Another year has passed all too quickly, and the team find themselves not only staring down another year, but it's another decade too. To psyche themselves up for what the future may bring, Matt, Andy and Ali spend some time looking backwards on what surprised and disappointed them in 2019. As a bonus (or simply a way to fill more airtime if you're being cynical), they also had a think on what from the last ten years has made them coo with delight and groan in anguish.
In this episode of the Codec Moments Podcast you'll hear:
- Gushing over releases in 2019
- Ranting about Stadia
- Whether Andy can think of anything older than a few days
- If the Switch has sold more than the PS4 (it hasn't)
- How many copies of Skyrim Matt has owned
- If Ali is an Xbox fanboy (he is)
- Which games lit up our year

Another month goes by, the night's are drawing in, it's getting cold, and it's nearing the end of the year... which means we've been tucked up playing games rather than recording podcasts. Two of us managed to emerge from our sofa's though and have checked out how October's Codec Momentum entrants have performed. Plus, we finally got around to discussing what we think of GRID and Death Stranding.
Listen to this month's Codec Momentum update to find out:
- Who's missing from the team line up
- What we honestly think about Codemasters latest racer
- Is Death Stranding intriguing?
- If the leaderboard has changed since last month
- How WRC 8 plays
- What the December bonus points will be for
- and who won the monthly prize draw

We've been playing Control... lots and lots of Control. So much that we've had to spill our guts and make a podcast about everything that happens in the game that made us go WTF! This is true spoiler territory, so listen at your own discretion (or go and play the game, then come and listen).
In this podcast you'll hear:
- Major spoilers for Control
- Too much about documents and backstory
- Lots of censor beeps
- Redacted and the redacted
- Our theories on the protagonist Jesse Fayden
- What we thought of the redacted in the redacted when you redacted with the redacted
- How it encouraged us to keep exploring the Oldest House
- Why Ali isn't with us for this one
- and redacted.

We know, we know. We promised a cheap and cheerful clips montage podcast a couple of weeks back and failed to deliver. Well fear not intrepid listener, here it is! As a way of celebrating the 6th birthday of Codec Moments, Andy, Matt and Ali spent some time in the podcast archives rummaging through the episodes to find their favourite bits. Be prepared to listen to unfamiliar theme tunes, poorer quality audio, and Brian singing (if you remember who that is). Stayed tuned to the very end to hear a couple of special announcements about August.
In this 6th birthday episode of the Codec Moments Podcast, you'll be taken on a trip down memory lane with:
- Songs licensed for games
- Jennifer Hale
- Far too much Hitman
- Not enough Metal Gear Solid
- Flat packed boat... need we say more?
- Corpsing
- Quizzes
- and more!

What's up!? We promised a birthday episode this week, but that hasn't panned out exactly as we planned. In it's place you're getting something that might be more interesting anyway - an interview with Greg Chun who stars in the Yakuza spin off, Judgment. WARNING: there are some minor spoilers in this interview. Don't get used to this type of quality output, we'll be back with the cheap clips show next week as originally planned.
Listen to this episode of the Codec Moments Podcast to hear Greg Chun talk all about:
- How he got the role
- What his favourite lines are
- Is the Judgment script challenging in terms of timescale
- If he's played the previous games
- What's the reaction been to his performance
- and more.

This week's podcast was inspired by the upcoming Wolfenstein: Youngblood with the inherent co-op being a big selling point of the game. We intended to talk about it at length, but got slightly sidetracked by a couple of things: 1.) Ali's PC decided to update itself and not be available for recording; and 2.) Andy couldn't stay for the full length of the podcast. At least this meant that we could try out the drop-in/drop-out podcasting features we patched in a few weeks ago. Heading off on a tangent we talk about the Far Cry series (and New Dawn in particular), LEGO games, Battlefield, MMO's and a whole lot more. There's even a mention of Wolfenstein: Cyberpilot too... but that's nothing to do with co-op gaming.
Listen to this episode of the Codec Moments Podcast to hear all about:
- What we think about co-op gaming
- How Wolfenstein: Youngblood might use the co-op mechanic
- What Andy's daughter thinks 80's dancers are
- If Ali actually manages to stop Windows from killing his machine and manages to join in
- The Far Cry series... at length
- Ghost Recon's tactical play
- Co-op in racing games
- and more!

In the aftermath of May's Assassin's Creed bonus mayhem we thought June might be quite quiet... we were a little bit wrong. #Finishers, 100% Completions and new players feature in this months update, as well as what Ali and Matt have been playing instead of clearing their pile of shame.
In this episode of the Codec Moments Podcast you'll hear:
- What the latest changes to the leaderboard are

- Why Andy's making weird sounding sandwiches
- What the team think of Leisure Suit Larry
- Who's won the gaming voucher for this month
