VS Node 11: The Game of the Games of the Decade

vs. Node Podcast

VS Node turns into a game show to help Eddie, Jason, Dan, Creighton, and Jeff decide the Games of the Decade.

Dan Crabtree, Creighton DeSimone, and Jeffrey Matulef join Eddie Inzauto and Jason Fanelli to play “The Game of the Games of the Decade.” The group narrows down an initial list of 61 titles released between 2000 and 2009 — one by one — to determine a top 10, top 5, and number 1 game of the last decade. A thorough and fun discussion kicks off the new decade with a bang, and our biggest show yet.
