I Don't Have Time To Game Anymore

Our Christmas special is a celebration of the old and new—Half-Life is back with Alyx's game, the tan leather jacket returns in Shenmue 3, and there is rumour of a new Bioshock game. Meanwhile, the new Google Stadia is met with a luke-warm reaction.

In a Halloween special we talk about one of the biggest annual game launches, Call of Duty, and the official launch date of the PS5. In a surprise 'game' comeback, we talk about the scariest games we've played and some costume ideas for you next year.

Nintendo is launching a spiritual successor to the Wii Fit—we take it apart (not literally) and talk of its merits, along with Untitled Goose Game. Nostalgia is in the air as we celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Dreamcast. Kojima is up to his usual.

Sony buys Insomniac, Apple launches its own 'Arcade' platform, and your Xbox is listening to your conversations. In cruder topics old Kojima is up to his tricks again—exposing Norman Reedus' wanger (yes, that's right—a slang word for penis).

Alright, poddogs! A light review of E3 and upcoming titles from Microsoft and Nintendo, including Keanu Reaves pointless appearance, and the potential dangers of Harry Potter—Wizards Unite. For our game, we debate whether loot boxes are gambling.

While the run-up to the Summer brings us a game-release drought, two interesting hardware releases keep us excited—the unexpected Playdate console, and the Oculus Quest. We unfairly speculate about IGNs demise and also loosely talk about E3.

We officially apologise for the offensive output of our show as we fail to secure a second guest. After this 'hot gossip', we talk new games including Days Gone, as well as PS5 news + thoughts on the disc-less Xbox One (spoiler: we don't care).

Can Google get our attention with their new take on gaming? Join us for an extra long episode thanks to much musings over Google's new gaming platform—Google Stadia. Other news and larks including thoughts on 'Sekiro', from the creators of Bloodbourne.

A pair of old-timers venture into the hot-off-the-press Battle Royale game, Apex Legends, and share our thoughts. Our topical game this week revolves around us helping desperate real-world companies get a piece of the Battle Royale money pie.

Jay has a Netflix themed time-cheating epiphany. In the news, we list a flurry of new game releases and resentfully discuss the eight years that have passed while Crackdown 3 has been in development. To finish, we play a Valentines-related game.

As Jay drops a controversial clanger on Forza 4 Horizon, we muse over what 2019 will bring. Will there be any next gen news or will we just get a steady stream of AAA games? Amongst the rumours are a Nintendo Switch update, and a new mystery console.

Our Christmas special 2018 with a guest appearance by Peter Todd! We nominate our game of the year (with a caveat), talk about what went wrong with Fallout 76’s multiplayer and how to remedy it, and give our take on a Kickstarter’s popular gaming glove.

In the run-up to Xmas, we wonder who the PlayStation Classic is for, talk some Red Dead, and expand on the Super Smash Bros roster. In our game this episode we muse over Red Dead Redemption alternatives in a weak attempt to support indie game developers.

We brainstorm possible new features for the upcoming PS5 and trade our favourite insults for poor losers. And congratulations to Dave as his window for gaming gets smaller, with the arrival of a new daughter.

Our first guest on the show! We discuss the concept of ‘gaming rage’ with Doctor Peter Todd. This was recorded back in the heat of summer when the World Cup was in our midsts, so forgive some references. Disclaimer: Peter Todd is not a real doctor.

In our belated E3 episode we talk about the hype surrounding the annual game expo. In our E3-flavoured game of the week, we hypothesise how we would have garnered audience hype if we were stuck on a low marketing budget.

Lots of news this week as Walmart leaks potential future games and Fortnite releases a shopping trolley (who cares?). More impressively Dave has walked up a mountain. In a weak attempt at relevancy, we talk about potential Royal Weddings in video games.

Along with the rest of Twitter, we pick four games that have helped defined who we are. As North and South Korea patch up their differences, we host a therapy session for our gaming heroes and their nemesis’, offering relationship advice.

Jay makes the brave decision to take his Switch down the pub. We discuss the perils of this journey, along with regular gaming news and a couple more companions from last week’s Companion game.

Which games won big at the BAFTAs? We commiserate the release of another 10/10 game — God of War. We play a new game — the companion game. Would a companion help your life? We discuss and ultimately decide whether to keep them around. Dark humour awaits.
