ARG Presents

This week on ARG Presents, join Amigo Aaron and THE BRENT as we delve into the realm of games with driving controls..of some sort.  YES, it's STEERING WHEEL GAMES week on ARG, and this week we have two games that are SO different it boggles the mind.  First, pay homage to one of the granddaddies of racing games...brought home...it's Sega's Turbo on the Colecovision!  THEN, THE BRENT digs DEEP into his past for a game so campy and insane, it HAS TO BE RECOGNIZED!  I give you the man, the organization, the vehicle, and the game..all one word...HYDRA!

Welcome to the 150th edition of ARG Presents!  To celebrate this momentous occasion, not only will THE BRENT announce an awesome new contest, but we will also be having our FIRST look at the Sony Playstation!  It's All Japan this week game-wise as we check out the game based on the HIGHLY successful manga, TV, and film franchise Ghost in the Shell, and then we rent a room in the wackiest apartment building that Capcom could come up with, One Piece Mansion!

It's BIG episode 149 of ARG Presents, and we're back to the SUPER Nintendo for this one.  When you think SNES titles, two games stand out as MUST PLAYS, and so, to be popular, we cover the MOST POPULAR games!  So, with that in mind, sit back and relax as we discuss Archer MacLean's Super Dropzone and the timeless Michael Jordan - Chaos in the Windy City!

Whadda you get when Taiwan makes a British microcomputer!?  BAM, it's the Tatung Einstein, the subject of ARG 148!  This time out we take a look at this capable but obscure machine  and learn about what made it a powerful component of the golden age of British computing...BEHIND THE SCENES!  Then we dive into some wacky games, as we try out Escape from Merlin 8 and LAZY JONES!

It's High Score Week here on ARG Presents!  Join Amigo Aaron and THE BRENT as we discuss speed runs and high scores, and then settle in for some game that were made for High Score Challenges!  First it's the outstanding Atari 2600 port of the arcade shooter Gyruss, then it's cartoon time with the exceptional Nintendo arcade game Popeye!

As we all know, there's no better way to spend the holidays then alone, in a dive bar, playing grungy games with the barflies and boozers.  "But how can we do that when the bars are all closed?", I hear you ask!  Fear not, for ARG 146 is here to answer that question!  We have two bar substitutes here to help you through this difficult period!  First, THE BRENT goes WAY back with Electronic Table Soccer for the Odyssey 2, and then Amigo Aaron takes us into the bawdy, under the table world of BAR GAMES!

Welcome to BIG Episode 145 of ARG Presents!  Tonight, we  answer to age old question, what happens if you mush a 386 pc and a Megadrive together?!  Join the boys for a look at one wacky amalgamation, the Amstrad MEGA PC!     After some old fashion book learnin' on the Mega PC, we dig for some gems as we try out Sink or Swim and Links: The Challenge of Golf!

Hello, friends!  Welcome back to another ARG Presents!  This time out, we get crazy with the multiplayer and talk some FOUR PLAYER GAMES!  Remember back in the day when you could see and HANG OUT with other people, crowded around an arcade machine or console?  We do, and we pick a few of our favorites!  Join Amigo Aaron in some castle smashing goodness with Warlords, and then it's BIG truck action DOWN IN THE MUD with THE BRENT and IRONMAN Stewarts SUPER OFF ROAD!

There's a big fight feel this week on ARG Presents, and the combatants are chomping at the bit to bring the PAIN!  In one corner, a DOS offering from Amigo Aaron that will body blow you and make you PRAY FOR DEATH!  In the other corner, THE BRENT brings a good looking sensation with some nasty combos and a KILLER INSTINCT!  The odds are even...DEAD even!  FIGHT! 

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to tonight's featured attraction.  In one corner, an early riser and a reasonable fellow, THE BRENT!  In the other corner, in the red and white, a power house who's new to the game but shows potential, Amigo Aaron!  It's Atari ST VS Amiga 500...NUFF SAID!
