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.

HEY! Huge thanks to Wired Productions and Rogue Sun because today I have my very first video game credit.

Something which might be small for those properly "in-industry" but this is huge for me after being a passionate gamer for 35(ish) years.

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?

It's very important to me that you know whenever I write the word "books" I want you to read it as Peter Falk's Princess Bride delivery of "When I was your age, television was called books".

Also that when my wife says "as you wish" I see her as Cary Elwes (not entirely bad)

Hey Bandits! Hope you've all had a wonderful bank holiday Monday (if you're in the UK).

Sorry for the quiet one, today. I have been sinking myself into a family outing, but I have also been delving into Theme Park World and wanted to share some memories with you 🥰

I travelled back in time by a couple of decades tonight. Felt like it, anyway. Some absolute beauts on the playlist and thought if share with you.

I think this might be the best game manual on my shelves at the moment. Do you miss manuals as much as me?

Did you ever get around to this one? I've dipped back again. Arrakis, Dune, Desert Planet, and the excellent John Rhys-Davies.

A lot of history with this title and the RTS genre and even back on PS1 it was a classic. The original Dune would be the template for C&C, from the same Westwood Studios 💕

She was, and still is, incredible. One of the best. Such a simple game, but Vib Ribbon stole my heart.

This is the only bit of clickbait I have ever put out... but I do believe that it was for a good and worthy cause.

Good morning you adorable bunch of lovely people. I'd love to know what you're playing today!

Live streamers with cosy, inclusive communities, have you got anything good on? Let's be friends! What's hot in your world today?

Hey and folks. What are you playing / streaming at the moment, and should I check it out?

My current playlist includes Crow Country and Manor Lords for review, and Tenchu and Horizon Zero Dawn for fun.

I am not 100% that Crow Country was the best choice for games to relax in bed with. In the dark, dark bedroom. Eep.

In our mid-disc break it's very likely that we're going to head into #Discworld II for our Retro Sunday night streams. But is there something in here you'd like us to move on to after?

If you'd like to see more of Manor Lords, join me on Tuesday as we build a completely fresh settlement.

My little town of Zweiau is going well currently, with 36 families currently loving village life.

If you're a fan of Horizon Zero Dawn then you. Might like this screenshot. Perfect for mobile wallpapers and lock screens. Thought I'd share it with the world ❤️

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.

Hey Bandits, what are you playing today? I've been thrashing Manor Lords, B-Movie, Ready or Not and the very original Command and Conquer.

A heady mix of medieval settlement building, alien abduction, tactical SWAT action and bad guy operations.

What's the most outrageous price gouging you've done in a video game?

Just look at this burger stand! Ignore the fact that it's selling sandwiches (no sides) for $10 on top of an already overzealous ticket price.

Three new pickups at today's car boot sale. Three that I've been trying to get hold of for some time 😍🥰

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.

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

What was your first online PvP experience? For me, it was C&C Tiberian Sun, on a 56k modem some time in 1999. After that I had a long gap until Splinter Cell double Agent in 2006!

This show is too good. Prime Video knocking the hell out of Fallout ❤️😍

What do we reckon? Fallout 4 fresh playthrough stream tomorrow?
