    That's lovely stuff Steve, especially the vinyl artwork. :cool:

    Bit of a samurai vibe going on there too with the bamboo mats. :)

    Forgot to post these pics yesterday. Love Sensible Soccer on the Amiga, so jumped at this extra reward on a Kickstarter book. Signed by Jon Hare, although it was supposed to be Stoo Cambridge.

    Glorious!! The finest footy game of them all (or at least until I discovered ISS).

    What's the book like itself? Was it pricey?

    No book yet, just sending the rewards. Hopefully the book will go out in a month or so.
    I paid £65 sterling for the book and canvas, and maybe 5-6 on top for postage.

    Picked up that Sonic Adventure 2 set a few years ago myself, it's lovely.

    I haven't been brave enough to take the disc out of the shrink wrapping yet either.

    Also thanks for the head's up about the new Data Discs... looks like I missed out on Golden Axe. :-(

    I'm hoping they restock soon.

    Check with Cidey, he might have bought a backup copy for safe keeping. :P

    It's grand, I just Tweeted them and they advised that I sign up to their mailing list as they regularly contact people just before they reissue stuff.

    It's all good.

    I did my first proper soldering job on my fancy new DJ turntable last night too so new Vinyl is proper order.

    Now... if only my preamp from China would get here faster...

    Sounds like you've gone full audiophile dude!

    Also, enjoyed your interview with Chris Barrie there recently, he seems a genuinely nice guy

    Absolute bargain, way under what it's worth, you've done very well there. Virtually all killer, no filler games.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    That was a stupidly good price, best deal I've seen on adverts in a very long time. Well done :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 567 ✭✭✭Burzum

    No way Mr E. (admin round and about boards) won't honour your offer, you're as safe as houses.

    Hey... so what is it?

    Well... considering it's already been mentioned on the thread I got to interview Chris Barrie... Rimmer himself recently. Check it out!

    *edit*

    I managed to get a bit of an exclusive for a sneak peak to Series 12 so... you might wanna check that out!

    Real life does tend to make demands on gaming time alright.
    But, with the Switch release imminent, is the WiiU now retro? :eek:


    Answer, no, not just yet!
    Sure the Wii hasn't made it to retro status!

    Amazon finally have WiiU versions of Breath of the Wild back on preorder - thank feck! Thought I might not be able to get a copy on release day. Ordered now.

    Kinda retro related, I got a nes decal for my Wii U, it's pretty cute.
    I got some for my PS3 too, just wanted to brighten up the dark consoles.

    This interview didn't go all 50 Shades afterwards did it?

    He didn't turn up at your gaff to get you to sign a contract before buggering you senseless?

    I jest....


    But, well done, great video, interesting questions too, nice one!

    I got a Chun Li gashapon this morning. I was looking at my Fighting Vipers on and was thinking I'd like other fighting characters so hoping to get Sarah from VF next.
