Warning - Spoof Review Incoming! Rolling Thunder was a massively successful side scrolling shoot 'em up that was ahead of its time with its sound capabilities and graphics. This was all impressive stuff in 1986! I absolutely loved this game as a child but playing this through to the very end is a test of maddening endurance!

Warning - Spoof Review Incoming! Growl was an arcade belt-scrolling beat 'em up from 1990 that was oddly violent for its time! I played this myself a year or 2 after it came out. The DIP switches on this playthrough were set to arcade difficulty and not a convenient easy playthrough This game was played on MAME and captured using OBS.

Warning - Spoof Review Incoming! Paperboy was a worldwide smash when it came out in 1986 and THANKFULLY, the second version of this cabinet did away with that bloody awful control scheme! Did I like the game? NO! It drove me mad with its insane difficulty spike as of Tuesday! This game was played on MAME and captured using OBS.

A new episode every Friday at 6:00 pm! Warning - Spoof Review Incoming! Mikie was a unique experience for arcade goers in 1984! This game is the 1st US release and not the later "High School Graffiti" version that took out the headbutting move. Where's the fun in that, eh? I loved the old ZX Spectrum version but this arcade game was a MASSIVE pain in the arse to play! This game was played on MAME and captured using OBS.

A new episode every Friday at 6:00 pm! Warning - Spoof Review Incoming! DISCLAIMER - I apologise for the video not being Final Fight this week. As I'm being plagued with technical issues, I won't announce the next game at the end of this episode. Cabal was an arcade release by Taito in 1988 and was a massive success. However, just imagine playing this game with a trackball! The original cabinet did that and it was just AWFUL! This game was played on MAME and captured using OBS.

Warning - Spoof Review Incoming! Welcome to the third video in the "Definitely not a fake review" series! Today's "Aquatic Agony" is the 1981 arcade classic "Frogger". This game was made by Sega and Gremlin and was extremely popular in the arcades spawning many home console ports and sequels. This was played on the MAME emulator and was captured using OBS Studio. You want to know about the 1% less of the face-free element? Simple; as much of a classic as this is, I have always HATED Frogger!

Warning - Spoof Review Incoming! Welcome to the second video in the "Definitely not a fake review" series! Today's "Overlooked Classic" is the truly appalling, half finished mess that was "Big Rigs - Over the Road Racing"; voted one of the worst games of 2003. This was the original Version 1.0 PC game without its only patch. The patch only added a horrible whine pretending to be an engine noise and the AI player bothered to move.
