notes from the early 90's

There is so much win in this aggressively anti-Gameboy ad pushing the then-new Atari Lynx to the forefront of our tiny little minds, seriously divert your gaze to the words below, you can't beat blurb of this quality...


Woah! Those 'high definition' SuperGraphics must have fucked up their sense of what was real big time, Matrix style. Special mention must also go to Random Man On A Surfboard, hailing all the way from California Games, California presumably, who the fuck knows/cares? Not the copywriters in that advertising department thats for sure!

 
There he is, dangling impossibly on a surfboard suspended in mid-air, caring not for inferior handheld gaming devices like the total god he is. I don't know about you but I totally want to buy the shit out of an Atari Lynx now.

save the save game

Due to a miscalculation on my part, tonight's update will be nothing short of epic. No wait that's wrong, what I meant to say was that it'll be more short than epic. Had an evening of casual larks and drinks over Battlefield 4 last night and I've spent most of today recovering from it. The drinks that is, as opposed to the Battlefield 4.

crossover mania

So there's this teaser site ticking away the day, hours and minutes to something almost very Fallout related. There is the collective hope that Fallout 4 is on the horizon. Will it? Can it? Be it? Having played this series since its first atmospheric outing into the future past I can say I am very happy at the prospect. Very few fictional worlds bring it together like this one does, a retro future 1950's America warped, twisted and annihilated by nuclear hellfire but still very much there when you wipe away the ashes. It's bleak, funny and demented and if there's more coming I will be very much doing my happy dance.

hot screenshot action #1

Happy November all! It's that special time of year where everything gets cold, sparkly and barren. Crispy leaves on the ground, a bite in the air and a wellspring of reflection as the year comes to a close. Naturally my thoughts turn to my year in gaming and soon there will be my third annual retrospective of everything I've played this year. I know, I know you're excited dear conception of a reader but for now I feel like sharing a screenshot or three from a game I played a few months ago but haven't really talked about around these here parts.
