Ep 54Anthem 2.0! | Remedy's Secret Project Speculation | PS5 Price Concerns

E

This week on the Finger Guns Podcast the gang are back together with Rossko, Sean, Greg and Paul taking a stab at the weeks news featuring a deep dive into what on earth Anthem 2.0 might be and if any significant changes to the game will be enough to bring back Paul, who if you're a long term listener knows he's not particularly a fan of. The rest of them team attempt to try and see the positives, who knows if it works? We also have some fun speculating just what on earth Remedy's secret project is. We know it's not a new IP, so which of their back catalogue are they bringing back to life? Max Payne? Alan Wake? Quantum Break? We have no idea, but it's so much fun trying to work it out. We also get into the PlayStation 5 manufacturing cost and whether or not that may spell trouble for the upcoming consoles eventual launch price. Are we right to be a little concerned? Sean, being The Knowledge, tries to reassure the rest of us that everything will be ok. Maybe. Rossko also talks briefly about his experience with the Sonic The Hedgehog movie (you can read his full review here - https://bit.ly/2HuF2FJ) along with his first impressions of the full Dreams release. We also talk hands-on with, Code Vein, L.A. Noire, 7th Sector and the team talk jumping back into The Division 2 after this weeks news of a massive content drop. Finally there's a 'Celebrities in Video Games' Trivia Challenge which ends about exactly the way you've now come to expect from The Finger Guns Podcast. There's *so* much Kiefer Sutherland drama. Way more than you've ever seen anywhere else. Buckle up. | Theme Music - Don't Feel (So Low) - Mid-Air Machine.http://www.fingerguns.net / Team: @FNGRGNS / Rossko - @RosskoKeniston / Paul - @ThePaulCollett / Greg - @GregatonBomb / Sean - @Omac_Brother / Facebook: FingerGunsUK / Twitch - twitch.tv/fingergunsdotnet /If you enjoyed this podcast or any of our content, please consider supporting our Patreon > http://www.patreon.com/fingerguns.

Ep 53Sony's Scary PS5 Patent | EA and Acti Remasters | Resident Evil Quiz

E

Where did everybody go? It's just Greg and Sean this week as they partake in what can only be described as a "Joey heavy episode of Friends" version of the Finger Guns Podcast. The dynamic duo give impressions on Code Vein, Zombie Army 4, 7th Sector, 1 Finger Death Punch 2 and yet more Skyrim before talking about some of the hot topics of the week - EA and Activision are doing *more* remasters, Sony have made a mildly concerning patent and Phil Spencer says things that get taken out of context. Again.All of this is topped off by a new instalment of the indie corner, a quiz dedicated entirely to Resident Evil in Greg's honour and a round up of all the gaming releases coming out this week.

Ep 52Switch outsells Xbox One | The Perfect Superman Game | The Wonderful 101 Returns?

E

In this weeks jam packed Finger Guns Podcast Sean, Paul and Rossko dissect the weeks news including all the major tidbits from Nintendo's Investors Conference Call including why there won't be a Switch Pro this year and the Switch outselling Xbox One. We also discuss The Outer Worlds upcoming release for the handheld hybrid which includes a physical box but no cartridge? Interesting. We also get deep into the GDC developers survey and find some surprising indifference towards the Xbox Series X with the PS5 gaining the majority console focus. We also jump headfirst into the rumour mill with Platinum Games' potential The Wonderful 101 Switch and PS4 remakes. You want more? Well we share a roundtable discussion regarding what could make the perfect Superman game, with Paul leading the charge the return of the Man of Steel onto our consoles. But how? And why can't any developer seem to get him correct? Sean also gets us all very patriotic with a *tough* British developer Trivia Challenge and his Indie Corner also makes a return, pointing you in the direction of Skathe, a fascinating untitled game from 3rd Shift Studio (http://www.twitter.com/3rdshiftstudio) and Red Thread Games *amazing* looking detective noir story Draugen. We also talk hands-on with Sisters Royale, Journey to the Savage Planet (single player and co-op), the Disintegration Beta, Not Tonight on Switch, Monster Energy Supercross 3 and Sean jumps back into Skyrim. There's also singalongs, arguments and a surprisingly good Stallone impression. So, a typical episode of The Finger Guns Podcast, then?(Quick heads up, there's a little bit of audio cackling at the beginning of the Superman segment. We've done our best to remove the majority though some may remain due to not wanting to cut out discussion related to the topic).

