One Life Left

Pickaxe

One Life Left is a radio show about videogames, only not really. We love games but we take them precisely as seriously as they deserve. 99% nonsense and 1% heart-stopping brilliance, they are all supposed to be fun and so are we. We have news, reviews and special guests, sure, but we also play game-related music and we have stupid game-related features like inappropriately dark-hearted poetry, gambling tips and chart news from a market stall. We're on the wonderful Resonance 104.4FM at 7PM every Monday and on the internet all the time, ever, right here.

swear finger - #621
This week we have Ste encouraging bad behaviour, Simon having a wee next to someone famous, WD40 seemingly working and then not, crunch time (again), the GTA 6 soundtrack, God of War "not exciting", Nighthawks "not filth" and a grown adult man lets his child wrack up a huge debt on his company credit card. Yep. Oh, it's video game related, though. You can't chuck a stone in here without hitting an OLL Vanity Project at the moment and we launch one of them LIVE on this very episode!

rare kind of hero - #620
Welcome to another episode of the podcast edition of One Life Left, the world's longest running radio show about video games (in the English language)! This week Mark Cerny personally congratulates Simon and Ste might be on a list but never mind that - we have an SSG! We're joined by Luke Caspar Pearson, Associate Professor and Co-Director of Cinematic and Videogame Architecture at the Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL. He's here to talk about his new book "Videogame Architecture: Building Virtual Spaces" - a book so big that it won't even fit on an Ikea Kallax shelf! (Other shelving systems are available). Other topics this week include the recent Nintendo Direct, Tetris vs Trump, Resident Evil movie comedy cuts and a Skyrim X Ikea mashup. Another Ikea mention?! Do we want sponsorship from them?? Six years! Six years I've been writing these! You'd think I'd be better at it by now! A letter is like a creative part of your very soul and we want you to feed them to us!! That's right, feed your souls to us at team@onelifeleft.com or join our Discord and leave some tasty letters for us to consume on there. Link below!

rOLLing on... - #619
The new season of One Life Left starts here! Don't know who we are?? Well, we're only the world's longest running video game radio show in the English language, that's what! This is the podcast edition of said radio show. Hello! Don't let the fact that we have 618 previous episodes (not including specials) behind us scare you. Jump aboard! The main things to remember are it's the hope that kills you, it's always never F-Zero, fewer not less and 7/10 is the only review score. Your hosts are Ste Curran and Simon Byron. Simon's mic is usually better than in this episode and it will be sorted. I am the Undercaretaker, a shadowy figure who mostly writes nonsense that sometimes touches on things that actually happened in the show. With that in mind, a link to the OLL Discord is HERE. Please don't try to scam us. This week our intrepid hosts talk about their Summer arcade experiences, Deal!, eclipses, GTA6 (of course!), Xbox capping the cloud, how Sonic gets away with using guns (and what else he could possibly now get up to...), Sony/Digital/"own" vs "licence" continuing shenanigans and the Lego PlayStation! We also talk about gamescom 2026 (yes it is all lower case) and, of course, Maraoke! Speaking of Maraoke: Reading this before Friday 11th September 2026? Got any plans for Friday 11th September 2026? No? Well you do now! Come to Maraoke at Loading Bar, Stoke Newington, LONDON at 7pm and JOIN US! Find out more details HERE! Do you want a refund despite the fact that you're getting this for free? Or want to write us a letter in case there's a chance of winning a prize, or just out of the goodness of your heart?!? Well then send something to us at team@onelifeleft.com or join our Discord and leave us a letter and/or chat to us there! Link above AND below!

OLL's Out... - #618
...For Summer! It's End of Term but rather than watch films in our own clothes all day while the teachers neck vodkas in the staff room we decided we'd smack one more episode out of the park for YOU! So this week we briefly gloss over the football, despite EA being right again, and discuss yet more physical media axing shenanigans (that GameStop doesn't care about), CoD lobby 'banter', a Mii return, The Charles Cecil Patented Sleep Technique and what exactly is a Tōkon, Gillen?? There's also Summer Holiday plans, definitely not a review of Pragmata but you do get a brief review of Develop:Brighton, using Wiki to read the plots of things we can't be bothered to watch/play/read/continue with (if it's not already been called this then I'm starting here: WikiSkipping!), Andy Burnham's plans for gaming and, AND, a load of your blooming lovely letters!! Thank you, all! So, yes, it's now the Summer Holidays and you'll have to amuse yourselves until we return in September but please don't be strangers! You can still write letters/send e-postcards to us at team@onelifeleft.com or keep in touch with us and other OLL listeners on our Discord! Link below!

