Welcome friends, to Episode 8 of the world’s greatest sort of monthly-ish video game podcast with “ugvm” in the title. Well, OK. Top three.

In this episode, deKay has a lost weekend, Tim is obsessed with the worst Bullfrog game ever, Luffer is the Goddamn Batman, and Choobs has a yacht. Because of course he has. Also: Cake Winslet.

We talk about and/or discuss Game Maker 2 supporting the Switch, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds on your telephone, the massive expense of the Vive Pro, changes to the UK video game charts, and all these games:

• Elite Dangerous
• Vostok Inc
• Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: China
• Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation
• Dragon Quest Builders
• Batman: The Telltale Series
• Batman: The Enemy Within
• Stage 9

It’s episode 7! That’s seven whole episodes. Seven. Seven.

This episode, deKay bores everyone about Yokai, Kendrick literally breaks, Zo fails to explain why Burnout 3 is the best Burnout (probably because it isn’t), and Luffer gets very tired standing up.

There’s important chat about internet connected tractors, that stuff you put on your fingernails which is supposed to stop you biting them and what is actually classed as a kitten. Also, less important chat about actual video games, the ZX Vega+ once again, Luigi’s Super Balloon Happy Fun Time, and all these games:

Well would you look at that – we all made it to 2018 after all. Mostly intact too!

This episode, deKay is baffled that others don’t share his Hyrule Warriors love, Kendrick mourns what could have been in TxK, and Zo can’t make up his mind about, well, anything he’s played really.

We also chat about the recent Nintendo Direct Mini and the Nintendo Labo reveal, Retro-Bit’s new controller deal with Sega, the upcoming Fist of the North Star game, the Xbox Elite controller, and what battles would make a good Warriors game. And all these!

• What Remains of Edith Finch
• Fire Emblem Warriors
• Undertale
• Assassin’s Creed Origins
• Wolfenstein 2
• TxK
• Bloodborne: The Old Hunters

Then we answer a veritable plethora (that is, more than two) of listener questions. Some of which are actually quite interesting. Most aren’t.

This episode, deKay absolutely hasn’t been drinking, Kendrick ruins Christmas for everyone, Toby is all about the legs, and Lorfarius just wants pirates and sailors in his stocking. ALSO FEATURING: The best video connectivity pun ever crafted.

We discuss the ZX Vega+ again, and also the somewhat more successful ZX NEXT, as well as the latest PS+ and Games With Gold titles, Shenmue III, the Xbox One X, Christmas NiGHTS (well of course), toilets, and all these games:

Not only that, we answered a load of questions you lot provided too! No wonder it’s almost two hours long. Sorry. Merry Christmas?
