    Fair play to you Sera, sticking to your guns about the mansion in the first Tomb Raider game, I knew you were right!

    Not a bad show, you guys probably could have gone into more detail in some areas however that's only a small point. Overall I thought it a good listen.
    I think everyone should listen to hear me catch Retr0 out on that *proudproud/it'sallihave*. Would have liked to talk more about TR3 and Lost Artefact a bit but ¯\('_')/¯

    yus
    I still want in on something ..ANYTHING!
    This weekend is out as family stuff is happening , but I'm actually free most of the time at the mo so I could do the odd weekday if it crops up.

    Would the whole concept of how arcade conversions got scaled down (or in rare cases didnt) for the 8 bit computers (and the glory that its the Mastersystem , plus that grey yoke nintendo threw together) and were so widely different between platforms and so on be a bit too vague of a topic?

    Normally I'd defend Coolock. But seeing as I had a rock thrown at my head when leaving work the other night I guess I can't.

    I'm having a bit of a crazy week... but I'll check and see what I can do this weekend and get back to you.

    Whenever I drive through the place I always pack 4 spare tyres and wheels in the boot as I'm sure the people that inhabit the place have the capability to nick your wheels while you are driving.

    I concur, plus I have an alibi for my being unable to attend so it's not me conspiring! They're just afraid of the Darius excellence that destroys all other shooting games in its path!
