Kingy is joined by Almac and Drisky as they cover the games in Newsfield's incredibly popular ZX Spectrum magazine, CRASH.  CRASH at this time of year always had a bumper edition Christmas special and it is with issue 12 (Dec '84/Jan '85) that the lads celebrate the games that were reviewed.   Games featured in episode: Astronut - Software Projects Backpackers Guide to the Universe - Fantasy Software Boulderdash - First Star Software Cyclone - Vortex Software The Fall Guy - Elite Knight Lore - Ultimate Lode Runner - Software Projects New Cylon Attack - A 'n' F Software Pole Position - Atarisoft Potty Pigeon - Gremlin Graphics The Runes of Zendos - Dorcas Software Skyranger - Microsphere Underwurlde - Ultimate      

When it comes to Sega's Naomi system, it's easy to think of games like Crazy Taxi, House of the Dead, Monkey Ball, Virtua Fighter etc.  And as amazing as these games are, they've been spoken about to death on many podcasts, including our own.  So, most of our listeners know Drisky and Kingy by now, they like to dig a little deeper in this rich catalogue of amazing arcade games.   Games in this episode Illmatic Envelope Airline Pilots The Maze of Kings Wild Riders Tokyo Bus Guide The King of Route 66  

Alma, King and Drisky join you for this Halloween Spooktacular, where we discuss the fantastic listener meetup in October and what it was like.  We also go through all the high scores competition for the chosen games and the winners. Then, as it's Halloween, we discuss some spooky-themed games at Arcade Club, which many of you can play at home to join in the fun. So, can you beat our weekend scores?  Are you planning to play any spooky games for Halloween? Come join us and enjoy the spooky festivities.
