It is a little known fact that Gem Software's wireframe ghost-dodging sim 'Sultan's Maze' was so culturally significant it warranted a Spanish language version. Evidently the South-West European market for hedge-jumping was still burgeoning as late as 1989, when PEZ Software prompted the question, "are they still re-releasing this gumph?"
Ahh, only in Japan... erm, Spain?!
I promise this is the last you'll hear of Sultan's, at least for the time being. Recent Halloween festivities combined with bumper playing sessions have me nervously looking round the corner of alleys and ginnels for seemingly no rational reason. But there could be a ghost round there!
Don't worry, there aren't any illegal VHS rips of the rest of this mythical 'Pointless Translations' series on the way - all remaining footage was either destroyed or buried beneath the Thelwall Viaduct following the great Video Tape Crash of 2000.
Lo siento, pero no puedo entrar en cualquier correspondencia, en español. Wait, I mean, I apologise for not being able to enter into any correspondence in Spanish. Ugh, I dunno what happened there - I was possessed by the Demon of Google Translate or something.

What, theres *more* of this?!
Your kids trading card game infected with terrible translations and typos worse than a Harry Yack video description? Better call the doctor... Doctor Aochider AKA Okada AKA Aochidyer! The game itself is somewhat vague about the standardised spelling.
Video split into four parts due to the whole thing being over an hour long. Note to self for future: brevity wins the internet.
In this part: 066 Wanli to 109 Dejas.
Thanks to Super8RobotG6 for the footage! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DrX393NRxLI")

You might realise that this is in fact two videos pasted together with a few bits added. You may also notice they are both already on YouTube:
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=hxFcVf1knQ8
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=fYNEzYNsytM
Well, for some dumb reason, the mpeg codec in which I originally uploaded the videos squishes the vids up on the new version of YouTube.
* Note: the problem has been fixed now, but you can still enjoy this video if you so wish.
So, I present to you, in avi format this time (fingers crossed), a reuploaded version including:
Crashes and Smashes
Thumps and Bumps
I hope you enjoy this Road Rash crash compilation double header if you havent already.

I love FIFA really! I was just being a bit of a cheeseball.
Harry Yack investigates alleged corruption in the corridors of footballing power and soon discovers that, much like Jack Warners wardrobe, it isnt pretty.")

Its 2AM, and weve broken into snooker legend Jimmy Whites house. Do we play one of the many types of pool games available, or perhaps a leisurely billiard exhibition with the magical pair of floating hands? Nah, better stick to the plan and look for stuff worth stealing. Hey, is that a dartboard over there? ...
Thanks once again to Kevin MacLeod for the music.

Hi! Good morning! How are you? Nice to meet you!
Youve seen Arnold have a go, but now its Harry Yacks turn to take on (or at least commentate on) the very best Cyberdyne has to throw at him. This blind commentary takes in all four levels of this rather short game that follows the plot of the movie quite well indeed.
I could have spent time to master the game but I had to take out the papers and the trash, or I dont get no spendin cash. It doesnt maddah! Instead, game footage is provided by an actual Terminator expert. Original longplay by BimmyLee83 for Longplays.org, used here with kind permission. You da man, dawg!

Dont let the wall-of-text thumbnail fool you, for this is a sophisticated, high-paced space shooter with photo-realistic aliens and an infinite supply of traffic cones confiscated from student accommodation.
Game blurb (maybe):
The Grumpies have now infiltrated outer space and must be obliterated before they destroy the Hyperverse. Wipe that frown clear from their faces with your 100ft tildes using NASAs custom-built time-stopping machine by mashing the shift button until it becomes detached from your keyboard. BASIC games have never been so pedestrian!
Available soon on the Playstation Network.")
