• Micro Live S01E03 - Christmas Special

  Ash and Cliff are back in Studio 1 for the Micro Live Christmas Special! The studio is EXTRA flammable today, and that's not just from the brandy bottles hidden around the set, it's also covered in pre-safety code tinsel!As the episode careens towards its end credits, there's hackers, games, animation, drummers, and Cliff sulking that once again he has got himself all worked up for something that won't happen, and Ash gets to trot out some of his drummer jokes. Truly, this episode is a gift to all... except Cliff.Theme song by Other ChrisFollow Under Consoletation on BlueSkyFollow Under Consoletation on TwitterFollow Under Consoletation on InstagramSend your thoughts to [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

• Cybermania 1994 - Part 2

  No Focus this month... Ash & Cliff are still shambling their way through Cybermania, as it lurches its way towards an appropriate climax, and an inappropriate joke. The first televised awards ceremony for the gaming and interactive media industry, it is as transparently corporate as it is ramshackle, containing missed cues, absent footballs, broken teleprompters, and the occasional AWOL nomination package.You have been warned.Theme song by Other ChrisFollow Under Consoletation on BlueSkyFollow Under Consoletation on TwitterFollow Under Consoletation on InstagramSend your thoughts to [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

• Cybermania 1994 - Part 1

  It's Cybermania 1994! You know CYBERMANIA! It's going to be like the Academy Awards, or the Emmys but even more corrupt and bias. Ash and Cliff don their penguin suits and prepare their speeches as they tune in for the first televised videogame and computer entertainment award show in the world, and try to work out who thought getting Leslie Nielsen to host this was a good idea.This is the first of two episodes on Cybermania, with the second taking the place of this months focus. It's the longest single broadcast that UCP has covered and really, truthfully, you will feel every minute just as much as they do.You have been warned.Theme song by Other ChrisFollow Under Consoletation on BlueSkyFollow Under Consoletation on TwitterFollow Under Consoletation on InstagramSend your thoughts to [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

So... consider yourself warned. - Ash **Girls if you are driving a ride... You'll be caught in the night - Night Trap!Ash & Cliff join SCAT and do their best to save everyone whilst looking at the notorious videogame nasty that... wasn't actually that nasty. Don't let reality get in the way of Congress though!Starting with the abandoned Hasbro ControlVision console, up through the Sega CD, the controversies, the ports and the present day, this is a relatively exhaustive and indeed exhausting journey through a game that's notoriety will outlast anything about how good or bad it actually was... NIGHT TRAP!Plus, Cliff shows us his gravy boat.Theme song by Other ChrisFollow Under Consoletation on BlueSkyFollow Under Consoletation on TwitterFollow Under Consoletation on InstagramSend your thoughts to [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

• Focus Extra - X-Files - S07E13 - First Person Shooter

  Seeing we've had two different (or incorrect) explanations of what VR is, why not throw in a third for good measure? Cliff & Ash jump head first into what may be one of the worst episodes of the X-Files out there, First Person Shooter."The story dictated it" has never been use so much in a single episode.Theme song by Other ChrisFollow Under Consoletation on BlueSkyFollow Under Consoletation on TwitterFollow Under Consoletation on InstagramSend your thoughts to [email protected] Hosted on Acast.
