Introducing Colin's Last Stand: Side Quest

I'll throw my hat into the ring among those that are glad to hear about your scheduled return to the world of video games. Like Greg Miller because of his passion for the industry or Adam Sessler because of his breadt of knowledge and his ability to convey nuanced ideas in a converse man (e, I look forward to hearing a voice in the industry will not only champion those taking risking but be able to speak fluently about the knit and gritty details of the industry. One of the things I loved about Beyond was that it wasn't just about Playstation games, it was about the stance of Playstation and Sonny's compaies within the video games. So while I'm certain you will strive to carve out your own niche online, I hope we see a return to form of the old Colin that was never afraid to speak truth to power when it came down to how you veiwed mistakes and successes being made. We want the old Collin that is swimming in details but can still see the forest for the trees, and perhaps now you might have the time and a place to turn that attention towards the forests of, Microsoft and Nintendo. Either way, I'll be tunningn in and can't wait to see what you choose tackle as we head into the much debated game of the year diacussions.

Jon

Glad to hear about this. We need more people creating cool shit in the gaming conversation. I’d love to see consumer advocacy as a common thread through the videos. Publishers are misunderstanding their market right now, and more consumer advocacy editorial can help.

Josiah Lambert

It's wonderful that you decided to go back to creating content about gaming!!

I would love to see CLS Side Quest as a podcast as well if it’s only going to be a video if not then ignore me lol

Collin Delape

Can't wait for this your gaming insight is second to none

Jonathan Broussard

Happy to have your voice back to games media. I became a Patreon supporter because of this.

Agree with this! Logo is sick sick sick!!!!

Jonathan Rice

Nice!

John Burleson

Will the audio of Sidequests be on the same RSS?

Mike Menzel

Subbed as a result of this news - sorely missed Colins views/analysis on gaming over the last year

I would buy that logo on a shirt!

Joey Finelli

I am so excited!

Joey Finelli

Great to see you branch back into games. Your opinions were always valued and you were never aftaid to call things like they are.

Bryan Creagh

dude, have always loved your content, Im on board now financially supporting you. Cant wait for more of the good stuff.

Yeah Colin!! I’m sure this will be awesome, looking forward to it. I’ve missed your gaming knowledge, over the years your influence has helped me discover games I may never have, thank you. P.S. you’ve also educated me with a bit of history which I’ve also really enjoyed, especially American history which I don’t know too much about, being from UK. You deserve your success 👍

Charlie

Whoo, so stoked, Colin Was Right was my favorite video game coverage ever. This makes up for history taking a bit of a back seat lately, I'm hoping it bounces back too, but make sure you find the right balance for you, Colin.

I came back as a patreon supporter for this. I like CLS (particularly the history-focused episodes) but am usually more in the mood for game coverage in my car. I'm thrilled that you're going to do this. Big request -- audio only CLS: Side Quests. I'll support for a while regardless, but if you make an RSS available for this (assuming it's not part of the rss stream already) or put it on iTunes, I'm back in for good.

Wow. Made my Monday a lot brighter with the news and pretty quick rollout. Can’t wait until next Monday. Thanks again Colin

Josh in Tampa

Let the side quest begin, and right before my b-day

That black guy

Already commented once I think but man, Im excited.. Seems like a lot of people are as well as the amount of patrons increased quite a bit today... from low 4500 to almost 4600

Andrew

This is very exciting and I'm really happy for the great news like everyone else. I'm really curious to know how difficult it was to not make a different joke when discussing the "tripod". 😄 Longtime fans will know what I'm talking about ...

Matt Styka

Looking good Colin! Can't wait. I've always loved your opinion on games.

Joey Mendoza

The Whiteboard List is the best.

Thanks for doing this man can’t wait

I’m really stoked for this! You’ve been doing amazing with CLS! This is only going to make it better! Thank you, sir!

This is amazing! So excited! <3

Petre Cismigiu

Colin, since you left KF I’ve missed your gaming content, but never commented on it since it seemed like a painful subject. I very much enjoy your history/ politics content (I’ve been a supporter since the start), but MAN I’m so happy you’re back! I hope this is something you will enjoy (again) and I’m really looking forward to the first episode! Good luck!

Jacek Debowski

I will be becoming a patron because of this!!

GetNoct

One word...Ecstatic!

Nicole Webb

This is fantastic news, thanks for doing this Colin! I can’t wait to see CLS: Side Quest on November 20th!

Austin Tex Perez

That name tho!

Chad Lewis

Yes!

Alec Shaner

Absolutely fucking stoked.

Karlos Rey

I’m sure people noticed you didn’t mention your old crew in the last letter you wrote to us. I’m really sorry that wound was so deep. I hope it heals one day. That being said... So glad to have you back. Try to let the opinions of those who don’t like you roll off your back. Reclaim your format in games media. I told you in private that I had no idea how much KF was really you. It’s easy to think it’s Greg since he’s always out front, but the format you came up with is unique and is very obviously built for you. Can’t wait for the first episode. Keep taking my $10!! Lol

Anthony Wright

I’m so excited. Thank you. ✌🏻

Anthony Wright

I love this. I'm sure it'll do what we expect from Colin and what he always talked about with gaming and what he did with Colin Was Right, cut through the bullshit in gaming. Give the spotlight/attention/clicks/views to the developers and games that deserve it. I'm excited and overjoyed that you are heading back into this space, I have sorely missed you talking into a microphone about video games.