Still Coming Home... - #617
... until it isn't - which may be the case on Wednesday evening, after this podcast has been released onto an unsuspecting world, but at the time of me writing this IT is very much in a state of STILL maybe COMING HOME. Obviously I'm talking about football. Football. It's coming home... On that note, welcome once again to the podcast edition of the world's longest running video game radio show, in the English language, One Life Left! This week we ponder Develop week party options, last minute meeting requests, football (obviously), EU not stopping Sony, Xbox getting battered in Brazil, a Steam refunds tantrum, LEGO loving Donkey Kong, Isabelle Rodriquez (who are you??) and much RESPEC!! Can't help but notice we got ZERO letters this week - was it too hot to write, maybe, dearest listeners?? That's absolutely no excuse - I manage to write consistently poorly in all weathers! Was the threat of us deleting all your games not enough?? Good grief... Well you have One Week Left (of this season) to get your letters to us before we all jet off on our Summer hols!! Send them to us at team@onelifeleft.com or join our Discord, have a natter, play some Vanity Projects and drop us a letter there! Link below!

Just Bobbing - #616
It would've been too obvious to name this week's episode after something Marvel Universe related. So I didn't. And even that might need some explanation, anyway, so HERE! 616, innit?! Aaaaaanyway, hello, welcome to the podcast edition of the longest running English language video game radio show: One Life Left! We don't always discuss the logistics of watching a football match whilst sitting in a swimming pool but in this episode WE DO! We also discuss Sony binning discs (plus general physical Vs digital issues), no more consoles at a loss says PS boss, Steam Machine getting mixed vibes (from one person), MS gets cheeky and Kojima gets nostalgic (and paranoid)! There's a Maraoke THIS FRIDAY - Friday 10th July, that is - in that London! Get your tickets HERE! WRITE US SOME LETTERS OR WE WILL DELETE ALL YOUR GAMES!!! Don't think we won't! Well, we'll delete the digital ones, at least... Send your letters to us at team@onelifeleft.com or join our Discord and drop us a letter there! Link below!

This week we have heat coping mechanisms, Rockstar ditching discs, Meccha Chameleon being a big thing, the Steam Machine pricing buzz, Xbox having a dig at PlayStation (fight!!), Olivia Rodrigo on Fortnite, vanity projects updates and Mike Rose secrets (? and !)

Hello! We've got a Super Special Guest this week! It's James Parker from Ground Shatter and he's here to talk about new game 2 Fights in 2 Tight Spaces! It's not just shadow dropped but it's shadow dropped into early access and he's here to tell us all about it! Meanwhile Simon gets dragged to the Houses of Parliament for beers with Kier, Ste doesn't go to the cricket and we all talk about Summer Game Fest 2026, another ROG Ally, David Yarnton spinning a yarn about Gizmondo, Wolverine being a bit stabby and Tifa? Tifa! I dunno... We managed to get two letters this week - can we get three for next week from you? Come on, we know you can do it, dear listeners!!

Regrettable Burgers - #612
Welcome to another episode of One Life Left, dear listeners! This week Simon recognised his children for the first time in ages while Ste killed the games industry YET AGAIN! Yet he's still allowed to walk around as a free man! The police do nothing these days, etc etc... We also discuss GTA6 still being 'on course', the Steamdeck price hike, Soccer Kid returning in time for the World Cup and Geralt returning in time for... erm... in time to remind people that Witcher 3 is still a game you can purchase, probably. Meanwhile Ste gives us a run down of his recent trip to Nordic Gamer and we all battle with Simon's mic issues - sorry, listeners! Come on, write us some more letters! Please!

Nice Warm Chat - #611
The boys are back from Japan and are here to tell you all about it in what is possibly multi-part episodic content! This week they cover buying stuff they didn't even want and/or need, including Virtual Boys and gachas as well as discussing the Nex Playground finally coming to the UK, Virtuos dreaming of other ports, Mixtape not being delisted (but, after only 3 years, LEGO 2K Drive is), Asha Sharma breaking her Caps Lock button and the Sega Super/Mega Game is finally not coming! Simon also gives us an update on his new game, 52!, and how he's planning on going to war against his own players! Is this directly my fault? Possibly... If YOU want to play 52! then join our Discord - link below! The next episode will be in 2 weeks time - enough time for either Stockport (Ste's team) or Bolton (my team) to have beaten the other at Wembley and be in the Championship - Drama! Excitement! Overpaid footballers even at this level!! It also gives you plenty of time, and not many excuses, to write us a letter!!

This week is mainly brought to you by excitement from our intrepid duo over their impending trip to Japan! The boys still make time to talk about video games, though, including (but not limited to) Xbox exclusives being exclusively exclusive, May the Fourth be with the new Steam controller and what happened to the Sega Mega Game? We also talk about video game pricing (courtesy of a listener's letter!!), there's an update on vanity projects and yet more Japan trip excite! Friday 15th May is still the date for our next Maraoke. Will you be there? Come on, you know it makes sense! Get your tickets HERE! What gaming paraphernalia would you take on a long flight? Have you ever been in a wine cave??

