Mailbag

Matthew talks about the first few hours of Star Wars Outlaws, Samuel explains what he ate at Gamescom 2024, and both of us answer questions from the listeners.

From great Metroidvanias to an impromptu Cheese Draft, it’s time for another mailbag episode.

We each try and guess five mystery games based on snippets from their reviews in ’00s games magazines. Feel free to play along!

What we’ve been playing lately, including Dragon’s Dogma 2, Helldivers 2, Rise of the Ronin, Stellar Blade and some old Command & Conquer nonsense.

After some dense episodes, allow us this brief respite to answer a slew of listener questions.

After several solid episodes in a row, The Back Page crashes down to Earth. But you do get to hear about the famous person Matthew went to school with…

A fun holiday special to see out the year – featuring special guests, our favourite Christmas-themed games and the Back Page alternative GOTY awards.

The latest on what we’ve been playing, featuring Alan Wake 2, Chants of Sennaar, Super Mario Wonder and more.

We’ve firmly entered silly season, and Matthew has finished Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty. Does it change his take on the CD Projekt RED FPS/RPG?

Matthew has played 10 hours of Sea of Stars, so we discuss that, the Doom mod My House, Armored Core 6, Paranormasight and Dredge.
