Posted by Rob, May 19, 2013 10:54 am

As we draw ever closer to the “reveal season” some news just can’t contain itself and slips free. This way it gives us something to talk about before the noise of E3. The games are coming and we must be ready for them.

This week there’s DmC, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon (and whether or not it’s racist), Bioshock Infinite, EA and Star Wars, Gran Turismo 6, Burnout Paradise, Star Trek, Half Minute Hero and Crysis Warhead.

Greece should have won Eurovision clearly.

Posted by Rob, April 21, 2013 12:26 pm

The return of the sun brings some danger with it. Some people may try and convince you that there’s a better world out there in the light. All you will find is MORE world. It’s like a disappointing RPG. Count on the SaladCast to provide you with useful public service information.

This week there’s Nintendo Direct news, Zac getting a 3DS, Spec Ops: The Line, Kerbal Space Program, Sim Farm, Injustice, children with footballs, Assassin’s Creed Revelations, the Tog scale, Burnout Paradise, Guild Wars 2, Planetside 2, Bioshock Infinite and more.

Gameplay – Need For Speed: Most Wanted

Posted by Rob, April 14, 2013 5:51 pm

In the wake of the SimCity being a bit crappy after launch Zac has been enjoying his choice of free game in the form of Need For Speed: Most Wanted. Can Criterion still deliver a thrilling drive or are they a little burnt out… geddit?

SaladCast 80 (6th April 2013) – Infinite Revelations

Posted by Rob, April 7, 2013 9:42 pm

In the wake of the PS4 reveal GDC doesn’t have the same gravitas of previous years for video game news. In reality this event isn’t really for us consumers, it’s for the developers. It’s in the name… So while we hold on for E3 we’ll just keep doing what we do: playing games and talking rubbish.

This week we talk about Lucas Arts and their work, Assassin’s Creed Revelations, Bioshock Infinite, Need For Speed: Most Wanted, Guild Wars 2, Planetside 2, new Metal Gear Solid, DiRT 2 and 3, Bit Trip Runner 2, SONY hardware and more.

Posted by Rob, March 19, 2013 9:40 am

Be sure to stay to end for the nail biting twists and turns that will decide our DDMC champion.

SaladCast 78 (9th March 2013) – Nin(ja) City

Posted by Rob, March 10, 2013 2:22 pm

Season 4 is here! It’s been three whole years since Happysalad came back from the dead in the form of the SaladCast. This shambling corpse of a podcast has no signs of being stopped. It doesn’t go outside and there are no plants indoors to thwart it!

This week we talk about really old school games, Soul Calibur V, Halo 4, Mark of the Ninja, BIT.TRIP Runner 2, Deadpool, Guild Wars 2, Gratuitous Space Battles and inevitably SimCity.

In this Podcast:

Gameplay – BIT.TRIP Runner 2

Posted by Rob, March 10, 2013 2:04 pm

This is more properly known as “BIT.TRIP Presents Runner 2: Future Legend of Rythm Alien”. You can shorten that to BTPR2FLORA if you want. Please tell us how you pronounced it. Zac and Rob show a selection of stages from the game. There ARE spoliers I guess but it’s hard to call them spoilers in a game like this.
