It’s been a while…

After a three month break, mostly caused by a slow lethargic video games industry sucking the very life out of us (there isn’t much to talk about over the dry summer. Literally, we’re thinking of one game we want to recap) we’re pleased to announce State of Gameplay will be returning for a brand new season. We’re bringing you a new format, added presenters and a new schedule of releases. We’ve been away and had a think about what we’ve done and where we are going.
So coming, this October.
STATE OF GAMEPLAY, SEASON 2!

Episode 16 – E3 and The UK Games Expo

An E3 and UK Games Expo special, and announcing some competitions upcoming thanks to Upper Deck and Cubicle 7. Once again sorry for a lack of podcast for the last two weeks, circumstances in both of our personal lives made it impossible to record, but WE’RE BACK BABY!

Lack of updates

Sorry everyone for a lack of updates and podcasts. Both myself and Marko have had family issues to deal with in the last few weeks, meaning that neither of us have been able to do any podcasting. We’ll be at the UK Games Expo next weekend, so expect a mammoth podcast THIS SUNDAY… We’ll be featuring all the best of the UK Games Expo, as well as the E3 2009 coverage and our previously announced Episode 16 discussion that never was… It might be a long one! But we’re back baby!

Episode 15 – Diesel vs Diesel

A short show this week, due to our abject mid-week laziness in not posting a topic. We cover some of the news of the week, and the forever promised Diesel vs Diesel feature. Wheelman vs Chronicles of Riddick : Assault on Dark Athena.

Episode 14 – Star Trek Special

Its our Star Trek special. We cover the news of the video gaming week, including the demise of 3D Realms, and then we go straight into arguably the biggest geek film of 2009, JJ Abram’s Star Trek reboot. Does it boldly go into new territory, or is it a bit of a Gorn?

Episode 12 – 2009 games we look forward to

The main discussion this week involves the games to come in 2009, talking about the games we are looking forward to. No suprises which game seems to come out on top considering the Children of the 1980’s that we are. We also talk about the TV shows that you should take a look at whilst you are having a break from your gaming, and cover the latest news in video gaming, including the next video game movie to suffer a delay in production, and a release date for Champions Online.
