In last week's podcast notes, I mentioned that we had been tossing around the idea of switching from a solely TA focussed podcast to a TGN podcast, where we can discuss and debate all of the latest news and games from both Xbox and PlayStation. Thankfully, the feedback was positive, and so this week, we'd like to introduce you to the very first episode of the TGN podcast!   Joining me on this week's show are Ollie and Sam, as we share out thoughts on the newly released Assassin's Creed Odyssey and discuss what could be next for Ubisoft's long-running franchise, discuss the leaked Harry Potter RPG footage, marvel at the latest Red Dead Redemption 2 gameplay trailer, and look at what's now available for free in October's Games with Gold and PS Plus offerings.

In the last TA Playlist game of 2017, Sam, Mark, Kevin and a great number of community members traversed the deserts of Egypt in search of vengeance, allies, and countless map icons in Assassin's Creed Origins. Sam takes the hosting duties for his first time as our resident Creed historian and thus he comes down most favorably on the game. Kevin quite enjoyed it too and shares his intriguing fan theories as to what comes next for Bayek and Aya. Mark meanwhile calls this the "final nail" in his dedication to playing the series on release every time. With your forum chatter to supplement the chat, we had another great month and a fitting conclusion to TA Playlist's first calendar year.

Happy New Year and welcome to episode 101 of the TrueAchievements podcast. Our first show of 2018 is a little shorter than usual due to the lack of news and new releases this week, but for once we've all been playing lots of games over the holiday break.  On this show, we give you the chance to win an Xbox One code from our giveaway sack (just leave us a comment below if you want to enter), Rich bemoans the death of the Kinect adapter, Jack talks about his time with Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, I hit 300,000 Gamerscore and we update you on our 12 Days of Christmas challenge progress.

After taking last week off due to the late posting of episode 97, Jack being off last Friday and Rich being up to his eyeballs in code, we're back for episode 98 of the TrueAchievements podcast, where this week we've been busy unlocking achievements (planning in Jack's case) for the ongoing 12 Days of Christmas challenge. On this show, we give you the chance to win an Xbox One download code for SOMA, we talk about the random selection of games that Rich and I have been using to make progress through the early stages of the 12 days of Christmas challenge, why I caved in and bought The Walking Dead Collection - The Telltale Series, why Jack has finally put down Clicker Heroes (we'll see for how long), Rich returns to Titanfall 2 and we debate which games would be suitable to play on the toilet.

his past month was massive according to the stats page in the TA Playlist Hub. Of course, many of those being tracked on site were just playing the latest Games with Gold freebie, but judging by our excellent month of community forum chatter, it's safe to call The Turing Test a riveting choice for the event. Join Kevin, Sam, and Mark (I'm never sure if I should write in third person here) as they wrap up another engaging month with the TA Playlist faithful.  In this episode, we discuss the game's moral dilemma, weigh its merits as an artificial intelligence thinkpiece and argue whether this machine does or does not have a soul. With great commentary from the community, it's obvious by the end that Turing is nothing if not thought-provoking. As the topic of AI is a very special hobby horse of mine personally, I wanted to also call your attention to some extracurricular media on the topic. Artificial intelligence, if it were to ever reach superintelligent levels (far outpacing human capacity) would change the world forever, and not necessarily in a good way. There are a lot of think tanks and scientists working to resolve this issue before it can really become one because by then it may be too late.  The subject isn't entirely pessimistic though, as some, like Ray Kurzweil, believe AI will usher in a new dawn of human progress. Below you can find a few crucial pieces of media if you're interested to learn more. TA Playlist is a conversation above all else. This month was immensely rewarding to have this conversation with all of you who participated. Let's keep the conversation going.

