Podcasting about games and things
It’s been a while because of things like actually needing to go walking to make the walking videos, but we are back and talking about Forza Horizon 4, No Man’s Sky, Lord of the Rings Online and Stellaris.
This time Tim has been playing Torment: Tides of Numenera so we get to hear how great Planescape Torment was. Again. Jon has been playing Graveyard Keeper and we’ve both been playing more Warhammer 40,000: Killteam, but this time we’ve...
This week the heat has got to us a bit and we can’t be bothered with games, so we talk about other things. We also talk about games because even that doesn’t seem to be able to stop us. There’s...
This week we have been playing Factorio, Danger Zone 2, Warframe, Warhammer 40,000: Gladius and Red Faction Guerrilla.

This time we’re talking about Shadespire, Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor Martyr and don’t once comment on how bad a name that is, Quarantine Circular, Stellaris and Factorio. There’s a video version as well of course.
It’s all oddly Space Wolves this week with Jon playing Warhammer 40,000: Sanctus Reach and Warhammer 40,000: Space Wolf. They’re Warhammer 40,000 games but they don’t like to give that away in the names. Tim meanwhile has been playing the...
This week we’re talking about the first season of Telltale’s Batman, Secret World Legends, Battletech and Lord of the Rings Online. As always there’s a video version available over here if you’d rather look at our faces for some reason:

It’s out 200th episode and also our 10th anniversary of starting podcasting so we’re having a think about what we’ve learnt. While wearing hats. Here’s the video version if you want to see them, or stick to the audio if you...
We return after a short break with talk of both GTA V, because Tim is nothing if not cutting edge, and The Universim, because Jon is way too cutting edge for his own good. The video version is available here
We start this new year with talk of Echo, which is an interesting take on a stealth game and Google Earth, which isn’t a game but is very fun in VR. Jon also ran a religion in The Shrouded Isle...

We’re joined again by Toerag to talk about our latest Hugo novel, which this time is Ringworld by Larry Niven. There’s a large ring around a sun and so a team is assembled to go investigate it in a book...

This week Jon has been learning how to play football with Behold the Kickmen and how to run a kingdom with Kingdoms and Castles. Castles and Kingdoms. Towns and Castles. Avenues and Alleyways. One of those titles, it’s a very...
This week Tim is rounding up the nightly groups while Jon has been playing Kane and Lynch 2, which is without doubt the worse game that he’s played in… forever and getting annoyed at Horizon: Zero Dawn.
Time spent the night in a ditch (on purpose), Jon played Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris, Tim finished Obduction, and Jon tried out Grow Up. Tim has also read an awful lot of books so there’s a wrap...

This week we’re complaining that Borderlands 2 is too long, rounding up the static group progress and playing Little Nightmares.
This week we’ve both been playing Mad Max and we have a chat about how many games you can get from subscriptions each month, and how much that’s stopping us buying new games.
This week it’s the return of the Hugo award winning book show. Not that we won a Hugo, the books did. We weren’t even nominated even though Tim could have done it if he really wanted but considered it crass...
This week Tim has been off walking and is now paying the price and the group has been smuggling things in Elite. Jon has been playing the Hot Wheels DLC in Forza Horizon 3 and it’s as insane as it...
This week we’ve been playing Late Shift, which is a fully FMV game, Remember Me, which isn’t, Path of Exile and Dawn of War 3.
This week we’ve been looking at generation ships in Elite Dangerous, building ships in Space Engineers, hitting things in Guns of Icarus and wondering how unbalanced a boardgame can actually be with Warhammer 40k Lost Patrol.
This week we’re talking about why the Division is no longer being played, why The Witness was good but pretentious and why the Bloodborne card game is better that you would expect. Then there’s some 40k talk as GW have gone...
It’s time for another Hugo award winning book, and this month Toerag has picked The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman. It’s the tale of a boy who grows up in a graveyard and is our second book ostensibly aimed at children....
This week we’re doing a roundup of the weekly groups, discussing why Horizon: Zero Dawn isn’t as good as it first seemed and then looking at the Hugo nominees for this year.
This week Jon has given Tim a code for The Witness because he knew what it would do to him, but then started playing Thimbleweed Park so we’re both screwed really. Weve also checked out Guns of Icarus Alliance and...
This week we’re catching up with what Jon has been playing in his co-op sessions, which is Halo 1, Gears of War 2 and Borderlands 2. We also have a discussion about Magic the Gathering as games of it have...

We’ve been podcasting for 9 years this week, so it’s a sort of special show that I hope won’t put you all off from watching. We talk about playing Elite Dangerous with the gang, the new Microsoft game subscription service,...
The regrowth series recently ended, so we have a chat about what we think of it now we’ve done it all. Then we move on to talking about the first of our Elite Dangerous group sessions and how that went.
This week we’ve mostly been playing Guildwars 2, Fallout Shelter, The Division, Halo: Combat Evolved and Elite Dangerous.
It’s Hugo winner time again, and so we’ve read Philip K Dick’s classic 1962 alternate history novel The Man in the High Castle where the Allies lost WW2 and now the Germans and Japanese have divided up a conquered America.
This week Tim has visited all of the map in Guildwars and has been on a road trip in Elite Dangerous, while Jon has been breaking time in Quantum break and having doubts about renewing PlayStation Plus.
