Reset: A Gaming Podcast

Think you’ve already got the game of the year pegged? Well guess what, you probably do. But that doesn’t mean we can’t suggest a close second, or third. Or fourth, perhaps. It’s been a big year for games so it’s tough to say. Whatever the case, you’d be out of your mind (no pun intended) ...

An open letter to Blizzard: “I lost my retainer a few days ago, you guys haven’t seen it by any chance have you? Let me know. That’s all. Oh, wait wait, and also: in this episode we’re discussing Overwatch skins which you guys should add to the game, so uhh, do that. They’re good, I ...

Here’s one of the kids: some breakfast cereals used to include free copies of video games. Don’t believe me? Well I mean, what’s your problem? It’s true. How exactly have I managed to gain your mistrust? Whatever, nevermind. We’re talking about that this week. But that’s not all, oh no no no. We’ve played indie ...

What were you guys doing on April 1, 1997? No need to ponder, it’s a rhetorical question. I can’t remember what I was doing yesterday, let alone a single day more than 20 years ago. Come to think of it, I’m not even sure that’s technically a ‘rhetorical question’. I don’t even know why I ...

I could say that it was our destiny to play the Destiny 2 Beta this weekend, however that’s both untrue and also a really lame thing to say. So I shan’t say that. Again. But, yes, we have played the Destiny 2 Beta and unsurprisingly it feels a lot like Destiny. Hear what we, as ... [Read more...] The post #63 – Destiny 2 certainly feels like Destiny appeared first on RESET: A Gaming Podcast.

What a strange year it’s been: It started in January, and now we’re right in the middle of it. Really makes you think. Anyway, it’s mid year so we’re talking about our favourite games released so far. This week we’re also discussing Kingdom Hearts 3, first details about the Ataribox, Playstation 5 predictions, Star Wars ...

If the prospect of discussing video game soundtracks is music to your ears, then you may be suffering from tinnitus. Consult your doctor immediately. Whatever the case though, you’re in luck cause that’s what we’re blabbing on about in this week’s episode. This week we’re also discussing new Overwatch hero Doomfist, Nintendo Switch Online app, Assassin’s ...

Like a pair of proud zombie parents, we’re crying tears of joy at our boy Crash graduating from the grave this last week in the Crash Bandicoot N Sane Trilogy. And not even the expensive graduation ceremony, nor the long line for graduation photos can hide the fact that I’ve completely lost control of this ...

Four more days, people. Four more days until the ground-up remake of our childhoods is in our collective hot-little hands. But that’s still four days away. “Boring, what about now?” I hear you all groan. Well jeez, okay: Tegan’s played Garfield GO this week as promised, and she’s also picked up Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition, ...

Another E3 has gone by, and that can only mean one thing: the concept of time does in fact exist, and it is ever moving. It also means we’ve got plenty to talk about including our hands-on time with GOTY contender Garfield Go. And if that’s not enough titillation for you, we’ve also played WipEout Omega ...

To cap off our special E3 2017 press conference coverage, here are the final three: Ubisoft, Sony and Nintendo. Again, we mention everything announced in quick fire, and then discuss our stand outs. Oh, and we’ve also watched Devolver Digital’s press conference. Worth it. For Ubisoft, our standouts are Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, Skull ...

We’re in the midst of the E3 2017 press conferences, so here are the first three: EA, Microsoft and Bethesda. For each, we mention everything announced in quick fire, and then discuss our stand outs. For EA, that means Star Wars: Battlefront 2 and new prison break co-op IP: A Way Out. For Microsoft, we’re ...

Stop rubbing your eyes in disbelief, there are indeed two episodes of RESET this week. If you’re rubbing them for an unrelated reason, perhaps there’s something stuck in them? Try flushing them out with saline solution and if all else fails, consult your doctor immediately. Sorry, anyway E3 2017 is right around the corner and we are adequately excited ...

There was going to be a Tekken pun in the title but we though better of it. That kind of humour is beneath us. Actually, thats a lie, despite our best efforts we couldn’t even think of a Tekken pun. We’ve failed on multiple counts here. Anyway, sorry where were we? Oh yes, Tekken 7 is ... [Read more...] The post #56 – Tekken 7 and celebrating E3 cringe appeared first on RESET: A Gaming Podcast.

That’s a clever title right? Cause Far Cry 5 is about a religious cult. Faith, and all that. Cheers. Anyway, lots to talk about this week. We’ve played The Surge, passed Little Nightmares and played a bit of that Pokemon Magikarp Jump game. Are they worth playing? Well I’d be spoiling the episode if I answered ...

In two days it’ll be the one year anniversary of everyone’s (or at the very least, Tegan’s) favourite team based online FPS. While we wait to hear what surprises the anniversary event is going to include, we have a new fighting game to keep us occupied. And you know I’m talking about Injustice 2. This week ...

Ah the good old days when gaming magazines were plentiful and they came with demo discs, or CDs and DVDs full of glorious crap that you could never dream to download with dial-up internet. This week we’re clearly jumping on the nostalgia train, so get on board. Oh, by the way Alan Wake is being pulled from ... [Read more...] The post #53 – We miss gaming magazines and demo discs. And Alan Wake. appeared first on RESET: A Gaming Podcast.

We’re back from our week off to bring you a personal record-breaking fifty second episode. And just in time too, because a lot has happened in the last couple of weeks. The highly anticipated Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has released, and despite the fact we played it years ago on the Wii-U; boy are we enjoying ...

They said we couldn’t do it, and yet here we are: one year of RESET. Oh wait, actually no, they said we ‘shouldn’t’ do it. Fair enough, never mind. Anyway what better company to celebrate this momentous occasion than with our podcasting family (and secret lovers) from Sydney: The Hungry Gamers. With their help, we cap ...

Oh yes, the big 5-0. What a better way to mark this momentous occasion than by discussing Banjo-Kazooie’s spiritual successor Yooka-Laylee. Oh, and this week we also attempt the unthinkable: explaining the plot of Persona 5. I mean, yeah, we’re being melodramatic. But really, that game is insane and we love it. This week we’re also discussing Star Wars: ... [Read more...] The post #50 – Is Yooka-Laylee good? And can we explain Persona 5’s plot? appeared first on RESET: A Gaming Podcast.
