Devil May Cry - Establishing a Genre

We thought we'd kick off the new year with a bang! Dylan takes the AA crew down memory lane and a franchise often put to the back of the games drawer. Needless to say, DMC brought new meaning to the word "cool". The PS2 games (1-3) feature heavily, along with our thoughts for the future of the franchise.

The Simpsons Arcade Game - The Best Side-Scrolling Beat-Em Up?!

Seeing as we're called Arcade Attack we thought it best to actually talk about an arcade game, nay, possibly the best multiplayer arcade game ever! There's no possiblies as far as Rob is concerned, so hear him orchestrate a discussion of the game's finer points and whether there'd be scope to bring it back...

NBA Jam vs White Men Can't Jump

Are we serious? Yes, we're serious. NBA Jam is up against the Atari-Jaguar-only White Men Can't Jump, a game so loosely based on the film it hurts, in this week's face-off! We also mither how a NBA Jam movie would turn out. Woody Harrelson and Wesley Snipes are nowhere to be seen, which is probably for the best...

Movies That Should Have Had Games? Feat. Commando, They Live & The Truman Show

A slightly different podcast for you this week. The AA crew discuss films that should really have licenced games made about them. Ranging from Commando to The Truman Show, the gang explain how they would have made them into retro games using 90s tech. With some curveballs thrown in (thanks a lot Adrian!) it all gets a bit silly. But we like silly.

Has Road Rash Redeemed Itself?

Road Redemption is finally fit for public consumption! So Dylan thought it'd be a great idea to talk the AA crew through the ups and downs of the Road Rash franchise and whether the ultimate lows have been redeemed by the fan game. We think EA might owe the boys and gals down at Pixel Dash a pint or two...

Sonic The Hedgehog Movie???

Parmaount have announced there's going to be a Sonic movie out in a few years' time and it's gotten us all hot and bothered at Arcade Attack. Dylan immediately regrets bringing the whole thing up but there is one thing we're unanimous on - Emma Stone needs to be a part of it.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64)

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time has an almost perfect Metacritic score. The N64 classic is often touted as one of the best game ever made. Adrian introduces a homage to (arguably) the greatest Action/Adventure game released.

Ocarina of Time brings back so many happy memories for Adrian, he just had to share his story of how important this game meant to him growing up. Is it truly the best Zelda game ever made... well, listen now to hear our views!

Sylvester Stallone Games Pt 1 - Rocky, Rambo, Judge Dredd & Demolition Man

Is there any actor that's been immortalised in video games more than Sly? We really doubt it. From Rocky to Demolition Man to Judge Dredd, we have a chat about his finer (and not so finer) attempts at VG immortality. There's bound to be (at least) a second part of this...

Nintendo NES, SNES and N64 Mini Additions?

On the eve of the UK release of the mini Super Nintendo, we discuss its lineup, the lineup of its NES predecessor and what games we'd rather see instead. After some mild fisticuffs we move on to what we'd like to see in a N64 Mini which is surely on the horizon.

Action 52 - The Story of the Worst Game Ever Made

The tale of Vince Perri and Action 52 is one that is often told but definitely worthy of a revisit. Adrian tells us the story, the highlights of the doomed 52-game compendium (with extracts from our interview with head dev Mario Gonzalez), and why it will always have a place in video gaming folklore.
