Dear Eurogamer,

Get Martin on the Eurogamer ‘Parcast’. Shame that he won’t be on the IGN UK podcast anymore, but I listen to both anyway so I don’t lose anything – if he does some podcasting at EG.

Eurogamer Podcast, IGN UK podcast and Bombcast are now the only ones I listen to. Oh, Weekend Confirmed too. Love them podcasts. Dont have time for website reading as much nowadays.

Congrats! Used to read a lot of the “hobo”‘s stuff on IGN (that is, when I used to read IGN). One of the very tiny number of people who could actually write on that site.

Brilliant chap. Hope he keeps the beard.
