    Episode 38: F***king Dance Monkey!

    The ‘Cocks are back and ready to talk about video games! well, two video games one of them being Destiny, the most divisive game to come out in some time. Justin and Angry hate it but can’t stop playing it. Handsome Rob loves it but can’t get into Mordor. Angry taalks about his new favorite addiction, Football Manager 2015 and declares Borderland the Pre-Sequel is nothing more than more Borderlands. Handsome Rob died and became Happy Rob after an incriminating photo of him surfaced.

    In the news they talk about the new Domino’s app for Xbox One and wonder what other apps could follow. They go over the PS4 2.0 update. Smash Bros eight player mode. They are pretty excited for the Tell Tale GoT game and want Angry to get some scoops from his sources within Tell Tale Games. Extra Life happened and raised and incredible 5.4 million, but Angry Rob shows you why they call him Angry Rob. He is critical of a former member of the podcast for not finishing the full 24 hours and goes on a looooong diatribe about it.

    They start to talk about GamerGate but they don’t understand it.

    Episode 37: Cumming Clean

    Apparently one former member of the Gamecocks doesn’t think too highly of the work that they have been doing since he left.

    Justin, talks about doing cocaine at a pool party as well as two girls, two night and eight explosive results! Handsome Rob is slowly dying and in a classic Mexican standoff with his boss. But, that ‘Cock doesn’t kiss and tell. Angry Rob almost gets into another fight but he is saved by a black guy.

    They talk more about Destiny and how Angry Rob and Justin finally had fun playing it. Handsome Rob feels badly about how he got through a raid. Angry Rob mentions that all this talk of raids was never cool when he was playing FFIVX and gets laughed at. All of them are very impressed by Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor. They talk about the dynamic systems in the game and how those systems set this game apart from other games. Angry Rob loves Sleeping Dogs and suggests people buy it, you have been forewarned!

    In the news they mention the Tetris movie, the impressive artwork from Uncharted 4. They are also into not playing as Master Chief in Halo 5. They ponder why the XBOX One is such a massive success in China…

Wow!

I am a huge fan of video games and listen to a lot of video game podcasts, this one is different in all the best ways possible!

They are loud, obnoxious but insightful and downright hilarious. This is my video game podcast guilty pleasure. I highly recommend this podcast to people who like pop culture, comics but above all else VIDEO GAMES! In fact I stumbled across this one about a month ago; I have since listened to every show in order. Holy crap is this is a great show!

While they are nowhere close to being politically correct they have a lot of good ideas and thoughts about video games and the industry. They aren't attached to any website either which to me means a lot. If you are looking for a great fun podcast about video games, you should really give this one a listen. I am a subscriber .

Not Bad!

Most of the time, the podcast is pretty decent. I love the discussions that take place, but most of the banter in between is garbage and it feels like wading through loads of crap to get to the good part. They started out pretty awesome and the latest episode (16) was a step up from the previous. It was a throwback to the original that just had Nick and Rob. It was two guys just discussing games and it was a great listen.

Gamecocks podcast

Pretty much the worst thing I've ever heard. I think a couple of them maybe gay.
