The UK’s number one gaming podcast. Just gets better each week . So give it a listen then give it the 5 stars it deserves.

This podcast has really lost its way
I used to love these guys from way back in the Joypod days but they have really lost their way unfortunately…

The best podcast around
TCGS holds a special place in my heart. I listened to my first episode (2020 game of the year special) in late December 2020, on a dark morning starting a new fitness regime. I’ve never missed an episode since and it’s genuinely one of the funniest and entertaining podcasts around. It helps if you love computer games, but actually that is not essential as *spoiler alert* they often talk about ridiculous things unrelated to computer games. Just listen and subscribe- you’ll thank me.

Horrible little creeps
Their attempt to deal with gender politics this week was cringeworthy nonsense. They clearly have no idea what they are talking about. One star and goodbye, you misogynist idiots.

The only show I listen to day of release without fail!
A consistently fun and enjoyable listen which is no easy feat.

James Farley appreciation society membership
I recently signed up for the JFAS and cannot believe that JF is not the “Main One”. I signed up at the “Goblin of News” level and expect at least 30 minutes of quality news items and at least one Stadia report every week.
I may be forced to change my sub to “Little Chief” level.
Pick it up JF the world is listening !!

Always Great
Been listening to these chaps in various forms for many years. Probably funnier now than ever. A really good podcast to paint your fence to.

In the beginning...
Hands down the funniest games podcast around. You owe it to yourself to listen.

Par Excellence
One of the finest podcasts, nay one of the finest pieces of entertainment in existence. The team continue to outdo themselves with their contributions to the world of podcasts, entertainment and streaming. On the podium for highlights of my week, just behind Cane and Rinse 😂
2020-09-11
Simply the best
News and views from all the lads and Dr Boomstick Big Dick Farley.
Better than Cane & Rinse.

Top quality. Give them a listen!
Very funny. Highly enjoyable and you might even end up pissing yourself with laughter just like I did when I listened to the first episode. If only I could give this 6 stars!
Keep up the good work.

Listen to this podcast
It’s such a great thing that TCGS exists-- David, Sean, Mat and James have made something really special here. The podcast is mainly dedicated to interesting and (mostly) well-informed chat about video games and the video game industry. One particularly admirable thing is that they often cover stories about darker sides of the industry (stories which other podcasts might not want to spend time on), and they always approach these topics with a lot of sensitivity and thought. These are four good leds.
As for their discussion of the games themselves, their own reactions to what they’re playing are put front and centre, which makes for a really personal and pleasantly unpolished experience. On this podcast, you’ll meet someone who thinks that Red Dead 2 is last-gen, Super Metroid is bad, and— perhaps worst of all— Detroit: Become Human is *good*. And you’ll come out the other end thinking he’s an alright guy. Madness.
Really, though, this podcast isn’t about the games. (I didn’t even own a console for the first 6 months or so I was listening). It’s about eavesdropping on chat between four very funny people, hearing about their lives, and getting that feeling of you-don’t-really-know-them-but-they’re-your-mates that only great podcasts can give you.
If you haven’t listened to this and want to get into it, right this second download one of their Game of the Year Shows and put it on. You’ll immediately see what makes this podcast such a special thing.

Top video game podcast out there.
Great news courtesy of Dr Farley as well as 4 guy’s opinions of the latest and greatest games they’ve played that week. Continues to be great especially when Adam Capone graces us with an edit.
2020-08-19
Pretty great
Great podcast that’s laid back and covers all the latest news. Don’t agree with their Halo opinions though; Halo 2’s story being bad and Halo 4’s multiplayer being “excellent” are just some of the disgusting views you’ll be subjected too. Other than that though it’s pretty good.
2020-08-01
Alright
Can get a little pedantic thanks to that Matt Murray lad, who thinks games are the most important thing ever. He’s is clearly on the spectrum and also appears to struggle to read letters out loud.

Good but drop the politics
Good, fun podcast that doesnt take itself too seriously.......until the left wing politics creep in and ruin it. This might be a bonus for some but can be grating and cringe inducing with some of the blinkered nonsense they come up with. (ethnic minorities dont like the Police, you know 'cos of rascism ....err really, no sweeping generalisiation or stereotyping there then?) Shrug that off and its well worth a listen.
And James is the main one.

Proper debate and banter between gaming experts who know their stuff.

Highest quality gaming podcast
Long term listener, still in love with this podcast! I look forward to my weekly dose of gaming news and reviews. Wonderful banter between these avid gamers, with an excellent host pulling everyone to order, makes you feel like you’re in the middle of a late night gaming chat with your mates! Keep up the good work. Uxorious.

