What the listener didn’t expect, was to discover that most of the podcast seemed to be about things that had nothing to do with the games mentioned in the usual list of topics. “How queer,” they said. “How very, very queer”.

Episode 78 brings together the talking force of deKay, Kendrick, Orrah and Toby and they use their powers to speak words on subjects such as Embracer’s employee cull, Creative Assembly’s employee (and game line-up) cull, Why Creative Assembly Lost Their Way With The Total War Series, What Ben Croshaw Did Next, and mountains of games including these:

• Vampire Survivors
• Lies of P
• Sketch Share Solve
• Tokyo Xanadu eX+
• Doraemon: Story of Seasons
• Stranded: Alien Dawn
• The Riftbreaker
• Homeworld Remastered
• Spiderhyphenman Remastered
• Crusader Kings 3
• Virtua Cop Elite Edition
• Gunvari Collection
• House of the Dead Remake
• Starsky and Hutch
• House of the Dead III

And, as always, other stuff. Why not listen for yourself to find out exactly what, eh? That’s sort of the point of the podcast.

It is with great pleasure that we present to you our most newest edition (until the next one, anyway) of the world-beloved ugvm Podcast! Warm your toes by the fire of Episode 77. For it is indeed a fire. In a bin.

In this exciting episode, deKay, Kendrick and Luffer try very hard to fill the required number of minutes with such diverse topics as Formula E’s foray into the NFT/blockchain game, an upcoming Kickstarter title called Night Stones, and why the Quest 3 both proves and disproves why VR is and isn’t dead. Plus, bonus chat about edible leather footwear for some reason, and words and noises about these games and more:

• Detroit: Become Human
• Stray
• Uncharted 4: The One With the Subtitle We Couldn’t Remember
• Life is Strange
• Flashback
• Dino Game
• Pear Quest
• Doraemon: Story of Seasons
• Tokyo Xanadu
• Lord Winklebottom Investigates

And, somehow, more. Listen!

There are very few certainties in this world, but one of them is guaranteed disappointment in your ears when you listen to a new episode of the ugvm Podcast. Like this one, Episode 76!

This time, deKay, Toby and Kendrick break with established norms and talk about games. Oh, wait, no. That’s what they usually do. OK, have some Action Man chat instead – that’s not been covered before. Plus, news about Xbox Leaks, Unity, Toby’s Attempt To Coax You Into Youtube Hell, Amazon Luna, Nexus Mods and how the US entertainment strikes have moved on to games now. There’s also a show report (apparently this is a thing we do semi-regularly now) of the Insomnia Gaming Festival and the ALGS Championship final hosted therein. If all that wasn’t enough, then what about these?

• Llamatron
• Lies of P
• Mighty Doom
• Tomb Raider Reloaded
• 40 Winks
• Doraemon Story of Seasons
• HoloCure
• Tokyo Xanadu EX+
• Tokyo Xanadu (uh, no, really)

Then! More stuff! Questions answered! Waffles toasted!

Hark! A podcast! Verily, the ugvm gentlemen have returned with dulcet voices and witty repartee in Episode 74.

In this episode, deKay, Kendrick and Toby partake in discussion of such things as Ubisoft deleting accounts, Valorant Premier Season 2, Baten Kaitos, Super Pocket – the Evercade that isn’t an Evercade, and for some reason, Skibidi Toilet.
