This time we're tackling all 46 of the alien games we could find.
We love going all out on this format, tracking down all the games, getting them working (which ain't always easy), and creating bespoke graphics to make it into something special. It's a real labour of love. We hope you enjoy the new series.

Hey everyone,
We've been a little quiet about what's coming next. That's because as well as Retry: Demon's Souls we're working on several big projects.
Here's the next one: We Played Every... Alien Game
We've done a couple of these series so far, focusing on Jurassic Park and The Simpsons.
We really love the format, its variety, and just how much weird ephemeral stuff we get to play. We also really get a kick out of going all-in on the pro...

Hello hello, Producers and Posh Slugs!
Just a little reminder that I'll (hopefully) be finishing Uncharted: The Lost Legacy this week.
If you need to catch-up with the first part and see the nonsense that went down then you can check that out here.
I'm very excited to see where this journey takes us!
Set your reminders and I'll see you soon!

Sometimes it feels like nothing has happened at all. We’re sure you feel the same.
When the pandemic reached the UK, we were about to go into production on some brand new projects, but with the covid situation rapidly worsening, we took the decision to stay at home before being told to by the government, and some of these projects never ended up seeing the light of day.
We put Retry: Sekiro on hold, thinking we’d b...

Of course, there's still time to tackle some important problems:

We'll finally be completing our playthrough of The Forgotten City this Thursday evening.

We'll be playing until we finish the game. So join us as we unravel the mystery.

In today's episode of Shield Up, we catch up about Yellowjackets (spoiler free) and profess our love for Christina Ricci and Juliette Lewis, discuss why sometimes you should judge an album by its cover, and finally, in this week's Minging or Fair Play we share our housework hacks.

Hello there you lovely patrons,
Here's a little look at what you can expect in February and beyond.
Demon's Souls Update
We're very excited to announce that we're currently full steam ahead on the edit for Demon's Souls and so far it's been an adventure. Making the decision to go from HD to 4K is less about just flicking a switch that makes everyone look prettier and more about worrying how we're going to efficiently store and edit multiple camer...

This week Krupa and Gav tackle alternative ways to eat pizza and other foods, go over Gav's Welsh chutney recipe, and whether it's okay to drink the forbidden yoghurt water.
And finally, for Minging or Fair Play, we hear one of the most romantic stories to come out of the global pandemic.

Are we using toilet brushes correctly?
Is the future of roads really underground?
And is it minging to watch your own colonoscopy?
Safe to say we get through quite a lot in this week's episode of Shield Up.

Hey Producers,
The Internet has been restored at Gav's flat, and we're looking at a healthy 410Mbps upload speed. Phwoar. Hopefully no more builders cut wires they're not meant to between now and this evening.
But all being well, we'll see you tonight for the first part of our investigation in Ancient Rome. We know absolutely nothing about the game, so join us for plenty of speculation and deduction.
UPDATE
Unfortunately we're having to cancel today's stream. The Internet has been taken out at Gav's flat probably due to some building works going on.
Hopefully it'll be rectified in time for the stream tomorrow evening, but right now we have no idea.
Sorry for the short-notice cancellation. We were looking forward to snooping around Ancient Rome with you.

Here's a little look ahead to what you can expect in January next year.
Firstly, we're going to take a little break to recharge before we come back next month and break ground on editing Retry: Demon's Souls.
It was one of the most fun shoots we've ever had, because we gave ourselves the time to really make the most of it, and we had the best set-up we've ever had for filming one of these series. But it'll take time to edit and prepare in a way that we'r...

And yeah, we still have time to squeeze in a couple of Minging or Fair Plays to round out the year.

Will we be smoking European cigarettes? Probably not.
Will we be doing a Die Hard drinking game? Very possibly.
