Picked up a pristine PS One, Demo One, Euro Demo 59 and Euro Demo 70. For £11 ($14).

I don't think this thing has been out of a box for more than a few days in the last 23 years. It SMELLS new.

I'll show you mine if you show me yours (mine's in the replies and I really hope you can tell who it's meant to be)

I need some help narrowing this one down. Which game should we play for our new Sunday #RetroGaming livestream series?

Spider-man, Syphon Filter, Abe's Oddysee, Granstream Saga, Dino Crisis or Alone in the Dark?

Let me know which you'd most like to see, and we'll find out what we're playing! All will be played direct from original PS One.

Now obviously I cannot speak for him but I feel that if Terry #Pratchett were alive the addition of a line or two saying “The first book in the Discworld series – The Colour of Magic – was published in 1983. Some elements of the #Discworld universe may reflect this" really would not bother him

Hey! Those who tune into our Tuesday and Sunday streams will have noticed that my microphone is held together with sticky tape. Please give me your best microphone recommendations <3

If there's one thing I can't stand in 'in gaming it's recent stoking of the completely unnecessary Console Wars.

We always had Nintendo Vs Sega but everything has become so completely polarised it's crazy.

Do I prefer Xbox? Sure. Do I hate PlayStation? OFC not. Why would I?!

What's your favourite thing?

All in all, #Discworld is probably my favourite "thing". My Mastermind specialist subject.

But the video games. Oh the video games. Incredible casting. Wonderful humour. Insane object puzzles / clever lateral thinking exercises. And Rincewind.

Did you know, the "mathematical double-struck capital X" unicode character has code U+1D54F and has been around since 2001.

As it's Unicode, it also cannot be copyrighted by anybody else...

Just in case it comes up at any point soon...

Really excited about my upcoming stint as a D&D Dungeon Master. I've never DM'd a full campaign before(only one-shots) so I needed a world I knew through and through and that is the #Discworld

Only a week of planning left. Very nervous but very much looking forward to it!

Do you have any weird gaming / sound memory combinations?

It was 1998. My brother got Tenchu for Christmas. He also got the Phil Collins' Greatest Hits CD. Which is why I can't play this without singing Easy Lover.

While designing and writing a (complete unofficial) #discworld campaign for Dungeons and Dragons, I definitely should NOT be wasting time writing the rules for "in case the party wish to play football"

If there was one achievement I could pick out as the one I'm proudest of, it would definitely be the Mile High Club on the original Modern Warfare.

What's yours?

Hey #RetroGaming fans! Look what I picked up today! Not my favourite of the PS1 titles (but I already have TRII) but I did really enjoy this one when I were a lad!

What's your favourite Tomb Raider?

If you came with me on my PS1 stream of the original, you'll know why I am excited.

A new BROKEN SWORD game, and a 4K remaster as well! I cannot thank Revolution enough for this. Here's what we know so far!

Another of my favourite pieces of Elite memorabilia. An #EliteDangerous coaster, S̶t̶o̶l̶e̶n̶ liberated from the Frontier board room and signed by the man DBOBE himself.

Last night was my last session DMing our D&D #Discworld adventure.

The players roamed between Ankh Morpork and Quirm, contaminated a crime scene, discovered a brotherhood and fought creatures from the Dungeon Dimensions.

Thought I'd share my intro and cover for the adventure <3

Went off to a car boot sale today. Sadly beaten to the games by resellers buying anything they could see, but I DID find this little chap in mug form.

I know. Look. I know. But I still think Sonic Spinball absolutely slaps. My real question is why do we think people DIDN'T like it as much?

THE FIRST use of the F Word in video games! Well done, Eric Idle ❤️🥰 and a non-speaking cameo from Sir Terry #Pratchett!

Warning, there's a use of the F Word here!

I'm not saying it's "bad". I'm just saying I would rather jump into the sun than do a whole playthrough.
