| Finally got around to listening to the whole thing today. Brilliant, funny stuff. Especially after Jim Sterling's podcast, the main joke of which was a TMNT dick joke, this was a breath of fresh, cold, Christmassy air. Bet Andy was chuffed that Wii Sports got in! ![Laughing](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_lol.gif) Also, Matthew Castle: Ultimate Festive Troll. |

| I think I was too distraught by the rabbids bashing that it completely slipped my mind. Also odd considering the fact Wii Sports Club is surely exactly the same but better, right? |

| I'd have put up both that and Resort over it, but I guess Resort's less of a party game, with the added precision of M+. |

| I'm not a fan. Tried Dual Strike briefly - didn't get on with it. Too cerebral for a hobby that's meant to be relaxation. I got two of the three Nintendo-format a cappella tunes. I actually really liked answer 2's game's music, but didn't remember that particular tune - got the main character, though. Still nothing from Drunka. ![Aww!](/users/4111/31/13/97/smiles/1508216586.gif) |

Never played any of the sequels, just the GBA one. And that was on Wii-U last year. Completely disregarded it for over ten years, but thought I'd give it a try - 40 hours on it in a couple of months. It's very addictive, but not something I've longed to return to. It's one of those games you can binge on, rather than pick up and play. I spent three hours just on one battle - 90 days or something ridiculous. Would Worms fall in to this genre? |

| The last episode was one of the best yet. I thought the group (Matthew in particular) made a lot of astute comments about particular videogames and themes, and I was nodding my head at some of the things said about how some indie games having this barrier to enjoyment to them.
I actually agreed about Matthew's judgement on Timesplitters. It's good, but having come from GoldenEye 007/Perfect Dark, it wasn't quite what I was looking for. Too fast paced for some of the more fun shenanigans that you could do in those two games, and the weapons were a step back.
That being said, it did play a good shooter, just a very different one. |

| Finished listening today. Funniest moment of the podcast: Alan's completely bizarre introduction to the Space Ark segment. I thought that GoldenEye would have received more opposition, as I hear it's aged as well as a cheap white.
I'm sure the Worms games would count, Grant. |

I bet that's aged better than Goldeneye has. i think either would of aged by the year 3000 and isn't meant to show the best of gaming in genre and Goldeneye did more for it then Nightfire. |

| I'm afraid I still see Goldeneye as the "Good old days". The multiplayer is obviously aged, but the freedom you get in single player mode is something that Call Of Duty can only aspire to.

| They mentioned on Twitter earlier today that they're recording imminently. I quite enjoyed the last one, despite it almost being ruined by Andyman being very wrong about Bishi Bashi Special and Wii Sports. |
