Didn’t get a chance to attend the EB Games Expo this year? You’re in luck, because after a long hiatus the Mega Ultra Blast Cast returns with a bumper episode to smash through the best and worst games from the show, before we talk Smash Bros, discuss the future of Destiny, give away a full Steam game and catch up on the biggest news stories of the last month. It’s 100 minutes of Delaney-isms, hard-hitting criticism, nonsense and Pringle crunching – It’s Episode 30, only on Soundcloud!
If you feel so inclined, go for a run, take a scenic drive, jazz up your afternoon commute or just curl up on the couch and play some games while you listen to the opinions of three Smash Bros-addicted Sydneysiders.

It’s Destiny launch weekend and to celebrate the Mega Ultra Blast Cast gives out a free month of Playstation Plus and talks extensively about the massive game, trying to work out whether it’s actually good or just addictive at the moment. We also discuss Nintendo’s strange “New 3DS” announcement, the complete leaked Super Smash Bros roster, which season of Telltale’s The Walking Dead is the best and whether, after all that’s happened recently, the Playstation Vita is “dead” or not. Play some Destiny and give us a listen while you do!

After a bit of a break, the Mega Ultra Blast Cast returns with a veritable mountain of news to talk about! Gamescom news alone provides nearly half an hour of juicy discussion, and there’s also those crazy Nintendo announcements to talk about (Most of them, anyway – the “New 3DS” news dropped a couple of hours after we finished recording). We also talk about our TV show-watching habits, compare socks, play Swing Copters on-air and tackle a meaty listener-submitted question about what the word “exclusive” even means in the videogame industry anymore.
If you feel so inclined, go for a run, take a scenic drive, jazz up your afternoon commute or just curl up on the couch and play some games while you listen to the opinions of three efficient (?) Sydneysiders.

And just like that, it’s another episode of the Join myself, Delaney and Shane for a fun-filled, brand spanking new episode of the Mega Ultra Blast Cast! The barren game release drought of the last several months is almost over, so we discuss the worst gaming droughts of our lives while also breaking down the big news of the last fortnight, discussing why we love the new Guardians of the Galaxy movie, waxing lyrical about Rogue Legacy and taking regular tangent invitations. Also, Thai beer and Tasty Toobs.

And just like that, it’s another episode of the Mega Ultra Blast Cast! This time around we bring you the inside scoop on two exciting betas for upcoming games, Heroes of the Storm and Destiny. The results are really rather exciting! We also talk our favourite versions of Batman, some Cards against Humanity, terrible Delaney metaphors, a couple of intense movie arguments and a host of multi-game character reveals on the way to a ridiculously messy episode finish.
If you feel so inclined, go for a run, take a scenic drive, jazz up your afternoon commute or just curl up on the couch and play some games while you listen to the opinions of three refreshed Sydneysiders.

It’s time to take stock of the amazing movies of 2014 thus far on the 25th episode of the Mega Ultra Blast Cast. We three nominate our personal frontrunners for movie of the year to complement our half-yearly game conversation on the previous episode, leaving room to discuss the gaming/movie news of the hour, the awful state of Shane’s room, yet another Kingdom Hearts argument, the apparent game drought of the moment and why I won’t play Hearthstone. It’s MUBC. It’s “slick” and “focused”. Yes.

It’s been a slow news period but we are somehow already halfway through 2014, so the Mega Ultra Blast Cast runs through our personal candidates for game of the year so far on one of our shortest episodes yet. Zelda rookie Delaney has also just finished Wind Waker for the first time, so he gives us his impressions of that and more while Shane talks about Hearthstone and makes great mouth noises into the mic. The episode also features nonsensical tangents aplenty, as usual.

The Mega Ultra Blast Cast just celebrated its one year anniversary and that means another E3 wrap-up episode – only this one is thankfully about half as long as the first one we did in 2013! Shane, Delaney ad I still manage to talk about pretty much every single game at all five big conferences, then we break down our top five games of the show and who won our predictions (spoilers – It was me). There’s a lot to get excited about in 2015, and of course in that ridiculously packed October of this year. Enjoy!

Every other podcast seems to be doing it, so the Mega Ultra Blast Cast takes a shot at predicting the big announcements of the five big E3 press conferences! We each make two predictions per conference, with the stakes set at an all-expenses-paid dinner for the person who gets the most correct! We also pack in some in-depth discussions of Watch_Dogs, Mario Kart 8, all the pre-E3 game leaks, a debate about whether the Wii U really needs its gamepad controller and some confusion over Cher lyrics. It’s high-intensity and its only on Soundcloud.

The Mega Ultra Blast Cast was hit by every podcaster’s worst nightmare this time around – Shane’s computer turned off halfway through recording and we lost everything. But because we’re professionals (well, not technically), we soldiered on and recorded again from the start to bring you this bumper episode. Listen to witness a battle royale between Shane and Delaney as they debate the pros and cons of the new Godzilla movie, as well as several tangents about Green Lantern, Grimlock and Gambit. We also talk about plenty of topical gaming news, such as the big Xbox One Kinect-less announcement, the big reveal of Far Cry 4 and Nintendo’s new figurine strategy. Plus, I’ve actually finished some games lately!
