#232: WARFACE!
Tuesday Oct 16, 2018
Tuesday Oct 16, 2018
In case you haven't heard, Warface is coming to Xbox One... After coming to Xbox 360 in 2013. Its ok, we don't understand either.
Simone is still Red Deading it up, Lee has finished the Forsaken story, and all three of us are still only slightly obsessed with Forza Horizon 4.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Quadruple I is here to crush what remains of PUBG, and it brings a heap of ID@Xbox friends along. There really is something for everyone this week.
What has really gotten us excited this week is the news of Project xCloud - the new game streaming project Microsoft announced. We talk the possible tech behind this and what ot means for the game industry while rumors of Obsidian being sold to Microsoft are flying about. And to add a cheery to the tip of this wek - Forza Horizon 4 is the fastest selling game of the series so far!
(You really should be playing it buy now!)

Friday Oct 05, 2018
Friday Oct 05, 2018
With the smell of petrol in the air, and the arrival of cars that cost more than your house, we can safely assume its Forza season!
Thats right, Forza Horizon 4 has arrived, and its even on GamePass on Day 1! You have no excuse for not playing it.
In this very special normal episode, join Kyle and Lee as they talk about their experience in what is the arguably the best racing game ever made.
Did they enjoy it? What was good? What was great? And what blew the doors off?
This is our Forzathon. A semi deep dive into the Forza Horizon 4 experience.

#230: A Lack Of Leather Pants
Saturday Sep 29, 2018
Saturday Sep 29, 2018
No more fancy intros. Nothing different about the hosts. This is a 100% normal episode. There is nothing to be afraid of.
Have you heard of Abzu? Well you will now. Its on GamePass so you have no excuse for not playing. On a completely unrelated note, guess what Kyle has been playing? Lee, of course has been playing Destiny 2 Forsaken - shout out to Northstar for adopting us into their clan!
This week we have a ton of games that will, have, or are about to launch. Dakar 18, Fifa 19, Valkyria Chronicles 4 and this little indoe racing game - Forza Horizon 4. Well Forza for the people who pre-ordered. The rest of us have to wait till next week. We are so hyped for this game!
In the news, we have exciting new games coming to GamePass with Wolfenstein and Metro 2033! Mouse and keyboard support is headed to the land of Xbox. Not top sure how to feel about this one... And of course, all the Destiny news you can handle... Thanks Lee!

#229: Just Ignore My Hands
Tuesday Sep 25, 2018
Tuesday Sep 25, 2018
Are you ready for some news? Because thats all we're doing in this one!
Oh, and Lee has played a little indie game, not sure you'll ever hear of it - Call of Duty: Black Ops 4!
Final Fantasy's are coming to Xbox, and we couldn't be happier! If you ask us, its about time. We can't wait to dive into 7, 9 and 10 all over again. Sorry 8, but you're a bit late to this party. PUBG was broken, and then fixed, and then fixed some more in what turns out to be a rollercoaster of emotions. Alexa is now friends with Cortana, which is sweet, even if a little wrong. And we know someone who will be over the moon to hear the Lego Harry Potter is coming to Xbox as well!
But we all know what you're here for - and thats Lee's Blackout Beta Review! Listen to what he says about the new Call of Duty, and why PUBG should be worried. Very worried. Just ignore our hands as we dive in.

#228: Do Dinosaurs Eat Brussel Sprouts?
Friday Sep 07, 2018
Friday Sep 07, 2018
Do dinosaurs eat brussel sprouts? We try to find out!
Simone is having a hard time with driving a horse and shooting the bad guys in Red Dead Redemption. And dating more pigeons. These two might be related... Kyle is getting absorbed into Gears of War 4 and has managed to convince Lee to play too. No seriously, check out our YouTube! And everyone is still being amazed at the beauty of Star Wars Battlefront 2.
In the news, PUBG gets achievements, Forza Horizon 4 releases its achievements and Gears of War 4 is getting ready for its final achievements... To remember all of that is quite an achievement!
We have 20 new games on Xbox releasing this week, and Simone goes through most of them.
But the best news to come out of this week - Henry Cavill is going to be Geralt - The Witcher - in a new Netflix series!

Saturday Sep 01, 2018
Do you want to learn all about tupperware parties? Do you even know what a tupperware party is? Well, you're in luck - our special guest Jeremy is here to explain everything you need to know about them. From how to get started, to what you need, to even what tupper really is. You don't want to miss this one!
With Simone being away, we take the time to reflect on the lull of news by talking about Xbox All Access! It's real, it's a thing, and no, Phil will not come to your house if you buy it. Trust us, we asked...
We also talk about games, and in particular - No Man's Sky - which has absorbed Jeremy's life. Star War Battlefront 2 - which has absorbed Kyle's life. And of course, Forza Horizon 2 - which has absorbed Lee's life.
Also, something something about Destiny 2?

#226: Gamescom Hype Train 2018
Friday Aug 24, 2018
Friday Aug 24, 2018
We're back! And Just in time to get on the Gamescom Hype Train for this year.
Gamescom happened this week in Germany! And were pretty sure you aren't tired of hearing about it yet. There is a ton of news to get through. From PUBG controllers to Battlefield V Special Edition Xbox One X's and everything in between. Sea of Thieves gets an expansion, State of Decay 2 gets an expansion, PUBG gets a release date and Hunt: Showdown pops up on our radars. We have the freshest Xbox news, shipped to you straight from Germany, via the internet to us. And then to you.
Simone has come around to loving Halo, just like we knew she would, Kyle takes more drugs in Fallout 4 and Lee races around the French country side in Forza Horizon 4. And because you've missed us, there is always talk about Destiny 2...

#225: The 50th Episode
Saturday Aug 04, 2018
Saturday Aug 04, 2018
This here is a very special episode. For you see, its our 50th episode ever!
What? We never did any beta episodes. No idea what you're talking about.
Anyways! This time we start off a bitt differently. The format is undergoing a revision, so please let us know what you think.
Kyle plays Sea of Thieves, becomes a drug addict in Fallout 4 and tells some really awesome jokes. Simone talks to us about Quantum Break and the amazing end boss fight. Lee... Lee has been driving cars. Not real cars. Forza Horizon cars. To be honest, we're starting to get a bit worried.
In the news, Sea of Thieves hits 5 million players, Xbox Game Pass gets an annual subscription and over 9 million people have joined Lee in their car hobby as Forza Horizon 3 announces its player base numbers.
As a reminder, on the 4th of August, at 7ish PM New Zealand time, join us on our Mixer channel as we celebrate hitting 50 episodes with a live stream and some friends.
