98: There Were No Ramekins

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening? Of course not. You don't listen to the podcast so why would some random jangling entertain you, eh? But do listen, because it's only bloody Christmas again! In Episode 98, deKay and Kendrick chat about some The Game Awards stuff, Half Life 3 (or not), and games!

97: I'm Feeling A Bit Squiffy

G'morrow beautiful friends! Here to waft away the damp, darkened skies of the season (or maybe make them damper and darker), it's Episode 97 of the ugvm Podcast. The podcast you love to subscribe to but hit skip when it comes up on the playlist. Yeah, we know. It's OK. We don't get paid either way. In this episode, deKay, Kendrick and Toby "entertain" you with fun game related news and chat, which this time round includes speculation on Valve's new hardware triple combo, a show report from the Valorant Champions event in that there Paris (France, not Texas), and one of the team became A Magnificent Man in a Flying Machine. Oh, and Kendrick has bought a new VR headset. Yes, Hell has finally frozen over. Not only that! We have gaaaaaaaaames!

Magic Beans

What is this word "late" which you are saying? I do not recognise it and I do not understand it and I do not wish to believe it exists! Episode 96 cannot be late, for it was never scheduled. Sir, you embarrass yourself. Arguments about timetabling aside, we would like to invite you to enjoy this most recent (at time of typing) episode of your favourite podcast! deKay, Kendrick and Orrah huddled round a warm bucket of cocoa and discussed, to varying lengths, the important news of our time - including Nintendo's Mario Direct, more unfortunate developers losing their jobs because Money, Microsoft increasing the price of Game Pass (again, because Money) and Starbreeze getting several years into developing an eagerly anticipated Dungeons & Dragons game before pulling the plug because, well, Money. Thankfully, there's some Good Stuff too, like chat about these games.

95: Bother Me Anatomically

Unforeseen circumstances, and definitely not Podcast Apathy, resulted in just deKay and Kendrick bringing you this episode, but don't worry! As a bonus to make up for the cast shortfall, Episode 95 is slightly shorter, so you've less to endure! Rejoice. This time around, your heroes discuss the general meh-ness of recent gaming news, the Switch 2 having no games, a new Lego Batman (and Batman in general), and Ys X Proud Nordics. With, naturally, many deviations and diversions.

94: Secrete Yellow Ooze From Their Knees

Another period of time has passed, bringing with it news of both digital wonders and corporate woes! Join us as the ugvm podcast team unpacks the latest in gaming, from unexpected purchases to industry shake-ups. That was a terrible pair of inaccurate sentences brought to you by an AI analysis of our podcast and we're very sorry. In this episode, deKay, Toby, and Orrah are on hand to guide you through a fresh batch of discussions. We talk about the news that Everybody Is Fired At Microsoft, have a riveting and detailed Switch battery replacement chat, and someone pops their Battle Pass cherry. Plus, Subnautica 2 Drama, deKay Has A Switch 2, and these games!

93: A Playdate In The Back Room of Ann Summers

Blood is the unintentional theme of this episode, not just in the titles and contents of the games but also in that it'll make your ears bleed. Maybe? Frankly, I wouldn't risk it. All that mess for no real benefit, and we wouldn't want a lawsuit on our hands anyway. However, should you decide to listen against our strong advice not to, you will find that deKay, Toby, Kendrick and (Fresh Blood) Harry have prepared some tasty meats to sate you. Discussion about the coming Season 2 of Playdate games, rumours about the new PlayStation handheld console (and, relatedly, the PS6), Ys/Trails in the Sky crossover remake shenanigans, and the death of PS+ Stars, the rewards scheme you've never heard of until just now. Plus, additional snacks in the form of these games.

92: You Do Realise You Can Take The Discs Out

Look, March was a bad month, OK? We didn't do an episode and we know that made you all sad but it can't be helped. What's done is done. Water under the bridge. A delicious chocolate river slurped up by a fat German child while a man in a silly suit watches in glee. We just can't do anything about it. Except press on with another episode and some lickable wallpaper. In Episode 92 dem mans deKay, Orrah and the unlikely-y named "Kendrick" have Switch 2 Real Actual Facts to tell you about, the surprise everyone expected release of Oblivion: We Made It Pretty Edition, a new Star Wars game, and one of us has bought a new console. Who and what? You have to listen to find out! While you're listening, you should also hear words about these games and more!

91: Slippers Go Under Defeat

It's time for Episode 91, so get yourself some warm cocoa, wrap yourself in a woolly slanket and sit by the fireplace to listen to the wireless. Then realise that the Temu slanket you bought isn't made of actual wool, is melting, and you've just made yourself a hot plastic coffin. Ah well. In this most episodey of episodes, deKay, Toby and Kendrick chat about The Recertification of Balatro (one of Mariah Carey's lesser known albums), Netease oozing staff, Warner Brothers, er, also oozing staff, and putting David Cage in a box. But that isn't all! We tell YOU, the listener, about games we have been playing! These games!