Only here for Mr Boomstick
A highlight of the week. Well researched news items and an obvious love for games with a healthy disrespect for some of the odder stuff in gaming culture. Love the dad stuff, love the sound of Mr Boomstick approaching break point every week, love the cookery show. Apparently they do streaming on Twitch but I’m 39 and don’t know what that is.

Communists.
Used to love this Podcast, but they’ve just turned into communists... it’s quite scary really. I think they need to reconnect to their Grandparents from the war, they’ll have a thing or two to tell them about how bad Karl Marx was.

Best Gaming Podcast Out There

Great game knowledge along with some of the finiest banter known to man.
2018-11-23
Good stuff
Very funny and interesting chat. Definitely worth it if you’re at all interested in computer games. Good stuff.
2018-11-09
THANKS FOR LIVING IT
One of the funniest podcasts ever made that sometimes talks about video games.
2018-10-24
Best Gaming Podcast Out There

Best there is
Sometimes its like listening to your mum and dad argue, but Christmas is only around the corner. Don't take the arguments to serious and enjoy

Appologies accepted and back on track
Recent podcasts became dark and unpleasunt. However, listened to first 5 mins of the latest podcast and there was a honest heart felt appology for a bad thought out joke that wasn't nice.
Now the team seems back on track and as excellent as always. Much easier to listen to, full of fun and insight. Hopefully the banter will relax and find a more respectful level.
It takes a big man to listen to the feedback and adjust, so respect where it's due. I have a bigger respect for the quick turnaround.
The podcast is now full of Laughs and Fun, just how it used to be and needs to be.

The best UK games podcast
Love it. A weekly highlight, and if you’re thinking of starting to listen you’ve picked a good time as their E3 coverage is always great
2018-05-02
A once great podcast
This was really one of the best gaming podcasts around from the start but since losing a member (albeit temporarily), it's become so unpleasant and mean spirited. I've gone from enjoying it all weekly, to ocasionally skipping over certain bits that tonally feel unpleasant, to tapping out all together minutes in.
Video games culture is a trash fire and this was, to begin with, a nice respite. I'm getting out before the phrase 'SJW' gets used without a hint of irony ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Easily The Funniest Gaming Podcast
Never felt compelled to review a podcast before but Jon’s rants regarding Sea of Thieves on the last couple of episodes have just been amazing! Always loved the show!
Give it a try. Doesn’t take much patience to listen to as it’s interesting and I think it’s got real staying power.

Funny and relatable
Really enjoyable and funny podcast. Never fails to make me chuckle. Also as a parent myself I enjoy the little stories about the guys’ kids and their experiences with video games.

The only gaming show you need
Great banter. The hosts have a variety of tastes & character. Great entertainment

Best show out there
Best weekly gaming podcast out there. Now with the legendary Jon Denton too. Highly recommend

Better than Knack
I found Joypod in the very week that it shut down, but loved what I did hear. This is the spiritual successor and is possibly even better. Lots of variety, game information and of course sick bants. Whatever that means.
2018-01-25
WTF!
I loved Joypod, so much so that I still have the last episode saved as I couldn't bear to delete it. (Midnight Resistance also ran).
I’ve spent the intervening time mourning the show and the giant “Turnip calling an Egg a Pedophile” shaped hole it left in my life. Now I discover I could have been listening to this show all the time.
WTF Elmo! Now I have over 80 episodes to catch up on you giant numpty.
(At least I don’t have to listen to any more off the Egg’s “will he or won’t he get a “job” in a prison” soap opera.)
I still say Turners and Adam Capone are the same person.

The Main One
This podcast featuring the main one and friends is coincidentally my ‘main one’ when it comes to computer game shows.
David, James, Matt and (when possible) Sean have a great chemistry and mixture of opinions which leads to a podcast full of laughs and arguments. I look forward to it every week and their GOTY show is the only one that really matters.
2017-11-23
Smesh hit
The best video game show around. Genuine opinions and hilarious aguments and banter every week. Don't miss out!
2017-11-15
Great podcast
I like this podcast

Now missing Sean
Excellent podcast - hope it doesn’t deteriorate without Sean...
2017-09-26
Really good podcast
Having discovered this show around E3 time this year, I’ve been hooked ever since. The presenters are knowledgeable and passionate about games and always produce a fun and entertaining podcast every week. One of the highlights of my listening every week.
2017-07-28
Perfect
As much a comedy show as a gaming podcast, this is one of the most entertaining podcasts out there, with a great cast of characters debating and squabbling their way through a variety of topics. On first listen you would question whether they actually like each other, but mostly tongue is in cheek and there is real chemistry between the hosts. Love them all, and the show has given birth to many catchphrases, such as 'there are reasons.' A fantastic podcast, one of the very best.
2017-07-06
.
It's fine.
2017-06-29
The best E3 that never was.
If you like games and if you like people talking about games then listen to these guy's they talk about games. Ok!
