Tensions rise between all of the hosts as David has a thing or two to say about Mat’s editing. The show moves on to talk about why Steam Boxes failed, whether big budget games have to avoid political issues in order to not alienate an audience and despite A Way Out being disappointing, why they would still recommend you play it. But I’ll be honest, everyone is on tenterhooks throughout.   Listen A...

This week Mat lacked the persistence to play Sea of Thieves so David summons the help of James and Jon to talk about it. David could have spoken about it on his own but he really couldn’t be bothered to put all that effort in himself, so instead let the others do it while he sat back and took the credit. Some may think David is a coward for doing this. Actually, most people would. It really shows...
