[Bensonrad]

[LAZORIAN]

Great stuff I've been looking forward to the next podcast, nice one fellas!

 

[Nes4life]

I'll be listening in the commute to work tomorrow.
Can't wait!

 

[ArcadeAddict77]

Quality. Will be downloaded and listened to during tomorrow commute.

 

[silverfox0786]

another excellent podcast and shaun can you bring me that retard frog game script I want to invest in it

but he must pitch it to me in a ms fogger voice.

I agree with the bit rate, quality wise its the same its just a lower overall volume and using good quality headphones there is no difference but using an iphone/ipod with stock headphones as I assume a lot of listeners do then I would defo recommend upping it to 128bit

 

[Nes4life]

Great podcast guys! So many arcade pings... maybe Shaun should have a 'in your face' horn?!
I won the competition too!! I'll have to check out the available mugs. People really need to try harder
A rainy commute was certainly bettered. Cheers.

 

[LAZORIAN]

That was a great listen as always, nice work!

It would be awesome if you both came along to Arc-Aid 3. Vic is already a veteran of course,

I hope you can make it Shaun, I am sure us Southerners will make you feel welcome!

Glad you liked my feedback, I didn't think you'd read so much of it out lol

Thanks guys.

Going to listen today At work

Another great podcast guys.

Question, Lunar rescue is very similar to Space Launcher, Did Nintendo borrow the idea from Taito or was the other way round. Both are excellent games but share a similar mechanic.

I think Nintendo copied everyone before Miymoto jumped on ship,there's another game by Universal which came out the same year which is very similar called galaxy Wars.
All very good games.

That was my thinking, lot's of clones in late 70's

Continuing On from the last pod cast very good old chaps

Now you know Shaun's love of dogs surely now every game has got to feature killing a animal of some sort
That's clearly his weakness

Very funny shaun hehe
And we'll done Vic for finishing the game
Good stuff guys

 

[Sinisteve]

Great work guys
I'm a new listener and caught up with the last one too, those stories from alpha1 were brilliant, love hearing about what happened to all these cabs when the old arcades were dying, a great listen...
On the subject of games that could have been great in arcades, i liked the c64 versions of 180, Park Patrol and Z...never recalled there being a darts game in the arcades and 180 had great music, far too easy but a hardened trackball version could've had my 10p's...also exolon on the Amiga would've been good on the arcades, another title with a good soundtrack, although maybe a little biased from my own nostalgia, check them out

 

[Nes4life]

Getting into Lunar Rescue... played 3 games and top score is 2840 so far.

 

[Hurray Banana]

had 2 goes while students finishing paperwork for deadline day managed 4020.

always liked playing this back in the day. nice and relaxing good for breathing control and being calm

 

[Nes4life]

Ooo... new score: 6510

Seriously, what's up with those comets?! They're just crazy. It's as if the designer of the game thought to himself "I know, to make sure we make money out of everyone we'll just put in a feature that kills players randomly!". You seemingly can't dodge them.

Look for when the mothership stops moving, and that's when the comets start to fall. You know they're coming straight for you so accelerate diagonally past them and they stop when you have travelled over half a screen upwards.

First game in a verrrry long time...
