๐ฎ๐ The Best Video Games Console Christmas Presents From 1979 to 2001 ๐ฎ๐ #Retrogaming #GamersUnite
My sister got a Pong machine in the early 80s for Christmas and I can barely remember it but after that Christmas, I was always eager for a Christmas video game or a console to be popped into my Christmas stocking.
There was the classic Christmas when I was desperate for a ZX Spectrum +2 but Dad got me an ATARI XEGS but I loved it!
Christmas is a great time for a gamer as you seem to get that bit of extra downtime to play your new games before your next helping of cold turkey in a roll.
Let's kick off our Christmas look by hurtling back in time to December 1979...

๐ Britt’s Games of the Year (& Honourable Mentions) 2020 ๐ #IndieGames #GameDev #GamersUnite
This year has been a bit of a different one for me in that some titles that really drew me in were quite flawed and so playing through them was occasionally a bittersweet experience but they made a mark that I can’t ignore.
This isn’t a ‘top ten’ list in any order but rather a list of games that still spring to mind as we approach the end of a pretty challenging and tumultuous year.
Weather-wise, it’s a miserable day here in Cardiff so to brighten things up, let’s talk video games.

⚔️๐ก️ Oceanhorn 2: Knights of the Lost Realm | Review | Nintendo Switch | "A solid title that just misses the mark, for me" ⚔️๐ก️ @cornfox #IndieGames #GameDev
Game Title: Oceanhorn 2: Knights of the Lost Realm
Platform Reviewed: Switch
Rating: 6.5/10
I’m always dubious about mobile ports to the Switch, having been burned by some pretty lazy examples in the past. With Oceanhorn 2, however, I was so taken by the trailer that I had to have a crack at it, as I fancied an open-world adventure that I could play on the move (well…in bed).
Whilst the game is pretty, runs well and appears to tick all the boxes, it, unfortunately, felt a touch bland and as such, I couldn’t get fully hips deep in the experience.

๐ฎ๐น️๐ฐ The Ultimate Games Freezer Retro Console & Computers eBay Sold Prices Guide ๐ฎ๐น️๐ฐ #RetroGaming #GamersUnite
I'm always on the lookout for retro gaming related items to buy, even though I haven't really got the room and I generally settle for emulation over physical hardware due to space constraints.
But sometimes I just like looking around eBay and fantasising about owning an AMSTRAD CPC and playing football manager 2 on it all day long.
