As you’d expect, the recent Xbox Game Showcase is on Adam, Chris, Mick, and Adam’s minds, so the gang go through their thoughts and feelings on all things Xbox Series X, Game Pass, and more.
Elsewhere, everyone has played or is playing Ghost of Tsuhima, and there’s some spicy listener correspondence to get through. Woof. Hot.
It's finally here, an open discussion on the plot and story of The Last of Us Part II.
It should be obvious to say, but we'll say it anyway: COMPLETE and total spoilers of ALL the plot of The Last of Us Part II. So we'd recommend not listening until you've finished the game. Or, we guess, if you don't care about spoilers AT ALL.

What is is about Nintendo and Sony releasing massive games in close proximity? Chris White has been playing Sucker Punch’s Ghost of Tsushima, and it might be the last amazing PS4 game before the new generation of consoles. Meanwhile, Adam Cook has played Paper Mario: The Origami King and loves it despite a few issues. On top of that, he’s become Tony Stark in Sony and Marvel’s Iron Man VR.
It’s a five-man podcast this week, as Chris White is here to talk about his three hours of hands-on with Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Mick Fraser is present to discuss the new SUPERHOT standalone expansion that isn’t a sequel, Adam Carroll is around to talk about how amazing (spoiler: this isn’t what he thinks) Deadly Premonition 2 is, Adam Cook has a little to say about Paper Mario: The Origami King, and (Posh) Chris “Heidi” Hyde is on the pod to, well to be roundly abused, it seems. Sorry Chris, we just give the people what they want.
Listener correspondence surrounds Xbox Series X, clothing faux-pas from the past, and what our last meal would be. So don’t miss that, and keep the questions coming!
It's the duo-name show, with Adam Cook, Adam Carroll, Chris White, and Chris Hyde - there is absolutely no way this can get confusing for the podcast crew, or you the listener. It's a good job the podcast is video now, too, right? Anyway, in game news, Adam (Cook) can't stop thinking about how great Fuser is, and thinks Adam (Carroll) will love it, and so will Chris (White). Chris (White) has been playing Crayta, a creation suite that Adam (Cook) wants to know about, and whether it's like Dreams.
Back to Adam (Cook) and he's started playing Trackmania, and has conflicting thoughts on the game. What has Chris (Hyde) been playing? The Last of Us Part II and Astroneer, of course, which is on Game Pass, so you should check that out after all the banging on we've done on the podcast about it, really.
Aside from telling us what they thought of the Marvel Avengers and Cyberpunk 2077 reveals, Adam Cook, Adam Carroll, Mick Fraser, and Chris "Heidi" Hyde have plenty to say about The Last of Us Part II still, but no spoilers whatsoever, of course.
On top of that it's time to tell some porky pies, or whoppers, from our past that the gang have heard. Pity they didn't hear the question properly, though...
This episode contains VERY mild (and brief) spoilers about The Last of Us Part II, specifically about a playable character.
Chris White is back to talk The Last of Us Part II with Adam, while Chris Hyde and Mick Fraser are dying to get involved. Mick has been on West of Dead, while the rest of the crew regale us with tales of Astroneer. The quartet goes through EA PLAY 2020 and sounds negative as hell without meaning to. Whoops.
We made it, 400 not out as the cricket lads say. But what an episode to be our number 400 (even though it's not really the 400th podcast, but just go with it, the numbers don't like, Mason!).
The PlayStation 5 has been revealed, The Last of Us Part II review is live, Desperados III is really good. Wow. What a week. There will be accents, questions, strange local businesses, and of course, Mr Lube.
Thank you so much for your support. We love you, and we love doing the podcast. 400... wow.
Astroneer has been keeping Adam Cook and Adam Carroll sane over the past week or so, and they can't stop thinking about it, talking about it, making an Astroneer podcast about it, and maybe dreaming about it! On top of that, Adam Cook has played BioShock on Switch, Skelattack, and a preview build of Desperados III, so there's plenty to discuss in this two-man episode.
As a brand new Minecraft game is out, of course the gang of Adam, Chris, Adam, and Gary have plenty to say about Minecraft Dungeons on this podcast. The fact the game is on Game Pass for Xbox made Adam Cook go back and play Astroneer, and he’s in love with that game right now.
Chris has been playing through the Mortal Kombat 11 addon, Aftermath, while Gary has been racing online and Adam Carroll has been attempting to get the platinum for Assassin’s Creed Origins. Wow.
Who influenced the team growing up, you ask? Well, we answer in this week’s listener correspondence. Thanks for sending questions as usual, we’ll be back to more Qs next week.
