One Life Left

Is Simon wearing trousers? Is he a firestarter, a twisted firestarter?! Is any of this real any more? Maybe I'm AI and haven't even realised. Maybe we're all programmed by Ste! I think this has been considered before... I must need a defrag. Welcome, dear listeners, to another episode of One Life Left! This week we find out whose logo is biggest, Skull Island: Rise of Kong battles is up for worst game of the year but it's what's inside that counts and Netflix consider swooping for GTA. There's also another dose of ClickMate and the team ponder adventures in Japan. The excitement is building!

Have you been waiting for our intrepid duo in Regent's Park? Do you want to make a claim for travel expenses due to them not showing up?? If so then write to us at [email protected] and we'll look into your case. Or join our Discord! There you can leave a letter, expenses claim and join in the general banter. Link below!

TTFN,

Welcome once again to another episode of the One Life Left podcast! This week we have games making Ste poorly, Simon goes to EGX, hackers do hacking, kittens cause minor distraction, Joe Cornish's tv/radio hosting advice, Chris Conroy hangs around in Regent's Park, Molyneux uh oh and All The Mechanics! Plus the MS/Activision 100 Year Saga IS FINALLY OVER!!!! Possibly. Until something else happens. It's a bumper show! There's also more of that new feature from Simon that doesn't officially have a name yet (ClickMate?) so I'll continue to unimaginatively call it Simon Swipes Right. We've got more of that.

We asked and you delivered but we need more letters, please. MORE!! We crave your interaction via the medium of the written word!!! Deliver them lovingly to us at [email protected] or join our Discord! You can leave us a letter there as well. Link below!

Hello listeners. Ste here, because Undertaker Phil's computer has stopped working. In this episode: two old men talk about videogames. That's basically it but if you need more detail I've got you: Ste's clothing choice surprises Simon, Charlesbot yells the news over some slightly too loud audio, Animal Crossing causes emotional and financial problems, Simon's new feature returns (it needs a name) and there's one (ONE) letter from the ever-dependable Chris Conroy. We need more letters. Send us a letter. 

Discord link: http://hello.onelifeleft.com (there's a link to Ste's new game in there, but we don't talk about that on the show)

OK. That's everything. I'm serious about the letters and we also need a name for Simon's feature AND suggestions for things to do in Tokyo, which is fast approaching. You've got a lot on your to-do list but thanks for listening. We love you. See you soon xoxo.

Welcome to another episode of One Life Left! We're not on Twitch this week but we have just as much fun! We look at the state of the industry in light of the bad news from Sega, and others, Cyberpunk 2077 has a mission killer that you can still pay £25 quid for, Charlesbot applies for Jim Ryan's job at Sony and Ste has kittens! Plus Simon swipes right in a new feature that currently has no name and I'll continue to call it "Simon Swipes Right" until YOU, dear listeners, write in with a name for it!

There's another Maraoke for you, too! On Friday 13th October (we laugh in the face of superstitions!) at The Caf, Canary Wharf, London from 7pm. A link for tickets is below!

We emptied our virtual sack of letters last week so PLEASE send us some more!! Fire them to us at [email protected] or join our Discord and pop us a message on there. Link below!

Well, what can I say?! Last week we had an OLL EXCLUSIVE and we didn't even realise it! We proved the old F-Zero rule wrong and Simon correctly announced the F-Zero news before Nintendo did! Witchcraft?! This week Simon holds the fort while Ste gallivants around London, calling in from random places and avoiding being mugged. Simon isn't alone, though - he's joined once more by Super Special Guest Tony Gowland, here to talk about the launch of his new game: Dungeon Golf (out now!)

There's also iPhone 15 Pro info, CharlesBot getting very ranty about F-Zero, far fewer technical hiccups than you might imagine would happen and a Unity royalty fee spree, see? Plus letters, reviews and don't forget we have a Maraoke event in Bristol next Wednesday 27th September. A link is below!

