This week, the boys are back at full strength and full smarm!

There's also more news, including SHOCKING DEPARTURES! And awesome new game announcements, release dates, and controversy that will leave you aghast!

A plague infected Steve and a Cool-infected Jon are back, while Kev tours the nation bringing law to the lawless. On this first new episode of 2014, Jon reviews Bravely Default and Strider, while Steve brings the hammer down on all three of the big three console manufacturers. There's also news, smarm, and more of what keeps you comin' back time after time.

In the news, John Carmack leaves Id, some Xbox Ones are breaking, some stuff is announced, and we bring back the Ambush Topic!

Jon also chimes in with his thoughts on the current gen version of CALL OF DUTY: GHOSTS, and Steve hits up the Next Gen version. The news is also dominated by Sony's wunderconsole. Should you dive into this whole Next Gen craze? Or are you better off sticking with the PS3's and Xbox360's of the world? Listen in and find out!

This week, Jon plays SONIC LOST WORLD, and some very bad things are said by at least one of the Blastphemers. Steve plays BEYOND: TWO SOULS, and Kev is still busy with HEARTHSTONE. In the news, we get up in arms over the things your shiny new PS4 won't do at launch, and we talk about one rumored (and truthfully, very unlikely) game announcement that could be coming very soon, and we weep for the current state of Epic Games. This episode brought to you by Cooking with Kev, because cooking can be fun.

This week, the team rallies all their strength to battle the legions of Hell in DIABLO III (on Console!), There's a ton of old news, we talk about random games, and KEV RETURNS!

This week, Steve plays RIDE TO HELL: RETRIBUTION while Jon suffers through DARK. Meanwhile, newcomer, Tony (filling in for the wayward Kev) chimes in with his thoughts on the first Kickstarter Blockbuster; SHADOWRUN RETURNS. There's also More Microsoft hooey, talk of a Gran Turismo movie (???), and more of what makes people love us so much!

It's the week before E3, but scouring news sites for tidbits hasn't stopped Jon from taking Insomniac Entertainment's first multi-platform title FUSE for a spin. Meanwhile, Steve chimes in on the cyberpunk adventure REMEMBER ME, and Kev tells you what he thinks of the iOS WARHAMMER QUEST! We peel back and lay down the facts on Microsoft's XBOX ONE (yes, there will be used games), and there's news, news, and more news! Finally, we give you a rundown of what we hope/expect to see from this year's E3, quite possibly the most exciting E3 ever!

Join Kev, Jon, and Steve as they pretend like they're professional gamimg journalists nd deliver a post-mortem on Microsoft's big XBOX ONE reveal! No other news, no bonus topics, and no sarcasm... we promise (we also lie). This episode brought to you by Marcus Beer and Kyle Bosman of "Annoyed Gamer" and "Final Bosman" fame -- because knowing they agree with us either makes us right, or makes them just as contrarian as we are, and that's awesome!
