☆ 2016 -The PS4 Diaries Part 5 "Halfway Through My Uncharted Journey" ☆ #PS4 #GamersUnite
As a late comer to the Uncharted series my voyage of Uncharted Discovery has been so much fun!
The Uncharted collection that came with my beautiful PS4 has been the source of so much enjoyment already as I have battled my way through Uncharted : Drake’s Fortune and I’m now halfway through Uncharted 2: Among Thieves.

☆ The Count Lucanor - "A Boy And His Rabbid Goats!" ☆ #GameDev #GamersUnite #PixelArt
Last night a video game stole my heart and then messed with my brain!
The Count Lucanor is one surprise that I wasn’t expecting when I loaded it up from Steam.
When I took a peek at the screen shots I was thinking it looks like a nice pixel art style Action RPG.
When it started up I was hooked from moment one.

☆ 2016 -The PS4 Diaries Part 4 "My Return To Ravenholm Moment" ☆ #PS4 #GamersUnite
For me Ravenholm in Half Life 2 is one of the pinnacles in video gaming from the last 30 years.
The level typifies the classy way that Half Life 2 was constructed and implemented.
There was tension, there was terror and there was the Gravity Gun and some handy buzzsaw blades.

☆ At Full Velocity With Velocity Stream ☆ #GameDev #GamersUnite
I’ve had a few days to play Velocity Stream and I can safely say that this game is something special.
The initial view leads you to think of Wipeout and F-Zero which are those awesome futuristic racers that all other futuristic racers tend to be compared to.

☆ A NEW Super Famicom (Kind Of!) ☆ #Retrogaming #GamersUnite #SNES
Everyone who knows me knows that I love the Super Nintendo.
I have written numerous articles on the beloved Super Nintendo and my enthusiasm for this king of consoles knows no ends!
Well somehow and for some reason, this little news nugget managed to slip through my SNES net!

☆ Grab Your Top Hat & Jump Into Your Very Own IronCast PS4 Mech ☆@RipstoneGames #PS4 #GameDev
Let me just state straight away that IronCast oozes class.
From the start it feels good as it sets the scene for a brilliant video game.

☆ Retrogaming VS Current Gen Gaming (a happy harmony) ☆ #retrogaming #gamersunite #gamedev
When I set out to make the Games Freezer website I was firmly in the retrogaming camp as I had become disillusioned with the current generation of video games
(this was XBOX360&PS4 era).
I wanted to create a space to share my passion for the video games of old and all the cool culture surrounding the retrogaming scene.

☆ Ironcast Is Coming To PS4 & XBOX One ☆ #PS4 #GameDev
Ironcast caught my eye immediately as a fusion of a few styles. Take Steampunk and add it into a Victorian London landscape. When I saw the screens I immediately thought of Walker on the Commodore Amiga.
Throw into that cool mix a ‘match 3’ game play mechanic and it would appear that on the surface of it you get a an interesting twist on a few styles of videogame.

☆ 2016 -The PS4 Diaries Part 3 "Me,Myself & My PS4 Cam" ☆ #PS4 #GamersUnite
In doing the Games Freezer website for the last 3 years I have always wanted to branch out to doing Games Freezer YouTube videos.
I’ve always had lots of ideas of where I could take it but never really had the time to do the videos and the website.
Now I’ve got my PS4 it feels like I have the opportunity to finally do what I’ve always wanted to do.

☆ What Would Your Ultimate Video Games Arcade Look Like? ☆ #Retrogaming #Arcade
As the 30 somethings of this world like me begin to yearn for more nostalgia in the form of retro video games and the experiences associated with them there seems to be a growing need for the gap to be filled with retro gaming related products such as dedicated emulation machines that play the original cartridges for various systems.
These systems are not the original but they offer a way of tapping into the awesome video games of yesteryear without utilising the original hardware and without the need to dedicate a whole Ikea unit to the 10 consoles and leads required to play from the original hardware.
There’s a fix in place for the retro gamers who want to get their console dose but it seems there is still a gap in the market for a genuinely brilliant arcade experience from the 1980’s.

☆ My Favourite Street Fighter 2 Memories Inspired By Retro Asylum ☆ #retrogaming @RetroAsylum1 @RetroRic79
Listening to the latest Retro Asylum podcast which is totally dedicated to Street Fighter 2 has made me realise how much of an effect the game had on me.
There's a brilliant appearance from @retroric on the podcast that brought it all back home to me.
After listening to the podcast I felt compelled to write a Street Fighter 2 article to get these memories off of my chest.

Amiga Tinted Specs
Listening to the Retro Asylum Commodore Amiga Bonanza podcast this morning I came over all misty eyed as I heard the members of the podcast panel take me back to the 90's Commodore Amiga scene, it really brought back home to me how cool the machine was and still is.

☆ 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>).

☆ My Favourite Video Game Shop Keepers ☆ #Retrogaming #GamersUnite
Whether you are playing a platform game, a first person shooter or a role playing game there is generally always a shop keeper looking to take that gold off of your hands that you have just slayed dragons and out ran bandits in order to collect.
