Oh No! Video Games!

Don't give someone easy access to morphine. That's a dumb idea.

Oh: next week we're going to be doing special episodes where we play a Dark Heresy campaign. I haven't figured out the logistics of putting up hours of content in one week! It seems like it'll probably end up being expensive! We record it on Monday and hopefully that'll be fun!

Theme song’s by The Glowing StarsAlex “Singyamatokun” Davis does our art! This week both of the break songs are off the Chip In: Japan album, the first's by Bit Rat and it's called "4959", the other's by ExileFaker and that one's called "Prelude E13D35".

If you're a chiptune artist, send a message, or even a sample of your work to hello@ohnovideogames.com and maybe we'd be interested in playing it!

There's very little that British people can call our own, but we really do hold the monopoly on getting bladdered and cutting people with very minimal provocation.

It seems silly that Waluigi doesn't have his own game yet. What are Nintendo even doing? Do you think they know?

Thanks to The Glowing Stars for our theme tune and outro! Alex “Singyamatokun” Davis for our consistently amazing show art and to both Big Giant Circles feat. Jeff Ball for "Thunderstruck" and A_Rival for "mAEt b0y". Both tracks were brought to you by OCRemix, the former song is on the recently released 25YEARLEGEND album.

It's weird how "RPG" is so much of a catch-all term, right? 

I guess that's what this episode is about!

Thanks to The Glowing Stars for our theme tune! Alex “Singyamatokun” Davis for our great-as-heck show art and to Sixto Sounds for the ocremix of a track from Super DodgeBall. Happy birthday to that dude, too. That'd be way more timely had this episode come out on schedule. Sorry!

Are you concerned with our choice of topics as long as we're still attempting to remain entertaining? Are we entertaining... at all??

Woah.

Thanks for surviving through our odd update schedule! Everything should probably all be in order now that we've gained a level of structure back in our lives.

The thing about getting a few months off of university is it leaves you a little directionless. I suppose, rather than commiting to podcasting once a week, we were instead more concerned with finally etting some sunlight.

Anyway, this week we talk about a heckton about Jim Carrey's Product Placement, The Binding of Isaac's versimilitude, the correct use of "Mad World", bureaucratic destruction and we answer, like, two questions!

Thanks to The Glowing StarsAlex "Singyamatokun" Davis and Danny Baranowsky!

Serious warning: Because of some silly audio issues this episode is horrible to listen to on headphones. Use your PC speakers and I think you'll be fine for the most part.

Let that not remove from the awesome fact that... Oh man! We recorded this at Eurogamer Expo! And really entertaining people were also on the show with us!

Big thanks to JonTim and especially Kev from Sarcastic GamerDebbie from The Average GamerPhillipe from a website that doesn't exist, Chris from "I sort of write stuff", Mike and Chris from Ready Game Fire and Jenn from Death by Robots.

Episode 22: J-Dubz

Is... is this how I upload a podcast? Am I doing it right?

I edited the show in lieu of Mat this week, so apologies for any audio weirdness that might go on, especially during the intro and break music. It's totally worth it though.

This week we talk about Tom's indie game developer bowel problems, Endermens, more Mortal Kombat (Moretal Kombat?) and start a new section where we have a guest on to discuss Plants VS Zombies tactics. This week's special guest: Alison!

We might not do that again.

Massive thanks to everyone's favourite band The Glowing Stars and to Alex for the always wonderful artwork. You should also donate to Mat's Extra Life Dark Souls marathon here.

It was Tom's Birthday! That's a great thing to happen to him. For some reason he decided to hang out with us rather than get some extreme partying done, but I can understand that now he's at the wrinkly old age of 22.

This week we talk about Belligerent Game Designers, how the Sims Social is probably more Anti-Social and discuss some "DooSex".

Massive thanks to everyone's favourite band The Glowing Stars and a super shout out to our buddy Danny who did all the break music this week. You should also check out the song which takes us out this week. So Good.

Hello everyone! We had some special guests this week in the form of We Are Two Squares' Alex and Mike. They're nice.

We talked about some video games and laughed a lot and Alex's microphone makes her sound like a cross between the Grand Galactic Inquisitor and Alice Glass. Sorry?

That's pretty much all. The Glowing Stars are cool as is the soundtrack to Castle Crashers and also Credulity Kills is pretty great too.

Perhaps we went overly long. That's a plus, right? I guess we just had a lot to talk about? Is too much episode a good thing? As the person listening to it you'd probably appreciate the free entertainment, but for the person making it; you kinda worry that people will think "oh man, I gotta sit through it for that long?"

What I'm saying is we, in our own ways, all lack self confidence.

Hey dudes. If you like iTunes we're totally on there and you can subscribe using This Link if you want. We like reviews and ratings too. For us those are like flowers after you've forgotten our anniversary. We don't really care; it's just nice to be thought about once in a while.

This week, for some reason, we talk about Hitman: Blood Money and from 11:15- to 24:47 we talk about Portal 2. Skip that part immediately if you haven't played it. We talk about the ending right away.

Plus there's some "things we wrote this week" discussion that's a bit about PSN security and a bit about achievements. Then some stuff about gay characters in games (specifically: The IGN bullshit that went up recently).

Hello dearies, we're finally on iTunes which is Totally Nice. You can subscribe using This Link if you want. Oh, and if you leave us a review I can offer you the chance to make out with one of us.

It's the least we can do, really.

In this episode we talk about Portal 2 but really don't spoil anything. We thought about going into some detail but maybe that can wait for a few weeks (Josh still hasn't finished it). We also talk about an idea we have for Pornography Graphs, some Super Meat Boy, the backlash to our Sexism In Games article, go a little more in-depth about publisher-enthusiast relations and surmise the problems with being a SteamPunk. Perhaps unwisely: We also weigh in on the Dickwolves issue. I can understand if you wanna skip that part (it's not very funny).

Plus we play some Shag Marry Kill with Game Developers. A segment we're Never Going To Do Again.
