He also discusses his vital role on getting the legendary Gunstar Heroes released - which seemed to be destined for the bin!

In the last of our poor-sound-quality pods (is that a term?) the boys minus Dyl and plus Kev go on an Adrian-led journey through some of the strangest gaming peripherals ever made.

Like seriously, wtf?? So it's not a thousand but it's about twenty which is as ridiculous as its marketing. The PC Engine (as we'll call it here in the show notes) is a thing of wonder at Arcade Attack as none of us owned one. Why? We shouted "rise from your gwaaave" at Keith a lot and it worked! He's here to explain all to coincide with him finally getting ahold of Konami's mini version of the console. So let Mr B explain how the NEC/Hudson Soft partnership came about, what made the console so special in Japan and pretty much redundant everywhere else, what the most popular titles on it are, the crazy CD peripherals and what he made of the mini. We also discuss one of the most famous Kanye West myths of all time. Bonk, anyone? Fancy discussing this podcast? Fancy suggesting a topic of conversation?

Mortal Kombat 2 improved in every aspect from the Midway classic. We run through the fighting games development, backstory, the new characters (Baraka, Jax and Kitana) and our views on one of the best games ever made. Do we cover Mortal Kombat too much? Probably. But we love it so we'll keep on doing it mwahahahahahahahaaaa! MORTAL KOMBAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTT...two was quite the feat on arcade and home ports but how good was/is it? Rob's bringing the pain yet again as the boys wax lyrical about the game some say is even better than Street Fighter 2! Well, I don't say it but some do. Mortal Kombat 2 took all that was great about the first game and ramped it up to eleven. With new characters, moves and cool concepts, is Mortal Kombat 2 truly the best ever MK game ever made!? Lots of tales of the game's arcade birth and upgrades, the home ports, some juicy trivia and the team shouting a lot. What more could you ask for?

Ben Drowned, the Creepypasta story inspired by a haunted Zelda: Majora's Mask cartridge was a big hit among gamers and storytellers.

Ten scary gaming myths and urban legends that rocked the gaming world. We look at how the E.T. Atari 2600 game almost destroyed an industry and was dumped in a landfill. Can you play as Rebecca in Resident Evil 2? Did Killswitch, a game that uninstalls itself actually exist? And lots more stories to get your teeth into! *Warning - this podcast contains adult themes (LOL) so it's up to you to shield your offspring or those of a sensitive disposition. Or let them loose on the madness!* Adult theme jokes aside we're back! With another gaming myths podcast! I'd like to say it's because the first one went so well but it's due to the fact that Adrian found too many to fit in one! Ha ha! This week we tackle myths concerning games uninstalling themselves, a certain Final Fantasy VIII theory and what actually happened to those "spare" copies of the Atari E.T among many other weird and wacky tales. We also laugh at our own conspiracy theories. Fancy discussing this podcast? Fancy suggesting a topic of conversation?

We invited three of our mates from the other side of the world - ...Since Spacies (Brian); Sega Master Tim (Tim); and The Top Loader (Todd) - to do battle with us over the airwaves. Well, not quite... The boys join Ade and Dylan for a chat about SEGA, Nintendo, Brian and Tim working for the SEGA Hotline, what collecting means to us, why heart attacks are bad, Aussie slang (we're sure Adrian is NOT a drongo) and a few subjects we always cover on AA. Yeah, you know the ones! So sit back and enjoy a whopping two-hour chat with Australia's finest.

Faran Thomason worked across 3 of the largest video game companies of all time; Atari, SEGA and Nintendo. Faran shares some great stories including working on the Atari Jaguar, Mortal Kombat 3 and loads of insight on all 3 companies. This week's guest may be the only person we've ever interviewed who's worked for Atari, Nintendo and SEGA - the magic three! Faran Thomason kindly gave us some of his time a while ago for a text interview but we simply had to chat to him to get more of those stories out. Especially a treat for Atari Jaguar fans, Adrian talks to the producer, QA tester and level designer himself about Bubsy, Baldies, Cybermorph and the abandoned Jag version of Mortal Kombat 3 among many other lovely retro gaming stories about all three legendary companies. He also talks about making consoles in China, Black Lives Matter, what the Tramiels were really like and working with the legendary Lance Henriksen. Enjoy! Fancy discussing this podcast?

