Back in January Retro Games, creators of TheC64 series of emulation consoles announced an Atari 8bit version that appears inspired in all the right ways and I like what I see so far. As the name suggests, The 400 Mini takes its design cues from the original Atari […]
Final day at PAX and I’ve brought the family along to experience it themselves. A few less pictures posted here as a result but a lot more time spent walking around to let them experience what I’ve been doing alone for almost ten years (!) now. Sundays are […]
My second day at PAX Australia had taken a slightly different turn with a break in the middle where I left the venue to attend a Bethesda event in the Melbourne CBD. The event itself was actually a nice change as for a hour people could chill out […]

E3 might have disappeared but that’s not put a dent in Devolver Digital’s presentation for this year. Not only are there games to show such as Shadow Warrior 3, Carrion and Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout but also the interactive Devolverland Expo that’s free on Steam now and places […]
The Atari VCS/2600 was the first games console I was introduced to and would help lead to years of time spent playing on other Atari systems before I moved into the wider world of games. It’s also a case where there was a thirty year gap between my […]
