    The Last of Us: A Button Boys Special

    With Pierre off in Japan and Sarah still salty about their recent loss over on Patreon, we decided to dedicate a whole episode to The Last of Us games. And who better to join us than the award-winning journalist, author, host of My Perfect Console and friend of the show, Simon 'Podcast' Parkin. Simon edited the recently announced Look for the Light: The Last of Us Anthology, which contains interviews, essays and critical dispatches. While putting it together he caught up with Neil Druckmann himself to reflect on the making of the games and their cultural impact. We'll also catch up with what they've been playing, with World Cup mashups, addictive dice games and real-life robberies, and Simon reveals his dream podcast guest (excluding the Button Boys of course).

    Empty Calorie Gaming

    This week's topic, as kindly suggested by BirdsNest on the Discord, is the vacuous, time-wasting, mind-numbing empty-calorie games that we just can't get enough of. As always, we catch up with what the Boys have been up to. Pierre's headed into training against the hard-as-nails CPU in a quarter-of-a-century old game, and Glenn, Sarah and Producer Ben have been off to a very swanky event for a little sneak peek (and sausages).

    Hate to Love: The Games that Converted Us

    The Button Boys are back to defy all expectations, turn everything on its head and redefine everything you hold dear. Or talk about games they thought they didn't like and now they do, whichever's easiest. This week on the gaming road to Damascus it's all about U-turns. Pierre has done an about-face on story games, Sarah's done a 180 on wacky gunslingers and Glenn's completely Lego of his prejudices with the blocky franchise. But first, the Boys catch up with what they've been playing. Sarah's immediately broken the rules from last week's podcast, Pierre's embraced it with both hands and Glenn's got a sneak peek at a sequel of one of his all-time favourites.

    CEX Appeal: The Gift Game

    Fresh episode, come get your fresh episode! You'll pay how much? Practically robbing me at that price. Go on then, fill yer boots. If you hadn't guessed already, this week the Boys have headed off to the market on the hunt for the best cheap games they can get their hands on. Armed with £15, they've been haggling and bartering to find the most appealing game. Will they strike gold in the bargain bins or be fleeced like fools? Before all that though, we're due a big catch-up. Sarah's gone as far Inside as they can go, Pierre's not playing a war OR strategy game and Glenn's stuck deciding between an early access blockbuster and a game about someone being stuck making decisions.

    Guns, Worms and Steel: Gaming’s Best Weapons

    Slap on your scabbards and cock your pistols, it's another episode of Button Boys. This week we're rummaging around the gaming arsenal to find our most beloved weapons. From battle axes to bazookas, howitzers to holy hand grenades, we've got it covered. As always, we catch up on what the Boys have been playing, with Pierre beguiled by kingly fortunes, Sarah borrowing a stone-cold classic puzzle-platformer and Glenn splitting his time between a handsome roguelite and gas station customers in gastric distress. Stay tuned to the end as we reveal the winner of last week's game pitch competition. Will Glenn's bartender, Pierre's Benedictine monk or Sarah's brain-starved zombies win out?

    O Captain! My Captain Price: What We've Learned from Gaming

    Take out your textbooks and turn to Button Boys. It's officially the Winnie-the-Pooh episode (because of the bingo call, not because the Boys have no clothes on from the waist down). This week, it's time for a spot of revision as Glenn, Pierre and Sarah look back at what they've learned from video games. From the Byzantines to sashimi, the Boys discover that their countless hours of gaming haven't all been for nothing. But before that, we catch up on what they've been playing. Pierre's come to the end of an epic journey, Sarah's been sharing their horrifying experiences and Glenn's come to grips with the state of humanity in a post-apocalyptic world.
