Gamers Without Borders

Hello, Happy New Year and best of all Gamers Without Borders is back! Nick discusses his thoughts and feelings about his choice for Game of the Year 2021, Life is Strange: True Colors   If you want ever more discussions about Life is Strange involving Nick and some friends of the podcast, check out these episodes of two great podcasts:   Almost Better Than Silence Episode 333 (Life is Strange 2 Spoilercast) https://open.spotify.com/episode/33KhB7jdG6SUl4EAWkZquW?si=134e57e45cf544c0   Behind the Line Radio (Enthusiacs) Episode 51 (Discussion about Life is Strange in general) https://open.spotify.com/episode/2BNvAvgmipADyaZaBLTI2u?si=1TorBhc2Tnyg-vP2VEA2nQ   Thanks, have a great 2022 and I hope to be back with GWB again soon!   Nick (@AnotherGmgBlog)    

Hello again, It's been a while hasn't it? Well I decided it was finally time, delay after delay, hiatus after hiatus. I wanted to come back, I've felt re-invigorated about gaming for the first time in ages, and I wanted to actually talk about!   Just a short solo episode for now, talking about my experiences with the Nintendo Switch OLED Model.   This really feels like the proper comeback, I called it Episode 50 for a reason because it's a true 'canon' episode.   I'm still deciding exactly what the future of the show is going to look like, but I have some projects in mind that will be great fun.   It's time I became a podcaster again   Lets not say, until next time, instead, see you soon!   Nick (@AnotherGmgBlog) 

Nick finally returns after an unplanned break of 2 years! This is still early days but I hope to get back into the podcasting world soon.   Until then, stay safe everyone

On this week's GWB Podcast: After an incredibly long hiatus, Nick and Greg are finally back! See? We're still here!

Today is a special day, the 1st birthday of the Gamers Without Borders podcast. In honour of that, here's something a bit special, behold the very first 'episode' me and Brad ever recorded, before this was even called Gamers Without Borders! (Fun fact: Brad and I had known each other for about 3 hours before we recorded this) There's no synopsis or show notes for this episode as no formal plan exists for this episode, but this is something different, so I hope you'll forgive the change in format I hope you all enjoy listening to how bad we used to sound! Until next time!  P.S. *A NOTE ON AUDIO QUALITY* Yes I know this episode sounds utterly terrible but there's two reasons for that. Firstly the raw audio was poor quality because Brad and I had no idea what we were doing at the time. I tried my best to improve it during editing. Basically I had a choice between making us sound like robots or ear destroying static noise, I picked the lesser of two evils. Second, I chose not to make this sound good as an artistic choice to prove how far we've come in a year.

On this week's GWB Podcast: Nick is once again joined by very frequent guest Judge Greg. They have a very long chat about what they’ve been up to including the fact Nick has got himself a New 3DS.
