Things fall apart quickly in this week's episode.

Call it a bad case of Brooker being sick and insisting on sniffling his way through an episode and John sitting back and hoping he doesn't say anything too mean; but boy do we have an episode to lighten your day and offend your sensibilities.

It's been a fortnight of bad news sonce the last episode, so what better way to deal with such an awful couple of weeks than to let the lads let off sopme steam at the awfulness of games publishers and their terrible ways?

After a brief chat about the availability of Original XBox games on the Xbox One's backwards compatible program; the guys dig into Electronic Arts closing down the legendary Visceral Games and the sneaky gambling mechanics of Lootboxes and Activision's peer pressure patent. The conversations get kinda loud and sweary, the guys were pretty passionate about their precious games being messed with.

Once the game chat kicks in; it's Shadow of Mordor; Gran Turismo and South Park: The Fractured But Whole all the way. Are any of these games worth picking up? come join us for a couple of hours and find out.

Join us again next week, but until then why not join us on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Youtube.
