Settle down students, class is now in session!  Dean Aaron and Professor BRENT are schooling you this week on ARG Presents!  The subject?!  The V-TECH SOCRATES!  Crack open your history books as we look at the past of the Socrates, then we study it's anatomy, before finally graduating into the games themselves.  In first period, it's time to work out that brain in Memory Mania, brother!  Then, it's time for art class as we delve into CAD Professor!

It's CHAT CHOICE week on ARG Presents, and the Chat has chosen the AMSTRAD CPC line of computers for us to play games on!  After a quick recap of Amigathon 2020, we dive HEADFIRST into two vastly different games!  Ponder the  bizarre isometric world of DOPPLEGANGER, the leap HEADLONG into the unapologetically arcade inspired budget game, The Island Of Dr. Destructo!

It's MicroProse week here on ARG Presents, and we have two games featured that couldn't be more different!  After we chat about MicroProse and it's incredible back catalog, we cover Floyd Of the Jungle on the Atari 8-bit computers and the Commodore 64, and then we surf the matrix as a VAMPIRE in Bloodnet for the Amiga and DOS machines!
