The Kotaku Australia Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

Welcome back to the Kotaku Australia Podcast for Episode 35! It was Halloween when Emily and I recorded this episode, and we used it as an opportunity to talk about some of our favourite scary games, including Amnesia and Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem!

Meanwhile, I've been playing Super Mario Bros. Wonder, and I'd like to yell about how good it is for a bit. Thank you for indulging me.

A bit of a sad announcement: though the show concludes with Emily and saying we'll see you next week, it turns out we won't. This is the final episode of The Kotaku Australia Podcast. Our aural experiment has come to an end -- for now. We have plans to create more video and pod content in the future, but for now, we are putting this particular project to bed. Where will be pop up next? Who knows.

This feed will be come an archive of every episode of the show, and we may update it from time to time in the future when we have an interview or review we feel is podcast worthy.

Thank you for listening, for watching, for reviewing, for telling your friends about our show. We're grateful and we've loved making it for you.

See you round, Space Cowboy.

Welcome back to The Kotaku Australia Podcast. It's a show about video games, and this week, Lauren Rouse from Lifehacker Australia returns to screech obsessively with me and Emily about Spider-Man 2 and why we think it's one of the year's best games.

Also: we're on the road for SXSW Sydney! Keep an ear out for fun interviews and more from the show!

Thanks as always for giving our weird little show a listen.

Join Emily and I as we recount some of our favourite campaigns and RPG systems, as well as a few light-lift RPG systems you can try with friends who might be a bit leery of all the rules learning involved.

David also played the first hour of Hello Kitty: Island Adventure and nearly died in a plane crash, which came as a bit of a surprise.
