Par for the course when it comes to 2020, but I noticed the date today and couldn’t fathom where the year has gone! I’ve not posted for so long and as such, I wish to post an update to fill in some of the blanks. With everything going on in the world, I’m one of the lucky ones where I’ve…
Really enjoying my arcade racers/kart games at present, very easy to pick up and play in short bursts around the lockdown workload and child care. Saw “ONRUSH” fro the Xbox One brand new for £6.95 at TheGameCollection.co.uk, so took a punt on it – will report back.
Finally got my hands on Klonoa for the Wii. Heard good things about this platformer, a remake of the original PS1 title and finally found it at a reasonable price and pulled the trigger. I’ve played the first 3 levels and I’m enjoying it. It is also something Jasper can enjoy watching as he plays with his toys and books…
The initial pickups for my new console have now arrived, but due to the outbreak, the seller of the console can’t post it until this situation improves. Shame as I got some of these games with this lockdown spell in mind, but hey, first world problems given the situation in the world. Can’t wait to try these!
I bagged a Wii U on eBay at the weekend, the Zelda limited edition one. It’s not going to arrive for a while now (perhaps months) due to the lockdown we find ourselves in here in the UK and complications this has caused on the seller’s side. But I got a good deal on it and given what’s going on…
The Marseille mCable arrived from the States today. Hooked it up to the set up in the lounge via the new HDMI splitter box and put it through its paces. More to come on this in the future, but it really does work, and the further back through the console generations you go the bigger difference it makes. The only…
As one of my favourite systems and largest game libraries my Xbox 360 core system has been thoroughly put through its paces since I got it on launch. It suffered the red ring of death early on, and hats off to the way Microsoft went about repairing that and getting my console up and running again. It’s been thrown in…
Had my eye on this since it was first announced and today it arrived in the post. until 2019 I was still getting by with the 2 Mega Drive pads that we got when we got our Mega Drive at Christmas as kids. They are still doing their job, but have taken a beating and both rattle when shaken (standard).…
I got the Gamecube when The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker came out, I got the platinum console that came bundled with the game, a few other games that my university roommates picked out and grabbed 3 extra control pads from our local Toys R Us. ALOT of fun was had on this console at uni. I was recently…
