Psu.com - Playstation Unchained

Greetings adventurers! Unchained takes a break from the norm to celebrate (and sometimes berate) the Uncharted series. In this lengthy special, Host Neil Bolt runs through the highs and lows of every major Uncharted game so far. From reminiscing over Drake's Fortune to gibbering gleefully about A Thief's End, this has it all, including the first official use of the term 'The Struckmann Effect'. Go ahead use it, it's legit now. Joining Neil are Unchained regulars Mike Harradence, Kevin Rombouts, Ben Shillabeer-Hall and Garri Bagdasarov, plus returning guest, Chris Clement.

Welcome to Unchained 120, the episode number, and the average IQ of the Unchained staff (or was it the collective IQ?). This week sees the group discuss Battlefield 1's choice of era. Will it finally take the series away from Call of Duty-aping? Also a hot topic is the resurgence of 3D platformers. Will Ratchet & Clank's success spark a new wave of 3D platform style games? Has the indie scene kept the platforming flame alight? The host this week is Mike Harradence, and he heads up this six-man tag match alongside Kevin Rombouts, Neil Bolt, Garri Bagdasarov, Aaron Varshney, and special returning guest, Chris Clement.

This week on Unchained, the gang talk a lot about murder. Hitman, Battlefield, Call of Duty and the poster boy for mass genocide, Nathan Drake. It's not all about killing people though! There's also chat about spoiler avoidance, and wiping out swarms of aliens, so plenty of variety on show! Your host this week is a nostalgic Neil Bolt, and he is joined by Belgium's finest export, Kevin Rombouts, Moogle-Go-Round host Ben Shillabeer-Hall, and Battleborn Boy, Aaron Varshney.

Unchained fans rejoice, another week sees another episode of the podcast most likely to make you tut angrily. This week, there's talk about how suprisingly good Mirror's Edge Catalyst is, Invisible Inc being the best strategy game on PS4, and a heated debate about whether the PS4k is even that big of a deal. Plus, the show is rounded off with another bout of 'Hit it, or Quit it' where the gang yay or nay May's upcoming releases. WARNING: Someone nays Uncharted 4 and someone yays Homefront. Mike 'Muscles' Harradence is back on hosting duties, ably assisted by his panel of pedantry.  Neil 'Quit Whining' Bolt, 'Gargantuan Gaglaush' Garri Bagdasarov, and of course Ben ''Game-breaker' Shillabeer Hall.

Unchained is short and sweet this week, but the filling is twice as meaty.  The gang talk Ratchet & Clank's greatness, Dark Souls III burnout, No Man's Sky's latest trailer and why the Red Dead Redemption 2 map leak is probably legit because it has a bit that looks like genitals. Neil Bolt returns to the hosts chair, with his butt groove still well worn  into it. He isn't alone either, Ben joins him once again of course, and The Gargantuan Gaglaush Garri Bagdasarov is also about. Looks like a good family-friendly show again...apart from the bit about genitals.

Can you believe this? They've gone and made another PlayStation Unchained! Ugh, there's already been 115 of these things, when will they stop rehashing this old nonsense? The answer is never! Anyway, Neil hosts this week, ably accompanied by the totem-esque Ben Shillabeer-Hall, the Gargantuan Gaglaush of the Deep known as Garri, and the returning Champion of Reading (the place, not the act of looking at words in a book) Mike Harradence. The topics include a healthy debate about David Hayter's Kojima-bashing and Ford Focus-shilling, Uncharted 4's potential ending, Dark Souls III being pretty good and Mike talks about his hands-on with the new Sherlock Holmes game.  Fun for all the family!

The cast of Unchained are scattered like seeds in the wind.  Only two remain, and those two are the apocalypse preventing hero of the Realm Reborn, Ben Shillabeer-Hall, and the Ultimate Squash player of our time, Aaron Varshney.  They mainly talk about Final Fantasy XV,  so enjoy that!

PSU's comic book podcast returns after a lengthy break. In this episode, host Garri Bagdasarov discusses the more recent developments in all forms of comic-based media with guests Neil Bolt, Ben Shillabeer-Hall and Kevin Rombouts. Featured on the show is a big chunk of chat about Batman v Superman, DC's Rebirth plan for its comic book line, Daredevil's second season on Netflix and thoughts and concerns for Captain America: Civil War.

This week on Unchained, Neil returns to the host's chair, accompanied by the Squadron Supreme of Garri, Ben, Kevin and Aaron. They come laden with the gifts of hot gaming topics, including the 20th birthday of the survival horror daddy Resident Evil, A lament for the pre-Resi 4 era, pre-Easter suprises with XCOM on Vita, and Rockstar's dynamic duo of Bully and Manhunt lead to predictions and hopes of what is to come next from the juggernaut publisher/developer. It's  fun times for all the family!

