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 LISTEN Apple Podcasts Google Podcasts Spotify Pocket Casts Overcast acast Stitcher WATCH Twitch YouTube CONTACT thecomputergameshow.com podcast@thecomputergameshow.com Twitter Instagram Facebook Discord FOLLOW @CaptainToss @matmurray @jcafarley @davidturners DONATE Fancy giving us a donation to help support the show?

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!

141: News Pipe
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. Also: James has an announcement that ruins the fun for everyone, Mat is psyched for 2020, and despite what Sean says in this episode, people will probably still say he’s a big Anthem fan. Games discussed: Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Destiny 2, New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe, Deadly Premonition, Metro Exodus, Resident Evil 2, Bloodborne, Crackdown 3, Destiny 2, Tetris 99, Kingdom Hearts 3, Anthem.
