Before you ask - no, this is not an Xbox (Hi, Microsoft! Thought you might appreciate us playing along with your latest PR campaign! Send any payments/Xbox goodies to us via the usual email, OK? Ta!)

This week, dearest of listeners, we have Overcooked! revelations, Xbox do marketing (see above), Nintendo patrol the high seas for pirates (ah harr!), game "awards" and starter packs? Starter packs!! Yes please!

Meanwhile, why on earth is Simon's wife sending photos to Ste?!? Listen to find out!!

The Maraoke Xmas Party (Friday 13th December at Loading Bar, Stoke Newington High St) tickets are available NOW from here: https://maraoke.com/xmas2024

This week we ask the BIG questions: Who is following us on Bluesky? What is a turnip driver? Is a disk drive a dongle?? We also discover AI's weakness, Netflix kill off their interactive shows, the Borderlands movie never happened, Ste shoots all the time in everyday life, Simon has "beef" with "the man" and what exactly is all this UKIE shenanigans, anyway?!

We also talk about upcoming appearances at GaMaYo (Thursday 21st November in Wakefield) and the Maraoke Xmas Party (Friday 13th December)!

WARNING: This show contains a brief mention of private body parts that Ste probably still hasn't heard! Shocking! It's OK, though, coz it's related to something glow-in-the-dark that was bought in Blackpool! Oo-er!

<Waits for the request to do some more editing of the show...>

ANYWAY! SSG klaxon ahoy! This week we are joined by Paul Monaghan who recently interviewed Simon as part of his amazing work collecting games magazine journos and telling their stories whilst not sharing any gossip! From Googling how to spell his name correctly I also suspect he's from the same part of the world as I am so that makes him even more of a top chap, obviously!

Meanwhile, we also have Nintendo inventing music, Charlesbot pretending he needs more practice at reading the news and Nvidia being bigger than anything! Ste and Simon also go on a world tour to hunt down dodgy/knock-off/pirated videogames for you, dear listener! (Does that make the holidays OLL expenses...?)

If you're reading this nonsense and it's not yet Friday 8th November, we have a FREE Maraoke event at Loading in Stoke Newington. On Friday 8th November. Get your tickets HERE!

How much plastic tat do you own? Have you met a Disney princess? Do you know what happened at Edge?? Tell us everything at [email protected]. Or join our Discord and spread lots of gossip there. Link below!

Isn't it horrible when someone leaves you out of something? Well, dear listeners, this week we discover how a veteran Edge writer has been left out of a new periodical written by veteran Edge writers!!! The injustice!! We also have Charlesbot evolving into something that swears and says "aaah" a lot, the "console arms race" has levelled out and it's Tetris aaaaaaall the way down. Tetris! Plus much more...

Meanwhile we have another Maraoke event coming up and this time it's FREE! Friday 8th November at Loading in Stoke Newington. Get your tickets HERE!

Like Pac-Man gobbling up those questionable pills, we devour your letters and need MORE OF THEM!!! Feed us letters so we can temporarily defeat the ghosts that constantly haunt us each and every day!!! You might even win a game or something. Send your letters to us at [email protected]. Or join our Discord and send a letter to us on there whilst also joining a UKIE subcommittee. Link below!

Hello! Welcome to another episode of One Life Left - the podcast version of the video game radio show that is now "officially" old enough to buy alcohol (in the UK, anyway).

This week we have more licence "owning" shenanigans, speculate over top secrets at Nintendo (who have also just invented the alarm clock), Konami get cosy with FIFA, Ste had general anaesthetic AND created a bot while Simon had a board meeting.

LETTERS! LETTERS?? LETTERS!!! We love 'em! We want MORE of 'em! PLEASE!? Send your letters to us at [email protected]. Or join our Discord and send a letter to us on there. Link below!

This week Field Commander Byron starts a war against TIGA (maybe), Ubisoft shares take a nosedive and Nintendo sues on the Daly, amongst many other things, gaming and non-gaming related. Meanwhile I run out of time to write what I wanted to write but, trust me, it was going to be amazing!

This week we have Kojima doing his usual, Zelda winning stuff, Kutaragi claims everyone thought PS would fail and do you buy or lease your games?! Does anyone actually know anymore?!?

Meanwhile Field Commander Byron went to Spain and Ste continued work apace on the OLL game now known as "Make Diamonds"!

Don't forget there's another Maraoke coming up this Friday (4th October) at Loading Stoke Newington! Grab your tickets quickly HERE!

On the show this week we have more Switch 2 rumours while Nintendo take Palworld to court and Sony pour $400million down the drain at the same time as preparing to celebrate the 30th anniversary of PlayStation. Woo!

Meanwhile we have another Maraoke coming up on Friday 4th October at Loading Stoke Newington! Tickets available HERE!

It's Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail 2024 as Simon continues his quest for world domination via election to the board of UKIE!! If you're eligible to vote then VOTE SIMON and it'll be drinks for everyone around at Buck House if he gets voted in*!

Meanwhile we also ponder how to pronounce Godot, question how many more lamp-posts the PS5 Pro will give us and apologise for the lack of Switch 2 news last week, amongst other things...

We need more ideas for our appearance on Yogscast next week (Tuesday 24th Sept), dear listeners!

This is the last episode of this season - join us next season to find out what happens in the adventures of our intrepid duo! This has been a One Life Left production brought to you by Ste Curran voiced by Steve Kurran and Simon Byron voiced by Bainsy Bainsington. Charlesbot is played by some hamsters in wheels rigged up to a keyboard and a microphone. Technology today, eh?

DON'T FORGET there's still time to get tickets for the next Maraoke!! It's on Friday 2nd August at Loading Peckham! Get your tickets here: https://lu.ma/ax682w5w