Ep 51Cyberpunk Not Working on OG X1 and PS4? | New Silent Hill(s) | Nintendo in Court

E

This week on the Finger Guns Podcast Rossko, Sean and Paul cover the weeks biggest news including a deep dive into the real reason behind the Cyberpunk 2077 delay. Can your OG Xbox One and PS4 handle the game? It would seem CD Projekt Red have had to take the time to make sure it runs at all on the original systems. Sean and Paul go back and forth on whether or not it should have just launched on next-gen and skipped this generation entirely. Elsewhere we jump into a little bit of breaking news including Konami possibly working on two new Silent Hill titles and what they could offer. Do people really trust Konami products anymore? We also look into Nintendo's recent victorious lawsuit in regards to their eShop Pre-Order policy. Should it really be illegal to cancel pre-orders if you need to? This episode also signals the return of Sean's Indie Corner, as he takes a brief look at four upcoming indie games you should be keeping an eye on, including the brilliant looking Wavey the Rocket. We also have a Trivia Challenge that focuses on the game releases of 2012 and we talk hands on with Destiny 2 and Halo on xCloud, Paul continues his original Shenmue playthrough, Sean shares his latest Platinum and Rossko jumps into his backlog to finally start The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and The Order 1886. We also talk The Witcher Netflix series and the first episode of Star Trek Picard on Amazon Prime!

E

The Finger Guns Podcast returns with a shiny new episode featuring Adam Boyne from Beta Jester, who stops by to talk about their terrific looking Forgotten Sea, along with how one can squeeze 1300 hours out of Rocket League and his once a year venture back into No Man's Sky. It's a fun chat regarding indie development, you're going to want to check it out.

E

The first Finger Guns Podcast of 2020 is now live for your earholes and well, we've decided to start the year off with some fanboy baiting, because why not cause a little chaos in this messed up society eh. First up Sean lays it all on the line by throwing down a battle royale of the ages - just who has the better studios in the run up to the next generation - Sony or Microsoft? Friendships are put on this line before you can even say 'it doesn't matter, man. Games are fun'. We dissect all the games we know about from each studio to see which may come out on top in the run up to this years massive clash of the titans, the Series X and PS5. Ooft, it's exciting. Elsewhere we talk the leaked specifications of the PS5 to see if can stack up to Microsoft's tower that isn't a tower and if developers will flock to either power or popularity. Elsewhere Respawn legend Vince Zampella has joined DICE to oversee a brand new studio and we're very exciting to see what they're going to come up with. We also talk the games we've been playing over the Christmas/New Year period (essentially jumping into backlogs, as is tradition) and Sean refreshes our memory for upcoming releases in a brand new Trivia Challenge. It's a new season of quizzes so everyone's overall scores are back down to zero. Who's going to come out on top? You'll have to listen to find out.

E

In our final episode of 2019, Rossko, Greg and Sean get into the reveals from The Game Awards, along with our initial thoughts on the Xbox Series X reveal. Is it a console? Is it a PC? We try and work out the middle ground between the two and if it's the right direction for Xbox to be moving in. We also get rather deep into the many trailers revealed and we jump back into our gaming history by sharing some Christmas Day Video Game stories for the ages, and how important the industry has been to making some rather brilliant festive memories. Along with that Rossko talks impressions of the Fortnite Star Wars Event, Greg has completed another AAA megaton and Sean declares his love for TellTale Games and Dead End Job (again). Enjoy!

Ep 45Phil Spencer Refutes Xbox VR | Stadia is *still* trash? | Christmas Gift Guide | Marvel Trivia Challenge

