Guild Wars 2

Somehow October has crept up on us in a lederhosen. Stay vigilant out there. In this episode we have pretending to care about Star Wars, Oktoberfest history and some games that don’t involve a screen alongside the games that need a screen. That’ll be Gears 5, Untitled Goose Game, Bloodstained and Link’s Awakening then.

It's a week of "things that aren’t happening". Wellness isn’t happening to Rob, kitchen perils aren’t happening to Zac and games aren’t happening to Dan at all.

In this episode: Assassin’s Creed 3, Shadow Realms, Grow Home, Phantom Dust, #IDARB, Counter Strike: Global Offensive, Guild Wars 2, Homeworld, Mass Effect, Dwarf Fortress, bull hits and bull misses.

In this episode: Minimum, Super Time Force Ultra, Guild Wars 2, Dolphin, Grim Fandango, Halo: Master Chief Collection, Factorio, Theme Hospital, D4

And as always please like, subscribe, share, tweet, facebook, join the conversation, become socially inept, board up your windows and sacrifice a mongoose on an alter made of smartphones and SEGA Megadrives if you want to hear us whispering to you in your sleep.

I don't work in the manufacturing industry but if I did I would want everything to be made by robot arms, possibly robot arms making robot arms to make more robot arms. Perhaps this is the true singularity. It’s got nothing to do with AI, just a pile of robot arms that eventually engulfs the planet. Oh how I muse.

In this episode: Sunset Overdrive, Halo Nightfall, Infinifactory, Counter Strike: Global Offensive, Factorio, Guild Wars 2, Hololens, Halo 5: Guardians and Transistor.

It's official, January sucks. Trying to remember how you functioned before having a ton of time off to just lounge about and play video games is really hard, the gaming news dries up and it’s cold. Is "post-holiday-depression" a thing?

Help counter those January blues with an episode of the SaladCast! In our first podcast of 2015 we talk about a few films, DDoS attacks, Valkyria Chronicles, Guild Wars 2, Transistor, Counter Strike: Global Offensive, Halo 5, Sunset Overdrive.

Internet routers suck too.

Running late but sounding great, it's another episode of videogame podcast The SaladCast. December is a busy time for everyone as Dan entertains guests with mince pies missing out on the discussions including:

The Playstation Experience, The Game Awards, Uncharted 4, Zelda for Wii U, Steam auctions, the year of broken games, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Bayonetta 2, Street Fighter V, Final Fantasy VII, EVE Online, Torchlight 2, Guild Wars 2 and Valkyria Chronicles.

So it seems there are games now. 2014 was feeling a little empty for a bit huh?

In this episode: Bayonetta 2, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, Freelancer, Assassin's Creed Unity, Sonic Boom, Guild Wars 2, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, EVE Online, Space Engineers, Halo: Master Chief Collection

In another convention special Dan brings you news from not one, but TWO conventions that happened in the last two weeks. Rob only brought one convention and now wonders if the others consider him a cheapskate.

In this episode we talk about #EGX, Star Trek, Prison Architect, Octahedron, Elite Dangerous, Alien: Isolation, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, Halo Master Chief Collection, Sonic Boom, Splatoon, Yoshi's Woolly World, Screamride, Gang Beasts, Poncho, Dream, Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, EVE Online, Guild Wars 2, Guacamelee, FTL: Faster Than Light, Forza Motorsport 5, Batman: Arkham City and Planetary Annihilation.

Leather Jackets are pretty loud. Dan wears one for the duration of this episode of the video game podcast, "The SaladCast". See how many times you can hear it squeak and then see if remember anything that's been discussed. You may have missed many of the informed discussions covering an array of topics including kitchens, toothpaste, Destiny, Minecraft, Super Smash Bros. Final Fantasy XV, Theatrythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call, FTL, Planetary Annihilation, Guild Wars 2, Batman: Arkham City, Guacamelee, Threes, Mario Kart: Super Circuit and plenty more.

Now that England are out of the world cup we can all focus on the important things in life such as appropriate utensils for eating noodles.

In this episode of the SaladCast we cover New Super Mario Bros. U, Bravely Default (it's back!), Sonic Lost World, Child of Light, EVE Online, Guild Wars 2, Banished, the Steam Summer Adventure, Halo: Spartan Assault, FIFA 14 and Rob just had to get a PvZ mention in here too.

Have you ever abstained from a good thing for a long period of time to make it better when you finally do succumb? It's kinda awesome. So maybe now is the time rekindle your appreciation for three random blokes talking rubbish about games? It’s the SaladCast!

This week, Bravely Default (still), LEGO City Undercover, New Super Mario Bros. U, Skyrim, Destiny, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, Mario Kart 8, Minesweeper and Garden Warfare.

I missed you proper take away pizza. Let’s never fight again.

It's Season 5 and by now you should know what the start of a new season means. A new theme song! That’s pretty much it. Enjoy!

This week we talk about TitanFall, Yoshi’s New Island, Plants vs. Zombies, Bravely Default, Dark Souls 2, Microsoft Rumours, Papers Please, 3D Ecco the Dolphin, Films, Guild Wars 2, Sim City, VR, UE4, other acronyms and more!

WOOOOOAH TitanFa-all! Titanfall for yoooooooo...

Season 4 comes to an end in the most regular of styles! The crew decide to mark this special event with a normal episode spectacular!

This week we talk about Final Fantasy XIII-2, Plants Vs Zombies: Garden Warfare, online gambling, Guild Wars 2, Bravely Default, Beyond: Two Souls, Senran Kagura Burst, Battlefield 4 and Pokémon X and Y.

Have you ever tried listening to yourself from several years ago? It's a bizarre experience that leaves you doubting your memories and reassured by the constants. Except the constant of those who are picky about language. That was old then.

