Due to some technical difficulties, we are unable to bring you a new episode of Argue The Toss this week. Instead, please enjoy one of our favourites from the archives - a horror movie showdown, just in time for Hallowe'en (even if it was originally recorded in July 2018). We'll be back on schedule soon, and there'll be a brand-new episode for you in two weeks. In the long-awaited third installment of our "Completely Unseasonal Theme Episodes" series, this week Argue The Toss goes full horror with a double-bill of scary movies, four months from Hallowe'en. Chella and Drew have been to see A24's supernatural witch-based psychological horror slash family drama Hereditary, and unrelatedly, A24's supernatural witch-based psychological horror slash family drama The Witch. They now return to somehow try and find some common ground between these two movies. Which movie is the scarier? Which witch is most eldritch? Do the police exist in the world of Hereditary? Are epi-pens important to people with fatal allergies? And what is the appropriate response to a level 3 Witch Situation? One of these questions answered herein.…

Sam Barlow's Her Story brought FMV games out of the shadows and demonstrated that they could work, with careful casting and good writing. Telling Lies is a bigger budget version of Her Story, using the same mechanics, but adding more characters and some new features. Drew and Chella discuss the game, how it differs from Her Story and how it exposes their different playing styles.…

S5|E14: Marvel Phase 4: First Impressions, Also Star Trek 41:34

Spider-Man: Far From Home has brought the wildly successful third phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe to a close. Where can the franchise even go from here? Oh, Phase 4? Yeah, OK, that makes a lot of sense actually. Don't know why we didn't think of that. San Diego Comic-Con was last week and Marvel dropped the whole phase on us in a flurry of announcements, and the ATTeam, never the type to shy away from a very obvious choice of topic for the podcast, recorded a podcast on that topic, which - coincidentally enough - you can listen to from this very page. We've discussed every single announcement to a frankly believable level of detail. We've left no stone unturned, if you don't count the omissions made in the interest of brevity, or when discussing things we know nothing about. This is your one-stop, exhaustive deep dive for all the things we cared enough to talk about in the forty or so minutes for which we were prepared to keep talking on this podcast. Enjoy, to the extent that you do.…

Drew and Chella catch up to find out what each other have been watching this summer. Not the big summer blockbusters at the cinema, but indie films, a gameshow and a bit of Netflix. Drew discusses a comedy gameshow that demonstrates some interesting approaches to game design. And Chella looks at the new generation of teen comedy dramas, which manage to avoid the problems of classic teen films from the likes of John Hughes.…

Jordan Erica Webber joins the Argue the Cast Team to discuss the use of unreliable narrators in videogames. From the twist ending in games like Bioshock, to the deliberate use of a character with something to hide in Her Story, games like to employ this narrative technique with varying degrees of success.…

The ATTeam has analysed all the E3 2019 games from the press conferences and picked their favourites. Most people expected to be the year publishers held back their big announcements and waited for the new consoles we know are imminent. But that’s not how it went down. The list of E3 2019 games is pretty solid. Nintendo announced a new and Animal Crossing and there were some surprise entries in every press conference, alongside some familiar series sequels. With so many to choose from, the Argue the Toss team had a tough time whittling it down to the . But for the love of the listeners, they’ve done it.…

In a special episode, recorded at art and games festival, Feral Vector, nestled in a wooded valley in Yorkshire, England, the ATTeam chat to surreal LARP organiser and unstoppable indie game developer, Xalavier Nelson.

Post credit music, we also have some Feral Vector footage to give an insight into what this wild thing is all about.…

The new John Wick film is out this week and Mike Bithell recently announced that he's working on John Wick Hex, a game based on the films. This got the ATTeam thinking about films they'd like to see as games and how they would work. There's a tradition of movie/game tie-ins, but they're often lacklustre marketing opportunities, with the occasional gem, such as The Chronicles of Riddick. Drew and Chella discuss the films that should be games, taking us from time loop adventures to mermen.…

Get Out made a splash on the horror scene, in 2017, and that's saying something, as 2018 was also a pretty stellar year for the genre, with the VVitch, A Quiet Place and Hereditary all coming out. Regardless, Jordan Peele's follow up, Us, stars Lupita Nyongo and expectations are high. Fortunately, Peele doesn't disappoint and delivers another stunning social horror that leaves you thinking. Drew and Chella discuss the themes, the horror references and all the things, in this episode of Argue the Toss.…
