List of Consolevania episodes

Consolevania is a Scottish internet television with a magazine format, dedicated to video game reviews, gaming features, and comedy sketches based on gaming culture. The show's format was adapted for mainstream television as the BBC Scotland show videoGaiden, featuring the same creative team, while episodes of Consolevania continued to be produced and distributed online as time permitted.

History[]

The show began production in early 2004, and episodes were initially distributed for free on CD in the post to interested members of the RLLMUK discussion forum, before being made available as torrents and then as HTTP downloads from the show's website and mirror sites. The first two episodes of Series One were released in March and April 2004, with the rest of the series being released between August 2004 and April 2005.

The first and second episodes of Series Two appeared in July and August 2005, following which the show was put on hiatus while the creative team worked on the first series of videoGaiden. Episodes 3–7 were released at monthly intervals between March and July 2006. A second hiatus followed, during which the second series of videoGaiden was made and broadcast, and the eighth and final episode of Series Two was finally released in February 2007.

Series Three began in the summer of 2007, and four episodes (as well as a lost episode) were released between June and October 2007. Production of Consolevania then halted again for the third series of videoGaiden (December 2007–March 2008). In late 2008, the show's creators experimented with a new distribution method, making new reviews and sketches available on the show's YouTube account before releasing compilations of these items as episodes in the usual manner. However, this proved to be a short-lived experiment: equipment problems and the creative team's growing disenchantment led to the end of the original run of Consolevania in January 2009.

After an eight-year hiatus, and following the release of a fourth series of videoGaiden in 2016, a new series of Consolevania, based on a subscription model, was announced at the beginning of 2017. New episodes have been made available to the show's Patreon subscribers on a monthly basis, from February 2017 onwards. Series Four concluded in November 2017 and was followed by a Christmas special. Series Five began in January 2018, and Series Six (a shorter series of themed episodes) in January 2019. Following a trailed change to the series format, Series Seven began in August 2019. The most recent series, Series Eight, is the longest to date (at 22 episodes), having started just before the COVID-19 pandemic imposed further changes such as the livestreaming of episodes on Twitch.

24 episodes (one of which is currently missing) were produced during the show's original 2004–09 run, while 58 episodes have been produced so far for the second run (2017- ), making a current total of 82.

After this episode was released, an announcement was posted on the Consolevania website's news page stating that the Sponsors had terminated their relationship with Ziggy Springsteen, and that all rights to Consolevania had reverted to the original owners. Zack Eastwood made several appearances on the third series of videoGaiden, which entered production shortly after this episode was released.
21	5	"Lost and Found (Episode 3.5)"	n/a	unknown
Notes: This episode of Consolevania is currently missing. In an attempt to reflect the in-story developments of Series 3, in which Rab and Ryan would go underground and struggle with the Sponsors for control of the show, the episode was recorded to a single VHS cassette, which was then taped to the side of a bin by the riverside in Glasgow. A hint that this location was significant was placed at the end of a redubbed Halo advert which was released on the Consolevania YouTube channel on 12 September 2007 (see episode 3.7). The production team intended for one of the viewers to spot the hint, retrieve the tape, and upload the recording to the internet. The cassette was apparently collected, but the episode has never appeared online. A single short excerpt from the introduction (viewable here) is the only material retained by the production team.

Two segments produced as part of Wave 1 but not included in this episode were eventually included in episode 3.7 (see below).

Only four videos (the intro, Pop!, Andy Ben, and the Fallout 4 review) were uploaded before production ceased in December 2008. A full-length episode was eventually released via YouTube on 3 April 2018, consisting of the four original segments, as well as two segments (Checkin The Forums and the Persona 4 review) which had been completed but not uploaded in 2008, and four segments which were not originally intended for Wave 2: the two Independents Day segments (released as part of Wave 1, but not included in episode 3.6), the Halo 3 advert (originally uploaded to YouTube on 12 September 2007), and the Ziggy Springsteen video (an altered version of one which originally appeared on the main page of the Consolevania website during the period of the Sponsors' takeover in 2007^[1]). Kenny's Chat Show, which is trailed in the Wave 2 intro, was never filmed.

Gaming: Consolevania's Top Ten Games of 2008 (actually Rab announcing the end of the show and the reasons for its cancellation, over footage of the Top Ten Games) — part 1 (Grand Theft Auto IV, LittleBigPlanet, Left 4 Dead), part 2 (World of Goo, Persona 4), part 3 (Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, Lost Odyssey, Dead Space), part 4 (Fallout 3, Metal Gear Solid 4). Sketches: TEAM Christmas, Kenny's had enough of Christmas, the Ghost of Christmas Specials Past, the Ghost of Christmas Present, Andy Ben: gamers are dying, the Ghost of Christmas Specials Future, Rab and Ryan's Christmas present, series 4 simulation ended, Ziggy Springsteen's triumph. Notes: Final episode of the original (2004–09) run of Consolevania. This episode, numbering itself "3.6", retroactively incorporated Series Four Wave 1 into series 3 as episode 3.5. This retroactive numbering excluded the Lost and Found episode from 2007 and the material released in Wave 2 in late 2008, and has itself been superseded following the release of episode 3.7 in 2018. Final appearance of Joanne Daly.
