☆ Has Anyone Ever Told YOU That You Are "Too Old To Still Play Video Games"? ☆ #GamersUnite

Society and people in general are odd sometimes........

The expectation is that once you become a dad and reach the age of 30 then you should spend your evenings sitting on the sofa and let your brain turn to mush whilst you absorb the amazing television that is up for offer such as depressing soaps (Eastenders), watching other people watch telly on telly (Gogglebox) and cheap to make reality rubbish (<insert an awful example of a terrible reality TV show on ice, in the jungle, dancing>).

☆ Find Out What Makes It Into My Recreated Retrogaming Bedroom ☆ #Retrogaming #GamersUnite

Whilst growing up and discovering video games my bedroom was my video games den. 

It was a place where I kept all my video gaming treasures and a place where I spent countless hours discovering new lands and new characters whilst saving the world or managing my favourite football team to glory.

My bedroom as youngster holds a dear place in my heart and rightly so.

☆ The Video Games That Tickle My Funny Bone ☆ #Retrogaming #GamersUnite

Video games as a medium has often struggled to convey comedy and especially in early hardware as the range of expressions was very limited so humour was a tough ask.

Comedy in video games has often been a rare commodity over the years but there is a genuine comedy to be found in a fair few games.
