This week we talk Assassin's Creed Black Flag remake rumours and Xbox's identity. Erm. There's not an awful lot of news this week. We have a quiz though! In Game of the Week, shocking aboslutely no-one Miles has been connecting in Death Stranding 2 and talks his thoughts of the first few hours. Josh has been stressing out at the mighty Anger Foot now it's launches on consoles. Kat has continued her journey back in Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered on her shiny PS5 Pro whilst Rossko talks finally getting to grips with Hitman and exploring the success of Roblox's Grow A Garden via Fortnite's version, Go Garden. We keep up with the trends here, fellow kids. Oh, and we recommend some coasters.Hey if you like our podcast why not leave us a review?!

This week on the pod Rossko, Miles and Josh talk WB Games who this week has announced they're dividing up their IP. We discuss what this means and where the hell they've been all this time. We also talk Marathon after it got an indefinite delay and the Death Stranding 2 reviews. Oh, and Charlie Cox has talked Expedition 33! So we talk about that game. Again. Ah well, it's amazing. In Game of the Week, Josh has dipped his toe in Mike Bithell's latest, Tron Catalyst whilst Miles (and Josh) has been playing a whole of Sloclap's Rematch, which is proving to be quite the popular game amongst the Finger Guns clan. Rossko finishes off by talking about Architecture Life and his own experience of Rematch. I wonder how many times I can write Rematch. Rematch. Rematch?

This week - Konami remaking Silent Hill 1! Mindseye being a bit naff and we discuss our PlayStation Plus tiers and see if we think we're making the most of them as Sony raise the price higher and higher. Josh has spent the week playing The Alters, which is pushing for that Game of the Year spot (which is to say it's rather excellent), Miles Thompson has fallen deeper in love with Rematch and is trying to get the most out of Elden Ring Nightreign, Kat has multiple games on the go including the new season of Fortnite and that Horizon Zero Dawn remaster now she has a PS5 Pro whilst Rossko has been filling up his camper van in er, Camper Van: Make It Home. Unpacking in a tiny van? Yeah, that's what we like. Hey if you like our podcast why not leave us a review?!

Episode 300. We made it. Can you believe it? We certainly can't. Still! No time to wonder how on earth we got here (it's because of you, and we're incredibly grateful). Joining Rossko, Kat and Miles are our old friends, VGC's Chris Scullion and actor, writer, podcaster legend Ethan Lawrence, as is tradition to commemorate this momentous occasion and talk the weeks news. Also, it's the week of the Switch 2 release and a weekend of gaming showcases so we talk hype levels for both, what we'd like to see and what t-shirt Phil Spencer will be wearing this time. Spoiler - it might just shake you to your very core.In Game of the Week Miles talks lovingly about the Rematch beta and talks not-so-lovingly about Elden Ring: Nightreign. Kat has finally got into Balatro and it's very much not letting go. Ethan finally shares his love for the almighty Expedition 33, Chris has seen the light and admits that Fortnite is freakin' fantastic whilst Rossko gets colourful about the cracking Spray Paint Simulator.Boy we timed this well didn't we?

This week Rossko, Josh and Kat talk all about the Marathon plagiarism controversy and how Bungie get themselves out of this particular corner. It's not looking good. Still! On a lighter note we discuss the possibility of a shiny new Red Dead Redemption 2 remaster coming to modern systems (including Switch 2) and find we would prefer another Rockstar classic remastered instead. Oh, and there's an AI Darth Vader in Fortnite. SAG-AFTRA aren't happy. I wonder why?! In Game of the Week, Josh and Rossko have been playing Doom The Dark Ages and they having a bit of a journey with it, let's just say that. Kat has been fully addicted to the almighty Phasmophobia and has finally started and finished Life is Strange 2. Rossko has also been playing the surprisingly exciting City Bus Simulator and continues to suck at Hitman.Hey if you like our podcast why not leave us a review?!