E

This week on The Finger Guns Podcast Greg, Sean and Rossko talk everything VR and Xbox, including Phil Spencer's dismissal of VR coming to Scarlett along with Shuhei Yoshida's response. We then talk if we even want Microsoft to embrace the technology at all and rather just stick to their guns and make a straight up games console with no bells and whistles. Elsewhere we discuss the rather awful Stadia launch, along with a deep dive into their rather unfortunate forced refunds, just two weeks after launch. Yikes. Elsewhere we talk you through the Games with Gold and PS Plus games for December (just play Titanfall 2, ok?) and also get into their Christmas spirit by sharing our recommendations on what to pick up as a gift for the gaming enthusiast in your life. We also get back to basics by describing the difference between each system iteration and whether or not they're worth your time. Yes, most of you already know this but hey, we're just trying to help you know? We're nice like that. Sean also tests our Marvel games knowledge with another fiendish trivia challenge. Finally, we talk hands-on impressions with Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, Shenmue III, Football Manager 2020, Death Stranding and something called Dead-End Job? Never heard of it.Theme Music - Don't Feel (So Low) - Mid-Air Machine.http://www.fingerguns.net / Team: @FNGRGNS / Rossko - @RosskoKeniston / Paul - @ThePaulCollett / Greg - @GregatonBomb / Sean - @Omac_Brother / Facebook: FingerGunsUK / Twitch - twitch.tv/fingergunsdotnet /If you enjoyed this podcast or any of our content, please consider supporting our Patreon > http://www.patreon.com/fingerguns.

Ep 44Terminator: Resistance | Shenmue 3 | VG Music Quiz Returns | Resi 3 Remake?

E

Ross gets happier. Sean breaks up and down. Greg doesn't like bonus points. Paul says Anthem without rage in his voice. In between the battle with our personal demons, we manage to fill this weeks episode of the Finger Guns podcast with talk on games like Terminator: Resistance, Shenmue 3, Death Stranding and... Cal Cake-Tin? We chat the possibility of a remake of Resident Evil 3, the details which make Silent Hills an even more painful cancellation, a collective shrug for Half-Life Alyx, our nods for The Game Awards and some breaking news tidbits. All of this is topped off with a quiz all about video game music. We do spoil you.Theme Music - Don't Feel (So Low) - Mid-Air Machine.http://www.fingerguns.net / Team: @FNGRGNS / Rossko - @RosskoKeniston / Paul - @ThePaulCollett / Greg - @GregatonBomb / Sean - @Omac_Brother / Facebook: FingerGunsUK / Twitch - twitch.tv/fingergunsdotnet /If you enjoyed this podcast or any of our content, please consider supporting our Patreon > http://www.patreon.com/fingerguns.

Ep 43Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Impressions | Stadia is half-baked trash | The Toxicity of Pokemon Fans

E

This week on The Finger Guns Podcast Rossko and Sean go deep on their thoughts on Respawn's Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, discussing everything from the story to the really rather brilliant BD-1. We also discuss where you can find that rather tantalising double lightsaber. Greg then joins us for the news as we talk just where the hell the promotion for Google's upcoming great big hope, Google Stadia. Also, why is it launching with all the features that makes it interesting to gamers? Like, literally all of them?! As the interest in Stadia has really quite shut down, is there a future for a system that's already rather poor out of the gate? We all talk the redesigned Sonic the Hedgehog for his upcoming movie and weirdly, we all think it looks pretty good. Finally Gamefreak has had a rough week as they've been accused of lying to their players. Naturally, the internet exploded and Sean goes on a heady rant to those attacking the developers. You won't want to miss it. You also get your very own quiz as there aren't enough players on the podcast to take it on. Plus there are hands-on impressions of Battle Breakers, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle and the Fortnite Chapter 2 Battle Pass endgame.http://www.fingerguns.net / Team: @FNGRGNS / Rossko - @RosskoKeniston / Paul - @ThePaulCollett / Greg - @GregatonBomb / Sean - @Omac_Brother / Tim - @tim_utley / Facebook: FingerGunsUK / Twitch - twitch.tv/fingergunsdotnet / If you enjoyed this podcast or any of our content, please consider supporting our Patreon > http://www.patreon.com/fingerguns.

Ep 42X019 Reaction Special

E

Rossko, Greg and Sean got together directly after Microsoft's X019 conference in London to discuss every single announcement, delving into the nitty gritty of each reveal and what it could mean for the future of the House of Green. Greg even gets excited about something! Take a listen for our take on all the upcoming games announced, along with massive Project xCloud updates and yet more reasons to get yourself a Game Pass subscription. The future is bright for Xbox, but is there enough to jump on right now rather than holding off for this time next year? We discuss.

