Playing Silent Hill visual novel on GBA! It is a fan translation because it never was officially released outside of Japan. It's fun! #silenthill

My collection of Mana games. In my opinion, quite a flawed series, but some are really good. Secret of Mana will always be my favourite.

You like Zelda type games? Check out The Knightling! Charming as hellll, fun to play, and also funny! #theknightling

Made by Twirlbound Studios, a small studio. Quite a feat.

Video games of horror movies are not very common. We recently also got one from A Quiet Place. What's your favourite?

Cronos: The New Dawn is the new game by Bloober Team. Dark, weird sci-fi horror. I love it.

It feels like Returnal in atmosphere but with Dead Space gameplay. Which is amazing!

What's your favourite Silent Hill game?
I think for me it'll always be 2, but I love almost every other entry in the series as well. #silenthill #konami #horrorgame

Hard to choose! Fall of Cybertron and Devastation are my two favourite ones, but it's hard to pick one over the other. Those Cybertron games by High Moon are fan-tas-tic and really easy to pick up and play. Devastation requires some practice and is not to everyone's liking.

The last 2 2d Megaman X games. Not as good as what came before, but still good!

Busy with some big ass Japanese Transformers! The quality of these toys is amazing.

I need to write some stuff about these for my website, and post stuff about them too on social media.

Any fans of The Thing? The movie is my favourite horror movie of all time. The video game is pretty good as well! #thething

Bought some stuff at my local retro game seller Feniks Gameshop. Most of this is for my kids.

The most lucky find is that Transformers Director's Cut, as that particular version only came out in the UK.

All Robocop games! This is pretty much all of the different games out there. Which one is your favourite?

Rogue Flight is a new, Star Fox like, anime style space shooter! How awesome is that.

Any fans of Acquire Corp gamestudio? I certainly am, ever since their first game: Tenchu!

I like Flashback 2, but it's rough. Feels like a demo almost.

Retrogamepapa @retrogamepapa.bsky.social · Jul 12

Haven't tried it out yet! My guess would be: yes, but I'm not sure. I first want to finish Flashback 2, as that's a prequel.

Got some new ps4 games in!

Flashback I already own several times, but couldn't resist it for ps4 for such a cheap price. I very rarely want to own a game multiple times, so Flashback is an exception.

Fell Seal is an amazing tactical RPG, which I didn't own physically yet.

Rest in Peace, Mark Snow. The man was a huge inspiration for me when I started out, and made me want to make my own music. Thanks for all the amazing scores.

Snow made the music for the games in this pic!
