August 07, 2014 11:14 - 35.9 MB

It's a last minute, two man, low key episode this week, so join us for a morning edition of the Gamecentral Podcast! No Man's Sky is confirmed for PC, the people at Twitch are being dicks and the Gamecube remake of the original Resident Evil is coming to current gen platforms so we've got plenty to chew on in this week's news segment. Our "What Have We Been Playing" section is shorter this week (as there's one less of us) but we've still been hammering away at a few titles, including Rogue ...

July 10, 2014 12:15 - 61.4 MB

Guy has apparently fallen off the face of the Earth this week, making all of our 6-month anniversary plans come grinding to a halt, but luckily the ever faithful Don Goss is on hand to take up the coveted third seat. We talk about the news in gaming this week including Cliffy B's newest project, the upcoming Sharknado "video game" and the day-one DLC for Alien: Isolation; before focusing on the more positive aspects of gaming that often get lost in all the talk of gaming addiction and its i...

July 03, 2014 11:56 - 52.7 MB

Gamecentral Podcast: Episode 24 - Childhood Mammaries

June 26, 2014 01:42

It's podcast time! It's been another slow week for games with no massive news, and no new releases but we still keep you filled in with what's been going on with news on Arkham Knight's release date, N64 games on the Wii U and various sales on at the moment. As no big new games have been out this week we decide to get all nostalgic and recount our first gaming memories, and we also appeal to members of the community for their experiences.

May 30, 2014 12:56

In this episode of Light, Banter, Action! we're reviewing the new X-Men film from director Brian Singer.

Gamecentral Podcast: Episode 15 - Cap 'Em And Shank 'Em!

April 24, 2014 00:25

February 20, 2014 05:52

We forgo the retro game this week as we've got more than enough to talk about! We talk about Irrational Games shutting down, Doom making a return and indulge ourselves with a bit of Nintendo talk.

February 06, 2014 12:48

In amongst the chaos, you can almost hear voices discussing Nintendo's new fitness strategy, EVE Online's biggest ever space battle and Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes' 2 hour run time, before Rob challenges you to guess which game he's reading the back of the box of. Things take a downward turn when we have our first ever (slightly drunk) guest on the podcast (Paul Lynn) and we spend the rest of the podcast, in theory, discussing Crash Bandicoot and talking about what we've played this wee...
