Also, listener questions. Loads of them. In fact, this episode runs pretty much forever. But do listen to all of it!

We'll ignore the fact that, even if this episode had gone up a week ago, it still would've been woefully late. This is part two of three of our Eurogamer Expo coverage, if you think the last episode counts. We do. Instead of us just sitting around in a car, though, this episode has us actually talking about actual games that we actually played at the show. Imagine! There's too many to list (and half of them are probably on the shelves now), and it goes on forever, but shut up. It's value for money. After we've talked about the games, we talk about the show in general, and answer your questions, like ALWAYS. Next episode will feature our interviews with all the indie developers we could harass into talking to us, as well as maybe a special Hallowe'en bit. We'll see. BYE!

Hello and welcome to another episode of our stupid podcast. This one was recorded whilst Owen and Sean sat in Sean's car, waiting to be let into Andi's flat so they could get some sleep before attending this year's Eurogamer Expo in that London they have down there. If Sean seems a bit slow to begin with, it's because he's driven for nearly five hours and just been to Pizza Hut. This episode's a relatively short one, wherein we sort of try and talk about what we've been playing (and fail miserably), then have a break, then get onto the good stuff, like answering your questions and talking about our plans for the expo. Most of which didn't happen at all. But there'll be more on that in the next episode where we talk more fully about our experiences at the show.

Also at one point Andi breaks his headset. It's very exciting. After the usual games-of-the-week/month/whatever, we put our listeners ON THE SPOT by making them do the Ninja Games recommendations for once, and then we ask them a load of stupid questions. See how they bloody like it. Thanks so much to those of you who came on the show (and apologies to PhilWal; rules are rules, but you are still our favourite). It was a genuine pleasure to get to chat to some of you, and most of you didn't have awful microphones which was an unexpected bonus. The fate of the next episode hangs in the balance, on account of Andi not having a proper headset. We'll probably let you know via Twitter when he sorts that out, or something.

The recording for this episode clocked in at two hours and forty minutes, but it turned out over an hour of that was utterly redundant and has been skilfully removed. THINGS IN THIS EPISODE: Owen has been playing Tiny Tower and CivWorld; Sean's rediscovered the joys of altruism through Monster Hunter Tri, and Andi's been playing Quake Live like some kind of early-noughties throwback mental. Sean attempts to make an observation about how retailers couldn't give a shit about the PSP, and how this can actually work in the maligned handheld's favour. Then, we address the issue of the last episode getting covered pretty much everywhere as a result of Team Meat's comments on piracy. In case it needs saying again, thanks so much to Ed and Tommy for coming on the show, and thanks to you if you're a new listener who stuck around for more than one episode. Regular listeners, though? No thanks for you. NO THANKS. After that, QUESTIONS. Our memory of this bit is pretty foggy, but there's a definitely a bit where we explain why Ross Kemp couldn't believe his luck when he was offered the opportunity to spend his days visiting parts of the world ravaged by crime or war. There's also a poncy discussion about how we define what a videogame is, wherein Owen discusses why walking into a lift is a game, and Tetris isn't. And some other stuff. ENJOY.

This episode, we're joined by Edmund McMillen and Tommy Refenes of Team Meat. Well, Ed joins us for pretty much the whole thing, while Tommy does his best to stay involved via a wonky 3G connection, and God bless him for doing so when it would've been totally acceptable for him to tell us he had better things to do. There's a lot of conflicting info in the podcast about the running order, and there are two intros. So, don't worry too much about trying to figure out what the hell is going on. It's fine. We kick off by asking Ed (and sometimes Tommy) a load of questions - hoping to avoid a repeat of the episode where we had Michael Pachter on, and spent half an hour boring him to tears with Phantasy Star Online chat - ranging from proper questions to the usual juvenile crap we come out with. For example, there's a bit where Ed and Tommy detail their feelings towards the IGF Awards, but there's also a bit about pooing in public places. After that, we discuss what we've bought in the recent Steam sale and not actually played, then we fire some of your questions into Ed's face and ears. Many thanks to everyone who sent those in, and apologies that, for once, we couldn't read them all out due to time constraints.

