Gran Turismo is odd and I will always love him
April 26, 2022 18:54 - 50 minutes - 35.5 MBThis week I've only gone and over indulged. It's just me (louis) so I of course take this moment to waffle hard about the complex, perculiar and endearing world of Gran Turismo. Not only as a game but also as a longs tanding brand, at the forefront of Playstations marketing strategy. Included are a bunch of old 3hr intros and outros from the early days, a drum and bass cover of The Flight Of The Bumblebee and the deluded ramblings of a lapsed racing game fan. You cannot get enough of th...

April 09, 2022 11:12 - 39 minutes - 27.6 MBThis week, I could write the intro to match the core word based structure of the game we're talking about. But honestly, it's too much of a hassle. We did it a bit for the intro, so we've filled the quota and frankly, it's not like it really adds anything anyway. Like, i bet 70% of podcasts did this very thing when Baba is You came out. so why re-hash it again in the pod description. nono. this is much better. Lochie got a ps5 btw.

Golf With Your Friends
January 17, 2022 20:54 - 39 minutes - 71.3 MBLet me first apologies for the intro. We decided to write them in advance just to fill them out a bit a make it more descriptive about the coming episode and we immediately started writing nonsense. Another note is that, in the ep, we talk about how this game should be called 'Golf with friends' not 'Golf with YOUR friends'. Found out after a quick google that it actually used to be called 'with friends' but mobile giant Zynga trademarked '.. with friends.' which is wild and crap, eh? Anywa...
