends, journalist never again no matter how bad some of you want to try and hang onto that.

Is there any way we can get a top Nintendo switch games list? And maybe a PS5 list and a XSX list as well.

That Greg miller audibly inhales after every sentence. It’s like nightmare asmr.

Mike sounds very much like a “how do you do fellow kids” boomer that was just given a second hand last gen console from one of his kids and then Barrett and blessing sound like they’re doing their best to keep the Colombian drug trade in business. They word vomit a thousand words a minute with no pauses and recap every single statement the second it’s finished. None of these people belong in this space.

Was my favorite content. Can’t trust their reviews at all. They just shill their friends and paid stuff.

Greg miller is not funny and he brings nothing of any content to show. Trash 🗑️

Why do Blessing and Greg say “right?” After almost every statement?? It’s insane the last pod I listened to they said it a combined 84 times in a hour. Not every statement needs to end in a question guys.

Where is the. Hog warts legacy review? I’m unfollowing

I love this show, particularly the review episodes and the predictions episodes.

I came across Kind Of Funny earlier this year and I figured I’d give the show a shot since I’m always looking for more video game podcasts to listen to. At first everyone seemed interesting and entertaining to listen to. But as time’s gone on I’ve had less and less interest listening to the show. I actually had to sit down and think of why as I was so into the show at first. And it boils down to how fake some of the hosts sound. When some of them talk about games they’ve played or things they’re interested in, the way they talk sounds less natural and sounds more like they’re trying to give this journalistic review of what ever it is they’re talking about. Others talk like those annoying YouTube and Twitch streamers where you half expect them to start saying “Make sure to follow, like, and hit that subscribe button!” or “ Yo, it’s ya boi [insert name], with my crew and we got these good vibes going today!”. For example, when ever they have Snow-bike Mike on, he always sounds like he’s in streaming mode (I know he’s a Twitch streamer) and the way he talks sounds like the same baloney all of the other Twitch streamers say when they’re trying to grow their channel with trying to stay trending with the latest slang despite being probably double his audience’s age. Sorry guys. I tried to like your content, but it’s really not for me.

…..until Blessing arrived. He just says words without actually saying anything of substance and depends on what other reviewers say about a game instead of judging it for himself. Janet hates anything that’s popular, she’s awful.

Love Tim, but everyone else is Sony and Xbox fanboys. Greg is anti Nintendo/Xbox/PC. Paris, Greg and Mike crap on Switch. Switch is outselling all of them. Bring on some Nintendo people. (Evident by dedicated xbox and sony shows but nothing for Nintendo). Sorry you guys are not balanced.

Greg is miserable and it shows in the podcast

And I mean that in the best way. I love coming to your podcast to keep up with all things gaming. As a person who listens to podcasts all the time at work, you’re one of the better podcasts, and better ways to get my news on gaming so I know where to look in what little free time I have. Thank you for all you do! Keep up the good work and game on!

Great podcast i listen daily and it gets me hyped for upcoming games and consoles. Thanks for all the hard work. Love getting all the nerdy news I need to know about.

During ur multiverses episode u mentioned the game called vampires survive or how ever u name it reminded me of a mobile game called survivor.io. If u guys like the vampire game u will love the survivor.io. pls try it!!!!!

Their mascot “Cool” Greg stalked a woman

Just done with everything KF. Negative attitudes all around. I don’t understand how they can do this for a living and hate everything they review. Oh yeah but somehow the last PlayStation state of play is 5 stars lol what a joke.

Keep it going everyone!! This is an awesome video game podcast with relevant information and good takes.

Kinda Playstation Gamecast reviews Halo

I’ve been listening to y’all for years but today I accidentally listened at half speed and at first I thought y’all were drunk then i realized. Anyway keep it coming

It’s hard to believe how much the quality of this podcast plummeted.

A masterclass of Kinda Funny Podcasting by Tim. Never change.

Nothing to say here

Hey cast & crew of Kinda Funny! I love listening to the podcast on a weekly basis. I love the flurry of random topics that show up. My only con to this show is I think Tim needs to tone down the Xbox bashing. I think the rest of the crew lately has been holding him more accountable. For example Blessing and team disagreed with him on the Xbox E3 press conference. The only reason why I bring it up (because I actually think Tim is really a great videogame journalist) is when he starts talking about anything Xbox, it can derail the show and kill the vibe. Which I don’t understand the Greg Miller hate or calling him a PlayStation fan boy, he’s a pretty big advocate for what Xbox has been doing.
