Plus the Top 10 train finally arrives at the absurdly detailed Mac station. Featuring Tim Spaeth, Chi Kong Lui, Brad Gallaway, Anne Lee, and Michael “Mac” Cunningham.

Cleveland native Tim Spaeth grew up in a happy household – a household with a father whose major client happened to be an Atari games distributor. This led directly to Tim's first nickname: "The kid who got Atari games before anyone else." Indeed, he knew Pac-Man and E.T. were colossal bombs weeks before the rest of the world, and the resulting celebrity brought him great pleasure.
Through the years every aspect of Tim's life has been touched by gaming. He mastered typing thanks to Space Quest, honed his poker skills on The Sierra Network, and learned to hate after a particularly traumatic game of Tecmo Super Bowl.
Today, Tim lives in Chicago with his three kids and strives to find that perfect balance between family, career, and Warcraft. He enjoys broadcasting, martial arts, rock and roll, growing and shaving his beard, singing show tunes to the homeless, and losing at Mario Kart to his lovely, talented, and amazing girlfriend.
In late 2008, Tim became the producer and host of the GameCritics.com Podcast, and he's thrilled to be bringing GameCritics' unique editorial voice to a brand new medium.

Thanks for another great show Tim.
Great list Mac. Makes me want to get FF4 on the Vita but all Vita games are so expensives…incl. Danganronpa and all FF games. Kind of a shock coming from PC.
Just to clarify about the general nature of being Australian gamers – which was poorly explained on the show – among the population we’re generally liberal, very easy going and relaxed, Irreverent, and with a stress free attitude that I think is pretty unique and widespread. Of course there some generational differences, where some – of not most – of the elderly are a bit more conservative, and for e.g., still bizarrely hold a level of deference to the fucking queen and royalty of England, as well as some social attitudes etc. But that is no way near as bad… Read more »