Why on earth do we do this to ourselves?! Ha ha! It's of course a pleasure every time! This week we tackle the Mortal Kombat Movies... Rob summons every ounce of strength to bring forward this critique of both movies with lots of trivia thrown in for good measure. One of the team is dragged along against his will (guess who) so it's up to the others to convince him they're both worth watching. Or not. Fancy discussing this podcast?

Enjoy our rundown of the top 25 SEGA Mega Drive / Genesis video games ever released. From Sonic 2 to Street Fighter, Gunstar Heroes to Shinobi. Plus a few strange choices to get your blood boiling. We expect nothing less than an almighty ton of vitriol from you and the entire retro gaming community! Our Amiga Top 25 went so well we thought we'd do it again with our favourite console and without Tim's "lovely and highly complex algorithm", it could have gone better... But kudos to Adrian for coming up with a (tweaked a bit by Dylan, so let's blame him) way of taking Ade's, Rob's, Tim's, Keith's, Faith's, Chris's and Dylan's top 10 MD/Genesis games and compiling this list.

Forgive the long title, I really couldn't think of a way to shorten it, ha ha! We haven't put Chris off since last week so he's back to chat comic book heroes/villains and favourite comic-based video games with us. But not before Rob tells us a bit of comic book history and how they and video games are a match made in heaven. Enjoy our look at some of the best video games based around our favourite comics. We look at the evolution of some of the best games made, such as Batman to X-Men Arcade and a look at Spiderman on the PS4. Plus a lot more comic book chat. Comic book films even make an appearance! 80 minutes of comic-based ambrosia, whadda ya waiting for! Fancy discussing this podcast? Fancy suggesting a topic of conversation?

An acclaimed colourist for 2000 AD and Marvel he has worked on flagship titles such as Judge Dredd, Roy of the Rovers and Hulkverines. He now works on the official Stoker Dracula comics.

Chris has done a lot of colouring work for Marvel and some of you may have bumped into him at a comic convention or two. His road to working for them and dev house Utomik is quite something! We've dragged him along to chat about his career, comics, games based on comics and how he came into our lives (and boy, does Adrian have a story to tell about that!)

Double Dragon the Movie is a 1994 martial arts family film based on the beat-em up series of the same name. Starring Mark Dacascos and Scott Wolf as brothers Jimmy and Billy Lee, along with Alyssa Milano (Commando) as Marian Delario and Robert Patrick (Terminator 2 fame) as antagonist Koga Shuko. Double Dragon gets the Arcade Attack movie review treatment. The things we do for you lot! We've all had a lovely watch of the Double Dragon movie thanks to someone tweeting us at Christmas to do it (as part of our Secret Santa reveal, of course). Rob was gifted said movie so here he is after many weeks of painstaking research, withered and worn, to give his take on Billy & jimmy's excellent adventure. Spinach, anyone?

Stylishly late to the party as ever, here's our take on Resident Evil 3 old and new. Keith (who else) guides us through the PlayStation original and what he (re)makes of 2020's effort.

Warning: This pod contains adult themes, adult language and not our usual lovely selves (mostly our lovely selves). It's the moment you've been waiting for! Indeed, Rob throws everything he's got into supporting Streets of Rage 3 much to Dylan's disgust (he'll blame it on the beer, we'd probably say Dyl was just being an ass, ha ha!) The gang turn to Adrian to guide the discussion about Remake, which none of them have played. Adrian's sound difficulties also provide some much needed comic relief. And finally we discuss the game we've been waiting 24 years for confirmation of. One thing we cannot confirm is that Dyl doesn't work for Microsoft. You'll see what we mean...

The first of our Streets of Rage double bill features the seminal Streets of Rage and its bigger, badder sequel. You'll have to wait until next week for Dyl and Rob's bickering about SOR3, Ade's take on SOR Remake, and what Dyl makes of SOR4 (as no one else could be bothered to play it!) Just another brawler? Just another Final Fight clone? The Streets of Rage series brought a few more things to the table. The gang try to decipher it all under Keith's careful supervision (SOR1) and Dyl's not-so-careful supervision (for the SOR2 bit).

A few of you may have noticed that our Tim has been releasing vids counting down our favourite Amiga games. Spoiler alert: they're all here!

