How To Murder Time

This week we’re back in the lab and playing a board game: Tales of the Arabian Nights. This is a narrative driven game that shares lots in common with Choose Your Own Adventure books, but is it any good?

This week we’ve been playing the following games: Saints Row 3 Defiance Prison Architect Mass Effect 2 Grid 2 The Secret World Planetside 2 Take on Mars (take mars on) Papers Please Rift Space Hulk Burnout Paradise Minecraft with you lot.

This week we return with tales of new PCs!We also talk about the following things: Galactic Reign Planetside 2 Gears of War in PC Defiance Assassin’s Creed (on PC) Defiance (and the TV show…) Citadels Star Trek Online Unity, and why game development is great RIFT Why some online stores are rubbish because they lie about having A-Wings in stock.

This week we’re back playing games! Mass Effect 3 Galactic Reign Rift Grand Turismo 6 Demo Fez Arkham Asylum Defiance Minecraft Eve has cards now!

Hello! We took a week off, but luckily for you all we recorded a short episode the other week about the wonders of having enforced leisure time and it’s ability to let you get to know daytime TV better. Normal service will resume next week, where we promise to talk about games.

This week we’re taking a look at Indie Game: The Movie, a look at the  development of Braid, Super Meat Boy and Fez. Will it turn us into game developers, or will it make us question why anybody would want to put themselves through the experience of game development?

This week we’ve been surviving the zombie apocalypse, even though it’s not really about zombies, finding flaws with Star Trek Online, Pondering the new Xbox, building things out of blocks, being Batman, liberating Mars and getting lost in Skyrim.

This week we’ve mainly been playing: Planetside 2 Remember me Star Trek Online The Last of Us The Saboteur We’ve also decided that Steam Badges are evil and that free development tools are great.

This week we’re getting lost in the world with Geoguessr, shooting people in Planetside 2, crashing cars in Grid 2, flying space ships in Star Trek Online,  crashing space ships in Kerbal Space Program, making the world a better place in Saboteur and making the world a worse place in Saints Row the Third. There’s also a bit of talk about Malifaux because painting models is cool. Seriously though, Australia needs more road signs!

This week we’re talking about Planetside 2, Xbox One, Doctor Who (there’s probably a very meta Saturday afternoon football results being on before Doctor Who joke here that is too obscure for anybody to get), Star Trek Online and Asheron’s Call for some reason that I’m still not sure about.

After some more production problems we return this episode with freaky 70s nostalgia sweets and games! This time we cover: Star Trek Into Darkness Planetside 2 Battlestar Galactica: Pegasus Ingress Gratuitous Space Battles Park Run Quarriors Star Trek Online Star Command Dishonoured

This week we watch films, play bad games and find out that TIE Fighters are still overpowered.

This week we’re back in the lab and playing Pandemic, the cooperative board game  about disease control. Will we save humanity, or will we get fail and let you all die?

This week we return with tales of new TVs, new dimensions and increased Ingress related paranoia. Planetside 2 Ingress Red Faction Armageddon Red Faction Guerrilla Bioshock Infinite Uncharted 3(D) Dredd 3D Pixel People Nimble Quest Cut The Rope Gratuitous Space Battles Ms ‘Sploision Man Star Trek TNG Season 2 blu-ray

This week we return after an unscheduled break with another delve into how we spend out time between shows. Games, nearly getting murdered, some really bad TV and a great board game feature this week.
