Episode 05 : New Year, New Outlook?...

The final episode of the Year of Shame challenge podcast recorded just over a week after the challenge has ending. What have the guys picked up, have they reverted to their old ways, or had the challenge changed them forever?

With only a week to go, join all four hosts together for the first time in the penultimate episode. We discuss how the challenge has potentially changed the way we buy games forever, how two of the host somehow managed to acquire GTA V, and we conclude that Terry doesn't understand the word Challenge. Find us on twitter @YOSChallnge, or find us on the forum at midlifegamer.net.

Hosts this month are Darren, Terry and Jayce as Si is off on his honeymoon. The lads discussed the end in sight, and how the next gen consoles are now pre ordered and they’re counting down the days until Eurogamer 2013. As always, you can find us on twitter @YOSChallenge or find us in the forum at midlifegamer.net.

Darren, Jayce and Terry (sorry, no Si this month) discuss the pain of the current summer sales, and loopholes they may be utilising. Your questions answered in the #YOSHI section, and highlights of the potential challenges in the upcoming months. As always, you can find us on twitter @yoschallenge, or find us on the forum at midlifegamer.net

Si again graces us with his presence allowing Terry time to play new games. We discuss E3, the next generation of console, and our feeling on the challenge as it stands. We also answer a large amount of questions in the #YOSHI section. As always, you can find us on twtter @YOSChallenge, via email YOSChallenge (at) gmail.com.

In this episode, Si is busy again so Terry steps up and gets a chance to justify his recent game purchases. For the first time, all 3 have an 'admission' as the cracks are really starting to show. As always, find us on twitter @YOSChallenge, drop us an email at [email protected], or come visit us on the forum at midlifegamer.net.

Si decided to grace us with his presence, we consider replacing Jayce with 3 sound bytes, hear how our stand in host (Terry) is breaking and is Darren finally starting to crack under the pressure. This month we decide to ditch the 'Just Play it section' due to lack of interest from the listeners and hosts, but still answer your questions in the #YOSHI section. As always, find us on twitter @YOSChallenge and on the forum at midlifegamer.net.

Another no show from @sistevens, so a massive thank you to @foxhounder01 for stepping in again. We discuss how the XBOX Live sale nearly broke us all, and how the next six month will be challenging. We answer your questions in the #YOSHI section, and give you the option of picking game for us to play in the 'Just Play it' section. As always, you can find us on Twitter @YOSChallenge, or send us an email at YOSChallenge (at) gmail (dot) com.

Is the pressure getting too much for one hosts, another is missing in action, and we call in a sub. We list the games we'd like to play in March in the 'Just Play It' and answer your questions in #YOSHI section. Find us on twitter @YOSChallenge or come visit us in the forum of midlifegamer.net

First episode of 2013 and we discuss our different view on the pile. We discuss the pain of the Christmas game sales, answer your questions in the #YOSHI section and the announcements of #FloppyFeb. Find us on twitter at @YOSChallenge or on the forums at midlifegamer.net
