There may have been a falling out at the E household. EA and E3 don't seem to turn up to gatherings together anymore. Now EA wants to come and stay on the couch. Should we let them?

We've also got the Annapurna presentation and the tyre fire over at Activision Blizzard to talk about and some of the usual suspects turn up for emotional support.

This week was filled with expectations. But have we been blessed with our fondest hardware wishes? For the answers we turn to Nintendo and... Valve?

Naturally we talk about Switch OLED and Steamdeck in this episode but SONY also tried to show us some things. We've got Horizon: Zero Dawn, Dyson Sphere Program, Deep Rock Galactic and more Breath of the Wild getting played too.

The sun over E3 might be setting but the shadow of Summer Games Fest is long. We've got some demo reports to carry on the fun. Also carrying some fun with him is guest DJKippling. Hopefuly he can replace some of the fun Dan stole from us before skipping off into the night.

In this episode: Chivalry 2, Terra Nil, Timbertown, The Rift Breaker, Super Mario Odyssey, Sable, VALORANT, Deep Rock Galactic and a few other things.

So apparently E3 is back and there's a LOT of games being shown. In this "news special" we'll have a little chat about each game that piqued our interest. Well done to the selected "still more than a few".

E3's not here yet, alright? Cool your jets OK. We've got a fairly relaxed episode to help bring you the calm.

In this episode we go mining, grinding, shooting and flying. There's a smidge of Sonic news and SONY showed some Horizon: Forbidden West.

All of the house moving interruptions have now been seen off so it's back to talking smack about power sockets and plumbing. Almost forgot there's a few games about too.

In this episode: Deep Rock Galactic, FFXII, Tony Hawk's 1+2, Banished and the nakedness of fruit.

The sun is setting on Rob's podcast "studio" but it shall rise again in pastures new. We shall send it off with a completely normal podcast. That seems fitting.

Not much happening in game news so there's plenty of room for important topics like modern toilets. We also played Yakuza 3, What the Golf, Genesis Noir, Among Us and Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, which was nice.

Gary Numan wants his cars back. They're his friends.

It's hot, fresh and 100% of a podcast (this time). It's a Monday SaladCast!

This week we talk about moving home, Switch Pro rumours, Yakuza 3, Satisfactory, Panzer Dragoon Remake and some standard recurrences.

It should come as no surprise in these unprecedented times that testing is important. Testing helps us discover what works and what doesn't. Rob failed to test new recording options thoroughly enough. Rob is sorry.

This week we cover some Square Enix news, Satisfactory updates, more Dirt 5, Stardew Valley and Control and the nature of grime.
