This week we’re joined by Janet Garcia, aka @gameonysus!

In terms of news, at the time of recording there was a rumour that Halo Infinite’s standalone multiplayer mode might release on Monday 15th November (and it did!), so we discussed that.

In other news: Elden Ring network test keys are being sold for hundreds on eBay, SteamDeck and Playdate are delayed, and the GTA Trilogy is a mess.

Speaking of which, Mat and Janet talk about the GTA Trilogy ‘Definitive Edition’, we’ve all got things to say about Forza Horizon 5, and Sean discovers a new side to himself in VR.

All that plus the US vs UK, the pronunciation of “Forza”, advent calendars, buffet etiquette, milk updates, and more. 

Games Discussed: Forza Horizon 5, Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition, Call of Duty Vanguard, Titanfall 2, Blade and Sorcery.

David, Sean, James and Mat are here to discuss Deck Nine's 'Life is Strange: True Colors' in its entirety. 

We cover everything in Life is Strange: True Colors, including the characters, the plot points, our choices, and our thoughts on the game overall.

It goes without saying, but if you haven’t played True Colors, or if you don’t want to know anything about the game, turn this spoilercast off IMMEDIATELY, then come back once you’ve finished it.