Ep 41Death Stranding Impressions | Hands-On With Capcom Home Arcade | Big PlayStation Changes

E

This week on The Finger Guns Podcast, Greg is in a rather fine mood as Death Stranding landed on his doorstep. He talks us through the first two hours of gameplay and whether or not he still has any idea what's going on. He also takes questions from Rossko and Sean who haven't played it and want to know everything. Yeah, even Rossko. We also grill Greg on his trip to London town to play Capcom's upcoming Home Arcade system, and whether or not it's worth its rather steep asking price. We talk the very exciting new role for Shuhei Yoshida at PlayStation. Sean is very excited and goes in-depth on what we could see from the indie output on PS5. Finally there's a Wild West Video Games themed Trivia Challenge and Mad Dog McCree gets mentioned. It's a wonderful moment.

Ep 40In Celebration of the PS4 | Games To Look Forward to Before 2020 | Best Horror Games

E

This week on the Finger Guns Podcast the whole gang is back together to discuss the weeks happenings in the gaming world. The team reminisce on PS4 memories as the system becomes the second biggest selling console of all time, what we love about the console and why we all decided to grab one at launch instead of Microsoft's 2013 offering along with why, away from the exclusives, we think the system has just done so damn well this generation. We also choose our most anticipated games to be released before the end of the year and given that we recorded this episode on Halloween, we tackle our favourite horror games from history and try and come up with the ultimate scary game (spoiler; we don't). We also dig into just what on earth the remake masters Bluepoint Games are tweeting about and give a nod of approval to 3 Minutes to Midnight, a fantastic point-and-click adventure game that cleared its Kickstarter funding goal whilst we were recording. Finally we talk hands-on with Afterparty, The Outer Worlds, Call of Duty Modern Warfare, Ghost Recon Breakpoint, Children of Morta, Megaquarium and more. Oh, and there's yet more controversy in a Star Wars themed Trivia Challenge.Theme Music - Don't Feel (So Low) - Mid-Air Machine.http://www.fingerguns.net / Team: @FNGRGNS / Rossko - @RosskoKeniston / Paul - @ThePaulCollett / Greg - @GregatonBomb / Sean - @Omac_Brother / Tim - @tim_utley / Facebook: FingerGunsUK / Twitch - twitch.tv/fingergunsdotnet / If you enjoyed this podcast or any of our content, please consider supporting our Patreon > http://www.patreon.com/fingerguns.

Ep 39EGX Post-Show | Boundary Impressions | Fallout First | The Outer Worlds is Awesome

E

After the madness of our EGX week we're back to normal Podcast duties with Greg, Sean and Rossko in the hotseats to discuss EGX 2019 with some hard-hitting questions from Rossko (kind of). Elsewhere Greg went to play Boundary at the Ukie Studios to let us know why he's so very excited for this one to come out and why the rest of us should be taking this one very seriously. Something we shouldn't be taking seriously is Bethesda's latest very impressive way to shoot Fallout 76 into the sun once and for all with their Fallout First subscription announcement. Goodness do we have some thoughts. Also, Dead End Job has a release date! How very exciting. Oh, and Horizon Zero Dawn coming to VR? A hastily back-pedalled tweet suggests so...Elsewhere Rossko and Greg wax lyrical about The Outer Worlds, with plenty of positive impressions of the games early hours. Oh, it's so good. Plus we talk hands on with Lonely Mountains Downhill, No More Heroes: Travis Strikes Again on PS4, Children of Morta, Megaquarium, Return of the Obra Dinn on Switch, Fortnite Chapter 2 impressions (SO MANY BOTS), and *very* brief impressions of Call of Duty's latest iteration Modern Warfare. Finally, the Trivia Challenge is back!

Ep 32Blizzard's Very Bad Week | Fortnite's In The Hole | PS5 Controller | EGX Hype!

E

This week on the 30th episode of The Finger Guns Podcast the entire gang is back together to talk all the latest in video games (shocker). We delve into the horrible no good very bad week Blizzard have had and wonder if there's any way back for them after their actions were so widely condemned. Have they done enough to earn back the trust and respect of their base? We discuss. Elsewhere Fortnite has turned into a supermassive black hole and Rossko and Sean discuss the reaction and how utterly brilliant Epic's marketing team are. Is there more than meets the eye to this ridiculously cool PR stunt? Will Sean's kids ever be ok again? We also catch up with the latest confirmed PS5 controller details and whilst exciting, we're a little concerned about yet another controller gimmick possibly being passed on by developers. Finally Greg and Sean are off to EGX this week and they're a bit bloomin' excited. Plus we have hands-on impressions of Concrete Genie, John Wick Hex, Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games 2020 and Destiny 2: Shadowkeep.Theme Music - Don't Feel (So Low) - Mid-Air Machine.http://www.fingerguns.net / Team: @FNGRGNS / Rossko - @RosskoKeniston / Paul - @ThePaulCollett / Greg - @GregatonBomb / Sean - @Omac_Brother / Tim - @tim_utley / Facebook: FingerGunsUK / Twitch - twitch.tv/fingergunsdotnet / If you enjoyed this podcast or any of our content, please consider supporting our Patreon > http://www.patreon.com/fingerguns.

