    Gaming Lobby #13: talking loot

    Fancy a bit of loot? That’s the question facing Hannah, Matt and Steve, as they return for the latest episode of The Gaming Lobby podcast! Microtransactions, loot creates, and in game purchases have been attracting the ire of the team this time around. Where’s the line? What’s right, what’s wrong, and what state is in the industry in? Plus: are YouTubers part of the problem? All these are discussed in a very calm and not ranty way. And then, just to round things off, the trio test their ears with the regular gaming sound quiz at the end…. ---   The Gaming Lobby is a monthly podcast from www.whynowgaming.com.

    Gaming Lobby #12: gaming snobbery

    Snobbery, snobbery, snobbery. That’s the topic in hand as Hannah, Matt and Steve return for the latest episode of The Gaming Lobby. Snobbishness in and towards videogames gets the trio talking: Matt takes on console gaming, Steve has some words about mobile games, Hannah has views on frame rates. Between them all, much to discuss. And then? There’s the small matter of their little quiz show at the end. Loser reads the credits. Regular listeners will be able to hazard a decent guess at who that person is… ---   The Gaming Lobby is a monthly podcast from www.whynowgaming.com.

    Gaming Lobby #11: when games become films/TV shows

    The Gaming Lobby videogaming podcast is turning its attention towards movies and TV shows this month. After all, history has taught us that nothing works more seamlessly than turning a much-loved game into a movie. Gulp. Hannah Rutherford (@lomadia), Steve Kelly and Matt Taylor are your hosts, and obviously they amiably agree as always... They also round off the episode with one of the easier gaming sound quizzes they’ve done – but who will emerge victorious, and who’s going to have to read out the end credits?   ---   The Gaming Lobby is a monthly podcast from www.whynowgaming.com.

    Gaming Lobby #10: games and violence

    Get ready for blood, guts and corruptible minds in the latest episode of The Gaming Lobby podcast.   Hannah Rutherford (@lomadia), Steve Kelly and Matt Taylor are your hosts for another delve into the world of videogames.   In their crosshairs this time? Violence in videogames, a topic for which Hannah put on her Doom T-shirt. The trio look at some of history’s most notable violent games, and debate just how much impact it all has.   Once they’re done with their punch-up, they get down to the business of the gaming sounds quiz. Loser, as always, has to read the end credits…   ---   The Gaming Lobby is a monthly podcast from www.whynowgaming.com. Please subscribe and leave a nice review!     Hosted on Acast.

    Gaming Lobby #9: physical vs digital

    They’re back, and they’re arguing again! Hannah Rutherford (@lomadia), Steve Kelly and Matt Taylor are your hosts for another delve into the world of videogames.   This time, what starts as a straightforward debate about the merits of both physical and digital games goes down a rabbit hole of collectables and an unexpected Banjo Kazooie impression. Plus there’s the moment when Football Manager got installed onto a school server…   Once they’ve finished ‘debating’, the show ends as always with the sound quiz. But who will have the forfeit of reading out the end credits?   ---   The Gaming Lobby is a monthly podcast from www.whynowgaming.com. Please subscribe and leave a nice review!   Hosted on Acast.

    Gaming Lobby #8: soundtracks

    It's the latest episode of Gaming Lobby, Hannah Rutherford (@lomadia), Steve Kelly and Matt Taylor stop playing games for a while to listen to them instead! They celebrate the quality of videogame scores and salute some of their highlights, and there's a mandated mention too of the mighty Parappa The Rappa. Plus, Hannah's trip to listen to a video score concert, and not quite getting the music she was expecting. As always, they go head-to-head at the end of the episode for the traditional sound quiz, and there's no hint at all of them being competitive about it.

    Gaming Lobby #7: the multiplayer episode

    Hannah Rutherford (@lomadia), Steve Kelly and Matt Taylor - the Gaming Lobby team, - return to chat games, test their skills, and hope that producer Chris hasn't put an outtake in the mix as a post-credits sting. It's multiplayer games that they're turning their attention to this episode. What do they play? What are the multiplayer games they've enjoyed from yesteryear? And are they any good? Plus, a few words on Steamdeck, escape rooms, and esports in Dundee. Then, of course, they go head-to-head at the end of the episode for the traditional sound quiz. Nothing could go wrong there... --- The Gaming Lobby is a monthly podcast from www.whynowgaming.com. Please subscribe and leave a nice review! Hosted on Acast.

    Gaming Lobby #6: reboots, remakes, reskins

    Hannah Rutherford (@lomadia), Steve Kelly and Matt Taylor - the Gaming Lobby team, - turn their brains and eyes towards gaming remakes. Obviously, as always, it's a very grown up and proper conversation, that in no way segues into, er, more 'off piste' moments. They lament gaming manuals. Matt offers a tenner (not a real one) to anyone who can beat him at Mario Kart. Producer Chris sighs, but gets all happy when Prince Of Persia is mentioned. And then there's the quiz at the end too... --- The Gaming Lobby is a monthly podcast from www.whynow.co.uk. Please subscribe and leave a nice review! Hosted on Acast.
