On this week's episode of the Ultimate Audio Bang, we drop our early verdicts on the state of Warzone 2 and whether or not it lives up to expectations. That's with thoughts on DMZ mode too, which we reckon has great potential. 🌐 Check out our lovely website: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com  🐦 Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rockpapershot / https://twitter.com/FromEdward / https://twitter.com/immybeck 💬 Join the RPS Discord: https://discord.gg/rockpapershotgun 🛒 Buy some RPS merch: https://store.reedpop.com/collections/rock-paper-shotgun  Learn more about your ad choices.

On this week's episode of the Ultimate Audio Bang, we give our verdict on Modern Warfare 2 and its grab bag of a campaign. Hayden thinks it's terrible, I don't think it's actually that bad, and we debate this fact for around an hour. 🌐 Check out our lovely website: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com  🐦 Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rockpapershot / https://twitter.com/FromEdward / https://twitter.com/immybeck 💬 Join the RPS Discord: https://discord.gg/rockpapershotgun 🛒 Buy some RPS merch: https://store.reedpop.com/collections/rock-paper-shotgun  Learn more about your ad choices.

On this week's episode of the Ultimate Audio Bang, we deliver our impressions of Overwatch 2 and discuss whether Overwatch really needed a number "2" slapped on the end of it.  The chat then delves into other live-service competitors and how they've handled growth. Is Overwatch's watchability to blame? Is there actually anything to worry about at all? Or, in fact, will Overwatch 2 retain its player base for years to come? So many questions and lots of putting Hayden on the spot with them. 🌐 Check out our lovely website: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com  🐦 Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rockpapershot / https://twitter.com/FromEdward / https://twitter.com/immybeck 💬 Join the RPS Discord: https://discord.gg/rockpapershotgun 🛒 Buy some RPS merch: https://store.reedpop.com/collections/rock-paper-shotgun  Learn more about your ad choices.

On this week's episode of the Ultimate Audio Bang, we dig deep into Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's recent multiplayer beta weekends and discuss whether Warzone needs a total revamp, how Warzone impacts the multiplayer side of things, and whether Warzone's upcoming DMZ mode may be Call Of Duty's big gambit. 🌐 Check out our lovely website: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com  🐦 Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rockpapershot / https://twitter.com/FromEdward / https://twitter.com/immybeck 💬 Join the RPS Discord: https://discord.gg/rockpapershotgun 🛒 Buy some RPS merch: https://store.reedpop.com/collections/rock-paper-shotgun  Learn more about your ad choices.

On this week's episode of the Ultimate Audio Bang podcast, we select a few of our favourite non-traditional guns that aren't really guns. You know, the sorts of weapons that don't just spew bullets but generate portals or even clean filth off car bonnets. What really happens is we go off on a massive tangent about Deathloop, because we can't help ourselves. 🌐 Check out our lovely website: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com  🐦 Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rockpapershot / https://twitter.com/FromEdward / https://twitter.com/immybeck 💬 Join the RPS Discord: https://discord.gg/rockpapershotgun 🛒 Buy some RPS merch: https://store.reedpop.com/collections/rock-paper-shotgun  Learn more about your ad choices.

On this week's episode of the Ultimate Audio Bang, we get all nostalgic as we pick our favourite FPS game modes over the years. It's mainly an excuse for me for me to bring up Gears Of War and it's long-forgotten Wingman mode, which I demand make a return to the series. I also learn that Hayden likes big games, big modes, and big comradery. 🌐 Check out our lovely website: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com  🐦 Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rockpapershot / https://twitter.com/FromEdward / https://twitter.com/immybeck 💬 Join the RPS Discord: https://discord.gg/rockpapershotgun 🛒 Buy some RPS merch: https://store.reedpop.com/collections/rock-paper-shotgun  Learn more about your ad choices.

On this week's episode of the Ultimate Audio Bang, we turn our attention to shooters and their demands. They all want our undivided attention and for Hayden and I, it's fast becoming a bit much. Believe it or not, we're adults with clothes to fold and ovens to pre-heat! Daily quests and inane challenges aren't bringing us back, if anything, they're beginning to drive us away. 🌐 Check out our lovely website: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com  🐦 Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rockpapershot / https://twitter.com/FromEdward / https://twitter.com/immybeck 💬 Join the RPS Discord: https://discord.gg/rockpapershotgun 🛒 Buy some RPS merch: https://store.reedpop.com/collections/rock-paper-shotgun  Learn more about your ad choices.

The Ultimate Audio Bang is back! Yes, after a sad albeit festive farewell to Imogen (RPS in peace) I've since roped poor Hayden in to chat with me. As it's his first rodeo, we keep this episode fairly relaxed and get to know a bit more about our new pod bud, then follow it up with our Point Of Interest: Summer Geoff Fest. Namely, the shooters and shootery things that caught our eyes from its many showcases. We're still ironing out the structure of the pod, especially when it comes to our Point Of Interest and all the newsy bits. We may end up mixing the two together, or perhaps only picking out a couple of the most interesting stories of the last two weeks. The consensus, I think, is that the PoI will take precedence and we'll try our damndest to make it spicy for you all. 🌐 Check out our lovely website: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com  🐦 Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rockpapershot / https://twitter.com/FromEdward / https://twitter.com/immybeck 💬 Join the RPS Discord: https://discord.gg/rockpapershotgun 🛒 Buy some RPS merch: https://store.reedpop.com/collections/rock-paper-shotgun  Learn more about your ad choices.
