Who says games are for kids?

Probably the same guys who say comics and cartoons are for kids...

Well I guess this 50 something father of two, artist, gamer, Content creator, comic reading, movie loving and general all round nerd didn't get the memo! 😜
Thank you kindly! 😊

I really do need to get some backs on the units and light strips set up though.

Repost with an iconic fictional band...

Either the four of them as a team, or Sun Wukong's golden crown... complete with Tripitaka's tightening spell...

Both bands, and both EPIC!

Currently going through an OG Xbox phase, it seems!

Today's little haul pushes past the 100 physical games for the system now. 🎮🤓👍

When in Spoons, do as the Spooners do...

2 for £6.40 you say?

Well, why not, eh?

And yes, I mixed em together...

Blood orange and mango cider should be a real thing.

It's pretty damn good! 🍺😁👍

I am shocked by my recent discovery of the European Right to be forgotten law...

Upon recollecting some dark memories from my past and a friend who was taken too soon from this world, being both sexually assaulted and murdered in 1997.

I was unable to find a picture of the monster that killed her.

It's fair to say that Mastertronic, like many other video game publishers of their time, didn't exactly tread carefully around copyrighted material...

Blatant plagiarism was not beneath them and they didn't exactly hide it much!

Here's a couple of examples of their Boris Vallejo "Inspired" work!
