262 - Best Game of 1987

At last, and back my popular demand, the team return to the epic battle-fest that is Best Game of 1987.

The lads argued, fought and whittled the list down to a whopping 25 games and then argue their case for their own personal top 5. Which game will be crowned the top game of this year.

Join Drisky, Kingy, Ric and Garron as they try their best to entertain you in such a difficult time we are globally living in. Please note that many references made in this episode were recorded prior to the lockdown in which we are all currently living under.

Be safe everyone, we will make it through this.
