We apologise about the dip in audio quality about halfway through, unavoidably we had to go to a back-up recording.

So Halloween has come and gone for another year and we tentatively peek from behind the cushion, having survived the scares and frights of ‘Silent Hill’ and ‘Resident Evil 4’, to welcome you all to another ‘lapsed news’ show. Join Mark, Stuart, Lee and LGR alumni Mark ‘Chazzee’ Reay as they offer an update on games they’ve played recently as well as discussing a selection of gaming news stories of interest.
For reference, here is the superb Mark Brown video mentioned on the show - Super Mario 3D World's 4 Step Level Design | Game Maker's Toolkit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBmIkEvEBtA

Welcome listeners to our second horror themed special for Halloween, hot on the hellish heels of our Ballyhoo! SILENT HILL movie double-bill. Today it’s another entry in our Playlist series where the team play-through an older game and give our thoughts and feelings about it. On this episode Andy, Mark, Adam & Stuart fend off zombies and rescue Ashley in the critically acclaimed RESIDENT EVIL 4.
RESIDENT EVIL 4, known in Japan as ‘Biohazard 4’, is a survival horror video game developed and published by Capcom. The sixth major installment in the ‘Resident Evil’ series, the game was originally released for the GameCube in North America and Japan in January 2005, and in Europe and Australia in March 2005. The story of RESIDENT EVIL 4 follows the U.S. government special agent Leon S. Kennedy, who is sent on a mission to rescue Ashley Graham, the U.S. President's daughter who has been kidnapped by a sinister cult. Traveling to a rural area of Spain, Leon fights hordes of violent villagers and reunites with the mysterious spy Ada Wong.
WARNING: In case you’ve not yet played this game please be aware that spoilers abound as we traverse the numerous settings within the game and talk about the story-line as it unfolds.
During our discussions we reference a couple of YouTube videos and links for these are as below:

Welcome listeners to another instalment of Ballyhoo! Our spin-off series where we look at other forms of media connected to gaming properties. In celebration of Halloween we’re talking horror movies, so join Cev, Lee, Andy and community guest Nick @Laneit360 Jones as they visit the eerie town of Silent Hill as envisaged by filmmakers Christophe Gans (SILENT HILL, 2006) and Michael J. Bassett (SILENT HILL: REVELATION, 2012).
With the continuous shouts of “Sharon!” still ringing in our ears, what will we make of these silver screen adaptations of Konami’s famous survival horror franchise? Can we fathom the mystery of the desolate fog/hellish nightmare cycle which grips Silent Hill? We certainly couldn’t comprehend Sean Bean’s American accent. Precisely what is going on with Sharon/Heather/Alessa now all grown-up and the star? Hang on a second, isn’t that Jon Snow? All this and more as we review SILENT HILL and SILENT HILL: REVELATION. Happy Halloween!
WARNING: In case you’ve not yet had the (mis)pleasure of watching these movies for yourself, please beware spoilers abound as we revel in their oneiric haze and on occasion lose ourselves in the thick mist of their absence of logic.

Despite the world going crazy all around us Mark, Adam and the Stuarts have relocated to the LGR gaming bunker and maintain a relative sense of calm while discussing the games we’ve been playing. We also discuss some of the gaming news that came out this week and caught our eye. Any rumours of the LGR team relocating to the LGR International Space Station are completely unsubstantiated…
