One Life Left

This week OLL is coming home, we're Shure of it! We talk about AAA games not doing well on iPhone, a grown man having a tantrum at Nintendo, the Cyberpunk sequel being more American and Steam members having a lot of unplayed games! We also reveal that Ste is not a Saudi prince and Simon doesn't appear to be a fan of the Tour de France. And, yes, I appear to have fixed the issues Ste mentions in th...

Iiiiiiin this week's episode of the longest running video game radio show in the English language we have Keef Stuart's skin-care regime, a Nintendo leak runs dry, Elden Ring's DLC doesn't go down well and GAME to sell what, exactly? Or are they carrying on as "normal"?! Who knows... There's also part 1 of what is possibly a one part series from Simon on "How to Set Up a Political Party" in our ex...

This week we have blown over tomato plants, collapsing gazebos, how to get Steam games cheaper (just launch a class action against Valve), a Ubisoft dev can help us ignore Musk, SW: Outlaws might be boring and Xbox might get a handheld. Meanwhile one of our presenters might be getting cancelled but can you guess which one?! We also discuss Steam's recent Next Fest and the Mad(rid) Games Show! Do y...

Welcome to another episode of One Life Left, the video game radio show presented by Simon "Undisputed King of Comedy" Byron and Ste "Product of a Thatcherite Economy" Curran! On this week's episode we discuss the prices for Summer Games Fest, Blumhouse hit a six, Tetris now demands your blood and Ste applies for a job in a pixelated Ikea. What a load of Roblox! We also get an update on Ste and Sim...

Thanks to our podcast platform having a hiccup, everything I'd originally written and hyperlinked got wiped out but, unlike a corrupted video game save that put me off playing a game for life, I can't walk away this time so, here, these are not the greatest show notes in the world, no, these are just a tribute... This week we have, albeit briefly, the Origin Story of Why Simon is in The Shed. Kind...

This week Simon briefly sounds like a robot (but it's not the mics fault, corporate overlords!) and Ste doesn't go to Buckingham Palace but, hold the front page, WE HAVE AN SSG!!! We're joined by Jupiter Hadley who tells us all about new indie game showcase Brilliant Indie Treasures which is aiming to take down Develop whilst also helping us to execute a bank heist. While those two things may fail...

We have corporate overlords! We now influence people! Hear our "wonderful" voices in all their "glory" thanks to the new microphones we've been gifted by the lovely folk at Shure and then click on this link and, maybe, buy one for yourselves!! https://tag.gs/OneLifeLeft_Shure (In all seriousness, I used to use Shure mics back when I was in a band and again when doing production work and they're re...

Welcome, dear listeners, to another podcast edition of the One Life Left video game radio show and another set of lovingly hand-crafted, "artisanal", show notes with zero AI influence whatsoever! This week Simon holds in his wee to bring you this show, we mention something questionable (but definitely biological so it's OK) at least twice, Ryan Reynolds' Wrexham football club (and nobody else) get...

Hello listener! PhilBot here with this week's show notes for this week's show! On this week's podcast episode of One Life Left, Europe's first and only dedicated videogames FM radio show, the conversation includes: 1) Portugese Football Shops. 2) Apple Welcome Retro Emulators Back. 3) Microsoft Meddling with AI Support Bots. 4) Roblox Development Not Exploitation. 5) Absolute nonsense (From BAFTA)...

We're back after a week off due to globe trotting shenanigans aplenty! This week we have rumours from GDCs past, Simon's embarrasing embrace(r) story, Capcom are top of Metacritic/does anyone care about Metacritic anymore? Dragon's Dogma moaning, Shinobi (Guerrilla) Warfare and Ubisoft jump on the AI bandwagon! There's also a GDC 2024 report from Simon and Maraoke plus Black Diamond updates from S...

There's shenanigans afoot this week and it only dawned on me while putting these notes together of the potentially top level criminal activities afoot in the UK games industry! In amongst the weekly dose of totally innocent fare we have two seemingly unconnected stories from Simon: Peter Molyneux's car breaks down... Then Simon gets his car carjacked... Come to your own conclusions, dear listeners...

This week we're riddled with doom, gloom and a cheat code that blows Hot Coffee cold! Hang on tight, this one's a rollercoaster... It includes a Helldiver 2 related ruse, Balatro ratings shenanigans, beer drinking in a playground and Charlesbot shows he's somewhat out of touch with modern Mums! On the exclusive podcast intro, Simon prepares himself a delicious pot noodle-esque "meal" that may or m...

