Episode 179: Tom Clancy’s Club Penguin

Listen Later

Chris, Pip and Alex recap GDC, find various uses for a Steam Link and double-tap Ghost Recon: Wildlands.

Plus! Our favourite history podcasts, goat-bonking Bloodbowl 2 action, the world circa 2003 and 2016 and the question of whether Ed Sheeran looks like all games journalists or whether all games journalists look like Ed Sheeran.

  • Goats get bonked in Bloodbowl 2.
  • GDC! Pip saw a hummingbird.
  • She also sat in a box.
  • …and here’s the rest of Pip’s writeup of Alt.Ctrl.GDC.
  • Pip’s keen on Tacoma.
  • VR game Delilah’s Gift by Isaac Cohen is part of a collection that impressed at GDC. Here’s Pip’s article about them.
  • Steam Link: it comes with cables.
  • We are charmed by Loot Rascals.
  • Chris is not enjoying Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Lads On Tour: Wild Lads: World At War.
  • Our recommended history (ish) podcasts are You Must Remember This, Dan Carlin’s Hardcore History, 99% Invisible, The History of Rome, In Our Time, Lore, and Myths and Legends.
  • The introduction to Torment: Tides of Numenera is more or less just the whale bit from Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy.
