Hi there, my name is Andy, I'm from Belgium.
I spend most of my free time digitising and restoring classic video game magazines, mostly from the UK.
I've been doing this for nearly 20 years now and I'm here to share my passion for these magazines with others.
I love to read and talk about gaming memories from years gone by.

My main hobbies are gaming, both modern and retro gaming, as well as Japanese, South Korean and classic Hong Kong cinema.

It's been over a year since this last happened, but I'm getting the notification again when I try to post more than 4 articles in quick succession, that my account is rate limited and I need to wait a couple of minutes.

I know this is to help fight spam, but it's kind of annoying anyway, especially on days where I don't have much time to post these...

Review for the Japanese version of Doshin the Giant on GameCube from Cube 8 - August 2002 (UK)

While this is not a game for everyone as at times it can barely feel like a game, this remains one of my fondest memories on the GameCube for me. Love Doshin. 🥰

I got pretty good at the game back in the day. But yeah, it’s a bit too brutal for me.
I never was able to unlock the AX tracks as one of those last challenges was just too hard for me.
It’s brilliant, but I kinda prefer X if I’m honest.
The original remains my favourite though.

Little update.

Feeling a little bit better today after two days of pure hell.
Had a good night sleep for once, so I'm very thankful for that.

Still some pain shooting out of my left side, so I know I'm not out of the woods yet and some more might be waiting for me. But at least I have a bit of a pause now.

Getting a new CT scan on Thursday, this time with injected contrast fluids to see things better, so I should know a bit more on Friday.

Thank you. 😊

I'm really hoping that the end of the tunnel is finally in sight as I'm completely exhausted from everything that has happened this past month...

Watched

Without a doubt, the BEST movie I've ever seen and will (?) ever see!

What a wild ride...never seen a $15 million budget used so well. The best effect work I've seen in ages.

And this film WILL make you FEAR Godzilla! Never before has he been depicted as such a force of nature. You actually care more for the humans this time around.

See it!

@Ductos
Even better than Shin Godzilla?
Really loved that one and I thought he was incredibly menacing.
Enjoyed the story as well, despite realising that the whole political thing might not have resonated as much with most in the west, like it did in Japan itself after the Fukushima disaster.

I hope to see it soon.
Haven't been up to watching a 3 hours film these past couple of weeks, but I really want to see this one.

I’m going to frame and put one of these up in my home office, but which do I choose? Persona 2 or Devil Summoner?

The first one is iconic, but I adore the design of the second one.

New video dropped and he's a long boy! The seldom-told history of and the in Europe. https://youtu.be/wBXNsZOAsAw

@bill
I just want to add that if anyone is hesitant about watching an 81 minute video, don’t be!
I’ve been watching it in bits and pieces today due to health issues and I have to say, this is a must watch for anyone interested in the NES in Europe.

I’m quite knowledgeable myself on the topic, and yet I’ve learned some fascinating facts today.

Brilliant piece of work!

@bill one thing that threw me off at first was how Pal B game were not compatible with Pal A consoles.
I have several French games myself as well as some small box German releases and they all work.

But then I remembered that decades ago,I had my NES modded so I could play games from the US.
So that has to be it. 😅
