Only three-and-a-half months late, it’s Sky Pirate Studios 2016 game of the year fiesta! At a feature length that would make Peter Jackson blush, the boys touch upon topics of utmost import, discussing the best water, food and ‘tude in the games of 2016, jumping from sponsor-to-sponsor all the while. In the ultimate race against time, will those crazy Sky Pirate hooligans be able to get to announce their games of the year before all their sponsors drop out? How many times will Max mention Overwatch? Will Jace stop fidgeting with objects that are obviously being picked up on his microphone? Find out in our season finale that listeners have been calling “a podcast”!
SPOILER WARNING: We talk Last Guardian from 44:30 to 48:00. We provide ample warning, but keep your ears peeled! We also talk about spoilers for Castlevania: Lord of Shadow at some point, but I don’t think you care about that really.

Our panel of gaming boys are feeling particularly positive today, with Jace praising Doom, Joey praising Overwatch, Kevyn praising bad mobile games, and everyone praising The Long Dark. However, the boys mourn this week’s absence of Max “Max” Damage, and respectfully pay tribute by making up funny games that call question to Joey’s dark past. Also apparently Jace has a stroke as his pitch becomes completely unintelligible.

The Sky Pirates celebrate their sweet sixteenth by talking about Overwatch, the triumphant return of Day Z, and the potential for a Dark Souls-esque Lord of the Rings game, before spiralling way off course into ramblings on Australian potato chips from the early 2000s, Harry Potter Game Boy games and Jace’s illustrious and infamous suburban hometown and local video store. The boys get back on track long enough to talk about Mouse Corp. before pitching games of a more dark, sinister intent, involving cyber-sickness, torture mini-game collections and sexy card games.

NOT A HOAX! NOT A DREAM! THIS IS SKY PIRATE RADIO! The Sky Pirates converge once again to talk with utmost secrecy about Everybody Loves Raymond, the Nioh Alpha, the Banner Saga 2, Kevyn’s Avengers Academy addiction, onion knights, and the Kafka-esque elements of mid-90s sitcoms, before they pitch some hot and trendy games about the lives of ghosts, medieval computers and communist mushrooms.
