In this special edition of The Finger Guns Podcast Rossko sits down with Digital Cybercherries' Joe Henson to talk everything Hypercharge Unboxed, ahead of the games release on PS5 and PS4 at the end of the month.

Rossko and Joe get into developing for PlayStation, the initial Xbox release and the decision to avoid Game Pass, the importance of preserving the classic gaming experience and a whole lot more. Did you know it's a tedious process selecting what will be Achievements and Trophies? Well, you will after listening to this.

This week Rossko, Josh and Kat talk all about the Marathon plagiarism controversy and how Bungie get themselves out of this particular corner. It's not looking good. Still! On a lighter note we discuss the possibility of a shiny new Red Dead Redemption 2 remaster coming to modern systems (including Switch 2) and find we would prefer another Rockstar classic remastered instead. Oh, and there's an AI Darth Vader in Fortnite. SAG-AFTRA aren't happy. I wonder why?!

In Game of the Week, Josh and Rossko have been playing Doom The Dark Ages and they having a bit of a journey with it, let's just say that. Kat has been fully addicted to the almighty Phasmophobia and has finally started and finished Life is Strange 2. Rossko has also been playing the surprisingly exciting City Bus Simulator and continues to suck at Hitman.

We're back! Thanks to Rossko falling asleep at the wrong time last week we couldn't get an episode out but we're here now and we talk Clair Obscur Expedition 33, Grand Theft Auto 6 getting officially delayed, Half-Life 3 apparently being 'playable' end-to-end and Gears of War Reloaded and a quick rant on Xbox upping their console and accessory prices.

Miles has been playing the PS5 version of Indiana Jones and The Great Circle and had a grand ol' time along with Two Falls (Nishu Takuatshina), an adventure game set during colonialism in Canada. Yeah, it's well fun. Josh has been checking out Post Trauma along with Clair Obscur Expedition 33 (which Rossko is also playing), whilst Rossko talks the really rather lovely football game-that's-not-a-football-game Despolote.
