We take a brief moment between studying hard for the next GotY showdown to pray at the altar of Gaming’s Golden Idol: Geoff Keighley! Ben and Sanbone are easily pleased by the glamour and Punk would rather watch a 15 minute recap that scrapes off all the cheese. We cover each reveal, award and attempt at comedy. No Banjo-Kathree-ie but there is always next year. As always, thanks for listening!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year: GotY Season!! Pure Dead Grumpy Ben has been quoted several times claiming that 2025 has been “The Best Year in Gaming™” and the man isn’t normally wrong about anything. So we’ve invited Modern Escapism’s own Stig and Gadget to nominate the games we most enjoyed throughout the year. This will lead us to punching each other silly, bloody and sullen in a few weeks time for the Pure Dead Xbox Game of the Year Show. We also talk about the games we’ll be playing over the Holiday period in Tyg’s Christmas Game Section and share some of the biggest disappointments we experienced during the year in Videogames.

It’s barely an episode of Pure Dead Xbox this month as Pure Dead Grumpy Ben and Pure Dead Sanbonesolo try their best to start Pure Dead Gabe-ing with a geeking out session over the Lean, Keen: Steam Machine. Pure DeadbeatpunK gave them the cold shoulder. Toasty Beltline though. We did run through the Xbox Partner Preview at least. So at least there was a hint of Xbox snuck in there. The Pricks have been playing Dispatch, Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, CoD: Black Ops 7, Arc Raiders, Battlefield 6, Outer Worlds 2, Hades 2, Football Manager 26, Cloverpit and . . . My Little Puppy?

It’s the second birthday for Pure Dead Xbox and Big Willy Philly got us something special: Game Pass Price Hikes. We would much rather have got some Rog Xbox Ally Xs instead. Well, Pure Dead Punk and Sanbone would, Grumpy Gamer Ben already has his. We cover a solid month of bad news in both the Fiction and non-Fiction categories, of course talk about what we’ve been playing and try to keep our heads above water with the onslaught of Game Pass releases the past few months.

The Xbox ROG Ally has finally been given a price and sold out before Punk got a chance to even consider getting one. Ben is back from his carnal carnival cruise that was too lewd to be broadcasted on our show and Sanbone has a new kitchen. We cover the slim pickings of news this month, talk about what we’ve played and cover the Tokyo Game Show. The lovely Alex from The Mimic’s Veil Podcast joined us for the occasion, although Ben barely let him get a word in edgewise. PLAY ANYWHERE, MEOW!!
