Electronic Wireless Show Ep 56 - The Gamescom Special 2018 Aug 23, 2018

Show notes

We're in Cologne! It's Gamescom, the yearly games show, where we've been looking at Cyberpunk 2077, Metro Exodus, Biomutant, Dying Light 2, Ape Out, Wolfenstein: Cyberpilot and many more. We recorded this after the first day of the show, in an echoey hotel room, so apologies for the sound quality. We’ve since played Sekiro, Anthem, Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord, Battlefield V, and lots more. So keep an eye out for more write-ups and videos at rockpapershotgun.com.

Electronic Wireless Show Ep 55 - The worst endings Aug 16, 2018

Show notes

Good end, bad end, noncommittal end. But what are the worst endings of all time? Matt reckons the big ol’ fart noise at the end of Mass Effect 3’s deserves a mention. And Noa thinks Dragon Age: Inquisition’s final moments were rubbish. Meanwhile, Brendan doesn’t like the ending of Tacoma. What? Shut up, Brendan. But we’ve also been polishing memories in Finding Paradise, hacking chocolate bars in Exapunks, and punching the money out of people’s faces in Yakuza 0. Super.

Electronic Wireless Show Ep 54 - The best openings Aug 02, 2018

Show notes

Then the bus EXPLODED. Hello, we're talking about the best game openings this week. Cold opens or slow burns, we love a good first impression. Matthew and Brendan are both boring, however, and pick all the usual suspects, from BioShock to Half-Life 2. But there are some unexpected loves too. We’ve also been playing No Man’s Sky and Dead Cells. And there's a game opening quiz too. Hooray!

Electronic Wireless Show Ep 53 - What is your dream game? Jul 26, 2018

Show notes

We’re talking about our dream games - games we want but don't exist so far. John wants a Robinson Crusoe style survival game that isn’t so punishing to those who can’t reach the good coconuts. Brendan wants an open world talk ‘em up with obscene amounts of detail. Speaking of dream games, John has also been playing No Man’s Sky again, following the recent update. He hasn’t tried multiplayer yet, but much has changed, not always for the better.

Electronic Wireless Show Ep 52 - The best music, songs and soundtracks Jul 19, 2018

Show notes

We're talking about music in games this week, and what makes a good soundtrack. The bleeps and bloops of Pac Man, or the orchestras of Oblivion? We’ve also done a music quiz! Can you guess the game based on a few seconds of music? Alice likes the music from the Fallout series, while Brendan is more into the chiptune of VVVVVV. Katharine is a devourer of music and even goes to concerts for Final Fantasy music.

Electronic Wireless Show Ep 51 - The best magic and spells Jul 12, 2018

Show notes

Let's chat magic in games! What are our favourite spells? Should magic be chaotic? Or should it be arranged in an orderly tome? Alice likes the competing forces of technology and magic in Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura, while Matthew tells us about a Japanese import of Ni No Kuni on Nintendo DS which came with a real spellbook. But we’ve been playing stuff too. Alice has been shouting at gravity in anti-platformer Youropa, and Matthew has been trying to cope with the size of Egypt in Assassin’s Creed Origins. A special thanks to Chris McDowall for the theme suggestion. May your life be full of good magic and only a moderate amount of chaotic magic. If you want to suggest a theme for a future episode, please email podcast@rockpapershotgun.com.

Electronic Wireless Show Ep 50 - Who are our favourite NPCs? Jul 04, 2018

Show notes

Non-player characters! Whether they’re annoying companions, side characters, or disembodied human heads, let’s talk about some of our favourites. John likes nice people, like Nicole Collard from Broken Sword, or Alyx Vance from Half-Life 2. Brendan likes the plucky passport forger in Papers Please who won’t take no for an answer. And Alice wants to carry around Murray the skull from Curse of Monkey Island. We’ve also played things. John has been smashing his car up in The Crew 2. Brendan has been kickflipping and faceplanting in OlliOlli 2. Whereas Alice has been puzzling through the calm architecture of Starman: Tale of Light.

Soundbyte, Episode 1 - Unionising The Games Industry Jun 29, 2018

Show notes

Welcome to Soundbyte, an audio mini-series that explores topics in the games industry. In our first episode, Astrid Johnson talks us through unionisation in the games industry. She speaks to Doug Cockle, aka Geralt of Rivia, about his negative experiences in the recording booth, and ‘Emma’ from Game Workers Unite, who explains the challenges of unionising. On top of that, we hear from two worker-owned studios, including the creators of Dead Cells.

Electronic Wireless Show Ep 49 - The games we weren't allowed to play Jun 28, 2018

Show notes

Let's talk about the naughty games we weren’t allowed to play as youngsters (but did anyway). Alice suffered strict rationing of The Sims 2, and Dave was scolded about Silent Hill. Although, Brendan’s parents didn’t seem to care about GTA 2. And we’re still sneaking games today. Alice has been kidnapping policemen in Cultist Simulator, while Dave has been scurrying around in Ghost of a Tale. Also, keep your earholes primed for some bonus facts about axolotls.

Electronic Wireless Show Ep 48 - The best and worst of E3 2018 Jun 21, 2018

Show notes

E3 is over, but that won’t stop us. We pick out our favourite games and oddest moments from the LA show. But we’re also introducing two new voices this week: Alice Bell and Noa Smith. Alice is excited for Ashen and enjoyed Andrew WK’s performance at Bethesda’s press event. Noa is looking forward to Beyond Good and Evil 2, but also the smiling veggies of Ooblets. And Brendan tells the story of how Hideo Kojima mildly inconvenienced him while visiting the show. Oh, and of course everyone is intrigued by Cyberpunk 2077.
