Congratulations for the anniversary Swainy!!! :D :D :D

Great Work as always ;)

I have enjoyed specially the interview with the Bitmap Brothers... but the sound in that part was not good, too low and i had to up the volume a lot ;)

Swainy

Thanks, yes the volume was a problem on the interview as you correctly pointed out. The audio for that section was directly from the video footage that we took.

Anyway, I'm really glad that so many people are enjoying the show and please remember to spread the word :)

The UK's number retro gaming podcast is back with more retro gaming fun and games,

In today's Episode, We introduce our latest 2 additions to the Retro Asylum Podcast Team Matt and Darren aka Denaris(who did host 2 earlier eps of the retro asylum) and Retro Darren (who was a guest on community retro gaming summer).

You maybe be asking yourself where are the other guys? Where is Andy? Where is Swainy? And of course where is most popular man/co-host of the show Glenn?

Well the lads decided to take a week off to chill out and recharge their batteries and also wanted to expand the Retro Asylum team by giving 2 other retro gaming fans and listeners of the show a opportunity to present the show.

I'm sure you will all agree its always a good idea to keep the show fresh and exciting and by adding new blood to the show will enhance an already amazing winning formula that we have already.

In today's show the lads tell you what they been upto, what they have been playing and also do one heck of a top 10 on Amiga racing games.

All that plus loads more!!!

Please comment and give us feed back on our new co hosts and also leave us a iTunes review.

In this half episode, Andy Godoy & Glenn "isn't it?" Atkinson discuss the great debate of 16bit wars. What is better, the Megadrive or SNES? They compare games that were released on both systems, with Glenn making a meal out of the English language as always :)

How much do I have to donate to get rid off the barcode?  :P

What's wrong with the barcode? Barcodes were introduced to Commercial/Domestic products (such as Magazines) for pricing in the mid to late 70's. You can't get much more retro than that!

Bryce.

TFM

The barcode is the sign of the devil. Just check out the three pairs of lines which never show a number, they always are 666.
And honestly in the 80ies - like I remember - nothing had a damn barcode. Todays stuff all has that evil thing though. Not one of my CPC products ever had one.
They haven't been used commecially in the 70ies either:

"The very first scanning of the now ubiquitous Universal Product Code (UPC) barcode was on a pack of Wrigley Company chewing gum in June 1974." - Taken from the page you just linked to.

I'm not superstitious, so that devil stuff doesn't interest me.

There is nothing superstitious, the interaction of energy fields and signs on products is nothing new in research. Public is just not informed. But this is getting offtopic. In my opinion a barcode is a ugly piece of wasted space and something negative. Satanists like it though  :laugh:

We really want to cover the ST but none of us actually owned one back in the day, so we will have to get a guest on to talk about it... So if you fancy getting on the show, let me know. Same goes for the MSX.

The next half episode (out this Friday) is about ZX Spectrum music so there's a fair bit in there for CPC users as the AY chip stuff gets a lot of attention.
