You know, as crazy as it sounds the Fallout 4 talk may have died down. That's really not true, but at least we have other games to talk about this week. Brian opens this week with King's Quest and Journey for the PS4. Stephen is next, and expands on LA Cops. Anthony talks Xenoblades X and more Fallout 4 prompting Justin to chime in. Ending with him talking about Steamworld Heist for the 3DS.

Can you believe it? We’re still talking Fallout 4. Justin and Anthony open up this episode with more of their continuing tale in The Commonwealth. After that, Anthony, talks about Xenoblade Chronicles X which came out this week. A very impressive game. Brian also plays some more Fallout 4 and Tomb Raider, but throws us a curveball with Knight Squad. Stephen wraps up again with the iOS game Monument Valley (which Brian played too), and his tease of LA Cops and To The Moon.

It’s a day after Thanksgiving, but that isn’t going to stop us from talking about games. This week we talk about the games we were thankful for this year. But before we do that, we have a nice Under Your Thumb this week. Anthony and Justin lead off, and what do you know, more Fallout 4. Anthony also had another game to talk about: Blood Bourne: Old Hunters DLC. Brian’s next and talks more Tomb Raider and blows Justin’s mind with Fallout 4 remote play. The ultimate toilet game. Finally, Stephen brings some games to the table. Fallout 3, Mario Kart DS, and Xenoblade Chronicles were all Under His Thumb this week.

The Fallout 4 talk continues, leaving Stephen out in the cold. Maybe one day he'll be able to get it together. That leaves Anthony, Brian, and Justin to continue to talk about their time in the Fallout 4 world. Stephen, however, does bring a game or two to the table this week. Simcity for the SNES and Super Mario World. Brian also has additional games. He first touches back on 'Rise of the Tomb Raider' and it carries on being a pretty game. Then he drops a mobile game: 'Smashy Road'.

We're just counting down the days now to the Fallout 4 release (some of us, anyway). But before it consumes this podcast we've got a another Under Your Thumb to deliver.

Stephen leads off and finally has something to talk about, however brief. For his first of two games, he tries his hand at the Triforce Heros demo, but is forced to abandon that ship because of Nintendo's inane stipulations. The second was the 2013 release of Tomb Raider. He knows one thing: she's definitely British. Justin was on deck and talks more Halo 5 and Assassins Creed. He's really just checking in. Anthony finishes his thoughts on Evil Within and then takes a shot on Fallout 3: New Vegas. Just in the nick of time. Brian cleans up this week with a nice mix. He's got Halo 4, Costume Quest, Dragon Fin Soup, and a mobile title called Rop. I'll let you guess which one of these is the stinker.

The drunken news is a well oiled machine this week. Candy Crush buyouts, Halo 5 sales, a black Friday sale, and a discussion on making the best use of the gaming medium.

It's the big Halo 5 week and we bring in a returning guest and our resident Halo expert Gary Hines to help. It's an in-depth look at a game that has long been anticipated. We also manage to sprinkle a few other games in there as well. Stephen is shooting blanks this week so we quickly move on from his non-week. Brian sheds some more light on White Night, and sprints his way through Halo 4 (or not). Anthony does a horror block with White Night, Slenderman Arrival, Evil Within, and Outlast. Justin gives Assassin's Creed Syndicate a go. And I think we all know what Gary has been up to.

In The Drunken News, things get weird. We talk about a kinder Goldeneye, a still broken Arkham Knight for the PC, Xbox One's update in November, and a canceled Darth Maul game.

It's a Halloween themed episode. We all tried to play games that have a Halloween "feel". Some of us better (Brian) than others. Anthony leads us off (what else is new?) and takes a step back to Yoshi's Woolly World and Dragon Quest Heros, the latter of which has become boring. Brian revels in that fact. But his Halloween game? The Evil Within. Brian on the other hand brings his 'A' game. And we all couldn't be more shamed. His first Halloween themed game is, Costume Quest 2. A podcast favorite at this point. Brian shows us how it's done with a second Halloween themed game, White Night, a game we first experienced at PAX East 2015. Justin steps in next with some finishing thoughts on Stints Row Re-elected. Then he brings his best treat with the game How To Survive, to thunderous applause. Stephen closes out this spookfest out with a Japan only fan translated game known as Clock Tower.

The news, now known as "The Drunken News", is jam-packed with great topics.  We've got weird changes to Uncharted 4's script, what to expect from Halo 5's multiplayer, Kojima's departure non-departure, and Aonuma's surprise twist for an open world Zelda.

A game-packed week for us. Justin returns and leads off with Valiant Hearts  and the Star Wars Battlefront beta. He then continues his adventure with Ocarina of Time 3D. Stephen's up next with much ado about nothing. Though, he has a few choice words for the Xbox 360 update process. Anthony puts us back on the rails with Super Meat Boy, Monster Hunter, Dragon Ball XenoVersem, and Dragon Quest Heros for the PS4. Followed by Brian's trip to New York Comic Con where he got the chance to play a few games: Dragon Quest Heros, Final Fantasy Explorers, Just Cause 3, Street Fighter 5, and Guitar Hero Live. He also arrived bearing gifts. Which you should check out. We cap off Under Your Thumb this week with all of us taking about Yoshi's Woolly World. Where Stephen and Justin tell of how quickly they mastered the mechanics and dominated the game. Completely factual.

The news brings us lots. Such as, DLC, fans of Square-Enix paying for translations, and some possible new details for the Nintendo NX.

As we get closer to Fallout 4 season, Justin, finds that he needs a bit of a break. But that's okay, because we bring in our old pal, Lucas Cattabriga, to fill his shoes this week.

And with that, Brian opens up with a free game on PlayStation Plus right now: Super Meat Boy. A game Anthony also indulged in this week, too. If you haven't heard, it's a challenge. Brian also got to try his hand at the Star Wars Battlefront Beta. Next, Stephen briefly mentions his continued time with Super Mario 3D Land, and this time he tries the 3D effect. He discovers Brian may have been on to something (or on something). Anthony then talks a bit of Super Meat Boy and Broken Age. Followed by a lengthy (Fallout style) discussion of Dragon Ball XenoVerse. We wrap up Under Your Thumb with Lucas and his time with Destiny: The Taken King DLC. You won't want to miss that.

The news this week is only here to remind us that it's getting closer to the holidays and things are ramping up. We talk PS4 price drops and bundles, Halo 5 going gold, and the lack of microtransactions in Battlefront.
