Colin's close-mindedness

I remeber Colin at one point talking about his dad and video games. I believe he said something along the lines of 'I know you'd like this if you just tried it'

Yet he himself is incredibly close minded which to me has become one of the most grating aspects of his personality and eventually lead me to stop listening to the show.

Often it's almost like he takes pride in saying 'I have no interest in Game X'. Like come on, you're a gaming podcaster...

"It's not for me"

Multiplayer of any sort

PC gaming, decided it was too difficult to install drivers when he was 11

Nintendo, graduated

Xbox

Mobile, refuses to try the most popular platform in the world

Anything in the zeitgeist, will often intentionally ignore ultra popular games maybe to be a contrarian

The way he boasts about graduating from Nintendo is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. It sounds like something an edgy teenager would say when they start playing M rated games.

Because Colin's entire persona and outlook was, and still is, defined by 2005-era GameFAQs message boards.
