Have a listen and find out!

TMA 170 – Sonic Maniacs

This week the boys get down to some serious talk on Sonic Mania! A game Tom loves for obvious reasons and Mat can confirm is ‘a good game’ regardless of his feelings on blue spiked mammals. Besides this, Tom talks very highly of the colourful Graceful Explosion Machine while Mat feels slightly let down by patch 1.3 for No Mans Sky… Probably because it’s not a Yakuza game, but we can’t be sure…

TMA 167 – On Game!

On a totally, 100% film discussion free podcast, the boys get back to the good stuff! Video m’games! Tom’s finally succumbed to the charms of JRPGs with Persona 4 (a Parry certified ‘game for planes’) and Xenoblade Chronicles X. Mat on the other hand (and to the surprise of nobody) has beaten Yakuza 3, so he spends his time telling you where it currently lies in his rankings, before he gets into the joys of the 4th instalment in the series…

TMA 166 – Full of Wonder

On this week’s TMA, Tom has finally done it! He’s finally got a full set on Retro Collect… If only it were the N64! It is of course, the Pokemon Mini! He talks us through that, Japanese N64 games and Super Famicom Fighting Games! Mat has perhaps unsurprisingly been playing a new Yakuza game (3) and gives us his feelings on how the ‘Year of Yakuza’ is going, before the boys get completely side tracked by discussions about film…

TMA 165 – Fun ‘n’ Games!

On yet another episode of Tom and Mat Attack, the boys do a little reflecting on the state of games. Mat’s Year of Yakuza brings him from 2 to Kenzan, a Japanese only release set in Edo Period of Japan’s history. The game has some questionable content by Western Standards that the boys pick apart and fan boy over Takeshi Kitano movies. Tom then has dabbled in some more N64 pick ups, that made him reflect over the purity of games that is becoming lost in an age of visceral experiences… Just to keep it light though, Mat’s been raiding in Pokemon Go and making some crazy money in Crazy Taxi Gazillionaire! What fun!

Tom and Mat Attack 161 – Merlot Trapezoids

On this week’s TMA, we cram all of our collective energy into for May into one podcast! There’s talk of chairs, games and a whole lot more besides! Mat’s been playing some Switch with titles like Tumbleseed and Kamiko, while Tom’s been playing old favourites like Need for Speed Undercover on the Wii, Ghost Rider on the PS2 and is still disappointed by Battlefront on the PS4… What a time to be alive!

Listen here.

Tom and Mat Attack 160 – Twisted Metal Underwater

On this week’s TMA, Tom has been back to Horsens and netting himself some titles like NFL BLITZ THE LEAGUE 2 (all caps), Critical Depth and Pitfall: The Lost Expedition Besides that, he’s been playing some Another World  Little Nightmares and falling out of love with Yooka Laylee. Mat’s still knee deep in Persona 5, but took some time out to walk around the world of What Remains of Edith Finch. It’s a good un!

Tom + Mat Attack 158 – 1, 2, Switch It Off

On this week’s TMA, the boys have been playing a plethora of gaming delights! Mat’s up to his elbows in Persona, so Tom’s had to get his beak wet with the likes of Mighty No. 9! The boys finally play 1, 2 Switch and are left wanting… Fortunately, not for too long as they then played Puyo Puyo Tetris! A brief discussion about the Vita library, the questionable nature of wanting a full set and the latest Nintendo Direct make it a long podcast, but hopefully you’ll agree, a good one!

Listen here.

Tom + Mat Attack 156 – 2B or not to be?

Well, we’ll just let that title sit there shall we? On this week’s TMA, the boys have slowed down on their gaming consumption. Tom’s been dabbling in a little bit of Candleman, WW2K15 and a little bit of Halo. Mat’s a little tired and so babbles about NieR, Mass Effect Andromeda and The Splatoon 2 Global Test Fire. Asides from that, the boys discuss their Dreamcast hit lists, the state of competitive gaming, the tale of Gopher Boy and how they apparently have nothing to talk about…

Tom + Mat Attack 155 – NieRest and Dearest

That’s the thing about the greatest games of this generation, they’ve often been brewing since the PS2! On this week’s TMA, Tom and Mat have both been playing some NieR, in Tom’s case, it’s NieR:Automata, while Mat dug up his 360 copy of the original NieR and took it for a walk around… In both cases, after taking that right turn at Drakkangard, both agree that the series is a good ‘un! After a brief discussion on the state of Japanese Games and Platinum as a studio, the boys crack out some more Zelda talk, before scrapping the bottom of the barrel with Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I Don’t Know and Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion!
