Just in time to finish recording immediately before the Nintendo Direct so we couldn’t cover it, here’s Episode 14. Like the secret of comedy, it’s all about timing. Note: there may be no comedy.

In this episode, deKay finds some sailors, Choobs is waiting for a leopard, Luffer is suffering from animal magnetism, and Kendrick talks a lot about some game nobody else has heard of or cares about.

Despite missing the Direct, there’s some predictions and early announcement chat, we mention the Game Maker’s Toolkit Jam, news about the Neo Geo Mini and reimagined Atari VCS, Persona 3 and 5 spinoffs, and all of these games:

• Judge Eyes/Project Judge
• Diablo III
• Civilisation VI
• Atelier Arland
• Yakuza Kiwami 2
• Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise
• Shenmue
• No Man’s Sky
• Hollow Knight
• Two Point Hospital
• Turing Test
• Golf Story
• Disc Drivin’ 2
• Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate
• Divinity: Original Sin II

And wouldn’t you know, some listener questions too. Lovely.

This month’s Adventures In Internet Wonkiness fun created some interesting conversation but we’re 100% sure you won’t notice any of the problems and it has nothing to do with being Episode 13 anyway, honest.

In this episode, Kendrick reveals an alarming secret, deKay reveals an alarming playtime, Luffer has an alarming Switch coincidence, and Toby is drinking and outs his alarming horse vein fetish.

Oh, and some game stuff! It is, after all, a game related podcast. Despite that, there’s more on the never ending ZX Vega+ saga, the Super Smash Bros Nintendo Direct, ROM site shutdowns, Quakecon, Discord taking on Steam, NES and SNES Classics, some new game teasers and trailers, the goddamn Palm Pilot, and all these games:

• Doom Eternal
• Quake Champions
• Red Dead Redemption 2
• Disaster Report 4
• Quest of Dungeons
• No Man’s Sky
• Yakuza 0
• Mario Odyssey
• Captain Toad Treasure Tracker
• Rayman Legends
• Death Squared
• Picross Adventure
• Stranger of Sword City
• Portal 2
• Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare
• Splatoon 2

Plus, because yes, there’s more, listener questions, general waffle and more sidetracking than Skyrim.

E3 was a long, long time ago and we’ve all forgotten about what was announced at it and nobody cares any more anyway. So about time we did another podcast, yes?

In this episode, deKay plays a game which isn’t what he expected, Luffer plays no games (as expected), Zo has bought all the games expecting them all to be played, and Choobs unexpectedly has a banjo.

We chat about what a difference a single byte makes to Aliens Colonial Marines, lots of Switch news, Steam having a hands-off approach to their store, and – bafflingly – Twitch. Oh yeah, and the ZX Vega+ because well why not? Plus, all these games:

• Warframe
• Phantasy Star Online
• Elite Dangerous
• Monster Hunter Generations
• Death Road to Canada
• Dwarf Fortress
• Drawception
• Yorkshire Gubbins
• Chibi-Robo Zip Lash!
• The Count Lucanor
• Sanrio Characters Picross
• Quest of Dungeons
• Mutant Mudds Collection
• Gran Turismo Sport
• Horizon Zero Dawn

And some other stuff, including some listener questions and the usual nonsense.

In a change to our normal podcast format, deKay, Zo, Kendrick and Tim comment on every single game shown at the main E3 conferences. All of them. Which is why this episode is so damn long.

Before that, we have a quick chat about what we’ve been playing:

• Pokemon Quest
• Fallout Shelter
• Detroit: Become Human
• Call of Duty: WW2
• Horizon Zero Dawn
• Batman: The Enemy Within
• Dark Souls Remastered
• Life is Strange
• Metal Gear Solid
• Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: India

And then it’s onto E3 chat that goes on almost as long as the Super Smash Bros bit of the Nintendo Direct.

In the future, you’ll reminisce about where you were and what you were doing on the day the great ugvm podcast episode 10 came out. Well, you might. Trauma does things to your head, mang.

In this historically accurate episode, deKay plays a game aimed at eight year olds, Choobs plays a number of seemingly identical games, Luffer plays virtually no games at all, and Zo plays a God of War game which both isn’t God of War but is God of War. Confused? We were never confused.

We chat about the Battlefield V: There’s A Woman In It trailer, everyone’s favourite vapourware the ZX Vega+ (again, sorry), the new dockless Switch, Biohazard/Resident Evil 7 coming to the Switch sort of, Rainway, the mystery of the missing PS4 Pros, the NES Classic (and new Famicom Classic), and all these games:

• Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate Kiss Kiss
• No Man’s Sky
• Star Trek: Bridge Crew
• Fairune Collection
• Yakuza 5
• Detective Pikachu
• God of War
• Batman: The Enemy Within
• Until Dawn: Rush of Blood
• WipEout VR
• Frostpunk
• Judgement: Apocalypse Survival Simulator
• Yorkshire Gubbins
• Xenoblade Chronicles 2
• Fire Emblem Warriors
• Hyrule Warriors
• Mafiascum
• EuroTruck Simulator VR

And some listener questions, stuff about E3, and general waffle. Mmm, waffles.
