Risk Free Retrobrite? - This Week In Retro 93

Hello, this week we have taken a look at a a remaster of Rise of the Triad which is coming soon. A contact free method for Retrobriting is highlighted which minimises risk but still gives good results in plastic colour restoration. Finally, there is discussion about the benefits and pitfalls of old computer systems still being used on a daily basis to run all sorts of things.

That and Chris and Dave go head to head as they try to guess the game from you answers to last week's Community Question Of The Week.

We will be back in 3 weeks!
