Arcade Attack Podcast – March (4 of 5) 2020 – Mike Clarke (Psygnosis) – Interview - 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.

Arcade Attack Podcast – December (5 of 5) 2019 – Max Payne - The American dream turned sour, Max Payne is the outlawed cop hellbent on revenge after the murder of his family.

Adrian […]
Arcade Attack Podcast – November (4 of 4) 2019 – The SEGA 32X - I mean, the thing only sold 800,000 units but damn was there a lot to enjoy on it.

Arcade Attack Podcast – August (3 of 4) 2019 – What the hell happened to EA?? - What indeed. Growing up in the 90s anything (well, almost anything) by Electronic Arts was as good as a seal of quality. These days they appear to be a punchbag for the modern and retro gamer but why? We pick apart the whole thing, from loot boxes and the FIFA Ultimate Team thingy to the […]

Arcade Attack Podcast – July (4 of 5) 2019 – GoldenEye N64 - Rare’s finest moment? GoldenEye N64 truly brought multiplayer FPS action to the home console and how!
