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.

Ooh, looks like the listeners are scared. All because we’re not afraid to speak our minds, put our heads above the parapet and tell it LIKE IT IS. And do you know what, we don’t care. No other podcast on the PLANET is brave enough to say that Zelda BOTW was a good game, but it’s no skin off our nose. Mario Galaxy was alright too.

James returns and as usual he's got a few notes on last week’s show that he’d like to discuss with the others.

It’s Halloween and the boys are keen to use scary noises to spook the listeners. They’ve also spent the week with a snake in their boot and announcing that someone has poisoned the water hole. As you’d expect much of this show is dedicated to Red Dead Redemption 2 but that doesn’t stop David and Sean questioning some of Mat’s statements from the week before.

David’s off this week, so here it is; a little preview of how TCGS will sound in 2019 when David takes a year off to look after this second child. Oh wait. What’s that? Sean’s also not on the show because he’s suddenly unwell an hour before recording? Ah. Well that just leaves James and Mat to carry the torch and do something for the listeners. I mean sure, James would have liked nothing more than for Mat to cancel and not release a show this week, but unless we’re all dead from a freak schmelting accident, that’s not happening. We’ve got a commitment to the listeners and nothing will ever break that. EVER. Games discussed: Golf Story, Pool Panic, Fist of the North Star, Forza Horizon 4, Black Ops 4, Mark of the Ninja.

It’s a big one this week. Not only is it the final episode before our live show at EGX this coming Saturday, but a lot has happened since the last recording. Spider-Man’s mysterious backpacks? Solved. That Spider-Man proposal? Dealt with. The fact that Mat and James thought they were more important than David and Sean and could do whatever they liked and upload an episode of Interface on the TCGS feed and therefore disrespecting everyone associated with the show not to mention every single listener? Very much dealt with. So strap in and settle down to another episode of The Computer Game Show. Sean is also on the show.

Sean returns but James ruins any chance we had of having a full cast by dropping out just hours before recording. We should be mad really but to be fair to him he’s put the effort in by pre-recording the news and mailing it in. He won’t editorialise it though, no way.

It's coming home, It's coming home, It's coming, Football's coming home (x4). Everyone seems to know the score, they've seen it all before, they just know, they're so sure, that England's gonna throw it away gonna blow it away but I know they can play ‘cause I remember three Lions on a shirt. Jules Rimet still gleaming. Thirty years of hurt. Never stopped me dreaming. So many jokes, so many sneers but all those oh-so-nears wear you down through the years but I still see that tackle by Moore and when Lineker scored, bobby belting the ball and Nobby dancing. Three Lions on a shirt. Jules Rimet still gleaming. Thirty years of hurt. Never stopped me dreaming.   EGX 2018 Watch The Computer Game Show LIVE at EGX 2018 on Saturday 22nd September.

With David being ill and Mat and James both nursing hangovers we were a little concerned that this week’s show might be a washout. Turns out that all we needed was more Life is Strange to talk about and an excuse to walk down memory lane. This ended up being a very fun one to record, so you’d better bloody like it.   KICKSTARTER Buy a TCGS T-shirt or polo shirt through our Kickstarter campaign which ends on 7th July. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/thecomputergameshow/t-shirts-and-polo-shirts-for-the-discerning-podcas   EGX 2018 LIVE SHOW Watch The Computer Game Show LIVE at EGX on Saturday 22nd September 2018.

It’s back to business this week as David has taken notes of the show’s output since he’s been away and within moments the show gets back to normal.

David and Jon are away AGAIN, so this week it’s a Mat and James special. It’s a serene affair, as the two friends calmly discuss topics such as last week’s Games Media Brit List awards and our EGX live show announcement. And there's other stuff to discuss; from pre-E3 news to questions about contraception. It’s all happening this week.   Watch TCGS LIVE at EGX on Saturday 22nd September 2018.

David's unwell and Jon's away, so Mat and James draft in podcast rivals Leon Cox and Darren Gargette from Cane and Rinse for this week's episode. There's a ton of news to get through, with everything from Nintendo's online offering to E3 leaks. Discussion then turns to God of War, Donkey Kong: Tropical Freeze, Moss, Laser League and more. Oh and with David being away, Mat's back to edit this week's show. Funny how David said "Oh you'll never edit this show again!" a few weeks ago, and now look. What crap. Anyway, it's a great edit this week with absolutely no laughter removed. Mostly becsause there was very little to remove in the first place.  We're nominated for a Mixcloud Online Radio Award!

James returns and although he was happy with the show last week, he’s furious with not getting credit for putting the news together. Mat continues to dream about being his favourite Ghostbuster, Gordon. Jon tries to convince everyone that he isn’t a competitive person and David gets put in his place by someone who isn’t on the show. All this and more on another breathtaking episode of The Computer Game Show.   Listen Apple Podcasts Pocket Casts Overcast acast Stitcher SPOnG   Watch Twitch YouTube   Contact thecomputergameshow@gmail.com Twitter Instagram Facebook Discord   Follow @davidturners @jcafarley @matmurray @jondenton   Artwork by BigShimmeryWall Music by Nick Parton

James has to miss out on the show this week as he had work commitments leaving David, Mat and Jon to wonder what his work life must be like. Mat is getting a little too excited for Season 4 of Fortnite while David and Jon make solid progress with God of War as well as coming up with an idea for a new YouTube channel.