Welcome to another episode of One Life Left, dearest listeners! In this week's fun filled episode we discover that Xbox exclusives are no longer exclusives, Capcom go down the "better late than never" route for apologies, Doom is finally playable on a lawnmower and then there's something about Suicide Squad. In the podcast exclusive intro we discuss 'that' trailer... you know the one... Meanwhile...

Hello dearest listeners! This week Baldur's Gate 3 wins awards, the Silent Hill 2 remake trailer isn't good, we get an OG Tomb Raider game warning, Xbox hardware won't vanish and the Switch 2 gets delayed (maybe). Also Ste is not making a massively multiplayer game. Did we mention it would be cool if you could help Resonance FM by donating to them? Well the link to their 2024 Fundraiser is below!...

Hello dearest listeners! This week in the podcast edition of the world's longest running (English language) video game radio show we have dangerous tree cutting, gaming based anxiety nightmares, children tell jokes, more Nintendo speculation and crazy price tag defence. Plus is it overtime or extra time and does anyone really care? *Warning* The podcast exclusive intro contains swears. The actual...

This week in your single video game podcast that releases a single episode per week (most of the time) that covers industry news, new releases (often) and has smart thoughts and analysis (we try), we have Cliff Bleszinski waiting on a call from Microsoft, Ste cancels Netflix in anger, Hideaki Itsuno doesn't like fast travel and the Switch successor brags an 8" (screen). We also have a Pocket Gamer...

You should always take your socks gaming with you. That may or may not be the important lesson to be learned in this week's episode, or I misheard something. Possibly that. On this week's RADIO SHOW that is also a podcast (but a RADIO SHOW first and foremost) we also find out what is "confusing AF" about Bluey's Xmas episodes, Palworld copies from Pokemon shocker, 8% of all devs are working on Swi...

Hello! It's show time once again! And this show is hangry. Or Simon is, at least. This week we have a Past Guest Postmortem, Steam breaks records again, Sony drive a car, Altec Lansing guess things, Valve clamp down on AI, there's something about Suicide Squad and Ste gets a new controller. One Life Left: Consistently consistent since 2006! Meanwhile there's another Maraoke! It's on Monday 22nd Ja...

Happy New Year! We are back from a very video-game Xmas and we might all be a bit rusty after the holidays! In this episode we have Steam releasing a lot of games (though the signal to noise ratio isn't great), a 13 year old kills Tetris, Nintendo might have a new console out this year and new life is breathed into Cyberpunk 2077. Simon and Ste also share their experiences of the Meta Quest 3 with...

On the last show before Christmas Ste and Simon gave to me A real, live, talking SSG! That's right, dear listeners! You've been good this year, mostly, so you get an SSG in the form of Andrew Smith from Spilt Milk Studios, here to talk all about Trash Goblin, amongst other things! There's also Game Awards "excitement", vegan gangsters, a zombie MMO that might not be an MMO (and definitely isn't no...

This week stuff happened. What stuff? Well you could just listen to the episode to find out OR maybe you're reading this at some point in the future when there are thousands of OLL episodes and you're searching through the notes, trying to find something specific... Hello, listeners from the far flung future! How is your commercially viable rocket-pack? Are you living on Mars? In this episode you...

Hello and welcome to another episode of One Life Left! In this episode Ste confuses a Royal Mail employee LIVE ON AIR, Simon has a new laptop that doesn't seem as bad as strangers on the internet make it out to be, Ubisoft assassinates Assassin's Creed pop-up ads, Gamemaker goes free (for some), Fortnite to have a Big Bang, Activision watch what you watch and we ponder past PR pop-ups. Meanwhile,...

Welcome back, dear listeners, to another episode of One Life Left! This week I, Phil the Undercaretaker, try not to get jealous as we hear Part I of (kind of new feature, I suppose) Tales from Japan! (I need to work on that title... it was a last minute decision...) Meanwhile we discover just who the heck Jonathan Smith is and why he's the Responsible Adult. There's also Simon in a plane toilet, S...

This week we might mention that we're going to Japan. Did we mention that we're going to Japan? Well, we're going to Japan. In fact, by the time you read this we'll be up in the air or there already! Excitement!!! Anyway, besides all that, in this episode we have Simon's squeaky chair, Ste's dislike of the Super Mario Bros. Movie, an accidental bank account shutdown, a game is too hot for Microsof...

We suffered some technical issues not of our making yet again this week, folks, so apologies in advance for any drop in quality you may experience. You'll be hearing a few apologies during the show, too, though I (Phil the Undercaretaker) will hold my hand up and say that I don't think it's all that bad. It certainly could've been worse... and, admittedly, if I'd edited out much more then all the...
