Victor has been to see the biggest personal arcade collection in the country, Shaun has been playing Space Harrier on a mahoosive screen and we've both given the bizarre lickle game Marchen Maze a wee bit of love, but plopped off the edge a lot.  In the game too.

Vulgus Vulgaris - A common shooter or classic gem?  WE DECIDE!

Some trigger fingers galore here, while still enjoying a simple shooter. Some may even say pure (we say that) Shaun plays on mame, Victor plays a pcb with wonky roms...

Victor even managed to 'dodge' Dodgem, while Shaun gets a good score against the motherzaccers!

Oh yes! - An all time favourite of Victor's. We play little smurf like fellas, happily exploding sub terranean tomatoes and cretinous dragons with our wiggly pumps!

We have taken this oppurtunity to blast blocks at other blocks in space. It would have been rude not to.  It's a listener pick this time and it's a kinda upside down o vision Tetris thingy.  That's a technical explaination.

Death Race looks like it actually works! :) and stuff is coming on.

Victor has a mystery parcel from Kentucky to open on air!

Oh, here we are again!

A new year and new games to play from the arcade.  Er, no maybe not.  New games from 20 and 30 years ago!  I'll take that!

We have been giving 'Eyes' the eye this week as well as surviving another Christmas / holiday period.

You may have noticed that we look like a nerdy / mean version of Miami Vice in our advertising picture (above)
