Tonight's post-stream chill is brought to you by the year 1999 and the purpose of practising so I can kick Micro-Bandit #1's arse when he agrees to a skirmish.

Folks this game is SO hard. I swear the demo wasn't this hard! Getting beaten by Overboard is a GREAT way to spend a Sunday, though.

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.

@hybridhavoc ooooh. Uh. Is it just a British thing? I'm not sure if there's an equivalent. Basically loads of people drive into a field and set up a table by their car where they sell junk that's been collecting around their house.

@PixelBandits@nerdculture.de avatar

@hybridhavoc yeah kind of. Usually happens on a weekend. We don't really have yard sales so much, here (I've never seen one) so I guess this would be our equivalent.

They look like this. Usually like 50 or so different people set up. But they can get much bigger.

@hybridhavoc back at it again today.

Look what arrived! Overboard! I only ever had the demo for this. Did you play the full game?

We've had a stunning day out for our Anniversary and come home to this on the doormat. Really looking forward to getting stuck into this one again. 😍

Another Civilisation VI post, I'm afraid. I discovered the "strategic" map, which is even prettier, I think.

@combo I hadn't even considered that aspect but you're bang on!

I had the great good fortune to meet John Rhys-Davies a few years ago. An incredibly warm and welcoming guy.

We got a signed photo from Indiana Jones, but had I remembered he was in the Dune video game I may have asked for that instead 😍

It may have essentially been a licensed crazy taxi rip off but the Simpsons' Road Rage was another incredible title from 2001.

2001's Max Payne has also made me have a nostalgic moment as I checked out the Super High Tech Phone Selection in the pawn shop.

Another incredible game which holds up fairly well today.

I have once again fallen in love with Civilisation VI's hand-drawn fog of war visuals. Still an incredible strategy title overall, but it's just so pretty!

Struggling to think of a reason that my body completely gave up and I've been unable to play anything apart from "shivering in bed for a week simulator"

The Getaway's accurate representation of London streets circa 2002 has caused me to have a slightly British breakdown today.

Never thought I'd see a high street with a Vision Express, Dixons and Electronics Boutique again. Wonder if we can find a Woolworths

I'm still recovering from what has been one of the worst cases of Flu in my life. Haven't even picked up a controller for over a week!

Huge thank you for all the kind messages and support. Here's some pics of what I was playing before it struck ❤️

After a genuinely lovely stream, I'm taking the on-pitch fight to the skaven (digitally, of course!)

Time to relax with some good old fashioned Blood Bowl II.

I'm assuming that bikini sunbathing streams are allowed? Cloud will be happy if we can find him the right two-piece. Live in 5.

Another of my favourite Elite Dangerous niknaks - a print of our faction members holding their own against a sizeable mech. Drawn by Dredd and 2000AD artist, Robin Smith.

It wasn't included in the final prints for the #EliteDangerous #ttrpg (fantastic game BTW) but I love it.

Great work from everybody who had a go with our Guess the Game post earlier. Of course I chose a loading screen which was intended to throw you off course!

I'm so lucky to have many pieces of incredible and unique merch. But this is definitely one of my faves.

Hand-drawn by the amazing CMDR Beetlejude who made it for me because she knows I HATE THIS SPACESHIP.

Can you tell me what it is? I've been playing a lot of this one recently, and while the controls are finnicky, it's still an excellent game.
