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.

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.

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.

Interrupting this period of blog related inactivity to bring you the latest status update on the situation. Namely that there will be yet more exciting blog related inactivity! For a few more days at least anyway as I enjoy some much needed downtime. Until then consider the gentle words above and the delicate wisdom they impart to you the reader. Laters.
