The Boss Wave Podcast

This week Chris, Rob and Mark decide to strive for originality and show how different they are from all the other videogame podcasts by discussing the happenings of E3. They manage to go through just about all the most important anouncements and game trailers from the conferences and give their inane ramblings on everything that came up.

We know the episode title is rubbish but we couldn't think of anything as good as 'PRE3'.

Nothing this week (In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the FooMoo sleeps tonight).

This week the guys brilliantly get around the fact they have continued playing the same old games and have absolutely nothing new to say about them by wittering on for an hour and a half about E3 before the conference has even happened. This fiendishly clever plan worked brilliantly and the listeners will have no idea that this was just an amazing cover up for their incompetence.

Joining Chris, Rob and Mark this week is Boss Wave's erstwhile leader Seth McNitt to add his smooth tones and insider knowledge as he is actually going to be at E3 this year, meaning that at least one person on the show knows what they're talking about (unless he starts talking about Assassin's Creed).

This week Rob and Chris have actually managed to get someone to come on the show twice in a row (i11usive_man/[Redacted]/Exemptmrfish/Mark) and they once again discuss the weekly goings on in the gaming world. Fallout 4, Lego Worlds Alpha, Hatred, Splatoon, some Sony goings on (and lack of things going on) and a bunch of news that stopped being news shortly after they were announced... in the news. 

Moving onto what they've been playing, Rob is still trapped in Destiny and GTA5 but also managed to start Diablo 3, Mark has played The Witcher 3, Dark Souls 2 and Diablo 3 and Chris has been on Diablo 3, Portal Pinball, Dust and some mobile guff.

This week Rob and Chris are joined by i11usive_man/[Redacted]/Exemptmrfish/Mark/whatever he's going by this week and they discuss the weekly goings on in the gaming world. The Nintendo Humble Bundle, Rockstar's lawsuit against the BBC, the new Mad Max game story trailer and loads of other pointless rubbish, nothing escapes our steely gaze. 

Moving onto what they've been playing, Rob is still trapped in Destiny and GTA5 (it makes it easier to write this if I don't play anything different), Mark has played The Witcher 3, Bloodborne, Dark Souls 2 and Project Cars and Chris has been on Dead Nation, Towerfall and not Diablo 3.

This week Rob and Chris are joined by Stepjay and they discuss the various virtual reality and kickstarter happenings of the week as well as Bioware's Casey Hudson being Microsoft's new creative director and whether or not games cause psychiatric disorders.

Moving onto what they've been playing, Rob is still trapped in Destiny and GTA5, Stepjay has played Fall Down 2, Discover O, Jelly Jump, The Golf Club and FIFA Pro Clubs and Chris has been on Ys 7, Race the Sun and Order of Ecclesia.

Chris takes a break this week and leaves Rob to do the show all by himself. This didn't go so well but fortunately Seth came back to save the day. In a bumper news section they talk Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate, Witcher 3 Reviews, more Konami bullsh**, some Kickstarter news including Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night and more Assassins Creed.
Seth has been too busy to game but manages to get in some Dying Light while Rob gets in some more Destiny and GTAV.

This week Rob and Chris are joined by Amras from the Gamesman podcast to finally learn what a Nintendo is. They also discuss some Yooka-Laylee, Night Terrors, Project Cars and Castlevania in the news roundup.
Moving onto what they've been playing, Rob has been getting some more Destiny action, Unfinished Swan and some Shovel Knight, Amras has played Amiibo Tap, Pokemon Shuffle, Grand Theft Auto V, Minecraft, Elite: Dangerous and Chris has been on Dead or Alive 5, LocoRoco and Thunder Force IV.

This week Seth finally makes good on his promise leaving Chris and Rob to fend for themselves. Fortunately they get a little help from the man who was recently voted 'Nicest Man in Ireland', Mr Bongo The Sane. The guys mull over the latest hot gaming gossip including Konami and the Steam Mod fiasco and Rob and Bongo wax lyrical about the Arcade Club in Haslingden.

Switching to what they've been playing, Bongo talks some Ori and the Blind Forest, GTA V and a ton of retro, Rob has played more Destiny and a ton of retro and Chris has played Dust and Elysian Tale and a... well you get the idea.

Seth returns to help Rob and Chris through another car crash of a show. This week they discuss some Star Wars Battlefront, Gamestop going all Retro and talk way too long about some dude leaving Gearbox.

Rob has been playing Destiny again and made some more progress in Bloodborne and La Mulana EX, Chris played Titan Souls, Implosion and Freedom Planet while Seth got his teeth into Assassins Creed Chronicles: China.

With Seth moving on to greener pastures, there's only one thing Chris and Rob could do to ensure the good ship Boss Wave's course remains true... beg Seth to come on for another show. The boys talk some Mortal Kombat X, Titan Souls, Guitar Hero and more in the news and then get down to what they've been playin'. Seth has been on the GTA Heists, Chris on more Bloodborne, Monsterbag and some old school Castlevania while Verbal 'The Finisher' Rob gets through Axiom Verge, a bit of Bloodborne and some La Mulana EX. It won't be the same without Seth, but this week it actually is.
