Really Liked Weekend confirmed and right now the host of that is doing his own solo show which has been decent so far.. although I do prefer a group debating games rather than just one.

At least Garnett seems like a pretty reasonable and likeable guy.

Garnett on Games is the name of the show.

Is that on itunes yet?

I'm honestly not sure. I just listen to it. I think it is though as I'm pretty sure he mentioned iTunes reviews.

Dont be at yourself

I'd love a podcast in the style of Kermode (before they disappeared up their own arses) or Empire, but 99% of any I listen to are intolerable, jocular rubbish.

Citizen Game is probably the pick of the bunch, although it's very infrequent.

Eurogamer.net is alright, although it does drift into 'humour' a bit too much.

IGN UK is half-decent. The host keeps the show on the road, but some of the contributors are terrible.

Wired's Gamelife Podcast is my favourite gaming podcast at the moment.

I have a couple of car journeys over the weekend, and I'll give Garnett's new one a spin (I really liked Weekend Confirmed).

I listened to WC as well as when he was on 1up. I like his podcast style, especially the focus on discussion. However at times his over indulgence in crude toilet humour gets too crass even for a juvenile mind such as myself. I remember one show when I kept referring to games as whether they were "the girl I want to f*** or the girl I want to marry" and by the end of the show I just wanted to beat him to a pulp. That said, he is a good host.

Playstationer.net just started one but haven't listened to it yet. They ate a good site on facebook so will give it a listen.

My current games podcast list is:

The Joystiq Podcast
IGN UK
Nintendo Voice Chat
The Game Informer Show
WIRED's Game Life
Garnett on Games (not as good as Weekend Confirmed - you need a discussion rather than a monologue)

Randall Floyd

Matt Lees puts up one fairly regularly.

Sorry for the bump. Just wanted to mention my my gaming music podcast BitNote has been going for quite some time: bitnotefm.com I play all the games I talk about, and sometimes have special episodes where I interview people or devote an ep to various topics. It's on iTunes, and on Twitter at @bitnotefm
