  • Shadow of the beast, when they said old games were hard, they were not lying with this one. Originally released on the Amiga, I played the mega drive version and it did not pull any punches.

    I am joined this week by Jake from the Press B to cancel podcast.

    Will we both finish this game? No chance.

  • Sometimes art can surprise you, it can make your brain do things you did not think were possible. In this case, making a game seem 3D when it wasn't at all. We are talking 3D Battles of World Runner for NES. Captain N from the Retrotopia podcast came with me on a game which we run.....a lot.

  • Resident Evil 5 is back in the media again thanks to IGN. Gamergate 2.0 is here....although we didn't want it. I decided to go play Resident Evil 5 and give my thoughts on the matter and the physics of some of the....assets.

    Dave McG who has been dubbed my Master System guy is back and I am grateful he agreed to play this.

  • Grab your sword, shield and staffs, it is time to go back to the world of Dragon Quest.....Warrior....again. Dragon Quest 2 which was released for the NES is often considered unbalanced by many for one particular area of the game. I wanted to see what all the hub hub was about. This week, I am joined by Chris Coplien from the Retro Hangover podcast, who played this kicking and screaming.

  • Alex Kidd....for years, I thought it was Alex the Kidd. I played this a lot as a kid and it horrified me. It came free with the Sega Master System and was Sega's attempt to make a mascot.

    Making their debut to the show is Dave McG who has been dubbed my Master System guy.

  • There are some games I love, there are some I hate. This is definitely one I hate, Breath of Fire for the Super Nintendo. A lot of people have told me it is a great game full of charm and an RPG for the ages. My guest, Captain N thinks so, where he goes to bat and tries to survive on that hill of us. Despite my feelings towards Breath of Fire, we had a lot of fun recording this episode and I hope you enjoy it too.

  • Tekken 8 has just been released to postive reviews, so I thought what better time to discuss me some more Tekken. This week, myself and Jake Macauley, are talking about Tekken Tag Tournament, a release title for the PlayStation 2. Some call it just an upscaled Tekken 3....and....that game was awesome. Namco had a classic in this one for sure.