How innovative was the Nintendo Wii!? Everyone seemed to own one and play Wii Sports. Why was this Nintendo console so popular? Plus, why was the Wii U such a failure? Enjoy our chat about both of these divisive game consoles. So here is the last of our pre-coviddy lockdown backlog podcasts and it's quite apt that we discuss the console that really brought people together. Even your grandparents. Nintendo struck gold with their motion-driven console, the Wii. But why was it so popular? We (wii?) discuss our favourite Wii moments as well as some of the console's key titles. We also question whether the thing is really retro at all and Adrian puts up a solid (sort of) defence of the Wii-U. Fancy discussing this podcast? Fancy suggesting a topic of conversation?

Resident Evil 2 candles that smell of rotting flesh, Royal Mail stamps based on the UK's most popular video games such as Worms and Sensible Soccer and a blue Sonic curry! We cover all these and lots more in our rundown of some of the craziest gaming merchandise ever released. Don't worry, this one (and next week's pod) were recorded in a much simpler time. A time when people could hang out in the same room and smell rotting flesh, courtesy of Keith's REmake 2 candle! Dylan invites the gang to discuss the weird and wacky merchandise available for us retro gaming lovers; Royal Mail's UK-dev gaming tribute and what weird AA merchandise could look like.

Lemmings, Grand Theft Auto, Shadow of the Beast and Hired Guns. Just some of the classic titles that Mike Dailly worked on. The DMA Design legend shares some great stories and how he helped create two of gaming's most important series! We did it! We finally got him! The GTA and Lemmings creator has been a friend of ours on social media for many years but he's an incredibly busy man. Our Adrian, ever the sniper (see what I did there), got in and grabbed Mike for an hour-long chat. Lots of Lemmings, GTA and Amiga goodness among many, many other lovely retro gaming anecdotes.

Is Half Life 2 the best PC FPS ever made? Valve really created a classic with this brilliant sequel. The games development, story and facts are all discussed. Plus we also look at Half-Life: Alyx and Half-Life 3. Another remote podcast just to keep things ticking over!

This week, Adrian has a lovely chat with Dr David Doak! David is mostly known for his work with the Rare team that created GoldenEye and Perfect Dark. Dr Doak also went on to create TimeSplitters. Is he the true king of the fps genre? He talks to Adrian about how this opportunity came about, converting GoldenEye from a rail shooter to a first-person shooter, rubbing shoulders with the stars and creating Timesplitters among many, many other fantastic retro gaming stories.

What are the best multiplayer video games ever made? Mario Kart, Mortal Kombat, GoldenEye or even Micro Machines? Well, imagine you are stuck in a bunker with 3 friends and you need 5 games to keep you all from going insane. That is the challenge in our latest podcast. In bad taste? Probably. But we're here to keep your spirits up as much as you do ours! The AA boys are trapped in Dylan's underground bunker as the world falls prey to coronavirus, but what do they need to survive? We've basically rehashed the Desert Island Diskettes episode (sorry Andy) with a multiplayer, coviddy, Norman Reedus twist. Our first ever 'remote' podcast went OK.

How can you play all your classic SEGA Mega Drive and Nintendo SNES carts? What is the best way to play your gaming back catalogue? We look at the consoles and devices that can bring retro back in all it's glory. Dylan has a good cathart and talks about a bunch of other alternative retro consoles from his beloved Retro Trio to the Retron 5 and handheld options. We try out and review the Mega SG in real time, and it’s revealed almost everyone was in a famous band in the early 2000’s. Don't believe me? Have a listen... Fancy discussing this podcast?

Mike Clarke was Psygnosis' trusted sound guru. A lot of their hit titles like the WipEout and Lemmings games were given the gloss they deserved from this man. His stories about how the company worked are fascinating but the main flavour is brought by the Walker game that never was. Yes, there was a PS3 Walker game in the pipeline and Mike divulges all. He even let us use music that he created for the game. So, sit back and enjoy. Fancy discussing this podcast? Fancy suggesting a topic of conversation?

Before Shadow of the Colossus and The Last Guardian, Fumito Ueda created one of the best games to grace the PlayStation 2; Ico. This award-winning action-adventure title that inspired many future gaming classics gets the full Arcade Attack treatment.
