Summary

Jonathan Ross joins us for the usual melange of games, comics and movies chat. Remember when we said we were going to have a special guest on the podcast a few weeks ago? It’s happened – we got TV’s motor-mouthed and geeky-brained Jonathan Ross in to talk to us about his new games and comics projects and, of course, them video games. We even filmed it for your added enjoyment. Take a look at our wee faces: We chat about the mobile games studio that Jonathan’s been involved with and its recently re-released game, Catcha Catcha Aliens, Miyazaki and Japanese films, celebrity name-dropping, Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag, microtransactions, superhero films, Tomb Raider, a bit of Bioshock and the coming year’s big movies and games. Seriously, we really went on a bit. You can listen or download below. We’ll be back next week sans Ross - but there's plenty to digest in the meantime.