This week we talk about the biggest EVE conflict to date, science, Bravely Default, Final Fantasy XIII-2, Civilization V, more Starbound modding, Tomb Raider, Iwata, Guild Wars 2 and other nonsense.

Now review this post for at least one millennium until error free.

Aren't colds the worst? A cold is the illness that mocks us the most. Even if a particular strain has the decency to force you into bed for long periods you are still left with a lingering cough, taunting you every time you think you are well. Grow up, colds.

This week, if you can hear us through Rob’s sudden expulsions of air, we talk about Nintendo, King, Rogue Legacy, Starbound, Beyond: Two Souls, Injustice: Gods Among Us, Antichamber, Guild Wars 2, Pinball FX 2, Pokémon, Civ V and more!

It's a biggie! The milestone of 100 episodes has been reached and by total luck it’s also time to sort out the weak from the guff as we do The SaladCast GOTY Awards 2013! Get hype!

It should come as no shock that there will be spoilers and dumb decisions ahead. You have been warned.

Nope, I'm not going to say anything clever this time... What do you mean I never say anything clever? That’s just rude.

This week we talk about the last of The Last of Us, Pokémon Y, Grand Theft Auto V, Sim City (again?), Guild Wars 2, Assassin’s Creed IV, MtG:DotP 2013, Command & Conquer, Civ V, and next-gen rumblings! If you’re lucky, some of the news may even be factually correct!

At this point, it must be people like Zac that keep EA and Maxis hopeful that SimCity isn't all that bad. Except that every time he plays, it all seems that bad. He’s some kind of mayoral masochist. Perhaps we need some kind of intervention.

This week we talk about launch game delays, The Last of Us, Sonic: The Lost World, Grand Theft Auto V, SimCity, Guild Wars 2, Awesomenauts, Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door and some news (kinda).

Introducing an exciting new brand of consumer products from the minds at happysalad and The SaladCast. RobCo announces a number of amazing products that will steal your mind and blow your heart. Listen to this episode for all the life changing revelations.

Also this week we talk about GTA V, Awesomenauts, Valve stuff, iOS7, the District line, Awesomenauts, Civilization V, Hotline Miami, Vita TV and more.

Compliments from your Mum always feel loaded. To that end, it's probably a good thing that ours aren’t listeners of the SaladCast. They could make it weird.

This week there’s more XBOX One and PS4 news, SimCity patch news, XCOM: Enemy Within, Saints Row IV, The Bureau, Guild Wars 2, Gunpoint, Plants Vs Zombies 2, Bioshock Infinite and Awesomenauts.

The return of the sun brings some danger with it. Some people may try and convince you that there's a better world out there in the light. All you will find is MORE world. It’s like a disappointing RPG. Count on the SaladCast to provide you with useful public service information.

This week there’s Nintendo Direct news, Zac getting a 3DS, Spec Ops: The Line, Kerbal Space Program, Sim Farm, Injustice, children with footballs, Assassin’s Creed Revelations, the Tog scale, Burnout Paradise, Guild Wars 2, Planetside 2, Bioshock Infinite and more.

Everyone needs to get piz’d.

In the wake of the PS4 reveal GDC doesn't have the same gravitas of previous years for video game news. In reality this event isn’t really for us consumers, it’s for the developers. It’s in the name... So while we hold on for E3 we’ll just keep doing what we do: playing games and talking rubbish.

This week we talk about Lucas Arts and their work, Assassin’s Creed Revelations, Bioshock Infinite, Need For Speed: Most Wanted, Guild Wars 2, Planetside 2, new Metal Gear Solid, DiRT 2 and 3, Bit Trip Runner 2, SONY hardware and more.

One game dominates the discussion this week. Can you guess what it is? It might have already been mentioned somewhere in this post (hint: try the title).

This week, Durango and Orbis spec rumours, how not to make a Dead Space game, XCOM, Coffee, CoD BLOPS 2 multiplayer woes, Sonic and Guild Wars 2.

2012 is drawing to a close and that means it's GOTY time! This might be the one time in the year we carefully consider which games deserve honour and which deserve being locked in a room with a small radio playing Paul McCartney’s Christmas song on repeat forever.

Awards include "Best game that hasn’t really come out yet", “Worst audio thing”, “Biggest surprise” and “Most baffling decision” amongst others and of course the coveted SaladCast GOTY.

After a slight break in our regular schedule due to both Zac and Dan being incapacitated last week we are back! And Halo 4 arrived!

Zac plays a number of little games this week including Towns, FTL, and Cargo Commander whilst recounting the occurrences during the Guild Wars 2 "Lost Shores" event. Rob takes on two of this year's biggest “triple A’s” with Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 and a bit of Halo 4.

I don't know about nature. It's alive, varied and mostly outdoors. 3 things you probably wouldn’t associate with the typical gamer. But here we are, recording a podcast OUTSIDE! Somehow we rattle through a lot of recent releases with little to no hesistancy. Maybe the slight breeze casts Haste upon our vocals?

Zac covers the indie scene once more with the Minecraft Adventure update, completing S.P.A.Z. two more times (jeez) and Blocks that Matter. Dan continues to catch up to Zac in Deus Ex: Human Revolution while Rob continues his Kinect pratfalling in front of Rise of Nightmares and Child of Eden. There’s even a little Gears of War 3, so you should have nothing left to grind... y'know... like "grinds my gears"... nevermind.

Another special guest joins the fray in the form of Matt Makin with the inexplicable power of causing himself to record at a different rate to everyone else. Made the editing REEEAL easy I can tell ya.

Rob starts his Rockstar pilgrimage in yet more Red Dead coverage, Zeg thought he'd caught them all but them Pokémon just messed up his life some more and Matt rebuilds the clan of merciless killers in Assassin's Creed Brotherhood.
