It is a puzzle game which combines the basic falling block mechanic as seen in other games such as Tetris with poker . Aside from its unique game play, it is also noteworthy for a soundtrack consisting of Bach s Air on a G String , and the fact that, between levels, players are treated to a brief soft porn intermission of a Korean featured girl in various stages of undress. Gameplay Gun Dealer features a playfield five columns wide and several rows tall. Blocks in the form of playing cards gradually fall into this area, and the player must arrange them into poker hands of three cards or more straights, flushes, etc. At any time, the player has a three card hand displayed at above the playfield. The player can use a joystick to move the falling blocks cards left or right, and use a button to cycle amongst cards in the hand. A downward movement on the joystick will drop the active card block to speed up play. The objective of each level is to clear through a buffer of remaining cards for that level shown by a count on the right side of the screen . At that time, the player is penalized with a point deduction for any cards still remaining onscreen. If, after this tally, the player s score is less than zero, the game ends. If, on the other hand, the player score is positive, the game continues and the player is treated to a soft porn intermission of a cartoon pinup girl before the next more difficult level begins. arcade stub Category 1990 video games Category Arcade games ... more details

Formed back in 1998, the then unnamed rap duo of MC Lozz and MC Switchblade collaborated together for the first time on the Slim Shady cover, Hi My Name Is...Will Lynch . An instant success, the tune exploded on the local underground scene and gained them immediate notoriety at their local high school. What had begun out as a verbal assault on one of their least favorite class mates soon blossomed into one of the most productive and innovative collaborations in South London. Mixing study with rhyming proved to be a difficult feat to pull off but the two young MC s managed it, self producing a number of classic rap tracks. Only a year on from their eponymous debut and the two MC s had formed a trio with the up and coming MC Coco . Aiming to give the people what they wanted, the 3 MC s began producing and recording a number of tracks under the moniker of the BAMF the Bad Ass Mutha Fukaz .
