The British gaming scene in the Eighties was exciting to be part of. For teenagers, coders ruled the world... They Were Our Gods.

Really, now that we're almost all confined to barracks for the foreseeable future, it must be time for @SyfyUK to have a Firefly marathon.

Hey! A ton of devs have been repricing their games as free to give folks staying at home more things to play during all this. If you're grabbing these games, keep a list. Put them all in their own folder. But, when you can, after this is over, go back and support those folks.

I've always preferred Sega to Nintendo, but I now have an Animal Crossing themed Switch console (and the game, of course). However, I find it slightly ironic that once I buy Panzer Dragoon Remake today, I will own four Sega games and one Nintendo game for my Switch!

A sci-fi movie directed by Taika Waititi? Sign me up! I'm sure he could get the dynamic right between Jessica Chastain and Kevin James.

Art was never my thing, but I have enthusiasm... and a Paradroid t-shirt. #AnimalCrossing #ACNH #NintendoSwitch

Regular coffee drinkers, what's this "daily cup" thing? Is this something that's been imposed because of the lockdown? Because I've never had *a* cup of coffee per day in my life.
Regular coffee drinkers, your daily cup of coffee is not actually making you more alert. It is only counteracting the caffeine withdrawal that has occurred overnight.

🤗| Remember that we did three new Power Packs full of games and other cool stuff. They’re free and you can play them however you prefer to play your C64 games. Full instructions and an inlay if you want to make a box, too. Or just download and play: https://t.co/VER1TnrRtU

Is it bad that since I got my Animal Crossing Switch yesterday, with an online membership, I've played Super Punch Out!! more than I've played Animal Crossing (to be fair, my youngest has played loads of AC)?

Currently only £4.64 to buy too, which is excellent value for an excellent game.
I haven't seen anybody mention this yet, but Horizon Chase Turbo is free this week on Steam, so if you're looking for a very solid arcade racer in the vein of Outrun, Cruis'n, etc., I highly recommend checking it out
