The funny thing about tech is as soon as you get some new tech you wonder what you can do next with that tech and the answer is always to add more tech. We love tech but dang, that's good business right there. In this podcast: No Man’s Sky, Yoku’s Island Express, smart home tech, Sonic Mania Plus, Enter the Gungeon, Fallout Shelter and Halo Wars 2.
It's too hot, the crew is woozy and injured, perfect podcast time! In this episode: Halo Wars 2, Devil May Cry 4, Riptide GP Renegade, Rocket League, Minecraft, Pokémon Quest and smart light stuff. PS. I know the audio isn’t quite up to snuff this week. There’s a bit of an echo and Dan is too quiet but we’ll figure it out next time.
E3 may have gone, and there may no longer be any news but we're full of meat any ready to treat! Feed your ears! In this episode: Devil May Cry 4, Pokémon Quest, The Last of Us, State of Decay 2, Splatoon 2 and Fallout Shelter.
Ready for more, because there's a whole episode more of E3 press conference stuff. SaladCast runs down Ubisoft, the PC Gaming Show, Sony and Nintendo.
No weird episode titles this week. It's all business as the biggest show in town opens again and the SaladCast E3 press conference breakdown comes with it in two parts. Let’s get cracking with EA, Microsft, Bethesda and Devolver.
Crticism may be easier than invention, but without criticism we may not learn as effectively. The Mario Tennis series is a reminder of what can happen should criticism be ignored. It is time for the SaladCast to cast judgement over the grass courts once again. Also in this episode, Battlefield V, State of Decay 2, Surviving Mars, Fallout 76, PUBG, Laser League, Terratech, Team Sonic Racing, Don't Starve, Risk of Rain, Rocket League and always more Zelda.
The good ship E3 has sprung a leak. The season of the game announcement will soon be upon us! In this episode: Leaks, Laser League, Rage 2, Uncharted 4, more legal disagreements, Vertiginous Golf, Panzer Dragoon Orta and more of the usual suspects.
"Bank holiday comes six times a year. Days of enjoyment to which everyone cheers. Bank holiday comes with six-pack of beer, Then it's back to work A-G-A-I-N". Blur was a good game. In this episode, a foody bit, a techy bit, a filmy bit and then a gamey bit.
THE HEAT IS BACK! Daytonaaaaaaaaa... Oh wait it's gone. In this episode we talk about bad films and Ready Player One, Dan buying a PS4 to play Uncharted 4, RIME, "Oi!", Mega Drive Mini, Super Metroid, Jackbox 5, Surviving Mars, Superhot and some other regulars.
Top tip: All work and no play makes a gaming podcast hard to produce. Let's not do that. In this episode, we’ve got cooking advice from the culinarily disadvantaged, a return to last year’s best and a couple of "Supers" to finish.
As the SaladCast enters it's ninth year it’s time to treat ourselves to a new theme tune and a hearty "everything will be ok". In this episode, Into The Breach, Sea of Thieves, kettle justification, Surviving Mars, Gears of War, Super Mario World and some news.
Everyone's starting to talk about E3 again but Nintendo has news all year round! Thankyou you handy content providers! In this episode: Nintendo direct news, Into the Breach, Recore, Oculus Rift, Gears of War 4 and helicopters.
The "Wintolympo" have come to an end allowing the snow to go on holiday and waft into the UK. The white ground is nice but we prefer green with us being all salad-y and stuff... In this episode: Minor Black Panther Spoilers, Recore, a Sonic movie, Terraria, Hand of Fate 2, Eets Munchies, Astroneer, Burnout Paradise and Mass Effect 2. Fluid Jamboree.
If we were to describe the SaladCast team as states of matter Zac would be solid, Dan would be liquid and Rob has to be gas. That's the end of the gag. Please enjoy the episode!
Remember that thing you were going to do? Do that. Remember the food you needed to buy? Go get that. Remember that place you had to be? Go there. Don't fancy any of that? Oh alright, have a SaladCast.
New year, not quite new games. 2018 invites us all to do what we always do so we invite you all to do what you always do with podcasts. In this episode you can get some Steamworld Dig 2, that Star Wars film, Rise to Ruins, Forza Horizon 3, electro-notifications, Hand of Fate 2, IKEA, Mass Effect 2, Flinthook and Mario Tennis.
You all know what this is so let's not write an overwrought blurb and cut to the chase. It’s the Game of the Year 2017 as discussed and picked by the happysalad crew. There’s loads of games discussed with some level of enthusiasm but which will give rise to the most?
