A really busy week this week for both hosts, I comment on my brush with lady luck, toz found his time split between watching all the different sport on TV, playing Borderland and trying to get into F1 2012.

With plenty of gaming to talk about from Toz's continued Borderlands campaign and firing up Rock Band blitz to beat some of those scores listeners have posted over the last week, he also gets to play Fifa 13 and with my huge in depth review of Fifa 13 I may have convinced Toz to put a few hours into his Fifa 13 Ultimate Team.

We also have a huge bag of gaming and none gaming news and check out the controversy of Fifa 12 & Fifa 13 on the Wii it really is shocking, some good PlayStation stories and of course listeners questions adds up to a bumper show this week, so go and stock up on bacon and get listening to podcast no 173.

Well the big games are upon us, and we discuss both of them this week,  Toz tells us about Borderland 2 has it been improved and he finally lets us in on this secret of his high scores in Rock Band Blitz and he finally gets to try out the Flight Stick for Damage Inc.

I continue my love affair with Minecraft and delve more into Port Royale 3, I also talk about the demo of Fable - The Journey which landed in the marketplace this week. We have some interesting news on the new PS3 slimmer slim and a good discussion on all things NextGen. With more listeners question from Aceplantman, CoyoteClub, Shadzdatguy and Goalmachine and plenty of thought provoking discussion it can only be show 172 of the Cranky Gamers UK podcast.  ENJOY

A sparse week for news and cranky questions but luckily there is plenty of games to talk about this week, Toz has another bumper week of gaming and gets an early play of Torchlight 2 he also gives out tips on hitting those 5 stars on Rock Band Blitz, I discuss the two big demos that came out this week (Fifa 13 & F1 2012) and my continuing addiction to Minecraft.

In the news this week we talk about the two big stories that of the Wii U release dates and prices  and iPhone 5 we even do a comparison between that and the 4S.

All that and more in show 171 of the Cranky Gamers UK podcast.

It's been a scorching week so that could explain the lack of gaming news in this weeks show, still never mind we have loads more to talk about, Toz has had one of his busiest gaming weeks for a long time giving Rock Band Blitz a good caning.

I start back to work after my 6 week break but still manage to fit in plenty of gaming on the Xbox and 2 games on the PC, the first is Minecraft but what is the second one. I also dish out a few tips for the cool Sleeping Dogs to help you beat some of those difficult gangs and Toz ventures into the multiplayer of Borderlands with an old gaming friend.

We have a bumper crop of listeners questions to make up for the lack of decent news and this and more makes up show 170 of the Cranky Gamers podcast.
