My big box Half Life. I got this around release and remember vividly what an incredible experience it was. The game was a total game changer and I’ve still no idea how they managed to top it with HL2. No wonder they’re too chicken to do a 3rd 😛😂
I beat Super Metroid on original Hardware. I’m not very good at these games as I always get lost . Obv this is one of the best games ever made and no matter how many times I’ve played it it’s always a new experience for me. 10/10
On this day – July 26, 2013 Pikmin 3 launched in Europe on the Wii U. A vibrant return to real-time strategy and some of the most stunning visuals on the system. Small creatures, big charm. Another Wii U classic that found more success on the Switch.
Delighted to finally have Panzer Dragoon Saga in my collection. It’s a game I’ve wanted for many years and really only got properly serious on looking for a good deal on a copy the last year. Last week I missed out on a non sleeve version I was close to buying as I was becoming…
A goal has been accomplished and a very special game added to the collection
On this day – July 25, 2003 Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire launched in Europe on the Game Boy Advance. The Hoenn region introduced double battles, natures, and over 130 new Pokémon—marking the dawn of Gen III
I’ve really enjoyed this episode. Interesting that it was initially planned for the M2, I had no idea. If anybody hasn’t listened to these 2 dudes before then, It’s also on podcast form if like me, you want to listen whilst on a morning walk and need some no screen time 🙂
And then there’s Power Stone! Capcom weren’t new to 3D fighters but what they did with this beauty was new. Brand, SPANKING new!! Fresh, fast and frenetic from the get go it remains one of Dreamcast’s most playable games! Find out more in the new vid! tinyurl.com/PowerStoneGFA

Question in relation to PAL Saturn cases. Was there any pattern or system to the box type? There are 3 that I can think of with the card front cover, the plastic slim box and the chunky almost Megadrive type case (EA games only?) Then I see Nights that has a plastic slim box…
PlayStation really changed up game adverts in the 90s. Who knew not showing consoles and games would sell consoles and games 😂
Wipeout - Sega Saturn I loved these games. They get bashing for the frame rate and lack of transparency effects but as a kid I honestly didn’t care. Great memories playing these.
Pre-orders are open for the Atari 2600+ PAC-MAN Collection! 🕹️ link.atari.com/PAC-MAN
Decided to sell some games in my collection. I had no idea Black Label Hogs of War was in such demand .
Okay, I’ve narrowly missed out on a copy of Panzer Dragoon Saga for £260. It was minus the sleeve but everything else looked great. I’d been kicking myself for days and now bought 4 Saturn games today to make up for it. I felt sorry for myself and I’m not done 😂 Why didn’t…