Ep 31Bully 2 Isn't Happening | House of the Dead Returns | PS Now Price Drop

E

This week on the Finger Guns Podcast, Greg, Paul and Rossko dissect the weeks news such as Rockstar more or less confirming that Bully 2 - despite the fan outcry that it's a certainty - is almost definitely not happening, and what the means for future single player Rockstar experiences and even if we were ever really excited about it at all. We also long for the days of the light gun with the announcement that House of the Dead is making a triumphant return. How is going to work on consoles without light guns? We debate how they can be utilised on each console. We also deep dive into Sony's recent PlayStation Now price drop, and what it means for the future of the platform. Does it justify its price and can it compete with Xbox Game Pass? We discuss. Also Resident Evil is coming to Monster Hunter World: Iceborne and Greg is very excited. Finally we talk hands-on with Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair, Untitled Goose Game, Black Desert and Control, along with some late-to-the-party impressions of Far Cry 5 from Paul. Paul also gets annoyed at a flight of stairs. It's quite something.

Ep 30Misleading Final Fantasy VII boxart | The Last of Us Part II - No Factions | No Red Dead 2 DLC

E

This week on The Finger Guns Podcast marks the triumphant return of Mr. Sean Davies alongside Rossko and Greg as they dissect the possible misleading nature of the Final Fantasy VII Remake boxart. This turns into quite the debate from both sides regarding whether or not the episodic nature of the release is actually going to be worth the unexpectedly heavy financial hit its complete form will take. Elsewhere we talk about whether or not any of us give a damn that multiplayer mode Factions has been split off into a standalone game from The Last of Us Part II and Greg shares his thoughts on Rockstar not adding single player DLC to Red Dead Redemption 2. With Sean returning it also means a shiny new Trivia Challenge which in no way whatsoever is completely and utterly bias towards a certain member of the pod team. Not at all. Nuh uh. No siree. Finally we share our impressions of the Ghost Recon Breakpoint Beta, The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, The Surge 2, Mario Kart Tour and Sean's late-to-the-party thoughts on Detroit Become Human. We also talk the Harry Potter stage play. Just because.

Ep 29Hands-On With Apple Arcade | Digital Game Pricing | Terminator Resistance

E

This week on a short and sweet episode of The Finger Guns Podcast Greg, Paul and Rossko talk all about Apple Arcade. Paul gives us a deep dive into a variety of games available, if it's worth the money and whether or not it will appeal to those who aren't really into mobile games. Is the selection varied enough for Paul to keep his subscription after the free trial? I guess we'll find out in a few weeks. Elsewhere we get down and dirty in the murky world of digital game pricing, and try to work out just why games on online storefronts are most always so much more expensive than their physical counterparts. Just how cheap can Paul get Far Cry 5? That is the question. Not only that, but we talk Terminator Resistance after its reveal this week. Greg gets angry about Terminator Genisys again and whilst we came away impressed from the trailer, will it live up to that expectation?We also talk hands on with FIFA 20, Deadly Premonition Origins, the utterly fantastic Sayanora Wild Hearts, Mutazione, Wreckfest, Monster Hunter World, Bus Simulator (again), FIFA 20, Apple Arcade darling Assemble With Care and more, including pre-embargo non-impressions of The Surge 2 and Yooka-Laylee and The Impossible Lair. We don't talk about Link's Awakening. Rossko forgot to mention he's been playing it all week and is completely in love. We'll catch up with that one next week.

