The Video Games Show

Summary: The Video Games Show (or VGS for short) is a weekly gaming industry news podcast hosted by Rich Bergin, Nick Kraftor and Greg the Engineer. While there are plenty of podcasts out there that deal with games themselves we take a closer look at the companies and people behind those games and what they are doing. News isn't the only thing we do though, we bring you reviews of the latest games, interviews with industry hot-shots and take special care to interact with our audience via email and our website. Rich and Kraft have over 50 years of gaming experience between them and VGS itself is over 8 years old! Tune in every Thursday when new episodes hit the net.

 VGS Show 403 - On the Bombed Out Road (5.27.13) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:31:38

WARNING: This episode of VGS is UNCENSORED, do not play it around kids and those sensitive to profanity.  You've been warned. You read it right, it is another On the Road episode of VGS, as well as a Bombed Out episode of VGS wrapped up in one.  Since The U is closed for Memorial Day, Kraft & Rich hit the road and visit all three STL area V-Stocks because there is a sale and you know how much the VGS crew loves V-Stock.  As we travel to each of the three stores, Kraft & Rich dive into all the news relating to the Xbox One, PS4, and Wii U as they try to figure out if any of the three are worth caring about.  Enjoy.

 VGS Show 402 (5.13.13) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 54:15

Short episode this week due to Kraft being sick and having finals this week, but an episode nonetheless.  Listen in for News, Emails, Would You Rather, and how Rich renders Kraft speechless.  All this and more on this week's VGS.  Listen now, repent later.

 VGS Show 401 (5.6.13) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:31:09

Fill in the blank:  This week's VGS can only be described as __________.  We talked about latest pile of _____ Microsoft had to offer, as well as EA's latest _____ Sims game and other ________.  We had reviews, Would You Rather, Emails and creamy ________.  All this and more ______ on this week's VGS.  Listen now ________, repent later.

 VGS 400 After Party (4.29.13) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:09:24

Well, after leaving it all on the ice with VGS 400, Rich, Kraft and Doc Brown throw a good ole fashion after party that has nothing to do with games.  Seriously, the Would You Rather is the only regular segment on this show.  Oh yeah, the gong died.  Listen now, repent later.

 VGS Show 400 (4.22.13) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:51:12

It's freakin' VGS 400!!!  No description needed, just listen!!!

 VGS Show 399 (4.15.13) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:12:12

What better way to spend the last show before 400 than our favorite home away from home, a GameStop midnight launch.  Join in the fun with Rich and Kraft as we help count down to the midnight release of Injustice:Gods Among Us.  In addition to answering the random questions of people that didn't seem to understand we were recording a radio show, Kraft yells at douche-baggery, watching two different people get arrested in the parking lot across from our location, Rich drinks himself smarter, and all the other randomness that comes from doing a live show, we still manage to get in news, a review, and a live round of Would You Rather.  Enjoy as we count down to the epic 400th episode.  Listen now, repent later.  Sponsored by Nawgan Alertness Beverage (www.nawgan.com).

 VGS Show 398 (4.8.13) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:31:53

Well, show 398 got a bit rowdy at times, but it was the good kinda rowdy, not the bad kind where you end up in a country bar brawl.  In addition to all the usual business, there was lots of interaction with the chatroom tonight (another reason to be there when we record live Monday nights), we talked about show 400 a bit, and even discussed some favorite moments from the past.  All this, plus Darklight13 (Happy Birthday Elizabeth) chimes in with some reviews and Peter Rothchild stops by the studio.  Listen now, repent later.

 VGS Show 397 (4.1.13) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:29:14

Just another crazy week in teh VGS world.  Our show almost gets taken over...almost.  As we brave through the usual show bits, we find out what really makes VGS GM Keith Robinson upset, Kraft exploits this information, and Rich works on his dream of being a strip club DJ.  What else can we say that hasn't been written on the restroom walls?  Stop playing Bioshock Infinite for like two hours and listen in.

 VGS Show 396 (3.26.13) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:26:08

Even though we were unable to record in our usual studio and we were unable to record on the usual day, we did manage to get a show together this week.  What seemed like would be a straight forward VGS episode (and it is for the most part) hit a speed bump in the middle of the episode in the form of Rich & Kraft vs Doc Brown in an unexpected debate/fight/battle royale.  Even Rich had to do some bleeping when it was all said and done.  Anyway, listen now, repent later.

 VGS Show 395 (3.18.13) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:28:02

Just when you thought we had said everything that could possibly be said about SimCity, we find even more ways to rag on it.  Come join us for all kinds of fun, including the normal news, listener reviews, emails, and Would You Rather.  All this and we drop some details about show 400.  Listen now, repent later.

 VGS Show 394 (3.11.13) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:37:58

Sim-ageddon 2013: Kraft vs. Big Josh serves as the main event of what was dubbed VGS Fight Night.  In addition to that, we have a hate fueled rant by Rich concerning a certain company that sells audio products and an early edition of Would You Rather.  Find out who is the VGS Master Debater on this week's VGS.

 VGS Show 393 (3.4.13) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:25:59

Dragons...and more on this week's VGS.  We start out with an interview with Jeremiah Lee from Stupid Awesome Games, makers of Zombie House Blitz, then move into news, Ask Big Josh, emails, and close out with Would You Rather!  Bow Chicka Boom Boom!

 VGS Show 392 (2.25.13) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:36:31

Well, I hope you wanted to hear about the PS4 because that is about half the show.  The other half is filled with other news, reviews, emails, the return of Ask Big Josh, and the ever popular Would Your Rather... game.  So sit back, relax, and enjoy a big helping of VGS.

 VGS Show 391 (2.18.13) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:11:41

After four years of Kraft writing the show description, someone else (Rich) is finally doing it.  Makes sense since he was late getting here.  Anyway, once he arrived we did our usual bit of news, had many reviews and wrapped with our new favorite sagment, Would You Rather.  All this and more on this week's VGS.

 VGS Show 390 (2.11.13) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:35:19

PS4?  Xbox 720?  Who's going to be the winner?  Maybe both?  Probably neither.  Join us as we sift through the rumors and realize that we actually agree with Gamestop on some issues... (I know, right?)  Stick around as we get to emails and Rich reviews the new Devil May Cry game.  All this and more on this week's rant-laiden Video Games Show!
