The planets aligned. The Mayan prophecies were proven true. All four Ultimate Controllers of Rock, Paper, Shotgun gathered together in one echoey lounge to create an electronic wireless show for the ages. Led by your tweeted contributions we discuss the highest matters of the day in a manner suited by fine gentlemen.

Jim and John gather once more to discuss PC games. With their voices.

Alec, Quinns and Kieron gather together to talk all things PC Gaming and/or feel bad. Topics include Gridrunner Revolution, Borderlands, Superhero Games, what achievements are for, Space Hulk and a load more. ACTIVATE EARS!

Okay, okay, you can stop the email campaign, the angry letters in the post, the furious sky writing - there's a new podcast. Join Jim and John as they attempt to upset every listener from the young to the grumpy, while almost discussing videogames on a few occasions. Of course your Twitter questions fuel our rampant discussion, and indeed our dreadful manners.

It's time again! Quinns and Kieron talk about stuff and things. Stuff and things include Batman, AI War, Champions, Space Hulk and stuff and things. It's recursive like that.

Imagine a world where there was a new Rock, Paper, Shotgun Electronic Wireless Show to listen to. Imagine harder! You made it happen! Jim and John teleported into the RPS under-sea bunker to record an episode of game-based chitter. With your tweets much frivolity occurs, in what is unquestionably the most edited podcast of all time. Plagued by knocks at the door, madmen strimming outside the window, helicopter attacks and an earthquake, a lot of fun is to be found seeing if you can spot the concealed gaps.

A million hellos, and fifty welcomes to a new podcast. Jim and John (or "Jihn" as the tabloid press now call them) gathered their arms and legs together and produced a brand new audible recording. And yes, this time it is indeed audible! There's no rational explanation found in science or myth for why the last one sounded like bad dogs, but it's back to its usual just-about-good-enough standards. In fact, this week the audio quality is so high you can detect every microscopic creak from John's creaky chair. This is good. No, it's good.

In a Twitter Questions Special, the lusciously industrious pair take your queries upon themselves and proffer responses to invigorate and delight.

Well crap. Every few months the Podcast Gods demand a sacrifice lest they destroy the Earth, and sadly it befell this week's podcast. Jim and John gathered in their usual stylish fashion to create a beautiful new podcast for you, created something magnificent, and then discovered after that it sounded like it had been recorded over CB radio at the bottom of a bin. There's no rational for this. There's no logic. Same setup as always. Horrible quality. So, we're putting it up anyway, as our voices <em>can</em> be clearly heard, but with our sincere apologies. (Although I think it's still better quality than the first few recorded on Kieron's dictaphone, so it's all about perspective.) Should you be willing to listen through the muffle you'll hear us discuss the role of art direction in games, favourite gaming soundtracks and ponder the potential for a unified gaming platform.

What ho! A podcasting we did go. And a merry old blah blah something. Jim and John squeezed into the RPS telephone box to record a new podcast, where we not only mentioned subjects, but then went on to discuss them. Amongst that which exited our mouth was the nature of open world gaming, easter eggs in The Dig, why Bookworm Adventures was great, and what defines an MMO.

Alec and Kieron, together, as nature intended. Staring out the window and discussing those ever-popular computertronic entertainogames.
