Top Chat

Hey everyone, in this episode of TC, the guys are choosing 5 games each that they would gladly play forever should the worst/best thing ever happen to them - they get marooned on a desert island. For an extra twist, only ONE of these games is playable online. In other news, Joe gets back on the Metacritic critiquing, and Matt kind of does nothing. He is, however, retrospectively annoyed by at least 2 of his choices. Thanks very much for listening, please share with your friends!

Hey everyone, in this episode of Top Chat, the chaps are discussing E3 2019, the highs, the lows, and the mehs (lots of the latter to follow). They take a look back at the predictions made in episodes 17 and 18 and see if they actually got anything right. Aside from this, Matt has just returned from Florence, Joe has just returned from Dubrovnik, and the inaugural TC getaway to Download Festival also took place over the weekend just gone, so the lads give a quick review of their time there too. Lots to take in! Thanks very much for listening and please share with your friends.

Hello everyone, in this episode of Top Chat, it's Part 2 of a two part special where the chaps take turns talking about some E3 predictions for this years' event.

Top Chat is changing a little bit going forward, and if you want to know how, check out last week's episode for more detail. As always, please share with your friends, your mum, and your nan too. Thanks very much for listening!

Hello everyone, in this episode of Top Chat, it's Part 1 of a two part special where the chaps take turns talking about some E3 predictions for this years' event. Episode 17 is Matt's week, because he knows less so after doing all the intro stuff, his one wouldn't take too long. This week, you'll hear about changes we're making to the formula of the show, as well as some teases about upcoming content on our YouTube channel. Fret not, it's still our usual half-baked gaming knowledge mixed with terrible puns and jokes, though. As always, thanks very much for listening, and please share with your friends!

Hello everyone, welcome to the first in what will hopefully be a long, exciting series of Top Chat Interviews. Our pilot episode features Matt talking to the brilliantly entertaining Fizhy, known for his YouTube content on Assassin's Creed, Red Dead Redemption and more. The chaps talk about Fizhy's career so far, their opinions on Assassin's Creed and where they think the series should head next. Also, Fizhy's dog makes a guest appearance. Woof woof. Thanks very much for listening, please share with your friends. Thank you especially to Fizhy for being a great guest and helping us kick start this series.

Hey everyone, in this week's episode of Top Chat, Matt once again took to Reddit for some opinions on the most annoying aspects of video games, as well as our hosts throwing in a few of their own. It's a surprisingly therapeutic episode with lots of satisfying noises of agreement. As well as the main subject for this week, the guys chat about Days Gone being a somewhat disappointment, Joe spends more money on games he doesn't need, and Matt does possibly the worst intro the podcast has seen so far. As always, thanks for listening and please share with your friends!

Hey everyone, in this week's episode of Top Chat we have our second special guest on the show; it's long-time listener, friend of the show and regular segment, Sebby from the Webby (who also happens to be Joe's younger brother). Joe and Seb sat to discuss one of their favourite developers, Bethesda, and have a look at the studios' games through past, present and future. Fear not, Matt still makes an appearance to do the news with Joe at the start of the podcast. There wasn't much in the news this week so the two went off on a fair few tangents, as per usual. Thank you as always for listening, and please share with your friends!

Hey everyone, in this week's episode of Top Chat, the guys discuss the importance of video game music adding to the games they're in and mention a few of their favourite examples of this.

Elsewhere, there's some chat on the Playstation 5 (even though it's not called that yet) and the new disc-less Xbox One. Thanks as always for listening, share the podcast with your friends!

Hey everyone, in this week's Top Chat, the guys discuss the 'controversy' surrounding Sekiro Shadows Die Twice having an Easy mode is actually controversial or not, by exploring video game difficulty as a whole and whether or not it is relevant in modern gaming. Along with this, Joe talks about how good he is at FIFA, Matt talks about how bad he is at FIFA, and there's a controversial corner that both of the chaps agree on. So maybe that isn't controversial either. As always, thanks for listening, and share with your friends.

Hey everyone, in this week's episode of Top Chat, the lads take a somewhat breather and decide not to have a topic as such, and rather ramble on about what they've been playing.

Why? Listen and you'll find out for yourself. Thanks as always for listening, share with your friends and stay tuned for next week's episode.

Also, there's some predictions on Pokemon's 2019 game (which were immediately invalidated because the Pokemon Direct happened roughly 12 hours after recording) as well as a trip down Memory Card lane regarding PS2 classic movie tie-ins.

Hey everyone, today is a Top Chat first as we have our first ever guest on the show! Aaron Murphy has been a friend of Matt and Joe's for many years and he's a battle royale aficionado. Seen as though Apex Legends has just dropped, it seemed like the perfect time to get Aaron on the show. You can find him on Twitch on @bot_murphy Aside from our Chat about BR's, Joe has finally finished Horizon and Matt almost breaks his microphone when Joe drops a Controversial Corner that is, quite literally, an incorrect opinion. Thanks as always for listening, and please share with your friends.

Hey everyone, in this week's Top Chat, Matt and Joe talk about some either confirmed or heavily rumoured exclusive games coming out for the Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PS4 (or maybe next-gen consoles).

Enjoy. Share with your friends, and thanks as always for listening.
