Indie Game Ravers

Adam, Ben & Dave take a look back at The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt on the 2nd Anniversary of its release in this super special Bonus Episode of the Out of Lives Podcast! The original game launched on the 19th of May 2015, with 2 major expansions following in the year that followed. After several hundred hours of playtime each, it is no surprise that we think this is one of the best games ever made; The Game of The Decade at least. So join us for a chat about the adventures of our respective Geralt’s of Rivia…  

This week, your regular host is joined by Alfred, who returns, triumphantly, to the podcast having killed everyone else for dissing him in previous episodes (not really). In this exciting episode we discuss the breaking news from Ubisoft, Sonic’s new game trailer, Star Wars: Rebels and the disappointing news that 2 big franchises might be in trouble despite successful releases. We hope you enjoy the show and don’t forget to join us next week! P.S. Check back Friday for a little Bonus

Ben and Aadil are in the same room! Joined via interwebs by the beeresistible Lucy. We talk “Little Nightmares”, “Alien Isolation”, “Adventure Capitalist”, “Super Mario Run”, and the ideal placement of a laptop in the bathroom. We also chat around a long-running MMO having an easter egg held hostage by the second player ever to hit lvl 999. Ben and Aadil share ‘Sur Sorachi Ace’ Pale Ale from “To Øl”, before moving on to the “Verdant” ‘Even Sharks Need Water’ IPA. Lucy starts off with ‘New World Odyssey’ from “Fallen Brewery”, followed up by the “Brouwerij de Molen” ‘Vuur & Vlam’. Apologies for the high-pitch humming, new mic = new audio snags, should be sorted for next episode.

Ben and Aadil are joined by the lovely Lucy once again for the last of our Cloud Water DIPA specials. We talk the difference between seeking games/consoles at release versus seeking out those lucious rare craft specials, Tell Tales’ Game of Thrones & Tales from the Borderlands and a long talk about topless Link’s wild breathing on the switch. We all drank the Cloud Water DIPA v13.

Your regular host is joined by Alex & Mr Moody of the Glorious Moviescast for this weeks episode. We get stuck into the Defenders trailer, Inhumans poster/photo shoot, our thoughts on the upcoming E3, Game of Thrones spin-off thoughts and of course… Doctor Who’s latest episode! For more on the Game of Thrones chat, check out Kyle’s article on the subject here. We hope you enjoy the podcast, thanks for listening and we’ll see you again next week.

We’ve got a very special episode for you this week! Ben and Aadil took a walk down the East Bristol Brewery Trail and sat down for quite some time at Good Chemistry with the wonderful Sam Curley. We have a few great beers and chat about games, beer, custom ringtones, couch co-op & early online gaming over dialup, and a whole lot else besides. Unfortunately the tech problems of previous weeks lost some quality chat, including some excellent talk about Batman. Beers we had: Natural Selection Wild Forest Redstart Rye Apologies to the folks at Good Chemistry as we lost also tried the wonderfully hot long peppers used in the Wild Forest brew, both conversations were lost to the audio-app […]

Call of Duty returns to WW2, Darksiders 3 leaked and then officially announced plus we compare the shooters of 2017 with 2016’s offering. That’s right, your host Adam is joined by Aadil “The Derailer” and the Glorious Moviesman himself Mr Moody. Hope you enjoy the show! Oh and don’t forget to check out our attempt to watch the trailer together! – http://wp.me/p7v61b-34r

This week’s podcast comes to you almost a full week late… Sorry about that. Adam is joined by two other A’s this week, Alfred & Allan with a bunch of stuff to chat about: More controversy in the games industry? Some Nintendo rumours? Boardchurch finally discussed? It’s all happening on this (last) week’s Out Of Lives!

Hullo folks, had a bit of a technological SNAFU while I was off in Canadia resulting in the loss of the latter half of this ep. But then, Ben went and lost his voice the following week, so we’ve elected to release this shorty, rather than deny the throngs Tanked Up goodness. Ben starts things off with the ‘Merkel’ IPA, a colloboration between “Verdant” and “Left-handed Giant”, Aadil has the collaboration between “Powell” and “Four Winds” ‘American Farmhouse IPA’, and Lucy rounds things out with ‘Session IPA (No 73)’ from “Beerblioteque”. We return to regularly scheduled goodness next week, with our visit to the Good Chemistry Brewery!

In this weeks Out Of Lives Podcast, Adam has a breakdown over Doctor Who and the idea of having enormous amounts of money while Alfred seemingly takes over as host of the Podcast. The premier of the new series of Doctor Who and those Star Wars trailers, big business deals and Nintendo being a bit silly. It’s all happening in this weeks Out Of Lives!

