The whole crew has a great dynamic and I love listening to you guys hang out. In a recent episode, Alex mentioned being getting weepy at the end of Before Your Eyes and it got me remembering all the times games have gotten me choked up over the years. What are some specific lines of dialogue from games that \u201ccued the waterworks\u201d for you guys (or at least made the room very dusty)? – Nathan Kasten (Email)<\/span><\/span><\/div>\nGI Crew, out of all the games you know that are coming next year, what do you expect your Game of the Year to be? – SavoyPrime (Discord)<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
