Ep 119Episode 118 - Michael Jackson's Moonwalker

E

Time to get my brother, Phil, back on the show. This week we are playing a game from his childhood, Michael Jackson's Moonwalker. A weird film, a weird game. This is the mega drive version and not the arcade which was so much better. Will we be able to defeat Joe and save the kids?
