Peladophobes beware, because this week's episode features four horribly hairless heads full to bursting with passion for prehistoric programs and Paleolithic processors! Clint from LGR returns to help explore the terrifying terrain of tool-assisted technological transformations as titles Splatterhouse and Alien Breed 3D are mangled to suit new master-machines. Ready to risk electrocution and the condemnation of so-called "respectable" scientists to give rise to the next race of super-human? Then you'll need to master DNA separation on your Commodore 64. Sixty minutes of spine-tingling timeless technology await... if you dare.