Brandon Reed

Huge fan of the logo for Side Quest. I'll be on the edge of my seat until the 20th. Best wishes 👌

Prince Borutski

I believe in you Colin!! Keep on gaming, indeed!!

Jeff Pollard

Hell yes.

Colin, I remember one time asking you on Colin and Greg Live that if you thought there was a place for in depth discussion about gaming on the internet; that treat it with the care you would treat any other art form. You said absolutely you thought there was. I'm so incredibly excited that you're going to be bringing us that discussion that I don't think enough outlets are having. You're taking gaming at it's root passion and putting that first. I hadn't become a Patron until today, and I couldn't be more excited to have those conversations with you.

David Mejia

Very happy day!

Buddhist Possum

I'm really excited for this! Thanks Colin.

Jimmy Valentine

Hey. You do you man. Happy to have you doing what makes/bring you joy. History. Conversations. Games. Whatever this show brings us, hope it brings you joy.

Bart Labeda

The name is perfect! So excited for this.

Jeff Palmer

Excellent news. Welcome back Colin.

Best news I've heard in a while! Glad to have you back!

You were imo hands down the #1 source for honest video game journalism, and now we get that again. I can only hope this expands even further in the future

Dav9834

YES! 👍🏻👏🏻😘❤️

BettyAnn Moriarty

Looks like you’re well on your way to accomplishing your 3 step plan. Enjoy those cheeseburgers. You definitely deserve them.

Ivan Bejarano

Yes! I can’t wait to hear you talk about games and the industry! I thought those days were over but I’m so glad they aren’t. Nov. 20 can’t come soon enough!

Very excited about this. You just got yourself a new patreon sub

Brock Thomas Walsh

Fantastic news Colin. Loved the Colin was right format and really look forward to seeing what you do this time around. Keep on gaming!

Jase Lingard

Colin Was Right was a perfect format so I'm really happy to see it resurrected. Brilliant work, Colin! Looking forward to it!

Scott Rabideau

Can’t wait!

Stephen Hooker

Name and logo are awesome, can't wait to see the first video!

Bryan Finck

10K views for Colin’s commentary on gaming? I’m 99.9% sure that’ll happen in 24 hours.

Joey Rawlings

Love the new idea. Excited for the content

Steven Camilo

Congrats. Look forward to the content. Thanks again

Bill Gartner

This makes me so happy. Side note, I love the graphic design of your various offerings, simple and tasteful.

Eric Gee

Great news! Keep up the great content Colin!

Connor F.

Great! So excited for this.

Ethan Voce

I am so very happy to hear the news! It came so much faster than I thought it would! I like the idea of a Colin War Right type of show, I can't wait for the first episode!

Tyson Villeneuve

Side Quest is such a great name for this show

Drew Packard

Also would be interested in a mea culpa ‘Colin Was Wrong’ type episode on Switch! It would make for good content to look back at your original take and what made things turn out differently than your prediction. Also will shut down the haters who will inevitably bring this up ;)

Brett Geiser

Can't wait!

Joaquin

<3

Joshua Miller

Awesome man! Great name and logo!

John Quinn

Welcome back to gaming.

Peter Campbell

Love the idea, Colin! Great name, and great idea to branch out CLS even more. I always say, I find your voice and intellect in gaming coverage unrivaled to anyone else. Colin was Right was one of the best (and short-lived) shows when you were back at KF, so I'm glad to see this as a spiritual successor. Good luck on the new show, I'll be eagerly awaiting for next Monday.

Matthew Clem

Awesome. Colin was right was a fantastic series while it lasted, glad it is continuing in some way.

So excited to have you back Colin! You're the reason I started fallow in games media and it hasn't been the same without you and your differing opinions from the norm.

Fred Bence

For one of your episodes, I'd love to hear your thoughts on this microtransaction, Battlefront 2 nonsense that's going on. It sounds like it would be a perfect "Colin Was Right" type topic. Glad you're back!

Claudien

Happy to be back in the fold - thanks so much for listening to your fans!

Brett Geiser

So glad to hear you're keeping that structure! Colin Was Right (especially the Conversation with series) was some of my favorite KF content.

Josh Squires

Such a good name! Looking forward to the new content man! ☺️

Leonard Jacobson

Awesome dude. Love the name and fucking love the logo 👌👌.

Cameron Paterson

Nice! I️ love the name and logo👍🏼

Love the logo!

Khalil Sadi

W00T W00T!!! Getting excited for this!

Whrathgar

Yes, I agree- great name!

Great name!

Rick Rodriguez

Love it! Looking forward to watching each week. Can we get a "Dilly, Dilly" to the hardest working man in the biz?

Derek Kelsheimer

Awesome, looking forward to that Colin was Right style again. Keep it up!

As long as you don't feel forced doing it, then I am happy! :)

Garett Gates

It's like a dream come true!!

Waves

Yes!

Joe Rowland

Glad to have you back!

LE

Omg I’m so excited for this!!!
