James is back! But David’s away as he’s taking a much deserved break.
Fear not, because there’s plenty to cover including the Xbox and PS5 reviews, tons of feedback, Mass Effect trilogy remasters, Sega selling off its arcade business, ridiculous outfits and turning classic Christmas tales into video games.
It’s worth noting that we recorded this episode on Monday, a day before the Xbox launch, so no new console impressions this week. Come back next week for those hot takes.

225: Old Loves, Old Loss
James is away on business, leaving David, Sean and Mat to run rampant.
Naturally it gets silly almost immediately, but we still find time to discuss Halo: The Master Chief Collection getting some nice Xbox Series X upgrades, custom PS5 flaps going on sale, and rumours about Xbox streaming sticks and 1 vs 100 possibly returning.
There’s a little bit of what we’ve been playing, then we fall into a deep conversation about social media habits, hate-fuelled rages, and atrophied bodies, like you do.
Games discussed: Hades, Spider-Man, Genshin Impact, Super Mario Bros., Ghost of Tsushima: Legends.

What a massive, massive week of news. So much has happened.
Sony finally announced the price, the launch date and some launch games for the PS5, yet somehow we got more information from Geoff Keighley.
Microsoft bought Bethesda and Zenimax for $7.5bn! Doom! Elder Scrolls! Fallout! The lot! It’s crazy!
And Nintendo had another partner showcase mini direct thing.
Elsewhere, we go through the results of our predictions for the Sony show, but that’s all small-fry compared to the main event; MAT AND JAMES’ BET.
Strap in.
Games discussed: Super Mario 3D All-Stars, Paradise Killer, Frostpunk.

210: Hotdog and Shooter
Following our decision to not do a Talks Over for Ubisoft Forward after more allegations came out over the weekend, we have a frank conversation about what it means to cover games when there’s allegations and controversy.
After that we get round to discussing what was shown at Ubisoft Forward, as well as Microsoft’s views on next-gen upgrades, Sony’s massive investment in Epic Games, cancelled Valve projects over the years, and a mini Sega arcade cabinet?!
All that plus so much more on this lively episode of The Computer Game Show.
Games discussed: Spider-Man, Over The Alps, Superliminal, LocoRoco 2, Trackmania, Golf on Mars.

The Last of Us Part 2 Spoilercast
David, James and Mat finally get to sit down and have a big spoiler-filled chat about The Last of Us Part 2.
It goes without saying, but If you haven’t played The Last of Us Part 2 yet, or if you don’t want to know anything about it, turn this spoilercast off IMMEDIATELY. (Then come back once you’ve finished the game.)
For the rest of you, enjoy.

203: Bug Eyed Man
There’s plenty of news with everything from Microsoft not acquiring a company, Gears of War on the PS3 and source code leaking everywhere.
But the big news story is that we’ve rebranded to TCGS.
From The Computer Game Show.
But that doesn’t affect the podcast. The podcast stays the same.
Apart from the big change you’ll hear on this show.
But apart from that, the podcast remains the same.
Same name. Same logo. The same.
But we as a group/collective/company, we’re now TCGS.
See. It makes sense.
Games discussed: Descenders, Resident Evil 3, Daytona USA, Cloudpunk, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Disaster Report 4: Summer Memories, Horizon Zero Dawn, Iron Man VR Demo, Golf With Your Friends, Just Dance 2020.

157: Here Come The Eggs
Sean's properly back on the internet now, so it's time to see what he thought of E3. But more importantly, what he thought of James and Mat's version of events, and how Mat and James thought last week's show went.
We also announce the results from our E3 predictions, and naturally arguments arise over what constitutes a point or not.

146: Easy Mode
At the time of recording James had a flight in less than ten hours and still hadn't started packing, so we squeezed in what we could into two hours.
And after three podcasts and a couple of streams the previous week, What You Been Playing is a bit thin on the ground, which, as you'll hear in feedback, is probably a good thing for Mat.
Watch TCGS Live at Rezzed this coming Saturday 6th April at 4pm in the Fringe Theatre. Tickets and more information at egx.net/rezzed
Games Discussed: Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Yoshi’s Crafted World, Wargroove, The Red Strings Club, Gems of War, Earth Defence Force: Iron Rain, Bloodborne

PlayStation State of Play - TCGS Talks Over
Sean, Mat and James talked over PlayStation's first 'State of Play' presentation live on Twitch, and here it is in audio form.
We'd obviously recommend watching the video of our live reactions on our Twitch or YouTube channels, but if you're not able to do that, hopefully this audio version will suffice.
Note: Because we used the audio from the stream for this show, the audio quality won't be at quite the same high standard as the weekly pod. We're working on making this much better for the next one. Thanks!
