It all started way back in the early 80s and I largely missed the mid-90s console golden age, so don’t expect Megadrive nostalgia. Consoles have never really been my natural home.

FAVOURITE GAME OF ALL TIME
If you were a kid in the late 80s who enjoyed Dungeons & Dragons, seeing Dungeon Master was a dream come true. I first read about it in Dragon Magazine and was intent on getting an Atari ST just to play it. It felt like someone had reached directly into my brain and built a game specifically for me. I wasn’t disappointed.
LONG LIVE HALK THE BARBARIAN
BIGGEST GAMING REGRET
I absolutely love emulating its games, to me that console represents the absolute peak of pure, joyful playability.
