Oh God, I can't believe we're going to this naked, naked and hard.

Let's hope it works.

Let's do us. Hello, hello and welcome to the Midlife Gamer podcast. Today is Wednesday the 22nd of May 2013. My name is Darren Baldock and we have at the other end of the internet, Mr...

You have a very excited Mr Matthew Moore. Yes, absolutely. And a very good reason why we should be excited.

What a week it's been.

What an amazing 24 hours it's been, I must say.

We're obviously recording at a strange time, it's worth saying at first, which is a Wednesday.

And it's the 22nd of May, which is, we're almost to the hour, 24 hours

beyond the Xbox One announcement, so we've got all that to talk about. So the show's going to

be a little different this week. We've got some of the usual stuff, what we've been playing.

Charts, new releases, DLC.. No quiz sadly this week,

but we want to pave the way for some good hard Xbox One chat.

So without further do, ladies and gentlemen,

kick back and relax and enjoy episode 194 of the Midlife Gamer podcast.

Oh yes.

My friend, my friend, how have you been?

So well. Now, ordinarily, we don't record on a Wednesday night. It's not really our back, is it? It's not. So there's going to be a strange dynamic flowing between us, I suspect. But I can still see your face. Do I look any more school nighty? Yeah. Yeah, you look. there's a midweek look about you, if I might say so. You need to do something with that hair of yours. My friend, I had my hair cut because it's holiday haircut. Another reason why we were recording early, we realised that I was going to be away when we were next scheduled to do a full show. Cool.

So I was like, well, why did we do?

Why don't we throw one in? So let's throw a cheeky midweek or a weekend of it. And you're like, ah, tell you what, we do have a big announcement happening next week. Why don't we wait? Hold it over. Xbox One got announced last night. and it gives us a nice excuse to talk about that relatively sharp off the news.

Yes, yes, absolutely.

So, and I, box one got announced last night and gives us a nice excuse to talk about that relatively sharp off the news yes yes absolutely so i guess that's an opportunity to manage expectations

around the next recording i suspect it will be a fortnight sunday is when we will be next uh having a mouth
