Game/Life Balance Australia Game/Life Balance Australia

You can all breathe a collective sigh of relief because your favourite podcast idiots are back to discuss this year's most important gaming announcement, the release of Spy Bros: Pipi & Bibi DX on Steam. Remember that dumb arcade game we talked about back in Episode 44 where you get to see the boobahs after completing a level? Well it's back, it's on Steam, and it's completely devoid of anything the least bit arousing. Hooray! Also in this episode, Rob has been to the Gold Coast and has been playing a lot of Hell Let Loose during MAFS season, while AC has been to Japan and is playing a lot of Super Mario Bros. Wonder during... Mario season(?), PLUS Baldur's Gate 3, Streets of Rogue, Boomer John, Shigeru Miyamoto's ample bosom, and a quiz about crime games. Enjoy!

You can all breathe a collective sigh of relief because your favourite video game podcast is back once again with more drivel for your ears to absorb! That's right it's episode 112, it's the holiday season, and nothing says Christmas quite like... the Ghost In The Shell PS1 game where you pilot a little crab-like tank thingy! Also in this illustrious episode, AC has been playing video game-ass video games like Super Mario Bros. Wonder for the Nintendo Switch, while Rob has been diving (pun intended) into the weird wild world of simulator games.

Well gosh darn it the boys done recorded another prodcarste. This week we review the Game Cube version of Wario Ware (haven't we covered that game already?), Rob has been playing the Steam release of Dwarf Fortress and sinking enemy shipping in Silent Hunter 3, while AC has been playing The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and the new Mario Kart tracks. Plus we discuss exciting adult topics like the housing market and using the Play School theme to uncover fake Australians.



Our intro and outro music was supplied by Animanaguchi (without their knowledge, it's not like we know them or anything).

We're back after a 7-month break because we're nothing if not dynamic go-getters. And as always with every 5th episode it's an unstructured Stream of Nonsense, so strap in for listening joy as your hosts AC and Rob discuss the Big Tennis Racket, speedos, the joy of a samey sequel, Mickey Mouse's lack of comedic talent, how good Smash TV is (spoilers - it's very good), weird versions of DOOM, the John Candy classic Uncle Buck, and obnoxious method actors. In video game news, Wormsfest 2023 was a hit, AC has been playing Atari 50 and got his paws on another version of the thrilling Japanese train driving game Densha de Go!, while Rob has done nothing but play Hell Let Loose for the last 6 months and is looking more grizzled than a McDonalds quarter pounder patty. Plus AC goes joyriding in a vintage car, the podcast moves to Anchor FM, and more!

We’re back! Yes that’s right, we recorded another episode purely out of SPITE because Game/Life Balance US is back from the dead and we simply cannot let the Americans win! This week your old pals AC and Rob review a charming and little-known Sega Saturn game from Japan called Uno DX, which is something like a cross between Uno, a fighting game and an anime about high school. It’s supoib! Also in this stellar episode: Rob has been trying his best to keep his daughter from hurting herself, and playing a wide variety of video games with her, while playing pretty much only one video game by himself! Meanwhile AC has been spending three months of his life traipsing (or should we say gallivanting?) around Japan, catching up with family and friends, successfully avoiding the dreaded lurgi, and doing a bit of videogamesmanship on the way. PLUS we discuss Atari 50: The Anniversary Collection, AC’s Satellaview, Rob’s Hell Let Loose shenanigans, AC’s trip to Super Nintendo World, and we wrap it all up with a quiz about Same Name Reboot Games!

In this long-overdue episode we discuss the Australian federal elections, Pac-Man Versus, Rob’s bachelor party and wedding, The Legend of Tianding, Battlefield V, Hell Let Loose, the Urusei Yatsura reboot, Golf With Your Friends, Phantasy Star Online 2, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, and Skyrim in VR. Plus a fun quiz about Pac-Man!
