Thankyou! I really appreciate that. I'm hoping adding them one by one will motivate me to continue filling the gaps i've been meaning to fille for a few years now. I too used to have a big collection of games and had to give them up after moving countries a few times. I started collecting them again about ten years ago- but have had to slow down due to the cost.

Exactly the same! Everything on eBay is so expensive now even the most rubbish or most popular of games.

Yes, it went from being a fun hobby where you could pick up an old DOS game for 20-30 dollars australian that someone else didn't want- to being a collector driven market where people are trying to flog bargain bin relreleases of "rare" games in terrible condition for 50-100 dollars plus postage.

New review: Creatures! AI related screed at the beginning of this article which I think pays off, but included a link to skip it if you have had enough of AI slop related stuff this week.

I gotta play this, it looks fantastic, and the writeup is great, too! I always thought this was just a random Catz/Dogz type thing with weirder little guys.

Yeah I paint the minis myself. You don't need great skills to start painting, the good thing about paints is that if you make a mistake you can always paint over :).

New review of a childhood favourite, Circus Charlie! I honestly thought no one had ever heard of this but it seems like it's a dark horse. Don't be ashamed of your Circus Charlie past, people!

Can't believe you beat me to reviewing a MSX game! In my defence, my MSX2 is currently busted and needs new capacitors. I remember a friend of mine had a GBA pirate cart filled with NES roms and that's where I discovered Circus Charlie. Cute clowns will always be appreciated in this household.

Haha I had no idea there was an MSX version (or any other version)! Once I started playing it I was like damn should have done another collab because it has nuances to the controls that other versions don't, which you always manage to interrogate very well.

New review up of Jurassic Park: The Game. I loved it, despite it being one of the most hateable games I've ever played in my life.

The less hands-on controls feel, the less I feel like I'm even playing the game at all, so QTEs also don't do it for me. Less scriptedness please!
Updated the Creatures page with a bit of fun :)
