    In Game of the Week we get excited about Caravan SandWitch, The Plucky Squire and more Astro Bot chat, because well, it's fantastic.

  • Farewell North is a one-of-a-kind experience, so who better to talk to the creator of the game Kyle Banks than that one-of-a-kind Miles Thompson! Miles talks to Kyle all about the game including the raw emotion, the ending, the music and spoilers aplenty.


    Don't miss it. And make sure you play Farewell North, it's absolutely glorious.

  • This week on The Finger Guns Podcast Rossko, Miles, Kat and Josh get into the weeks news including Bioshock 4, Crash 5 being apparently cancelled and Xbox revealing some strange new tiers...


    In Game of the Week Josh has been checking out the 'EDM Guitar Hero' Spin Rhythm XD and the really rather lovely Darkest Dungeon II. Miles has finally checking out Elden Ring's Shadow of the Erdtree DLC whilst Kat has been just far too busy to play games this week so Rossko talks about his experience with the PS5 exclusive Concord beta.


    In recommendations Josh talks about the bloody terrifying Nicholas Cage starring Longlegs, Kat recommends Werewolves, a badass board game based on the classic deduction game. Oh, and Miles just casually got an OLED Steam Deck for his birthday because God has his favourites, evidently.

  • Welcome back to the pod! It's a quiet news week so Rossko, Josh, Kat and Miles get together for a quick ol' pod to get you caught up on the stories that we felt best acquired your attention. Or we picked ones we knew we'd have something to say about so we could fill the pod a bit...


    In Game of the Week Josh has been playing photography game Unarangi Generation, Kat is still chugging away at Red Dead Redemption 2, Miles has been checking out the theme park sim Parkitect whilst Rossko has been enjoying the wonders of monster trucks in Monster Jam Showdown and the PS5 release of The First Descendant.


    In recommendations Miles talks about the Best 50 Boss Fights book which is also reviewed now on Fingerguns.net, Josh has checked the brilliant Punch Drunk Love (after watching The Godfather...I don't know, I'm finding it hard to explain), whilst Kat talks all about the upcoming 24-hour charity stream which we're planning on July 20th.

  • This week on The Finger Guns Podcast we're back to our nonsense talking the latest game news and quizzes and what we're playing and all the stuff that you love. Rossko, Miles, Kat and Josh talk the difficulty of Shadow of the Erdtree, Xbox Game Pass coming to Amazon Fire Sticks and Konami staff wanting Kojima back for good.


    In Game of the Week Josh (and Miles) have been checking out the Valorant PS5 Beta (and well, it's very good...), Miles has been playing the terrible The Sinking City but keeps going back to it even though it's terrible (who is writing this anyway?) while Kat has dropped 27 hours into Red Dead Redemption 2 after Miles made her play it. Nice Miles. Nice. Oh, and Rossko has fallen back in love with the gorgeous Tetris Effect.


    Josh is recommending not going to The Trafford Centre as it's a 's***hole', apparently. Ugh. Miles leans into recommending House of Leaves, which is a book. Weirdo. Oh and Kat recommends an app called Family Wall, which is an app for couples to organise a sharedlist. We're here for the people folks.


    Also Rossko is the head of a new kind of quiz this week which hopefully gets you thinking / screaming at your podcast playing devices. May the odds be ever in your favour.

    Our love to his family and closest friends.

  • After last weeks showcase shenanigans we're back on traditional podcast duty talking the weeks biggest news including Nintendo returning with a shiny new Direct showcase (though no mention of their new console is confirmed). What on earth have they got up their sleeve to show us? We're a little dumbfounded so it's gonna be a hugely interesting show.


    Elsewhere Embracer have closed Alone in the Dark remake studio Pieces Interactive after 'disappointing sales'. Are games really selling poorly or are expectations too high?


    Finally we talk Sea of Thieves and how it's ruling the PlayStation seas in the US and Europe.


    In Game of the Week Kat has been checking out the PlayStation edition of Sea of Thieves and it may have turned into a slight obsession. Josh has been finally playing the absolute banger that is Persona 3 Reload, Miles has smashed out the very 'Miles' game V Rising. whilst Rossko has been checking out some Steam Next Fest demos such as The Alters, Parcel Corps and well, Building Relationships. Yikes.


    And in recommendations Kat talks The Last Campfire, Josh recommends a documentary about real estate developer Robert Durst, whilst Miles recommends sea-faring horror Still Wakes the Deep.