This week! Adam is joined by Alfred “We Just Can’t Get Rid Of Him” Rome and for the first time on the Out Of Lives Podcast, a new addition to the Network, Dafydd “Glorious” Moody. Controversy in the Games Media Industry, and things between Alfred & Dafydd get heated over 4K TVs and Microsoft’s Project Scorpio, it’s all happening on this weeks Out Of Lives Podcast.

We are trans-atlantic once again! Ben and Lucy are joined by the prairie-bound Aadil from flattest Canadia. We talk “Mad Max”, “The Witcher 3”, “Snake Pass”, “The Binding of Isaac” as well as the the horrors of the DS3 and fighting completionist tendencies. Ben started things off with the ‘Steady Rolling Man’ American pale Ale by “Deya” and the ‘Apophenia’ trippel from Bristol’s Own “Lost & Grounded”. Aadil started off with ‘Blonde Canadian’ pale ale from “Farmery” in Manitoba, followed by the ‘Rye Ale’ by “Black Bridge Brewery” in Swift Current, Saskatchewan. Lucy had the ‘Black Bird’ black rye saison from the “Brussels Beer Project” and ‘White Noise’ white beer from New Zealand’s “Yeastie Boys”.

Your regular host Adam is joined once again by Alfred “Can you believe he admitted to being wrong on the internet” Rome and the long absent, but sorely missed Mete “Department Empire Builder” Redif. This week sees the trio chatting about Destiny 2, Total War: Warhammer 2, Mass Effect: Andromeda (No Spoilers) and plenty of added Banter as well. Hope you enjoy it and don’t forget to like, share and review the podcast on your podcasting app of choice!

It’s Ben, Aadil and Lucy this week. We played the paper-crafty puzzler “Kami 2”, “Battlefield 1” and the important pokemans in GO form. Aadil moves house and we also chat Netflix and TV shows and bad pacing, and by that I mean we rag on Ironfist. Ben and Aadil start off with ‘Oolala’ Amber Ale from “New Bristol” brewery. Aadil finished off with the ‘West Indies Porter’ from Guinness, while Ben goes with the ‘Rye Pale ale’ also from Guinness. Lucy has The ‘Early Grey’ IPA from “Marble Brewery”, and the “Six Degrees North” and “Cloud Water” collaboration ‘Moutueka’ Tripel.

Nintendo unleashed the first Test Fire for Splatoon 2  during March and we’ve got together to throw paint around and discuss what we liked and didn’t. Ben is joined by first time On The Testers Andy Webb and Lucy Yearwood who give their thoughts on the beta as well as the game itself, what they enjoyed and what they’d want from Splatoon 2 in the future.  

This week’s Out of Lives Podcast contains a bumper crop of voices! Your host, Adam, is joined by Alfred, Dave & special Guest Jonn… or Bob, we’re never quite sure. TIGA published a report on the state of the UK Game Development Industry, the stupidity of the internet crops up in conversation yet again (damn you trolls!) not to mention we chat about Mass Effect: Andromeda… a lot.

We talk more Tom Clancy’s(tm) Ghost Recon: Wildlands, Manual Samuel, Bye-bye BoxBoy, and Lucy’s first impressions of Splatoon 2. Ben and Aadil start off with the “Verdant” ‘I played trumpet on that tune’ IPA, and follow it up with the ‘Kokomo Weekend’ IPA from our friends over at “Good Chemistry”. Lucy’s starts off with the aptly named ‘Numero Uno’ Lager from “Flying Dog”, and “Crate” Brewery’s ‘Watermelon’ wheat ale.

Its another Cloud Water Special this week, with your hosts Ben and Aadil trying out the DIPA v11 and v12! Joining us this week is Lucy Yearwood, also partaking in the v12 and the Beavertown Double Chine DIPA. We talk Lumo, the Metal Gear Solid series, and the loveliness that is Tearaway with all its papercrafty goodness. Shout out to the Vita.

It is a fun episode this week as your regular host, Adam, is joined by “Chief Interviewer” Alex & “Revealed a bit too much of himself” Allan. 2 Guests making their debuts on the same podcast, what a treat for them and for you dear listeners! The good news is that not much seems to have changed; there are plenty of tangents, derailments and the usual banter had. The topics covered this week are; Robot Wars, Broadchurch, Venom & Iron Fist.

This weeks episode is an absolute belter! Alfred forgets how conversations work, Adam refuses to restart the podcast & Aadil wants a lot of things cut… particularly when he says something stupid. Other topics covered are Game Of Thrones Season 7/8 news, catching up with Microsoft, Rocket League sales figures & a chat about game review scores. Review the show, like it, share it with your friends and contact us via the email address podcast@outoflives.net if you want to let us know your thoughts on the show. Thanks for listening!