This week the lads have had to decide who the most important people on the show are and some members aren’t happy with the results. They also talk about performing the show live at Rezzed 2018 and the nightmare of a week that followed. There’s the usual chat about the games they’ve played and the answers they’ve got for listener’s questions but less face it, all you lot care about is the drama.   Listen Apple Podcasts Pocket Casts Overcast acast Stitcher SPOnG   Watch Twitch YouTube   Contact thecomputergameshow@gmail.com Twitter Instagram Facebook Discord   Follow @davidturners @jcafarley @matmurray @jondenton   Artwork by BigShimmeryWall Music by Nick Parton

The Computer Game Show Live.   Unfortunately due to unforeseen technical difficulties during recording, the sound on this is awful. But we know some of you will want to hear this, so we're putting this out anyway.   This show was recorded live at EGX Rezzed 2018, on Sunday 15th April 2018.   Listen Apple Podcasts Pocket Casts Overcast acast Stitcher SPOnG   Watch Twitch YouTube   Contact thecomputergameshow@gmail.com Twitter Instagram Facebook Discord   Follow @davidturners @jcafarley @matmurray @jondenton   Artwork by BigShimmeryWall Music by Nick Parton

Tensions rise between all of the hosts as David has a thing or two to say about Mat’s editing. The show moves on to talk about why Steam Boxes failed, whether big budget games have to avoid political issues in order to not alienate an audience and despite A Way Out being disappointing, why they would still recommend you play it. But I’ll be honest, everyone is on tenterhooks throughout.   Listen Apple Podcasts Pocket Casts Overcast acast Stitcher SPOnG   Watch Twitch YouTube   Contact thecomputergameshow@gmail.com Twitter Instagram Facebook Discord   Follow @davidturners @jcafarley @matmurray @jondenton   Artwork by BigShimmeryWall Music by Nick Parton

This week's show is all about the games: disappointing games, co-op games, Grainger Games, political games and games awards. David's positive about a game with some negative press, Jon's still angry about a game with mixed press, Mat's largely positive about a game with disappointing press, and James is interested, mostly.   Don't forget: we're performing live at Rezzed 2018 on Sunday 15th April.

This week Mat lacked the persistence to play Sea of Thieves so David summons the help of James and Jon to talk about it. David could have spoken about it on his own but he really couldn’t be bothered to put all that effort in himself, so instead let the others do it while he sat back and took the credit. Some may think David is a coward for doing this. Actually, most people would. It really shows him up as the sort of person he is. A let down of a man.   Listen Apple Podcasts Pocket Casts Overcast acast Stitcher SPOnG   Watch Twitch YouTube   Contact thecomputergameshow@gmail.com Twitter Instagram Facebook Discord   Follow @davidturners @jcafarley @matmurray @jondenton   Artwork by BigShimmeryWall Music by Nick Parton

Guess why Mat is suddenly into Fortnite. Go on, have a guess. I don’t even need to hear your answer to know that you’re correct. Well done. Celebrate by listening to another entertaining episode of the Computer Game Show in which Jon has to chose between being a parent or killing a boss, David thinks his staff need to take control of their departments and James says that he’s never been negative about a game.   Listen Apple Podcasts Pocket Casts Overcast acast Stitcher SPOnG   Watch Twitch YouTube   Contact thecomputergameshow@gmail.com Twitter Instagram Facebook Discord   Follow @davidturners @jcafarley @matmurray @jondenton   Artwork by BigShimmeryWall Music by Nick Parton

James and David get into another argument but this time they almost end up agreeing. Jon misses out on becoming a pro-gaming champion while Mat finally manages to complete something.

To top it all off the boys have another big announcement to make.   Listen Apple Podcasts Pocket Casts Overcast acast Stitcher SPOnG   Watch Twitch YouTube   Contact thecomputergameshow@gmail.com Twitter Instagram Facebook Discord   Follow @davidturners @jcafarley @matmurray @jondenton Artwork by BigShimmeryWall Music by Nick Parton

Jon is off this week and Mat finds an old game put together by Capone Adam for David and James to play. Mat is many things, a meme generator, an optimist, a man with a beard but as the boys are about to find out, he’s no gameshow host. David is still unsure about Yakuza 0 and James attempts to speed run Shadow of the Colossus.   Listen Apple Podcasts Pocket Casts Overcast acast Stitcher SPOnG   Watch Twitch YouTube   Contact thecomputergameshow@gmail.com Twitter Instagram Facebook Discord   Follow @davidturners @jcafarley @matmurray @jondenton Artwork by BigShimmeryWall Music by Nick Parton