E

This week on the Podcast, Greg and Rossko discuss their rather exciting trip to Nintendo HQ in Windsor along with their thoughts on Zen Studios' Star Wars Pinball. Who nerded out the most? Well, let's be honest, they both did. Elsewhere Greg discusses his thoughts on a new multiplayer Resident Evil game in Project Resistance, along with Paul's concerns (shocker). We also discuss the upcoming Last of Us Part II media event, what we're hoping will be announced and just when on earth the game will be coming out. Sean's date is rather realistic, Paul's hopefully isn't. We also talk what's been revealed from this week's Tokyo Game Show, including more talk on Death Stranding and the Final Fantasy VII Remake, along with catching up with what's being offered in Apple Arcade, is it enough to make us want to jump ship to iOS? Finally there's a massive shock in the Trivia Challenge, changing everything you thought you knew about our weekly quiz. Maybe. We'll see I guess.There's also hands on impressions of Bus Simulator (yup), the Call of Duty Modern Warfare Multiplayer Beta, WRC 8, Fracter, Plants vs Zombies Battle for Neighborville, Star Wars Pinball and a little indie known as Borderlands 3.

Ep 26TellTale Reborn | Sony Is Done This Gen | Kinda Funny and Publishers

E

This week Rossko and Sean welcome our old friend Tim Utley back onto The Finger Guns Podcast to talk the weeks news including the return of TellTale Games and what it really means, debating whether or not it's really going to be the same without the developers who made their games as fantastic as they were. Is there a future for a TellTale that isn't really TellTale? We also dive into just where the bloomin' eck Sony is and if they're wiping their hands of this generation in preparation for what's to come. Are they going to ditch attracting indies to the platform for PS5 much like they have on PS4? Sean argues that they're probably not going to and passionately declares it to be a reason to perhaps not back Sony into the next generation. Elsewhere as Kinda Funny Games take on another paid promotion series we discuss if there's a line that's skewering between an Influencers responsibility to its audience and the almighty dollar. Oh, and we talk our most anticipated games for the month of September along with yet more controversy in the Trivia Challenge. Finally we share our impressions of Remedy's Control (one of us loves it, one of us doesn't), Knights and Bikes, Wreckfest and Bulletstorm on Switch.Theme Music - Don't Feel (So Low) - Mid-Air Machine.http://www.fingerguns.net / Team: @FNGRGNS / Rossko - @RosskoKeniston / Paul - @ThePaulCollett / Greg - @GregatonBomb / Sean - @Omac_Brother / Tim - @tim_utley / Facebook: FingerGunsUK / Twitch - twitch.tv/fingergunsdotnet / If you enjoyed this podcast or any of our content, please consider supporting our Patreon > http://www.patreon.com/fingerguns.

E

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BATMAN! This week we have a full house with Sean, Paul, Greg and Rossko celebrating ten years of Rocksteady's masterpiece, Batman Arkham Asylum. We discuss what the game meant to us and how it's still impacting gaming today. We also go deep on the latest Ion Fury controversy, this time backtracking on their apology regarding offensive content. Have they caved to Steam reviews in pursuit of their creative vision? We also have a long ol' chat about the D23 Expo and its many wonders, particularly the Marvel and Star Wars announcements, get excited by The Rise of Skywalker footage and debate a certain tidbit of news regarding Spider-Man's place in the MCU. You may have heard about it? Either way, we have differing and surprising takes on this news. We also talk hands-on impressions of Erica, Superhot on Switch, Hamsterdam, Pacific Wings and um, Gears POP. Finally, the Finger Guns Trivia Challenge throws up possibly the most melodramatic conclusion in its short history.Theme Music - Don't Feel (So Low) - Mid-Air Machine.http://www.fingerguns.net / Team: @FNGRGNS / Rossko - @RosskoKeniston / Paul - @ThePaulCollett / Greg - @GregatonBomb / Sean - @Omac_Brother / Facebook: FingerGunsUK / Twitch - twitch.tv/fingergunsdotnet / If you enjoyed this podcast or any of our content, please consider supporting our Patreon > http://www.patreon.com/fingerguns.

E

Sean, Greg and Rossko get together directly after the Gamescom Opening Night Live conference to discuss everything - and we mean literally everything - that was revealed in the two hour show presented by our favourite host, Geoff Keighley. There's also a rather brilliant discussion between Greg and Sean in regards to what is so intriguing about Death Stranding. We all weigh in on our favourite moments of the event and the games we're most looking too along with a very quick look at the Stadia Connect event and Nintendo's Indie World Direct earlier in the day. Oh, we also get a quick chat into the massive breaking news during the Gamescom ONL; Sony bought Insomniac!There's plenty to get excited about, and plenty to get angry about it would seem, in Rossko's case...yikes.

