Just started watching Dirty Business on C4 and low and behold, up pops Henry from Kingdom Come Deliverance! #dirtybusiness #henry #kcd

The Sentinel on the BBC Micro (and others) was a brilliant 3D strategy game featuring 10,000 (!) levels. A highly innovative game and great fun. Written by the great Geoff Crammond #thesentinel #bbcmicro

It was always a treat to see a Joust cabinet in an arcade as it seemed to be a fairly rare beast. Me and my big bro were big fans (my bro even wrote a version for the BBC Micro!) #joust #eggs #arcades

Talisman, the greatest fantasy board game of all time? I think so, apart from when you get cursed by the hag! #talisman #cursedbyhag #fantasy #boardgames

Another Warhammer game I was very fond of back in the day, Warhammer 40k. More excellent artwork, I always played the Orcs but they did seem a bit underpowered against my brothers Blood Angels space marines! #warhammer #40k #orcs #spacemarines

While a lot of people swore by D&D, me and my mates were hugely into Warhammer Fantasy Role Play. Look at that fantastic cover art! #roleplay #warhammer #d&d

Magic Sand. A fun but completely useless creation from the 80s. Quite possible toxic as well but no one cared about that in those days 🤪 #magicsand #80s #it's #itsdry

I don't think there is anyone who owned an Amiga who's not familiar with this image. Deluxe Paint was a superb release for those digital arty types! #deluxepaint #amiga #commodore

I spent way too many hours in my late teens and early 20s playing Steve Jacksons Car Wars, Truck Stop was one of the best expansions. Great memories of recreating the end of Mad Max 2! #Stevejackson #carwars #truckstop #carwars #madmax

Who owned this behemoth of a board game? I always wanted this but never had it or even played it. Was it as good as I thought it would be? #darktower #boardgames #electronic #1980s

Left a bit, turn right, side step right... i mean left.... oops you are dead. Great days watching this on telly with a bag of Skips! #knightmare #tv

That's from multiple slaps from Karen. Sorry, I mean Baroness Brady 🤣🤣

Who remembers this early shoot em up game, Menace, on the Amiga? It was one of my favourites early in my Amiga journey! Menace was developed by DMA Design and published by Psygnosis. #amiga #menace #shooters #dmadesign #psygnosis

What a weird bunch of people in the Apprentice. They look like Skyrim characters you have created when you are in a bit of a hurry lol #theapprentice

Morning retro game fans. Arcadia was an early release on the Speccy and i can still hear those awesome splatty sound fx! Brilliant #speccy #zxspectrum #arcadia #splat

As a kid, this Star Wars sit down arcade game had to be the most immersion experience going. And every kid wanted to be Red 5! #starwars #redfive #arcademachine #oneinamillion

Morning retro game fans! So you thought Dark Souls is hard? It has nothing on Ghouls for the BBC Micro. Modern gamers don't know the pain we went through! #retro #bbcmicro #darksouls #hard

Loved this game!

Morning Amiga fans, heres a cracking arcade racer from 1991, Vroom. Super fast and super fun! #amiga #games #vroom #1990s #retro

Today, i will mostly be #pootling

Really don't want James to leave The Traitors, he is just so entertaining! And, my wife said he's the type of bloke I would make friends with down the pub haha 🤣 #thetraitors

Trump really is trying to destroy America. He has ginned up this idea that there are Red states and Blue states, instead of the United States. I think (and hope) that we will outlast him. One year down, three to go.

JRPGs on PlayStation were just on another level, y'all. There are just so many classic top-tier titles available for it.

Watching my second favourite Christmas film (after Die Hard!). There's Something in the Barn! #Christmas #movies #elf #horror

Classic C&VG Christmas cover from 1982. I definitely remember this one, which shows my age 🫢 #computers #80s #c&vg #magazine #8bit

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I have just started playing Starfield and I am really enjoying it so far. Bit of a slow burn, but somehow that makes it even better! #starfield #space #pirates #spaceships @bethesda.net #Bethesda

Blagger - BBC Micro. These early platformers are so great, they definitely have a distinctive look. Usually super hard and frustrating! #blagger #bbcmicro #retrogames #8bit

Another cracking board game from my youth! Dungeon Quest is a great game where the board was created by small squares, so every game is different! #boardgames #dungeonquest

Love this!
