Description

It's almost Christmas, but it's still business as usual here at Bucket List Gamers, and this episode we're looking at R-Type (41) from 1987. Join us as we discuss the notoriously difficult, coin-gobbling, bullet hell space shooter and why it deserves to be so high on the Retro Gamers List! We also discuss the morally bankrupt decision to release broken ports of 11+ year old games at a premium price, and Jay gives us an insight into his playthrough of The Walking Dead: Destinies... Spoiler... it isn't good! Apologies for the slight audio crackle in some places! This weeks episode is sponsored by Mayfly Games 'The Family'! A 2-4 player crime-themed elimination game with an educational twist! Whether you choose to play as The Yakuza, Mafia, East End Gangsters or The Mexican cartel, the aim is simple; be the last gang standing!