Welcome to episode 94 of the TrueAchievements podcast, where this week we were delighted to be joined by the podcasting legend, the man with the million, Rand al Thor 19, who kindly took some time out to discuss the best of the past week's Xbox related news, more AAA games than I can fit in the story title, and the Xbox One X. On this show, we give you the chance to win an Xbox One code for AER - Memories of Old, Rich talks about his time with the Xbox One X and our review, I explain why Assassin's Creed Origins is one of my favourite games in the series and what's different about Call of Duty: WWII's campaign and Rand tells us about Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus and convinces Rich to buy it straight after the podcast ended. We also give you our thoughts on this week's ID@Xbox streams, discuss this week's biggest news announcements, take a look at what we've been playing over the past seven days, look at the games coming our way next week and answer your questions, including our question of the week.  Links: Xbox One X Review Alpha Ring Xbox Insiders Can Now Remove 0 Gamerscore Games from Their Profiles Xbox Game Gifting Available To Insiders [UPDATE] Gameloft Discontinues Windows Phone Support for Two Titles November's Xbox Game Pass Additions: Metal Gear Solid V, Resident Evil and More Trackmania Turbo and NiGHTS into dreams...

With the end of another month, we say farewell to our latest TA Playlist game. All three co-hosts enjoy the game in different ways, though it's Will who really adores it and isn't shy about saying so. Throughout the episode, we analyze the main characters, dissect the writing and dialogue, question some plot holes, and praise the game's attempts to deal with subjects few other games go near. Along the way, we share what amounts to the most community feedback of any episode so far because the discussions this month were truly fascinating. 

Welcome to episode 72 of the covfefe TrueAchievements podcast. Monday was a bank holiday, so it's been another short week, but we've still got plenty to talk about thanks to the games we've been streaming on Mixer, the new community Alphabet Challenge, and a few big news announcements. On this week's show, we give you the chance to win a download code for Punch Club, despair at the news of another game delay, rejoice at the fixing of previously unobtainable achievements, and speculate about what we might see at this year's E3. We also give you our thoughts on the past week's ID@Xbox streams, discuss this week's big news announcements, take a look at what we've been playing over the past seven days and look at the games coming our way next week.

Mark, Kevin, and Will are back with May 2017's TA Playlist game, the violent and brooding Darksiders. Will and Mark come down pretty hard on the game, but Kevin likes it a bit more. The community weighs in too, mostly sharing the sentiment that Vigil Games' 2010 debut is neither awful nor excellent. We hack and slash our way through all aspects of the game before wrapping it up with a preview of June's Playlist offering.

Welcome to episode 71 of the TrueAchievements podcast. With Rich out of the office, this week's show sees the long awaited return of Ash who is now available again after he stopped playing The Division during every waking hour. We were also joined by Will who is one-third of the TA Playlist podcast and a regular contributor to our first impressions videos. On this week's show, we give you the chance to win a download code for Death Squared, discuss the potential benefits of Xbox Game Pass, shed a tiny tear over the delay of Red Dead Redemption 2, get excited about the recent Far Cry 5 trailers and key art, and check out June's Games with Gold titles. We also give you our thoughts on the past week's ID@Xbox streams, discuss this week's big news announcements, take a look at what we've been playing over the past seven days, look at the games coming our way next week, and answer your questions, including our question of the week.

Our inaugural month of TA Playlist is coming to a close, and that means our debut episode of the TA Playlist Podcast is here. Will, Kevin, and I got together recently to fully unravel the enigma of Remedy's 2010 thriller, Alan Wake. In this debut episode, we consider some early impressions of the game from both ourselves and the community and weigh the merits of its TV series presentation. Later, Will unloads on Alan as a character and Kevin doesn't exactly defend our titular novelist either. By the end, we're all still scratching our heads over the ending before we wrap it up with some achievement talk and a look ahead to May's game, Darksiders.

TA means a lot of things to a lot of different people. Some come here simply to track their stats and see how they place in the world. Others come here as achievement hunters and everything we have to offer each other in the form of guides. Regardless of how you got here, many of you have stayed for the community. That's important and it’s something we want to foster. The Community and Events Team runs tons of events yearly to bring the community together and we wanted to take those same philosophies and mix it with the Newshounds and YouTube Teams to bring a fresh perspective and a new recurring feature. The result is TA Playlist.

Welcome to episode 62 of the TrueAchievements podcast! Unfortunately, Rich was away at the time of recording, so Jack and I stepped up our game with recording and hosting duties and invited the now semi-regular host, Mark, to come on and talk about this week's big stories and new game releases. On this week's show, we discuss the first month of TA Playlist, spending money on Clicker Heroes(guilty as charged), and Mark shares his early thoughts on Mass Effect: Andromeda, we give you the chance to win a download code for Vertical Drop Heroes HD and talk about this week's ID@Xbox releases.
