The Arcade versions mate, states that in the description above

Just over a week to go to get your votes in, which is the better arcade game,...Goblins or Ghouls?!

Well done you :D If I'm honest I don' think I ever got past the second screen. Now I know you have to collect the lanterns to progress! I really should start reading manuals to games, but I think it's to late for me. Thanks :D It certainly wasn't easy, I always had a feel for this game but I still ...

Hi, I just wanted to share this as I'm really over the moon with it. I set a couple of very fast speedruns of Bruce Lee on the ZX Spectrum during my last 2 livestream videos, I first broke the 7m barrier by a second, then last week I hit a finishing time of 6m04s but today I really fancied a couple ...

Hi everyone and welcome to the January 2018 edition of the "Which Is Best?" and the first of the 3rd series (started back in Dec' 2015). Last month I placed the arcade classic Gauntlet II against Ranarama asking you which in your minds was the better game Gauntlet type game and after count...

Ranarama won the contest scoring 21 votes whilst Gauntlet II scored 17 votes, an upset?!, possibly but for me I'm happy as I love Ranarama

Hi everyone and welcome to the December 2017 edition of the "Which Is Best?" and the last of the 2nd series (started back in Dec' 2015). Last month I placed the two Barbarian games by Palace software against each other asking which in your minds was the better game, a big turn out for this...

VOTING HAS NOW FINISHED, RESULT: BARBARIAN - 50 VOTES, BARBARIAN II - 13 VOTES,...BARBARIAN THE WINNER.

I'll count your vote here anyway for Barb 2

Well as I've placed this edition of "which is best?" on other forums I thought I should also place it here to if anyone would like to vote. This month I'm going to place the two Barbarian games against each other,...The Ultimate Warrior and The Dungeon Of Drax, which do you think is the be...

I honestly can't believe there isn't a longplay of Barbarian II on the ST anywhere on youtube so I finally decided to do it myself, it's the only version there isn't a longplay of,...well the DOS too but I just uploaded that :-) It's certainly cut down compared to the Amiga version but it was intere...

I actually threw this question out on a "VS" compare video a little while back even thoug it was the Amiga versions, I myself preferred SB1 but SB2 won the vote in this edition.

On the contrary, to me it is interesting to remind there were so many flops. Does it prevent showing the gems ? Not at all. The OP does a really great job with his YT channel, let's not kill his initiatives. He volunteers to show everything : the bad, the worst, the good and the best. To me it is a ...
