It's like a finely tuned machine... an F1 game gets released and Matt and Ali jump at the chance to talk in depth about it. F1 2019 brings a lot of changes with it that are mostly for the better, so what better topic for this week's podcast. Listen in for what they think, what has changed, and whether they still enjoy the same tracks year in, year out.
In yet another F1 2019 special you'll hear:
- What's new
- How the game plays with wheels and controllers
- If the F2 cars are challenging to drive
- Whether the AI rivalry translates well in the single player
- If multiplayer is loaded with A-holes
- and more

With Google's announcement of the Stadia coming later this year and how it could (potentially) revolutionise the way we consume games, the Codec Moments team got together to talk about the various services that are already on offer, and what the benefits and drawbacks are of each of the games services. Is there one that comes out on top? Are they all just part of a gamers repertoire? How much does it cost each month to subscribe to all of them. Matt, Ali and Andy discuss and debate what there is out there.
In this episode you'll hear:
How many titles there are on each of the games services
Whether there's one that's surprised us the most
Ali getting ultimately emphasised
A subtle Metal Gear Solid reference because we simply don't put enough of those out there
If any of the team have pre-ordered a Stadia
Why we need to revisit PS Now
Andy confuse Tuesday's and Thursday's
and more!

For the second year in a row, the Codec Moments team have recorded an E3 episode that hasn't languished in editing hell until September! Andy, Matt, Ali and Stu discuss their E3 predictions. Some are outlandish, some sound like they have been researched and some have already been announced in the week since the recording took place. The last sentence was lifted directly from the 2018 episode and still holds true today.
In this podcast:
- We talk about the studios and publishers attending E3 and what we might see presented
- Andy recycles the same notes on Splinter Cell he's been using for 5 years
- Matt gets pipped to the post on the new Crystal Dynamics Avengers game
- We discuss Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and have a lot of our speculation confounded by a reveal the day after we recorded

The Codec Moments team, just like the gaming industry, can't get enough of different zombie outings on their favourite platforms. We're here this week to talk about the co-op antics of World War Z, the solo escapades of Days Gone, and the bizarre and quite disturbing activities in Zankie Zero: Last Beginning (even though it's not got Z's, it has got clones coming back to life, so meh, close enough). If that's not enough to grab your shambling attention there's even a quiz that really very poorly attempts to link the dead-eyed trudge of consumerism with flesh eating monsters in a way that would make George A. Romero turn in his grave. Oh, and we even have chance to put out a long overdue interview from EGX 2018 about Heaven's Vault. Enjoy!
In this episode of the Codec Moments Podcast you'll find out:
- Why Andy can't lift his arms
- If Ali's played any more of The Division 2
- Who inspired who to read World War Z
- Why we're including a Game of Thrones reference in every episode from now on
- What's Swedish for zombie
- Whether Mortal Kombat 11 is any good for non-fighting game fans
- and a great interview about the development of Heaven's Vault
