I don’t think any other title of a game has ever conjured up things in me that I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream has. When I was a 14-15 year old kid and watched my brother play this game the title alone deeply affected me, it conjures up an awful image, it’s a title that's creepy before you even play the game or read the short story. It is a powerful title, but when you learn what it relates to in the story - its power is magnified tenfold.
I’ve experienced the game three times, once as previously stated, then again in my 20s, and now in my 30s, and each time my love for it grows, it is such an interesting and engaging story, based on Harlan Ellison's short story of the same name, it takes everything that's great about that story and adds to it.
Rich gets on to the PC to play Dinopunk: The Cacops Adventure which is a delightful 2D retro platformer that is set in a dystopian world ruled by dinosaurs.
Rich plays as Cacops, a small amphibious dinosaur with the ability to control water. Watch as Rich tries to recover the stolen egg from a group of evil ninjas while navigating a world filled with obstacles, and enemies.
I've been yearning for a PS2 for some time now and I have been looking on Facebook Marketplace for a while to see if I could pick up a bargain. Very recently I spotted a £20 PlayStation 2 that was being cleared from a garage with no controller, no leads and a memory card. I felt lucky so I ventured into the murky world of FB Market Place and headed out in my car to snare myself a catch. For posterity I decided to capture my process of cleaning her up and getting her working.
The long term plan is to play more PS2 games and hoover up some discs from the local car boot sale, the short term plan is to buy a controller.
Take a look at my video as I bring my PS2 home and get her settled in:
