Link To The Cast

This week on Link To The Cast, Dave and Mark attempt to bravely soldier on in Brian's absence and see what's been going on in the world of videogames. This week:

Dave is deep in the puzzley rabbit hole of The Witness

Mark played a Call of Duty game? Has hell frozen over?

The first LTTC of 2016 is here, and what better way to celebrate a new year than by welcoming our favourite Englishman Mark Robinson back to the show! Mark has returned from his time in China and has some GOTY beef to thrash out with Dave and Brian, among other things.

Join us this week as we discuss, among other things: the wonder of Five Guys burgers, the death of David Bowie and Alan Rickman, Brian's thoughts on the Revenant, Dave's on The Hateful Eight, Mad Max being the perfect 7/10 game to keep you busy a while, Fast Racing NEO, Tales From The Borderlands, and all the headlines in gaming since the new year (yes, including the PSN crash)

Our Book Club this week is a special look at a sleeper hit from last year that Brian and Dave blitzed through over the Christmas break: the slasher movie turned video game (or ass simulator depending on which one of us you listen to) Until Dawn!

It's been a fun 2015 for us here at the podcast, and we hope you join us when we return for the first official podcast of 2016 next week with our first Book Club game of the year- Until Dawn. We have a lot of cool plans for 2016 that we hope you'll enjoy!

Bah Humbug and such, Link To The Cast returns for our part Christmas special, part season finale, part end of year awards show!

Mark is somewhere up a mountain with his surrogate Irishman while myself, Brian and our special festive guest- the Roman Reigns of audio, our sporting game correspondent, and the only man I know who has a brass section handy, Jack Layzell do all the work.

Join us on the first part of a fun and chaotic end of year special as we thrash out our favourite games of the last year, and keep an eye out in the next few days for part two which will include us crowning our inaugural Game of The Year.

Ho ho ho, merry everyone! Link to the Cast is sort of back!

Brian has returned home to the rural Utopia from whence he came for Christmas, and the lack of M&S Turkey sandwiches has made Mark as feral as a coyote, which left me to hold down the fort this week. Fortunately, rather than listen to me prattle on about Silent Hill for two hours (oh believe me, I could), I decided instead to release this week's pre-recorded Game of The Year Book Club feature as a standalone episode.

This week is the turn of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, and helping me wax lyrical about Kojima's magnum opus is none other than friend of the show, and all around top bloke Jack Layzell. So enjoy an unedited and extended chat about one of the best games of this year, and laugh along as I attempt to seamlessly segue back into a podcast that I would go on to not be able to record.

Boy howdy is this a big show!

This week on Link to the Cast, we have a hell of a lot to get through:

*What the hell is the Late Late Toy Show, and why is it so amazing?

*Brian's Fallout update, and his early wanderings in Destiny.

*Both Dave and Brian blow lots of stuff up in Just Cause 3.

*Dave gushes over Rise of the Tomb Raider, and returns to Vice City

plus, a lot of news this week from both the Game Awards, and Playstation Experience 2015. Then we round off the show with a book club feature about one of our GOTY nominees, Dying Light.

Returning from the sickbay, it's a new Link to the Cast!

We're back from an extended break after a flu rendered Dave barely human any more. On the show this week, we answer the tough questions:

*Marvel's Jessica Jones, was it as good as we'd hoped?

*Did Brian keep his pants on when he saw the Captain America trailer? (He did not.)

*Has Brian been able to play anything not called Fallout 4? (He has not)

In addition, Dave talks about finishing off Telltale's Game of Thrones, and finally getting to sit down with Guitar Hero Live for a while.

As per usual, we also cover some of the main news stories of the week and return to our weekly book club, where we look at an important game from the past that you should check out or revisit. This week, to the surprise of no one when Brian picked it, we take a look at the most critically acclaimed 'Liam Neeson's yer da' simulator- Fallout 3.

Witcher please!

Link To The Cast is back, in spite of all the obstacles in our way (namely dragging Brian away from Fallout for more than five minutes)!

Before we get to that, Dave tells us about some of the cool new party games he and the guys have been enjoying over Halloween at home. Then Brian finally gets to wax lyrical about his new life in Fallout 4.

On top of that we have all the big news stories of the week, including a couple of very strange ones, and our usual Book Club feature, where this week we give long overdue praise to one of the best games of this year- The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.

Welcome to the Link to The Cast Halloween Spooktacular!

....except, we kinda forgot it was Halloween til we were already recording, so we got nothing.....

Join us this week as Brian gives us a quick rundown of Wasteland 2: Electric Boogaloo, Dave celebrates beating The Witcher 3, and also had time to play WWE 2K16 and indie darling The Beginner's Guide.

On top of that we have a metric ton of news from Sony at Paris Games Week, a few non-PGW news notes, and Brian takes the reigns of the Book Club this week (for which there was a false start too funny to edit out), as he makes a case for the significance of Far Cry 2.

Back for more, it's another episode of Link To The Cast!

This week we've been playing a lot. Brian took the plunge on GTAV and Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection. Dave talks about Rock Band 4, The Star Wars Battlefront Beta, and Minecraft: Story Mode.

On top of that, we have the big headlines from the week in games, and a very special LTTC Book Club feature this week, taking a look at one of Dave and Brian's favourite games of the last several years: Bioshock Infinite.
