There might be too many cooks in this show, but we do our best to talk about Advanced Warfare, Ubisoft's (now reversed) decision to remove games from Steam, and more.

All good things come to an end, including this podcast. A brief farewell from your two hosts.

It turns out we actually love Toad, trucking down Kentucky Route Zero, reading Amazon reviews about Wetrix, and saying goodbye to 2014.

Before we start buying holiday gifts on Amazon, we huddle up to discuss Captain Toad and Dragon Age and answer a whole bunch of your questions.

We survived this year's Game of the Year deliberations, but the show must go on, and the week's news must be talked about.

With Alex gone, the Internet's biggest expert on Sonic the Hedgehog and Dynasty Warriors joins me to discuss the current state of games media.

We're still trying to understand the insanity of Bayonetta 2, but bear with us. Maybe discussions about Dragon Age, WWE 2K15, and the week's news can help us out.

A shorter-than-usual show because my replacement TV showed up early, but we take your questions about the first games we ever reviewed, the prospect of an upgraded Xbox One, and more.

It's Call of Duty day, everybody! We talk about Killer Queen, Sunset Overdrive, and answer a bunch of your questions.

We discuss the legal merits of purchasing a shady copy of Death Spa on YouTube, wonder about Sunset Overdrive's humor, and talk through the week's lengthy bits of news.

With Giant Bomb's Extra Life marathons coming to an end, Cara Ellison joins us from Japan to kick off a week that probably won't feature as many 24-hour marathons.

My initial impressions of Shinji Mikami's latest, the advantages of burner phones, and answers to burning questions like "tacos or nachos?"

Alex makes NBA 2K15 sound like a nightmarish land barely full of basketball, I've become quite fond of plant collecting in Middle-Earth, and we run down the week's news.

The designer of Sentris joins us, as we discuss the risks and rewards of early access, show our love for Shadow(s) of Mordor, and ask the Internet to develop a recipe for positivity gravity.

Many nights of sleep were sacrificed to bring you these Alien: Isolation impressions. Alex talks about Shadow of Mordor, I guess.

We recruit Polygon's resident Lord of the Rings overlord to talk all things Tolkien, gush over D4, and generate Destiny conspiracy theories.

Alex shares what he's played of Civilization: Beyond Earth, I lament how few people remember Rockstar's skateboarding game, and we talk through the week's news.

Alex wrestles with his feelings about Swery's new game, Patrick tells poop stories about Danganronpa 2, and we answer your questions.

We try to wrestle with being interested in the next Final Fantasy, speculate about Swery's new game, and talk through the rest of this week's TGS news.

Alex discloses his new obsession with Desert Golfing, we consider the future of Destiny and Minecraft, and spend a while answering your questions.

We try to wrap our heads around Destiny, NHL 15, and Hack 'n Slash before spoiling The Walking Dead's second season. Don't worry, there's a big heads up.

It's been a hell of a week. Can you help us, Diablo III and Gods Will Be Watching?

If you're looking for long tangents on Super Mario 64 and Richard Attenborough, you've come to the right place.

After a trying week in the video game industry, we try to keep our heads up by digging into the new Madden, putting Divinity: Original Sin to rest, and sorting through the week's news.

With Alex out, we indulgently geek out over P.T. and the Silent Hill series, before questioning the ethics of cheating in games. You don't need a walkthrough for this show!

We apologize in advance for the terrible puns in today's show. It's Germany's fault.

We curse our Google overlords, mull Diablo III on PS4, and wonder what the hell the head of Crytek is thinking right now.

We contemplate whether Twitch has gone and ruined everything this week. Oh, and beer.

Alex returns to The Last of Us, while I wonder if my recent exploits in Divinity might qualify as cheating.

We reminisce about the glory days of b-movies before a lengthy discussion of Crypt of the NecroDancer, EA Access, and more.

While I try to figure out what's up with Kim Kardashian: Hollywood, Alex can't stop thinking about Mad Max. Seems fair.

Alex becomes concerned about Walking Dead's second season, but not before he disappears from the show for nearly 30 minutes. Don't worry, I've got this.

Alex dives into the Destiny beta and comes out feeling pretty mixed, while I've fallen in love neverending burning hellscapes, aka Divinity: Original Sin.

We mull Snowpiercer and The Leftovers before talking about Shovel Knight, Watch Dogs, and the ethics of selling early access games at retail.

We wonder about the future of dogs in Valiant Hearts, admire the jumping of Shovel Knight, and try to wrap up a show before a doctor appointment.

Come for the talk about Shovel Knight, Mario Kart, and Watch Dogs, stay for the descent into madness over Sonic the Hedgehog and Tetsuya Nomura.

E3 2014 has come and gone. The world has changed. It's all about dogs now. You know, dogs, the Destiny alpha, concerns about No Man's Sky, and more.

The Wolf is having Internet problems, but that's not gonna stop me from pontificating about E3 for nearly an hour.

Besides waxing nostalgically about being away from the Internet for a week, we cover Kirby: Triple Deluxe, The Wolf Among Us, and the waves of news that hit in the last few days.

Before breaking for the weekend, Alex reveals how shockingly good the new Wolfenstein, we puzzle over Transistor's early hours, and thumb through the week's news.

Gaming podcasts don't get upset at transit systems enough. We're here to fix that, and maybe talk about YouTube possibly buying Twitch, and other news from the last few days.

Surprise! It's a Thursday show because I'm headed to New York for the weekend. Alex can finally tell us how Mario Kart the new Mario Kart is. Warning: some Walking Dead season one spoilers.
