Somehow it's been nearly a month since we treated you last to some fine Push Square Podcast Shenanigwans in the form of NieR: Automata and Horizon: Zero Dawn (Don't know what I'm talking about? Check this out). But we're back with what might just be our largest show ever when we get down and dirty with both Persona 5 and Mass Effect: Andromeda – you lucky things.
We also run through the main news points from the last few weeks, much of which coming hot off the press at the Rumour Mill so be sure to keep your pinches of salt handy. We then continue our newest section, Moan of the Month with a rant from Potter about the hype train for games leaving the station too early. We follow that with a brief chat about what we've been playing then round off the show, as always, with the great questions asked by you guys in our forum thread.
We love chatting with you and hearing your feedback about the 'cast, so please feel free to drop a comment in the forum thread, in the comments section below, or by emailing us at our fancy pants email: [email protected]. Better yet, if you're a tweeter on the Twittersphere then check us out @pushsquarepod, where we share silly GIFs, decide what the best kind of biscuit is, and all kinds of other Sheninigwans. We'd really love it if you could give that a follow.
Quick note: As with anything pre-recorded, a few bits regarding Destiny have since been confirmed and detailed, which is great news for Destiny fans (like me) and not so good for those listening to the 'cast, so apologies in advance for that!

Looking forward to listening! Thanks for the latest episode!
Not to sound like a negative nancy but how would a different game from a different developer and in a different genre make mends for the other game?
I'm going to pass. I don't care one bit about Persona 5 and have all ready got my fill of Mass Effect hate.
@Splat apart from seeing a couple of wonky videos I've not experienced any mass effect hate, I've heard about it but I don't go trawling the internet to try an read hate mail
Never expected to like Andromeda, so it being disappointing doesn't bother me one bit.
@Splat 'I don't care one bit about Persona 5'
That's a surprise, you obviously love your big games but denying yourself potentially the biggest PS release since TLOU is a bit misguided. Comparing ME to P5 is fair as the conversations are hugely important.
Looking forward to the podcast, will give it a listen tonight!
Had to pass last night, but just finished it today.
I'm not sure about games being announced early. I don't mind a teaser if the game is a few years off, just have something substantial next time you show it. Aside from how vitriolic people have gotten, I agree with the critiques for Death Stranding so far. Otherwise, it doesn't really get me angry.
Can't wait till I have some time to listen. Probably tomorrow evening,! 😳
What is push square Twitter again?
