Defining Duke, Episode 39: Xbox & Crystal Dynamics' Weird Relationship ft. Jeff Grubb (Video)

Lots of respect to both Colin and Jeff that this episode happened. I really enjoyed it!

Why are you calling a patron of the show a moron? Who cares what you think of him. You don’t need to come to the patron and disrespect other members of the community

John Lynch

The guy from Brazil who wrote about the trophies versus achievement debate is a moron. The issue of playing games strictly for digital rewards is the stupidest argument I’ve ever heard… And this is coming from someone who enjoys acquiring them through the natural course of play. Arguing that if you don’t see a platinum as being doable that you’ll completely whitewash a game is just dumb and you ain’t a dedicated game doing that shit. Even if the intent is for comedy, please stop.

I don't know much about Grubb as a person but seen some stuff I don't like. Anyway, he's great to listen to when discussing games so thank you Matty and Cog for arranging this. Great episode.

I respect LSM for allowing Matty and Cog to be able to operate how ever they choose and to have whomever they want as a guest. But I do feel if Jeff is going to be a guest we see come on the show every now and then that Colin and him need to have a SS+ episode addressing each other.

Colin allows people that don’t share his views to appear on. He often invites people he collides with online to his platform because Colin respects debate. That’s why.

Great episode, I hope Jeff and Colin, can move past everything in time. he would be an awesome guest for sacred symbols as well.

Thank you. Overall we respect all opinions here on DD even when they disagree with the guest choice. Based on the history between Colin/Jeff we are very thankful this episode still took place. 1) For Colin practicing what he preaches regarding hearing different perspectives on his LSM platform, plus allowing Matty& I to run our show as we choose. 2) For Jeff to still be willing to come on DD despite everything that took place on Twitter recently & having some ownership of his role w/Colin in the past. Things may never be perfect but we know GAMING is the common bond here. -Cog

Really loved the show love hearing different opinions. You all did a fantastic job.

I'm confused. Why is Jeff Grubb on here if hates Colin? Does he know he owns this company? Bit weird.

Paul Yates

A bit strange that Jeff is on here since he seems to have some real hate for Colin. He refuses to have a talk with Colin, but is happy to come on the Xbox show he owns? A bit weird. Since he's clearly cool with Cog and Matty, would make sense that he would try to give Colin a chance....

Great show and thought Jeff was an apt guest for the conversations at hand. This episode continued to fuel my excitement for TGAs this year. Geoff truly has built something special for the whole community to look forward to annually... although I, like Karak, resent that it excludes December games.

Yo you last stand media meet up in Butler but will there be a meeting on the other side of the US? Maybe LA or Portland OR?

Thomas Rice

This was my first time reading/listening to Grub outside of Twitter and he seems like a pretty cool, affable guy. A shame he and Colin don’t get along, but loved the rapport he and the Dukes seemed to have.

Johnny Questicles

First time! He was great.

Jeff was a great guest

George Hall

Always love to see Jeff and Cog get together. Also happy that Matty got to get to know Jeff better as I don't think he's podcasted with him before.

Lol was Jeff grub at a playground during this recording?
