Podcast Description
7Bit Arcade is hosted by Ben Tyrer, Callum Alexander and Matt Mace, three students who are currently studying Journalism at Bournemouth Uni. And by studying, we mean shambling through. Each episode you can expect the biggest news to be discussed, features that will make you stroke your chin with excitement and the (yet to be) award-winning 7 Bit mastermind.

ExplicitEpisode 21 - Why this episode is like Mass Effect 3. | So after a few months of doing what we do best - ranting, raving, bickering, arguing... - the good ship 7Bit podcast is being towed into port, having it's sides scarped and it's engine tinkered with. That means - fans of bluntness - we have reached the season end. In this show, we have a look at Adam's Assassin Creed 3 preview, talk about the best ways to use a new Wii U - while trying to provide some insight - and for the final quiz of the week, Ben and Matt test their knowledge of gaming deaths. While we prepare for our next season, tweet @7bitpodcast or e-mail ben@7bitarcade.com to tell us what you want to hear from us! | 4 4 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 20 - Why we're more popular than Lady Gaga, Hotmail, the BBC, Bafta's... | The 7bit Arcade podcast rolls into the station yet again, bringing with it cautionary tales of cheating, the simulation games we would like to see and a brief over-view of the recent Bafta videogame awards. Before the train leaves the track, Matt pitches an idea for a game called Poo City, Ben tries to surgically remove his nostalgia goggles when it comes to Game (and fails) and Callum takes a simulation idea and makes it better.

ExplicitEpisode 19 - Why Basement Jack Scared Us For Life | This week on the 7Bit Podcast, we take a turn for the peculiar, as we take a look at free to play classics, a horror film this is so bad, it's... awful and the continued misery of Game. Ben faces a huge dilemma, Callum faces a huge coughing fit and Matt faces the difficult decision of deciding what to include in his own free to play game. Don't forget, you can get in touch with us via twitter (@7bitpodcast), like us on Facebook and why not leave a review for us on the iTunes store? | 14 3 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 18 - Why Dinosaurs Couldn't Use Crayons | Week 18 of the 7Bit Podcast has seen us overcame an illness, a problem with the studio and general adversity to make sure you have a podcast that you’ll cherish like a family member. We discuss dinosaurs using crayons, how we don’t understand the concept of a new IP, the departure of Peter Molyneux from Lionhead and… Mass Effect 3. Again.

ExplicitEpisode 17 - Why Callum Is Writing An Essay | On a day that exists only once every four years, the 7Bit podcast team swoop down from the mountain of assignments and gaming news that are distracting them to give you their biggest (possibly best) podcast yet! The Oscars are discussed - much to Matt's disdain - while the gang discuss adding zombies to games and the many problems that face enrolling in Limb Snappington College. On top of that, the quiz takes a turn for the face-plam as a glaringly bad error forces Callum into a fit of rage. Considering this is a free day, why not spend it in our company? | 29 2 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 16 - Why Fighting Talk Is Not For Us | Another week, another fantastic episode of the 7bitpodcast to wrap your ears around! This week, the cheap game of the week section (sort-of) returns, Matt and Callum give Ben some rather personal examples of Fighting and Trash talk in 24/7bit and our quiz takes a turn for the bizarre when Matt get's access to youtube. To cap it all off, we're giving away a copy of Tony Hawk's Project 8 for Xbox 360. To win it, tweet your favourite Tony Hawk memory to @7bitpodcast! The winner will be announced on the next show! | 22 2 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 15 - Why Ben can't keep track of what he's saying | Gather round everyone, for we have a brand new 7bit podcast for you, and this one is a doozy! Not only have we put in enough babble to make this our longest podcast yet – 1 hour and 20 minute fact fans – but as the title suggests, one of us had a tiny bit of a nightmare. You’ll have to listen to get the full extent of Ben’s riveting confusion, but we can tell you that the Vita is heavily discussed, along with the news that the Unreal Engine 4 is working on consoles that can’t be named. Callum offers up a quiz on launch games and Matt talks about joining the 100% club for AC: Brotherhood. | 15 2 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 14 - Why The Gang Is Fighting | Dark times are ahead for the 7Bit Podcast team this week, as Ben is accused of trickery and deception in the quiz. Before that though, the gang discuss Drive, Superbowl trailers, games that take inspiration from movies and the winner of last week’s Face/Off contest. Then the quiz opens up old wounds, but just how bad does it get? There’s only one way to find out… | 8 2 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Matt has been forced into reviewing Nic Cage films - which you can win by retweeting us on twitter! – Callum debates the news that Mass Effect 3 DLC is being given away with Mass Effect action figures and Ben discusses why he’s awful at gaming in 24/7bit.

ExplicitEpisode 12 - Why Easter Eggs are relevant in January | Another new, exhilarating and down-right delirious episode of the 7bit Arcade Podcast has reared its head once more.

As always, 24/7bit and the Quiz of the week are hotbeds of discussion and finger-pointing, as Matt Mace turns up a challenging quiz.

ExplicitChristmas Special - 7bitpodmass! | Ho Ho Ho, come join the gang for some festive frivolity as they down their egg nog and proceed to sum up the year in games and the year of 7bit. There will be laughs, analysis and good ol fashioned chop-busting as the 7bit Arcade podcast team wind down the year and get ready for 2012 as they discuss the 12 games of Christmas, the 7bitawards and shock each other with a super-secret surprise of the highest order.

ExplicitEpisode 10 - Why Nic Cage should buy us a pub | So, it's come to this. The end of season 1. It's been emotional for all of us, but don't fret just yet, as you've still got one more before we return with our Christmas specials. This week, we discuss the Capcom/Namco fight club, we take a gander at in-game advertising in 24/7bit and wrestling takes over as Matt and Callum rediscover their love for Smackdown. | 7 12 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 9 - Why The Pen is Mightier Than The Podcast | Lordy Lord, is this week’s episode of the 7Bit podcast a corker. We have insightful (rambling) discussions (semi-formed opinions) and hilarious witty conversations (laughing at no-no words) for you to sit and soak in. Matt decides that his pen is far more important than the podcast itself, leaving Callum and Ben to discuss the next generation of consoles in 24/7bit, Ben tries to argue about unnecessary multiplayer, but fails a little and this week’s quiz features special guest James Hibbard, host of Nerve Radio’s The Rock Show. We're like your best friends by now, so why not jump on and catch up with us! | 30 11 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Customer Reviews
Hilarious and entertaining
As someone who listens to a lot of podcasts at work, I can honestly say this is an up-and-coming show. A group of 4 lads (one of them with breasts) will tell you what they've been playing for the past couple of weeks, what you should be playing soon and hopefully make you laugh. Give it a chance, and if you enjoy it, make sure you rate so that it can become bigger and better!
Re-bootilicious
A great reboot to a great podcast.
Can't wait to hear more!
Irreverent and amusing
Anchored well against a tirade of abuse, the 7bitArcade podcast holds up well with a nice professional feel and plenty of British humour to keep things ticking along. Well done!