What's this? A guest? I don’t think we’ve done this for a few...years, maybe. It’s a very exclusive club that "Kippers" belongs to. In this episode: The Game Awards, PSX, Call of Duty: WWII, Flinthook, more kettles, Hellblade, Laser League, Detroit, the Factorio segment and no Dan.
Everybody knows a podcast is supposed to be followed with pizza. Where's our pizza I hear the voice inside ask? The spotted tile game cheesy bread provider doesn’t seem to know. Yes I am hangry right now! In this episode: Hellblade, another kettle meets Zac’s criticism, Super Mario Odyssey and how the moons work, audio snobbery, Splatoon 2, Factorio mods, and Dwarf Fortress shoes.
It looks like you're at a popular site for site for drug deals. Google would like to ask a few questions. Did Shifty Greg supply top quality gear? Would you recommend Shifty Greg to a friend? On a scale of one to ten, how would you rate the funk of the skunk? In this episode of a podcast about videogames: Greetings, Mario Odyssey, awarding PUBG and other early access games, Micro Machines World Series, EA says silly things on reddit, Neon Chrome, android phones, Opus Magnum, Factorio, Rocket Lea...
Life hack! The easiest way to start your own bonfire is to just wait for thugs to throw ignited petrol at cars outside your home. How convenient! In this episode: Super Mario Odyssey, bad milk, Splatoon 2, Distant Worlds, Opus Magnum, Starcraft 2, WOW, Runic games and something else.
In the not too distant future, artificial beings are built to look act act like humans. Blending into society, the "hipsters" are becoming an accepted part of our daily lives, but there are rules. Hipsters that break those rules and serve over priced artisan foods must have their beards and buns shaved. Those that wield the blade are known as “Razor Joggers”. In this episode: The obligatory lootbox conversation, Rain World, IGN and Humble, Opus Magnum, Shovel Knight, XBOX One dashboard fonts, Ke...
It seems that as far as humans have come with science and technology improving our daily routines, there are some elements of modern life that still suck. In this episode we cover the conundrum of the kettle and the office chair. This isn't a joke, we really do. Other stuff in this episode: Forza 7 microwagers, finishing Nier Automata, the absence of Frozen 2, Cuphead problems, Slime Rancher, more Minecraft mod pack woes, Rocket League changes, Sonic on the Megadrive and DeadCore.

You know it must be raining when your noisy gaming session is interrupted by natural white noise. Take pause from the gunfire, engines and satisfying "dings" of gaming to enjoy some proper surround sound, and then drown it in dubstep. In this episode: Space Engineers, stuff found in boxes, Sonic Mania, stuff found in ears, Nier Automata, stuff found in pipes, Splatoon 2, stuff found in Kitchens, Dwarf Fortress and stuff found in Hyrule.
Dude, video games are, like, so totally rad right now. I mean, you'd have to be like, mega lame to not be all "Woah, that’s so rad" when stuff is all lasers and sick tricks and tubular tunes, y’know? Don’t be a bozo bro, be wicked ace to the max. In this episode: Sonic Mania, Gamescom news, old peripherals, Splatoon 2, NieR: Automata, Fault: Milestone 2 Side: above (yes that is the full title), Zac’s Rocket League update and Dan’s Zelda update.
Hey hey we're the Salad, and we like cucumbering around, but we’re too busy piz’ing, to pull this food from the ground... In this episode, some news, Nier: Automata, Splatoon 2, Deadbolt, Rob’s visual novel adventure and the Zelda minute returns.
There still isn't a great deal of news about. It’s now backpacking in Asia, lost it’s passport and may never return. Meanwhile, there is the subject of breakfast for us at home to attend to. In this episode: Splatoon 2, Snake Pass, Fault: Milestone One, Formula Fusion, Wipeout 3, Minecraft, Titanfall 2, Noita, Overwatch, and the Zelda bit is back.
The news is on holiday, probably trying to get a tan on its white spaces, so it's up to us to fill time with epic tales of mundanity. We got Alienation, Splatoon 2, Formula Fusion, Crypt of the Necrodancer, Wipeout Omega Collection, Minecraft and a visual novel. Pretty sure there’s something missing here...
Dan has re-plumbed his tubes and returns to the fold only to find a mess of games happened. Let's clean it up! In this episode: Dan’s E3 review, Tekken 7, Atari, Sonic’s boosh, Ever Oasis, bagging areas, DiRT 4, and the Zelda section never leaves.
