It's that time of the year again where E3 is a-happening. So in this show we dust off our crystal balls and make some bold (and possibly some stupid) E3 2018 Xbox predictions. We have our list of games, ideas to pitch, tech to talk about and make one last desperate plea for the "glorious" return of 1vs100. You know, sometimes it's just better to let things go....

Katie has never downloaded a free game from the Games With Gold Program. Will she change her mind after reviewing May 2018's line-up, or is her lack of hard-drive space holding her back?

While we've been away Aaron's been on a self imposed ban of EA games, but for an EA-Aholic like him which game has he missed the most? Katie hasn't been playing Sims 4, but is it in solidarity? Instead this Episode we talk Elite Dangerous, Superhot, WWE2K, playing video games with children, Portal 2 co-op and whether games like Sea of Thieves makes the Xbox Game Pass more attractive.

Tis the season for the big-guns, those huge annual releases that everybody goes mental for, so we play a game of Would You Rather, video-game style. We also wonder what's behind the "Games That We've Picked For You" section on the Xbox Store front. Inlcudes bad impressions, namely Geordies and Lightsabers.

We're not playing No Man's Sky because...Xbox, so instead we spend some time chatting about our #7FaveGames. Aaron ponders if there's a Gamer out there who has the same top 7 as him, leaving Katie to question his motives.

So thanks to a new Xbox One update, we now have the lovely Cortana to ask all sorts of questions to... We could have asked, "What's going on with Brexit?", or "Why is Deals with Gold getting predictable?", "Where's our Olympics Video Game this year?" or "Why did Goose have to die, Cortana, Whyyyyy???" Instead, we asked where Aaron was. "Harry is playing The Crew" was her reply. Wait...who's Harry? Nevermind... Small explicit warning in this Episode. Tunes courtesy of www.freesfx.co.uk...

In this Episode, we hop on our hoverboards, get sucked up by tubes and predict our gaming future. Will anti-static flatpacked floating consoles ever be a thing in a world where E-Sports is bigger than Sky Sports and micro-transactions are a blast from the past?? Let's all try and stay alive to find out, shall we ;) We also take a look at Games with Gold for February 2016, which is a little bit nearer in our future. Small explicit warning!