Ep 23THQ Nordic Have Gone Crazy | Gamescom | Need For Speed Heat | Kenobi?!

E

This week Sean, Paul and Rossko dissect just what on earth THQ Nordic have up their sleeve for the next couple of years, what they're not yet telling us and which games we're going to see first out of the gate from their ridiculous IP spending spree. We also jump into what we're most likely to see at Gamescom Opening Night Live from a huge amount of publishers providing brand new announcements along with new content. We also delve into why we're not really all that excited about Need for Speed Heat after that rather mediocre trailer and Sean returns once again with his fiendish Trivia Challenge, but this time it's Sean that wants to kill us, rather than the other way around. I can't think why. We also discuss our hands-on impressions of No Man's Sky VR, Madden NFL 20, Damsel, Sagebrush, Exception and Rossko jumps back into some PS4 Sony exclusives to stress test his shiny new TV. He still doesn't like God of War and it's grounds to have him removed, tbh.Finally we discuss the rather delicious rumour that Ewan McGregor has got himself signed up for a Disney+ based Obi-Wan Kenobi series. Let the speculation commence!Also, what did the first person think when they walked past a gravestone? How very confusing.Theme Music - Don't Feel (So Low) - Mid-Air Machine.http://www.fingerguns.net / Team: @FNGRGNS / Rossko - @RosskoKeniston / Paul - @ThePaulCollett / Greg - @GregatonBomb / Sean - @Omac_Brother / Facebook: FingerGunsUK / Twitch - twitch.tv/fingergunsdotnet / If you enjoyed this podcast or any of our content, please consider supporting our Patreon > http://www.patreon.com/fingerguns.

Sean, Greg, Paul and Rossko go through each generation one by one discussing some fond memories of those classic consoles, from the Amiga 500 all the way to the Dreamcast, stopping only to take part in a Retro Trivia Challenge hosted by Mr. Sean Davies. There's plenty of laughs to be had with some ridiculous stories of gaming in our youth, from nearly-complete Halo saved files being deleted to huddling around a TV playing GoldenEye with our schoolmates. There's also a story about a man with a van turning up at kids houses in Somerset and offering them games to rent for a weekend. It gets weird. Also, did you know Greg was a Resident Evil fan? You sure will by the time this episode is over.Intro Music: Victorious Accomplishment - Mathgrant > https://bit.ly/2MdGErWOutro Music: Don't Feel (So Low) - Mid-Air Machinehttp://www.fingerguns.net / Team: @FNGRGNS / Rossko - @RosskoKeniston / Paul - @ThePaulCollett / Greg - @GregatonBomb / Sean - @Omac_Brother / Facebook: FingerGunsUK / Twitch - twitch.tv/fingergunsdotnet / If you enjoyed this podcast or any of our content, please consider supporting our Patreon > http://www.patreon.com/fingerguns.

Sean returns with a Video Games 'First Time' Quiz (and gets totally schooled...), Greg gets passionate about Capcom's continuous mistreatment of the Street Fighter fanbase and we get excited for Netflix's The Irishman along with spoiler-free impressions of Amazon Prime's The Boys. As always we discuss what we've been playing, which this week includes a game we definitely can't talk about because it's not real. Not at all.

This week on the latest episode of The Finger Guns Podcast, Rossko, Sean, Greg and Paul all weigh in on the GTA Online Diamond Casino controversy with a deep dive into exactly what it's all about, who it may be attempting to target and whether or not Rockstar are being slightly reckless with their microtransactions, balancing out the argument with Paul and Rossko discussing how it's actually quite fun to play if you avoid the casino floor altogether. We also try and decipher whether or not EA are holding a Gamescom press conference and have yet another horrendously difficult (for us, anyway) trivia challenge where we may or may not have completely forgotten some classic video game sound effects.We also discuss our impressions of Wolfenstein spin-off Youngblood, the frankly terrifying multiplayer adventure The Blackout Club, Horace, Wargroove on PS4 and much more, including video game comfort food (classic games we go back to time and time again, not actual food..Greg). Also, is Dark Ghost really a game?