Get yer lugholes round this audio wonderment! The Unchained Gang are back with 112th edition of the 7th most likely podcast to increase listener's ability to read Pig Latin.  Neil returns to the hosting chair, flanked by his noble steeds Kevin Rhombus, Ben 'Captain Division' Shillabeer-Hall, and Aaron 'Distracted' Varshney. He chairs a debate on the plight of online trophies and the future of online-only games. There's also a lengthy discussion about Hitman's pricing system, and subsequently, about why demos are no longer a common thing. Plus Ben talks about The Division being alright, Kevin discovers the joy of fear with Alien Isolation, while Neil is trapped in  his worst nightmare with SOMA.

Join Ben, Kevin, but Aaron and Garri for a live, unedited PlayStation Unchained where among other things, they preemptively rate the games of March in the feature everyone's calling 'a reasonable idea', Hit it? Or Quit it?

Unchained gets to 110,  which is as many metres as there are in the Hurdles at the Olympics. Like that, Ben, Kevin and Aaron must leap over the horrors of the working week to reach that finish line of topical PlayStation chat.  Should Battlefield get a gold medal for going to World War I? Does a Bioshock remaster deserve the wooden spoon?  Such things are among the discussion topics in this latest slice of PSU staff knowledge.

Unchained once again comes around, much like the man Johhny Cash once sang about. Neil poses the questions for  Unchained's Aaron, Garri, Kevin and Ben this week, incuding such gems as ''Are games like Street Fighter V, Rainbow Six Seige and Star Wars Battlefront a case of quality over quantity? Or are they nothing more than paid betas? Awkward silences and uhms and ahhs follow this as the group try to recollect the worst stories seen in games. Then there's debate over what gaming trends need to go. You've probably guessed what some of them are already, but you can still come and nod in agreement.

The PlayStation Unchained team present a one-off special podcast dedicated to the seminal fighting series. Host Mike Harradence is joined by regular Unchained players Neil Bolt, Aaron Varshney and Garri Bagdasarov, with a guest appearance by M. Bison himself!

It's great when you're 108! Unchained returns with talk on Kanye West's game, while Neil's going barmy for a psychological horror and bargain-basement anime voices. Ben's ever present glitch-hunting is back for Dying Light, and Aaron and Kevin start a lynch mob for Ubisoft...again.  Plus, we babble about Unravel, Gravity Rush and Street Fighter V, as well as a bunch of PC games for some reason. You can skip that bit if you like. Anyway, enjoy!

Welcome to Unchained 107, the slightly less interesting secret agent codename masquerading as a long-running podcast about all things PlayStation, which I'm sure you'll agree, is the best cover. Go on, see if you can crack the secret code hidden in the dulcet tones of our host this week, Mike Harradence. What other secrets will be uncovered? Will Kevin have the definitive answer to why Destiny is dying? Is Ben in the know about what possessed Bethesda to okay that Doom cover art? Perhaps Aaron reveals what TV show will make a good game? Who knows! That's the joy you get dear listener. Also, Garri ceases being dead long enough to participate in all these discussions and more. Clean out those earholes and give Unchained's latest episode a ruddy good listen!

Welcome back old friend! Unchained accepts you once more with open arms for the 106th time! See, we never tire of you, not like that other one did. Anyway, we have such stories to tell! Like how Aaron got sick because of The Witness.  Or how Ben phased through walls in The Division Beta. What about Mike you ask? He remains well, still swimming in the tranquil seas of Shenmue-based nostalgia. He says he hopes you're well. Me? Well little ol' Neil is doing just fine thank you. I made the gang rate February's games in a cheeky little feature  called 'Hit it or Quit it?' and regaled all with a story of how a retching pet cat ruined a tender gaming moment. It's good to see you again, shall we go for dinner at Scarbrough's premier Fish n' Chip shop to celebrate?

It's episode 105 of Unchained, and it's Ben's birthday! Naturally he wanted to slip into the host's chair so we let him (because he is the great and wonderful Chille). Who joins him on this journey? Why it's Neil, Kevin, and Aaron. What do they talk about? Well, there's debate about the quality of the The Division and The Witness (for different reasons) plus questions! Lots of questions! Including one that finds everyone talking about a Gordon Ramsay rhythm-action cooking simulator and a takeaway with a questionable name. Please do enjoy, it will please Ben immensely. Ugh, not in that way you deviant!

Welcome to the all-new and improved PlayStation Unchained! For episode 104 we have a change in format to ring in the new year! (yes, we know it's late, technical issues and Christmas hangovers) In this edition of the long-running PSU podcast sees Mike return to the host's chair, flanked by the ever able team of Neil, Ben, Aaron and Kevin, to chat about a whole bunch of games including Resident Evil 0's re-release, awful voice acting in games,  as well as PlayStation VR's pricing and its eventual fate. Plus there's Question of the Week, where we ponder which dead game series/developer/publisher we'd want to return. Pretty sure we choose all of them. Pull up a chair, eat a scone, and enjoy 90 minutes of creamy waffle.

Start of the new year with this refreshing podcast from your favorite website! This episode, hosted by Neil, has Aaron, Garri, Kevin and typing Ben bantering through their anticipated games of the upcoming year.