Speaking of letters: please send more of them, general observations and/or any grievances to us at [email protected] for inclusion in a future show, or join our Discord and chuck a letter at us there. Link below!

This week, dear listeners, the show is driven by two things: Pure scandal, from the offset, by one of your beloved hosts and, of course, Starfield, because we can't not cover the hottest gaming topic at the moment. It may last a few weeks. We'll see. Regarding the scandal - hop onto our Discord server IF YOU DARE for an exclusive screenshot of the incident that our press office had to work their socks off to avoid hitting the tabloids! Warning: it's not for those of a nervous disposition!

Beyond that there's Nintendo in a "will they/won't they reveal anything about F-Zero ever again" shocker (remember the rule: it's always never F-Zero...) and Charlesbot has a lot to think about regarding the possibility of a Broken Sword exclusivity deal...

There's also Maraoke info!! We have a Maraoke for you coming up in Bristol on Wednesday 27th September. A link for info and tickets is below.

Why do people keep ringing doorbells at lunchtime? Do we really believe Ste was just "looking for his phone"?? Let us know what you think and hurl your questions plus suggestions for our impending Twitch show to [email protected] or leave letters/suggestions/etc on our Discord. Link below!

Welcome back, dearest listeners, to a new season of One Life Left: the podcast edition of the video game radio show! Hope you've had a great summer! This week we tell you all about our adventures over the past month or so, especially at Gamescom, plus there's topless Ste shenanigans, Starfield in early access (though it'll definitely be out by the time you read this, anyway), Sony shares skyrocketing, Charlesbot wrestling with PlayStation Portal prices and overheard conversations...

Meanwhile, as an exclusive for our beloved podcast fans, the intro includes details of our upcoming appearance on the Yogscast Twitch channel for another Pickaxe Podcast Week type thing - if it hasn't already been officially announced then it has now! We will be live on September 26th and we need you to email in and tell us what to actually do! As well as joining us on the day etc...

Who rang Ste's doorbell? Do you have any friends from Iceland?? How much is your Star Wars stuff worth??? Let us know and fire your questions for us to [email protected] or check out our Discord and leave a letter there. Link below!

This is it, dear listeners - the LAST SHOW EVER (this season)! And what a belter we have for you this week... we have Simon throwing a ball over a house (see our Discord for unquestionable proof), rebuilding Gameboys, Charlesbot plays Hunt the Pikachu with Wifebot, Microsoft might finally be killing the "Gamepass Ultimate Upgrade Hack", Nintendo DS charger difficulties, Ste goes to the PC Zone 30th Birthday bash and The Adventures of TV John (which is arguably better than the last two Indiana Jones films put together). Plus all the usual video game related news, letters and reviews!

Meanwhile, did Simon call Ste 'Steve'? This is the end of season cliffhanger that everyone will be discussing all through summer! Fire your letters to us at [email protected] or hop onto our Discord and leave a letter for us there, as well as joining in the chat with other like-minded listeners! Letters may/may not win a prize, you never know! Link below!

And now it's time to put the boys back in their box for their long summer rest. Say "bye bye, Bainsy"... "bye bye, Steve"... We hope you all have a great summer, dear listeners. See you in September.

TTFN,

In this week's challenging episode, Charlesbot 1.1 fries a circuit when dealing with the MS/Activision resolution(?) news story and almost breaks the show, if not the very internet! Being the professionals that we are, we battle on and wrestle with an easy access battery future, the Gex trilogy coming out again and lots of Develop stuff! We also have an unboxing of the Data Frog SF2000 handheld console and we discover what Simon really thinks of Ste!! (Jingles were added in post, should anyone be confused by talk about them not working...)

Next week is the last episode before the Summer holidays so it'll be non-uniform and everyone can bring in a game or toy to play with.

Meanwhile, do you think Major Nelson is joining OLL? Should Simon get a red light for his shed and what will the neighbours think?? Let us know by firing your letters to us at [email protected] or join our Discord and pop a letter there. Link below!
