Episode 105: 20 Years of Halo 2

Saturday, November 23, 2024 • Duration 01:51:37

Don't feel old, mate. We're all in this together, ageing like fine wine. Has Halo 2 done the same, or is it old and embarassing like your dad?

We talk through everything - gameplay, story, marketing, multiplayer, the 2014 remaster and much, much more.

Episode 104: SPOOKTOBERFEST '24 - Silent Hill 2

Sunday, October 27, 2024 • Duration 02:10:52

Yeah, not the remake. We both bought the terribly-optimised PC version and... nah. Unplayable.

But hey, the original Silent Hill 2 is a masterpiece and one of the greatest horror games, if not the greatest, ever made. We have an epic chat about this seminal, groundbreaking game that is just as unsettling now as it was in 2001.

Trigger warning: this podcast contains discussions about sexual assault, mental illness, terminal illness, euthanasia, suicide and more dark topics that you probably already know are in the game. Just letting you know now - this pod gets pretty heavy at times.

Rate/review/sub, tell your friends, say hi to us on Twitter @winnerisyoupod.

Episode 95: SNES/Mega Drive Roulette #1 (Battletoads in Battlemaniacs, Claymates, Comix Zone, Kirby's Dream Land 3, Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja Master, Target Earth)

Wednesday, July 10, 2024 • Duration 01:45:09

A few episodes ago we late fate decide six games we were going to play, all from the SNES and Mega Drive libraries available on Nintendo Switch Online. Those games were:

Battletoads in Battlemaniacs
Claymates
Comix Zone
Kirby's Dream Land 3
Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja Master
Target Earth

It's safe to say we didn't love most of these, but if you know one thing about this podcast, it's that things generally get more entertaining the angrier we get!

Episode 5: Quick-Fire Top 5s #1 - Licensed Games, Gaming Guns, Co-Op Games

Sunday, February 14, 2021 • Duration 01:50:47

Ok, so we didn't end up being that quick in the end! Either way, as a pallet cleanser before our next big deep dive coming in episode 6, we're breaking things up with the first of a series of top 5 list episodes.

First on the ranking schedule we're talking about our top 5 greatest licensed games, with some real incertitude over what a licensed game actually is - sorry Tony Hawk and every wrestling game ever. We're going more traditional; ranging from Batman and Spider-Man to Lord of the Rings and South Park.

For the second list of the episode we have some gruesome gassing about gaming's top 5 greatest guns. Shotguns, pistols, rocket launchers, big f'n guns - they're all here!

Finally, list number three embodies the spirit of both friendship and arguments in our ranking of the top 5 greatest co-op games. Fans of Portal 2, Gears of War and even Luigi's Mansion 3 will be well served here!

Episode 4: The Medium

Sunday, February 7, 2021 • Duration 02:06:57

A brand new game (pretty much) on our game club! This episode we're taking you from the material world to the spirit world and back again (through some mirrors or something) with the new Xbox Series S/X exclusive title The Medium, from the people behind Layers of Fear.

This ghostly walking sim/puzzler/horror game/Resident Silent Evil Hill homage has been getting rave reviews in the gaming press, but it's also been the subject of criticism for its poor performance and general doesn't-feel-all-that-next-gen..ery.

It evokes strong memories of the horror games of yesteryear, so does that work in its favour or make it feel old and unoriginal? Find out as we do a deep ol' dive into the game from start to finish with a big smattering of opinion along the way!

Episode 3: Bioshock

Monday, January 25, 2021 • Duration 01:59:22

We begin the game club proper with our first deep dive (pun remorselessly intended) episode, and we're starting with a real doozy. Bioshock was a seminal moment in video game storytelling and world design, and remains one of the jewels in the crown of its generation. We discuss the game's merits both historically and in 2021, and then take you through the game from start to finish - talking through each area, the story beats and major setpieces, and our opinions on how the game unfolds. If you're a fan of everything Rapture, would you kindly take a listen? A man listens, a slave... doesn't listen.

Episode 2: The Top 10 Games of the Last Generation pt.2

Sunday, January 10, 2021 • Duration 02:09:58

We're back to complete our list by ranking the final 10 games as decided in part one. Strap yourselves in for the ride as we rank Resident Evil 2, The Witcher 3, Red Dead Redemption 2, The Last of Us 2, Yakuza 0, Apex Legends, Overwatch, God of War, Bloodborne and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild into a definitive order (definitive for us, anyway). There's plenty of discussion about each game and a lot of agonising and bargaining going on over our personal favourites before we arrive at the final 10. Enjoy!

Episode 1: The Top 10 Games of the Last Generation pt.1

Sunday, January 3, 2021 • Duration 01:32:10

Welcome to the rebirth of A Winner Is You! Your old hosts Alex Aldridge and David Smillie - also formerly of Gamertron and The Not Red E Podcast - have dredged up the old show and jazzed up the format to create a brand new game club podcast. We'll be covering entire games one episode at a time in future, but we'll also be doing plenty of ranking list shows too, so we're starting off by waving goodbye to the PS4 and Xbox One generation with our top 10. Part 1 features all our honourable mentions and the formulation of our final 10 games, which we will rank in order in Part 2.
