SEEEGGGGAAA! It's been a while since we've heard that iconic chime on this podcast, and it's back with a biggy. Sonic the Hedgehog is under the microscope this week and its brilliance (or lack thereof) has been an ongoing point of contention between Ashley and Chris forever. Maybe talking it out will allow them to put the issue to bed once and for all. Listen in to find out!

We mention the Sonic 3 and Michael Jackson saga during this episode having both previously watched the video below. Give it a watch and see what you think!

One whole year and 35 episodes and it all comes down to this - a brisk run through the Mushroom Kingdom! With this, our 35th episode, we turn one year old and it just happens to coincide with the recent release of Super Mario Bros 35, a game that sees a classic from our childhoods remixed and re-released. It's almost like someone from Nintendo tipped us off. On that note, did I ever tell you about my uncle?

Chris has been sick and it's fed into his choice of game this week... hair of the dog in the form of 1997's Theme Hospital! It's a game not without a few minor ailments itself, but is it worth playing again now? Listen along to find out!

This week we have the Sega Master System's premier ninja game, The Ninja. Imaginatively named, we know, but don't judge it too harshly until you've heard how great it actually is! If the game itself doesn't float your boat, maybe listen to find out how it was close to dragging Ashley into the criminal underworld.

That's right! Chris and Ashley are joined this week by Ben Ward and Dan Marshall of Size Five Games to discuss their latest adventure, Lair of the Clockwork God - although, for some reason, they all but insisted on telling us how to burn books and punish tabloid television listings for bad behaviour. We tried our best to keep them on track. Have a listen and see how we did!

To celebrate the release of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2, Ashley has decided it's about time he gets Chris on the Pro Skater hype train by treating him to the delights of the second game in the well-loved series. Can Ashley convince him that there's merit to spinning around on a plank with wheels to score massive combos? You'll have to listen to find out!

In a hideous attempt to try and steal Mario's thunder, Chris has done the dirty and followed up our Mario with a Sonic! Not just any Sonic, though. No, sir, this week we're talking Sonic Spinball, the only Sonic to fully embrace its nature and go full pinball.
