What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Like the title says; I’ve been a fan of these guys for about as long as I’ve been a gamer in the YouTube era (which is a very long time), and this podcast really is the core of what independent gaming journalism and gaming fandom, overall, is all about. I’m super excited for these guys, and I encourage anyone who’s in a position to do so to support the team financially, over on Patreon, to make sure they can continue to grow and thrive in this environment. Independent gaming content like this deserves to continue on, and it’s up to us - the fans - to make sure that happens.

The X Button is an outstanding video game podcast that captures everything I love about gaming. Whether you're a lifelong gamer who grew up with a controller in your hands or someone discovering the magic of gaming for the first time, this podcast offers entertaining conversations, great insight, and a genuine passion for the industry. What really makes The X Button stand out is the chemistry of the crew, their knowledge of gaming, and the way they make every episode feel like you're hanging out with friends talking about your favorite games. They celebrate what makes gaming special while keeping the conversation fun, engaging, and relatable. As a dad gamer who grew up during the golden age of video games, I especially appreciate content that brings back that nostalgic feeling while still getting me excited about what's coming next. The X Button strikes that balance beautifully. If you love video games, gaming culture, and hearing passionate gamers talk about the hobby we all love, do yourself a favor and give The X Button a listen. It's the kind of podcast that reminds you why you fell in love with gaming in the first place. **Five stars, without hesitation! Keep up the fantastic work, X Button crew!** 🎮

These guys are always a joy to listen to. Impressions, reviews, experiences, or just talking about everyday life. These guys will deliver it in a way that will make you turn off the podcast out of fear that you may drive off the road from laughter.

Amazing! It’s like listening to IGN, but better! I’m happy you guys stayed in the industry and I’m looking forward to making this and Ninfriendo 64 weekly listens. I hope you decide to make a website someday.
