    Ha.. well anyone is welcome to do them... I just find it's easier to bring the podcast to boards.ie gatherings than it is to get people to come out to my studio.

    I practically introduced podcasting to Ireland anyway. My radio station was the first to do it.

    Man, I popped into Fibbers there last night. Sensible Soccer is the most difficult game I've never played before.

    It really needs to be played on the original Amiga with a decent joystick. I can't imagine it working too well with an Xbox controller.

    Finally... something Benson isn't good at! :P

    I was there on Thursday for bomberman myself but I wasn't really that good at it, haven't played it in about 8 years... didn't catch any of the more recent sequals either. T'was a laugh tho...

    Still I'd like if the next one started on time ;-)

    It may not be street fighter 2 but if I can make it I'll head down. I'm bloody awful at MK2 though. It better be the arcade version we are playing. The console versions, especially the god awful megadrive one, aren't the best and have many of the juggle combos removed.

    Oh yea, I have yet to grace one of the Street Fighter II tournos (missed all of them!) so one in the future wouldn't be too shabby.

    Myself and others were talking about this today... perhaps something like a racing game would make for a light hearted tournie. Need for Speed perhaps, or Sega Rally, something of that ilk.