It's Ian's last proper episode, as he's left us for a career in PR. He hasn't admitted to doing coke yet, but it's only a matter of time. We skip what we've been playing, because we had nothing interesting to say on that front, and these podcast episodes have been too sodding long lately anyway. We go straight into listener questions - thanks for those - and then discuss our thoughts on E3. The whole procedure takes about 80 minutes, and is relatively painless. Apart from one bit that will leave you emotionally devastated. So keep an ear out for that. Oh! And as a parting gift, Ian attempts to give some stuff away at the end.

Allowing ourselves to get excited about it. Making plans. Talking about what we think might happen, when we know just as little as you do. BRILLIANT. This week kicks off with Owen talking too much about Pokémon Blue, Sean talks about Duke Nudem and then wishes he hadn't, and finally Andi and Sean join forces to talk about the hugely flawed masterpiece that is Brink. The second bit is all about E3. Listen to us talk about how badly we want Phantasy Star Online 2, as if you didn't already know. Third bit, is LISTENER QUESTIONS. They are good. Listen to them. Next episode - which should hopefully go up before E3 - we announce the winners of the Magicka competition, and finalise our plans for the DarkZero E3 Liveblog/Glorified Chat Room. So LISTEN to THAT.

THIS EPISODE contains words about Crysis 2, Lego Pirates of the Caribbean, Lego Die Hard, Cargo!, Section 8: Prejudice, and some other stuff. We then discuss THE NEWS as it was two weeks ago. We'll get better at this, promise. The Magicka competition is still open, and we'll make it easier for you all by shoving the details in here. If you want to win a copy of Magicka and the recent Vietnam DLC, e-mail us at the usual address (below) and tell us your own made-up magick spell. It can use the elements in the game, or ones you've made up yourself. Points awarded for imagination and FUNNY. If you don't know why you should want a copy of Magicka - and you bloody should - or you don't know enough about how the game's magick system works, read Sean's stupid review. That should give you some idea. Also, we're torn as to what we should do for E3. Last year we ran a little liveblog/glorified chat-room during the big conferences, and it was a lot of fun. HOWEVER, we've also toyed with the idea of recording commentaries for the conferences instead. So, we're leaving it up to you to decide what we do. GET IN TOUCH. TELL US.

Then we answer your questions, which are incredible. Join us next time, where we try out an incredible structural shift in the podcast running order. Sort of. Cheers!

But it doesn't really work. You see what we mean though? Anyway. We've actually got two episodes in the can as we write this, because Sean got himself a promotion at his proper job, and is too knackered to edit stuff on time. So, the episode we most recently asked questions for has been recorded, but will be released some time soon. Or in a month or something. Who knows!? Still, let's deal with this episode, first. Sean and Ian talk far too much about Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, Andi talks loads about The Sims: Medieval (it's good, apparently!) and we can't remember what Owen talked about because this was recorded about three weeks ago. Probably something good, though. The listener questions bit is varied as ever, with the topics of discussion ranging from the titular sexy insects, to the subject of infanticide in games. Also, Ian finally, finally shares his sexy animal story. So, listen out for that. Check back with us next time where we'll have an actual competition with an actual good prize that you might actually want! Not even kidding. Thanks as always for your questions and that. We are worthless without you, basically. Oh yeah, Owen's audio sounds a bit poo in the first half. It gets better, though. Sorry.

One day we will be as big as Ricky Gervais and we'll be able to do this for a living, but we're not quite there yet. We can't really remember what's on this episode. There's a Twitter poll at some point to find out which host is the best, and some stuff about John Romero's wives. Oh! And there's a competition to win some Xbox Avatar stuff, thanks to listener Thedni. Listen to the podcast to find out what the hell that's about. There's also a little bit with Michael Pachter in it, thanks to Owen doing a spot of REAL JOURNALISM in San Francisco. Also, if nothing else, you should listen to this episode to hear Sean suddenly become very ill in the second half. It's ace. We should be recording early next week, so feel free to get your questions and competition entries to us via Twitter,  or by e-mailing us at podcast [at] darkzero.co.uk.
