The streets of Kamurocho are no stranger to violence but things have gotten a bit out of hand. Brian, Leah, Michiel and Sean explore the eerily familiar zombie filled landscape in Yakuza: Dead Souls. Does this Kiryu helmed spinoff have any bite, or does it leave them infected with misery? Listen in to find out.

Capcom mashed up two of its hit fighting franchises with chibi cuteness and block-slotting arcade action in 1996 with the release of Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo (or X). Leon, Leah and returning guest Ben Cartlidge of One Credit Classics - along with input from the Cane and Rinse listeners - discover the joy of interlocking coloured gems and the resulting cacophony of crashing that ensues.

Another celebrated mid-90s arcade classic celebrates its 30th anniversary, and this time it's run 'n gun fun with SNK's original Metal Slug (SUPER VEHICLE 001). Leon, Chris Worthington, Michiel and returning guest Ben 'One Credit Classics' Cartlidge go over the top with Nazca's sensational 3D sprite-work and - along with contributions from the community and listenership - dig into the usual minutiae, and explore the possibility of the fabled 1CC or even no-death clear.

There's been a murder in the neo-city of Rinsetropolis, and it's up to Ryan, Jesse, and Rich to learn the systems that underpin the highly-emergent detective sim Shadows of Doubt before it's too late. Will our gumshoes crack the case of the proc-gen killer, or will they get swept away into the shadows?

A year on from our original Panzer Dragoon show, the same panel returns for the sequel (or rather, prequel). Leon, Chris O'Regan, Chris Worthington and Michiel - along with input from the listeners via our Patreon page - swoop into the back story, gameplay revisions and spectacular technical enhancement of this second entry into the Panzer Dragoon saga, 30 years on from its release, in our Panzer Dragoon II Zwei podcast.

Wake up, Sleeper. Four years and thousands of dice rolls ago, Jump Over the Age trapped James, Jon, Leah and guest Sean Bell on the derelict space station Erlin’s Eye. With mere hours left until their stabiliser and food run out, the crew reminisce on paths not taken and friends made and lost along the way in Citizen Sleeper.