HEALTH WARNING: Do not use these show notes as any kind of official and/or legal record. Or even life guidance. Heck, no. With that in mind, this week we see that Simon can't be improved while Ste went to Wembley but, as always with football, it's the hope that kills you. The intrepid duo also, yet again, carefully say "egg hunt" as is the tradition at this time of year. Video game wise we wax lyrical about the GTA6 leak/Rockstar share price hike, the 2026 BAFTA Game Awards, the PlayStation sales soar, Lana Del Ray x Bond game and the state of arcades in Skegness! There has been a Maraoke and there will be another Maraoke! It will be on Friday 15th May and will possibly involve free drinks! Oh boy!! You can get your tickets HERE!

Quick Sniff - #608
Well, good lord... I mean... wow... I wrote two things down for what Ste got up to this week and, dear listener, they're both TRUE: Ste becomes a hacker AND Ste behaves questionably in a gym! The two are indeed one and you will find out all about it in this episode! Our dynamic duo also recount past 'bad boy' school exploits whilst wondering if kids do any work these days and pondering over who to bully next! (We don't bully people, it's bad. This will all make sense when you listen to the episode. Again: bullying is bad. Do not bully.) Meanwhile there is actual gaming stuff to mull over including Epic axing employees, Sony hiking prices, Nintendo dabbling with their prices, Starfox making a Summer 2026 appearance (maybe), it's still always never F-Zero and this is no longer an Xbox! We're off for two weeks after this episode so this is the last chance I'll have to pitch the next Maraoke to YOU! It's on Friday 10th April at Loading Bar, Stoke Newington, you really should go to it, alone or with friends/colleagues/acquaintances/family members/neighbours, everybody needs good neighbours, and you can get your tickets HERE! Having some time off over Easter? Planning a Bank Holiday gaming marathon, maybe?

It's a Dialogue - #607
This week there's no SSG but Charlesbot has had his meeting with HR and realised it's in his best interests to return to work and read about Nintendo planning a new Switch 2 already, as well as boosting the current one, Minecraft coming to Chessington, Cyberpunk getting a trading card game and Nvidia angering everyone with DLSS 5. Remember when Nvidia was typed out like nVidia? No? Just me? Ok then. Meanwhile we're all publishers, we're all on panels and we're all digital. Apparently. According to my notes, anyway. It'll be here sooner than you think! "What would that be?" I hear you cry?!? The next Maraoke event, that's what! It's on Friday 10th April at Loading Bar, Stoke Newington and you can get your tickets HERE! Have you been on a developer's yacht?

This week Ste talks to a woman at a bus stop and Simon goes out with Bingo Dave. We discover that we arrived very early, Parko has 'people' and Keza MacDonald is The Guardian, apparently! We also tackle the news without Charlesbot who proves that AI is evolving even quicker than previously thought by pulling a Monday sickie! We battle on regardless, however, and still manage to cover a Pokemon spin-off selling well, MS releasing next Xbox details, LEGO pondering PSX and the possibility of Starfield being regarded as a good game at some point in the future. Will that be in our lifetimes, though? Who knows. Roll up, roll up! Get your tickets for the next Maraoke event here! It's on Friday 10th April at Loading Bar, Stoke Newington.

Well well..... RHELL! This week we're joined by Alice from Slugglove talking all things Rhell and the joys of solo dev working as well as joining in on the rest of the show! Along with our trusty newsbot we cover Highguard going bye bye, the PS PC strategy fail, MS patenting a player lifeline system, a Rogue City mix up and Steam launch pressures amongst many other things. We also get threats from listeners, discover that Simon looked great last Thursday and how Ste almost missed a thing because of Gandalf's hair! See?! Now the episode title makes sense and it's not just me using the first idea I scrambled together due to lack of sleep or anything, honest! QUICK!!

The Method - #603
This week we learn all about The Method! No, not Konstantin Stanislavski's acting style, championed by the likes of Marlon Brando, Robert De Niro and probably Danny Dyer, but Daan Last's entirely new way of making video games - The Method! As well as that, our Super Special Guest tells us about his new game Bibidi Bibidi and you can check out his websites HERE and HERE! I've also had a special request to place a link to Museum of Mechanics: Lockpicking in the notes as well, possibly to prove that I do actually listen to the shows and don't just make up the notes at random, so the link for that is HERE! As well as that we discover that all is well with Ste's teeth, Xbox have a staff shake up which may or may not be the end times, Slay the Spire 2 is incoming, Guy Mowbray does a lot of pretend commentary and game player numbers are falling!!! There's also another Maraoke event incoming - Friday 13th March, Loading Bar, Stoke Newington. Bag your tickets HERE! Suzanna - are you OK? What did we do? Can we help??

He's here to talk about working with Flaming Fowl Studios on new game Konfronto, his game dev process, using community feedback and also his abs! Charlesbot covers Sony's recent State of Play, Jaffe using an 'F' bomb, the Virtual Boy does some more stuff and some bloke called Ste Curran has yet another game out! Meanwhile we also discover what Ste got for his birthday (Battery Daddy!) and why Simon has never done anything new ever again. Ben the Caretaker put everyone to shame by being the only listener to write in to us this episode. Shocking! Make sure this doesn't happen again by writing a letter to us at team@onelifeleft.com or join our Discord, check out our Vanity Projects and then leave a letter for us on there! Link below!
