#483 - Steam Creeping
14/09/2022 Duración: 01h06minHello and... how do we do this? It's been so long... welcome to a new episode of One Life Left! Many games got played over Summer but no houses were bought! In this episode we learn the difference between remakes and remasters, create breaking news stories that may not happen, realise who Scopely is and talk push/pull factors in games. Plus all the usual bits of news, letters and reviews. One Life Left - Intuitively controlled since 2006! Meanwhile, live shows come back to our Discord server next Sunday, 18th September, at around 7pm BST... but join in earlier to help set the mood! See below for the Discord link! Did you miss us over Summer? Do you have any house buying tips? Tell us everything, and maybe ask us gaming related questions as well, at team@onelifeleft.com or drop a letter to us on our Discord server. Cheerio!

#482 - Live a Little
27/07/2022 Duración: 01h05minWelcome once again, dear listeners, to the podcast edition of the World's Longest Running Video Game Related Radio Show: One Life Left! This week we recorded the show live on our Discord server and sounded at least 1% sexier thanks to performing to a crowd. In amongst the news, letters and reviews we had Simon surviving a trip to IKEA to buy a new desk, Ste being fine with not buying the new Atari Lego, Ubisoft cancelling lots and how you'll have to move house and change your whole identity if there's ever a security breach anywhere. The show also briefly turns into Hot UK Deals and we have Simon's Live Fast Five - Games With User Generated Content (that's UGC for the cool kids). Maraoke returns to Bristol! But be quick or you'll miss it as the date is this Thursday 28th July!! The link for all the details is below... Do you like pre-order discounts? What are your thoughts on possible future One Life Left merch?? Write to us and let us know at team@onelifeleft.com or throw yourselves at our Discord channel

#481 - Zoom Bye
20/07/2022 Duración: 01h04minWelcome once again to the podcast edition of One Life Left! We have an even hotter episode for you this week, quite literally... We battle the heat and, with sweat patches aplenty, still manage to bring you a plethora of reviews, a sack full of news and, well, there were no letters this week, instead we review the latest goings on in our Discord server, but more of that later... We also have hot weather coping tips, Ste's adventures at Develop and we briefly consider bringing back the Games Media Awards for our own devious ends! Also we have Simon attempting to filibuster his way out of another Fast Five. Listen in to hear how he did! Meanwhile, this episode's Simon Byron's Fast Five covers Hottest Video Games! We forgive you for not sending any letters in this week, dear listeners, but the price of admission to be one of our live, not-studio, audience members at 7pm next Sunday is a letter, plus join our Discord server - an absolute bargain at half the price! Send your letters to us at team@onelifeleft.com

#480 - Wetsuit Weekly
12/07/2022 Duración: 01h06minIt's too hot to type, dear listeners! Instead imagine, if you will, that I've just spent the past hour and a bit listening to this podcast that you all know and love and am then typing notes about Simon's exploits as a new wetsuit owner and how much is too much vaseline when putting on a wetsuit, Ste almost maybe admitting to possibly harassing Nintendo over Twitter via anonymous accounts in his pursuit for more F-Zero games and our dynamic duo's plans for Develop:Brighton this week. Then imagine I'm mentioning this episode also covers all the usual news and reviews and that I'm thanking you for the letters this week before imploring you to please send more letters to us at team@onelifeleft.com or by joining our ridiculously friendly Discord server at https://discord.gg/nzcMpvbCpk Envisage me then mentioning the possibility of a Maraoke event in Bristol this month on July 27th and that you might find out more at this link: https://www.facebook.com/singmaraoke or this link https://twitter.com/singmaraoke bef

#479 - Always Never F-Zero
29/06/2022 Duración: 01h04minOperator: This is 999. You're through to the police. What is your emergency? Caller: I need to report a crime... Operator: Very good, sir. What would you like to report? Caller: Some children in the park are pulling twigs off a tree. Operator: Ah. Not really a crime, that, sir... Caller: Well, there's also a dead hedgehog in the road, here. Operator: Erm. OK. One of those days... Again, sir, not a crime. Is it causing a hold-up, stopping traffic or anything? Caller: No but it doesn't look great... Operator: As I said, then, not a crime. Caller: OK, well, how about this: Simon Byron dropped a c-bomb on the latest edition of One Life Left. Operator: A what? Caller: A c-bomb. You know? He said the word cu- Operator: Oh! Yes sir, I understand... Caller: Well, it was beeped out but the beep didn't half distress my cat... Operator: Poor thing. Caller: Thank you. Operator: What else happened? Caller: Well, he also talked about almost breaking the law in Sweden and performed an impromptu impression of Bob Hoskins. Op

08/06/2022 Duración: 01h06minWelcome to another episode of One Life Left, dear listeners, and more "accurate" show notes from our Undercaretaker! This week we question the definition of a gaming leak, hope that Charles Cecil MBE is involved with the next Street Fighter game, learn about the new Sega mini-console to be released that we'll use only once (if we buy it at all, which we likely won't), discover that Simon still knows what skeuomorphism means, Ste reveals how to get two free ice creams and we find out which games actually scare our intrepid duo!

#476 – Social Deduction
01/06/2022 Duración: 01h05minThis week’s show sees our very handsome hosts struggle to maintain their usual award-winning radio standards but it’s still the best thing you’ll hear on the Internet this week. They talk about loads of stuff, offering the best opinions and comments on everything of interest. Indeed, if you were in dire need of an essay on videogames you could simply hand in a transcript and you’d get an A* or equivalent. (NB: the person that usually writes this stuff is on holiday, but presumably this is the sort of stuff he writes.)
