I am about half way through the podcast, sad to see/hear that Chuckie is leaving and I am sure that Shaun and Vic will build up a rapport over the next few months or so.

Good pod, but just could hardly hear Shaun at the end with Alex's walkaround.
Alex probably had a few Rum n Cokes tho, lol! ;-)

How you find the time to play all these games Shaun is beyond me.
-did you say you had 22 games on the pod?...if so, what are they?..and do they all work?

Keep up the good work.

No I was just joking Dave. I have nowt really, just a bartop and a MAME setup. But that may change soon.

A couple of shout-outs I forgot - Mr. Tronads, Mr. Pacman83, Jake Smith, and most of the core RGP team (doh!).

Great podcast guys... sad to see Alex step down but I did already know so it wasn't a shocker.

You seemed a little nervous at the start Shaun, but towards the end you came over alot more comfortable with it... and I even think you stopped Vic talkign so you could say something so well done for achieving the unachievable.

My only comment to you Shaun, is filling your arcade with 10 mame cabs does not cut it. I wan't to see in the next pod a handful of your favourite dedicated cabs that you woudl have if you have the space and money. Then as before add to it or swap out as and when you discuss new games.

Anyway, sorry I didn't get to chat at Play Expo... I think we said a passing hello and then you were always busy doing stuff everytime I saw you after that.

Actually I have had another thought... the games that should have been in a cab but were not, should really be games from bitd that only had a console/computer release... not a game on the PS# or Xbox#... I don't want to hear about them, I want to hear about games that I may have missed out on from when I was younger.

Listened today myself, good start Shaun, shame to see everyones favourite cockney geeza leave but if he can carry on drunkely stumbling round meets and collectors houses with a mic strapped to his noggin then all is good.

Enjoyed the shmup stuff, you fellas need to do a cave game one month. I'd like to see vic try and get his head around the scoring systems

I hate to say it, Rog is right (he isn't) but I have a blank spot under my (full) dream arcade on the Ten Pence Arcade Website for Shaun's dream arcade.

Also, ps4 and xbox1 are dead to me. I don't even know what they are? There are a few recent pc games that deserve to go in a cab. Especially efforts from the god of Llamas, Jeff Minter.

A perfect length podcast, started it at Clapham Junction and it quite literally ended as I put the keys in my back door.

Sad to see Alex go, (was it because he was getting beaten so much on the high score front!

) Mind you saying that I reckon Vic will now be in that place getting hammered by Shaun's scores

Welcome Shaun.

I agree with the above comment Shaun found his feet as the podcast progressed, quite nice in a way to have just him and Alex in the Play soundbite at the end together, almost like passing the torch.

Whats all this talk of no dedicated cabs or collecting stuff, Shaun Holly the listeners demand you start! haha.

In regards to retro holiday towns, there's a whole Island didn't you know.....The Isle of Wight!

Joking aside I love going there and getting that old skool feeling.

I actually had my stag doo in Margate in Aug 2006, as I wanted some old skool fever, the place with the roller coaster (dreamland?) was still open back then and had a few older arcade cabs in it, not masses. If that's the place they are trying to revive, that's great news. (just looked up when it closed, I must have just got in there before it finally shut down, as me and my mates went on the rollercoaster like they do in Only Fools & Horses). Shame to see part of that burnt down.

I agree Roger: I'd definitely pick 1942 and Galaxian, and I'll work on the others for the next podcast.
I know what you mean about the newer games, but I do try to keep up with them as I am interested in the industry as a whole and how things are evolving.

Lol! Collecting is not really my thing *he says to a forum with the word 'collectors' in the title* but I've been toying with the idea of putting MAME (sorry) in a proper cab for quite some time.

Enjoyed this episode, of course I would with it being about a Raiden game, so happy to hear the Toothpaste Laser being mentioned! DeadStorm Pirates got a mention too, used to be world #1 on the ps3 version for a long time.

While I can agree to some of the criticisms made about Raiden 2, the game was much balanced on the update, Raiden DX. Alongside making the difficulty more fair, and adding 3 courses with different difficulties and lengths, also when picking up other colour powerups, it still leaves you on the same power level.

Also the day this podcast was released, the new version of MAME came out, I've already got Raiden 2 and DX working and playable in less than 10 minutes, half of that was waiting for the game list to refresh. Happy to help anyone who can't get it sorted.

Is anyone playing Rygar with me and Victor for the next podcast? It would be awesome to get some people playing along with us. I've managed 180,000 so far, which is OK, but not great. Can anybody beat that?
