One Life Left is a radio show about videogames, only not really. We love games but we take them precisely as seriously as they deserve. 99% nonsense and 1% heart-stopping brilliance, they are all supposed to be fun and so are we. We have news, reviews and special guests, sure, but we also play game-related music and we have stupid game-related features like inappropriately dark-hearted poetry, gambling tips and chart news from a market stall. We're on the wonderful Resonance 104.4FM at 7PM every Monday and on the internet all the time, ever, right here.

    flipping brilliant - #627

    This week we're effing bee, part of the global hype machine, remastering AND remaking and most definitely nuanced. We discuss Selfridges London going all in on GTA6, the Steam approval problematically slow process, the White House "borrowing" Zelda imagery and EA making a stir with their back catalogue. ResonanceFM, the home of our radio show, is putting on loads of fundraising events that you should definitely check out. You can get more info on them HERE! If you're listening to this before Friday 13th November then THERE IS STILL TIME TO GET TO OUR NEXT MARAOKE SHOW!!! Funnily enough it's on Friday 13th November, it's Maraoke's 15th birthday and it's at Loading Bar in Stoke Newington. You can get your tickets HERE!

    one hour off - #625

    You know the situation: you've just shopped your friends/colleagues to your bosses and have been gifted with a glorious free hour all to yourselves but don't know how to spend it? Well, worry no more because listening to the podcast edition of the longest running video game radio show (in the English language) is the answer! That's us, by the way: One Life Left. This week we have questionable Facebook connections, next gen price madness, Activision "top games" claim, ESA go after pirates, a Super Mario 64 mystery is finally revealed and GTA 6 will be able to get some awards, maybe, so we can all relax now! Ste also checks out a new twist on an old RPG (it's Daggerfall and a vid can be seen HERE) and Simon previews Call of Duty on his Switch with his Japanese friend. Friday 13th November could be lucky for you and is the date you should, by now, know off by heart as being set for the next Maraoke event at Loading Bar in Stoke Newington. We promise not to close the venue and run off with your money! Get your tickets HERE! We're off next week so you have bags of time to get some letters to us at team@onelifeleft.com or join our Discord and contact us there. Link below! We're not sponsored by Amazon in any way but might be open to negotiations, Jeff!

    front standing - #622

    In this episode, dearest listeners, we have life being too short to grind in Final Fantasy VII Revelation, Sony taking payments through their controllers, Rockstar peddle collector's editions without games and the war of football games continues! We also cover the recent Game Anglia Direct 2026 and ponder will GTA 6 change everything?!? MARAOKE IS GETTING A REBOOT!!! Well, OK, Ste says "relaunch" during this episode but I've gone for a more "gaming" term which is possibly, technically, incorrect but I'm sticking with it.

    swear finger - #621

    This week we have Ste encouraging bad behaviour, Simon having a wee next to someone famous, WD40 seemingly working and then not, crunch time (again), the GTA 6 soundtrack, God of War "not exciting", Nighthawks "not filth" and a grown adult man lets his child wrack up a huge debt on his company credit card. Yep. Oh, it's video game related, though. You can't chuck a stone in here without hitting an OLL Vanity Project at the moment and we launch one of them LIVE on this very episode!

    rare kind of hero - #620

    Welcome to another episode of the podcast edition of One Life Left, the world's longest running radio show about video games (in the English language)! This week Mark Cerny personally congratulates Simon and Ste might be on a list but never mind that - we have an SSG! We're joined by Luke Caspar Pearson, Associate Professor and Co-Director of Cinematic and Videogame Architecture at the Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL. He's here to talk about his new book "Videogame Architecture: Building Virtual Spaces" - a book so big that it won't even fit on an Ikea Kallax shelf! (Other shelving systems are available). Other topics this week include the recent Nintendo Direct, Tetris vs Trump, Resident Evil movie comedy cuts and a Skyrim X Ikea mashup. Another Ikea mention?! Do we want sponsorship from them?? Six years! Six years I've been writing these! You'd think I'd be better at it by now! A letter is like a creative part of your very soul and we want you to feed them to us!! That's right, feed your souls to us at team@onelifeleft.com or join our Discord and leave some tasty letters for us to consume on there. Link below!
