In episode #120 of San Antonio’s favourite videogame radio show:

++ Figuratively billions of features from all our favourite contributors, including special season-closing songs from Derek Williams and The Doyouinverts

++ Steven Poole reveals the three rules every good troll must follow

++ Season 5 ends

But don’t worry, because we’ll be back soon. There’ll be bits and bobs on the podcast feed in the meantime, and do keep listening to Resonance because it’s excellent. We’ll see you in March. Bango!

PS: Music on #120 was from the brilliant little scale and Derris-Kharlan. Find them, like so much of the music we play, at 8bitcollective.com.

PPS: Download the MP3 here.

Thanks to listeners for alerting me. NO THANKS TO THE BIKE SHOW / EUROGAMER / SHADOWY SABOTEURS FOR MAKING THIS HAPPEN.

Also in #119:

++ Two guests — an OLL veteran, and an OLL newcomer

++ News on Ste’s contribution to the Global Game Jam 2010

++ And Craig The Rage returns, albeit in a slightly muted form

In fact, sorry about the overall sound quality today, which is partly because we didn’t soundcheck, but mostly down to a problem with the Resonance recording device thingy. And sorry for the delay. There was an actual power cut while I was uploading last night. I have never had a power cut before. Funny how these things happen just as Eurogamer start a podcast, isn’t it?

Music on #119:

4Mat – Matryoshka
Smiletron – BRKtime

See you next week!

Apologies this is somewhat late. Will explain on the show next week (it’s nothing really exciting, just something else Ste’s been working on).
Episode one hundred and eighteen of One Life Left features the following content:

++ Reviews Editor Taliah, who recently turned nine, discussing boyfriends
++ Our consider response to Eurogamer’s new podcast
++ Lots of framing, just like this

See you next week.

(Still looking for a web designer / webmaster. Enquiries to the show’s address, please.)

*Possibly.

It’s 2010 and hey, we live in the future. A future where:

++ Halo appears on the PS3,

++ It’s acceptable to discuss the abilities of Ron Jeremy on a videogame radio show,

++ and Music videos featuring rain are always the best.

The future, ladies and gentlemen, is now.

Apparently our shows are going to be in the national radio archives or some such now. Our ancestors are going to be mortified.

Music on #117: Spoon by Coda, Helium Stare by Downstate and The World Can’t End Today, It’s Already Tomorrow In Australia by Rhodo4.

PS: We’re actively looking for someone to help us run the OLL website. A ‘webmaster’, if you will. If that’s you, get in touch.

Anyway I’m mainly here to update you all with the final part of my A Christmas Carol Market Economy trilogy. Many of you at the party were eager to know how it all ended.

Download part 3 here

And if you need a recap, here’s the earlier parts:

Download part 1 here

And as a special Christmas bonus, here’s a couple of other Christmas related FME productions. The second one being a particular favourite of mine.

And remember any unwanted games I’ll be happy to take off your hands for free. Oh and to any of you who wanted details of buying CDs of my music just email me at derek at onelifeleft.com for details.

Merry christmas!

Also in #116:

++ Ste returns from 10 days of drinking, manages to just about hold things together

++ Simon loses it in the letters section

++ Ann comes up with a new catchphrase

Music in Episode 20 all comes from Overclocked Remix, who celebrated their 10th anniversary recently. Happy birthday!

One last thing: come to the Christmas Party. You’ll regret it if you don’t.

Elsewhere it’s business as usual. We’ve features, chat, a joke (of sorts), music and no Ste: he’s drinking in a holiday camp once again. We secretly suspect he’s a Redcoat . And when we say “secretly” we now mean publicly. No Ste means horrific desk errors, due to a the schoolboy one of not actually numbering the tracks on the CD. Our Twitter Poll encouraged us to leave the mistakes in. Blame the listeners, not the broadcasters. You know Chris Moyles records his shows a month in advance, don’t you?

Hey, write us: We love your letters. But if that’s not enough, we sometimes reward those who take the time to correspond with free things – this week, we have PSP Minis D-Cube Planet and Circles as prizes, thanks to the kindness of developer GameShastra. And as we – or Michael – call it: these can soon be enjoyed on the PS3. It would have been another One Life Left EX-EX-EX-excusive if the podcast had been up on time.

Next week: the team reunite, for our last show of the year. And most importantly, the last show before the OLL Christmas knees-up (Friday December 18th, from 5:00pm, with a live show at 8:00pm. The Blue Posts, Rupert Street, Soho). It will be literally unbroadcastable: hear it while you can.

See you soon.

Lots of love

This week they’re joined by another special guest. It’s one of the secret rulers of the games industry: Steve Owen from Gamespress. Press, you see? Press and gang. Press gang!

Right. Rather than spoiling the rest of the episode, which features a bonus Craig the Rage that wasn’t in the live show, here are three things you should remember to do in December:

1) Come to our Christmas party

2) Come to our Christmas party

3) Come to our Christmas party.

It’s on Friday 18th December, at The Blue Posts in Rupert St, Soho. It’ll be the last show of the year and we’ll see you there.

Music in #114 from the Depreciation Guild. Find us on Twitter / Facebook. Oh, and tell your friends! See you next week.

Yeah, dad’s away this week, so it’s happy fun party time at OLL Towers, with a special celebration in aid of the 50th issue of ONM, in “shops” now.

Bottles of Blue Nun are downed, cigarettes are smoked out through the toilet window and a couple are discovered upstairs amongst the coats. CALL YELLOW PAGES TO TIDY UP!

Aside from a record – and show – breaking two desk errors, it’s actually business as usual at One Life Left. There are only two songs, mind, so fans of The Killers will have to wait until next week, when we *think* Ste is off again.