  • We're back! Huge apologies for missing an episode last week - life very much got in the way for all of us - but now Rossko, Miles, Kat and Josh are back and we're talking up all the latest news and catching up on what we missed.


    First up we all get our teeth into the State of Play from last week, sharing what we thought our favourite reveals were along with stuff we're surprisingly excited by (apart from Rossko, who goes on quite the existential tangent). We all get a little bit hyped for Astro Bot and wonder what on earth Concord really has to offer anyone. Oh, and the other stuff in between.


    We also get into the reveal of Call of Duty Black Ops 6, the Game Pass confirmation and the controversy already surrounding the game regarding content. There's a fair bit to get into so we delve in as far as we can without knowing an awful lot. Oh, and Toys For Bob are so obviously making a new Spyro game now that they've confirmed a publishing deal with Xbox. Can you take a guess at who is super excited about that one?


    Kat has been checking out Little Hope from the Dark Pictures Anthology, Josh has used his well deserved days off to play cyberpunk roguelite The Land Beneath Us and Miles has finally got his hands on Hades II and well, he likes it alot. Oh, and Rossko has turned on his Xbox and played the glorious Hypercharge Unboxed!


    In recommendations Miles has finally seen The Boys (well the first few eps), Josh is recommending a Netflix show called Scavengers Reign, the animation that everyone is talking about and it finally gets to us (we get to all the cool stuff...eventually). Rossko wants everyone in the world to check out the brand new Eminem track and Kat watched most of the new J-Lo film Atlas..but not all of it.

  • This week it's another rough one for news so the gang (the gang being Rossko, Miles, Kat and Josh) get together to talk everything 2024 so far and what our highlights and lowlights have been along with our possible Game of the Year so far (hint: we all pick exactly the same one). Whilst it's been a quality year for games so far it's been a very difficult one for the industry, and we do our best to celebrate what those amazing developers have made for us whilst raising a glass to those who have been unceremoniously removed from their jobs along the way.


    In our one bit of news (ironically announced minutes after we finished up last week) we talk the announcement of Assassin's Creed Shadows, the brand new iteration of the series and the very first set in Japan. We like what we're hearing so far coming from the Ubisoft camp about this one, so hopefully there's plenty to get excited about in this upcoming entry. Will it get the naysayers back on board? We discuss. Oh, and the traditional question quiz returns and it's absolute bloody chaos from question one as ever. You've missed it, right? Tell us you have, we didn't go through that for nothing, we hope.


    In Game of the Week Josh talks about the top down puzzler Paper Trail, Miles has very nearly completed Senua's Saga: Hellblade II and tells us all about it (along with the super fun Galacticare) and Kat is back on her Dead by Daylight train whilst Ross is getting hyped for the next season of Fortnite. Who knew?!


    In recommendations Kat does NOT recommend watching the Uncharted film (we've been sayin'), Miles recommends POOLS, a game that's not a game but is a game but it's cool (reviewed now on Fingerguns.net!), Josh has been checking out The Curse on Paramount+ whilst Rossko finally gets to talk about Doctor Who for a bloody change and it goes about as well as you can imagine..

  • We're back once again to talk all things video games and probably Taylor Swift in episode 252 of The Finger Guns Podcast. Join Rossko, Miles and Kat as they dredge through the weeks news which is primarily focused on the fallout of Microsoft huge studio closures from last week and what the hell came next.


    First up, Xbox president Sarah Bond came out to try to defend the companies decision to sack hundreds of employees through closing award winning studios and breaking down award winning companies so yeah, there's that. Oh and Xbox announced, the day after closing Tango Gameworks (the one who made BAFTA-winning small game Hi-Fi Rush) that they want to focus on games which are small and award winning. You couldn't make this up, we are truly bereft with Xbox right now. They've certainly fudged around and found out, indeed.


    Oh, and there's a third Jurassic Park Evolution on the way and Miles is, weirdly hyped? We find out more. A FLYING T-REX.


    In Game of the Week Miles has been playing Dredge and the latest rhythm shooter that we call Robobeat while Kat has stuck out Fallout Shelter for a second week running whilst Rossko has been checking out Crow Country and the wonderful Animal Well.


    In recommendations Miles talks up the latest Saw movie, Kat recommends the Natural History Museum (don't get married there though, tis pricey) and Rossko wants everyone check out the demo for the lovely little indie Fishbowl.


    Oh, and don't miss Kat's Candy Crush Saga story. It's one for the ages.
