Hello there, chaps and chappets. It's Dan here. Now you're probably thinking,

that silly old buffoon he started speaking before the intro music started. Well, no, sadly not.

The reason why I am speaking to you a little bit ahead of schedule is that I need to apologize.

Not for me, but quite specifically for John.

Now, amazingly, it's not a general apology about his existence as a long-haired skirt-wearing fop, but rather that he managed to use the wrong microphone to record this show, meaning that his Glasgowijian rambling sound even more indecipherable than usual. I can only say, I'm deeply sorry

that you have to listen to some slightly poorer quality audio from John than you're used to,

and it's a bit of a shame, since amazingly, the chap had actually remembered to play some video games

for this week's podcast. So, anyway, my apologies, I'm terribly sorry,

and I promise that John will work out how to use a USB port next week.

So, anyway, without further ado, um, Dave, roll the music.

In 2012, most video game news seems to revolve around America.

Well, b-h-to-that.

We stand for Queen, Country, and Video Games.

BRB, UK.

Worst teeth, better accents.

Thank you. Worst teeth, better accents. Hello, hello, and indeed, ahoy, hoy-hoy, and welcome to episode 23 of BRB UK.

We're back once again, even though not necessarily everyone would want us to be troubling their eardrums at this stage. Leading up to the weekend, I'm rambling. Because I'm confused because the weather's been bad, and it's summer, and I don't know what's going on. Nurse! It's okay. Summer's on the way, apparently. It's coming soon. To a... I'm on the nurse! A weather near you.

Hang on, hang on.

I just got distracted by John being very excited about pretending he's a nurse.

Did you hear a slight bit of fapping noise in the background? Yeah, I think there's a worrying amount of fapping, I think.

That was my cheer creaking.

Oh, that would test.
