The Brutal Gamer Podcast features video game news, opinions and all sorts of random off-topic tangents. Featuring a rotating cast of Brutal Gamer staff.

Hosts: Harry, Mike & Robbie

After a long absence and several technical issues, the Brutal Gamer Podcast is back.  For this episode, the crew talk about Trials Evolution, Fez, Mass Effect 3 and Lone Survivor, to name but a few games.  We also discuss our thoughts on downloable games on PSN and Xbox Live in general, the announcement of God of War Ascension, and how many James Bond games were actually good.  All this and more on the 90th episode of the Brutal Gamer Podcast.

A mostly different combination of hosts this week, as the BG crew gets together to talk about Journey, FIFA and a lot of Vita games.  We also look at GAME's continuing woes, the rumours about Microsoft's next console, Peter Molyneux's decision to set up his own indie studio and Phil Harrison's new job.  All this and more on the 89th episode of the Brutal Gamer Podcast.

The Brutal Gamer Podcast is back, minus one Irish host.  Instead, Harry attempts to steer the good ship BG through talk of Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, Maple Story, Grand Slam Tennis 2 and Edge.  In addition, we chat about the Double Fine Kickstarter deal, EA's Mass Effect 3 balloons, Mike's viewing habits on Netflix, Harry's experience with OnLive and Dan's time at the Global Game Jam.  The Indie Interview also returns, as Barry had a chat with Pineapple Smash Crew creator Richard Edwards.  This is the 87th episode of the Brutal Gamer Podcast.

We're back, in what has been the podcast's most consistent run for quite a while.  Newly minted Editor-in-Chief Zeth makes a return to a show in which we discuss new games like Kingdoms Of Amalur: Reckoning and Saints Row: The Third, new versions of old games like Dizzy, and old versions of old games like Syndicate.  In addition, we discuss 3DS vs. Vita, Barry's annoyances with DLC, the rumours about the next Xbox, Nintendo's NFC and their reported losses.  All this and more on the 86th episode of the Brutal Gamer Podcast.

This week, Brutal Gamer's resident Canadian Dan makes his first appearance on the podcast from a noisy house.  We talk yet more Skyrim with two very different opinions.  In addition, we talk Pocket League Story, online Pokémon, SOPA, Resident Evil 6, the upcoming Global Game Jam and much, much more.  Welcome to the 85th episode of the Brutal Gamer Podcast.

Plus, for those of you who've bought the Brutal Gamer Podcast app, we have some bonus content in which we talk about, oddly enough, Michael Bay.  Specifically an iO9 article entitled "Michael Bay Finally Made An Art Movie"

If you're looking for a podcast where you can learn about Modern Warfare 3, Battlefield 3 and the best way to drink Earl Grey all in the same show, then you've come to the right place.  After the 'show that never happened', Barry and Mike are joined by Robbie Scotland to talk about the two big shooters on the block, as well as a skimming over of some news from the last week.  And just where is Rooibos from?  All this and more on the 83rd episode of the Brutal Gamer Podcast.

(Apologies for the problems with Robbie's audio.  Audacity made a mess of it and I couldn't fix it without re-editing the podcast from scratch.)

A special episode of the BrutalGamer Podcast this week, coming from Vienna, Austria. Barry is joined by VICE magazine's Games Editor, Josef Zorn and they spend the hour discussing everything from Max Payne 3 and Zelda: Skyward Sword, to rude shop assisstants. Also included: bizarre, literal translations of common English phrases. And Barry loves Rayman. Go figure.
