☆A Retrogaming Tribute To Rik Mayall☆ #GamersUnite

Growing Up On A Healthy Diet Of  

The Young Ones & BOTTOM 

The Games Freezer Team Were Deeply Saddened To Hear Of The Passing Of A Comedy Hero In The Form Of Rik Mayall…..

His partnership with Ade Edmondson formed the basis of a love of silly comedy that lives on to this day....

Not to mention Rik's cameo role in Blackadder as Flashheart was truly epic and the stuff of legend…..

It is with a sad heart that we salute you 

Rik Mayall….. R.I.P

In honour of Rik we have dug into the vaults to somehow dig out some Rik Mayall related retrogaming goodness in the form of the following……

☆I've Fallen Back In Love With Championship Manager☆ @champman #GamersUnite

I'm a long time Championship Manager Fan, since the days of CM93 on Amiga and also an ancient Football Manager fan since the days FM on the Speccy.

With that in mind I've seen both series evolve immensely over the last 30 years...

The management sim genre has seen a shift each time towards more involving and complex gameplay whereby you can have a say in literally every part of 'your club' and how it's run.

That kind of gameplay has meant heaven for gamers with a whole weekend to orchestrate their attack on the division title and cup glory...

But as I've gotten older I've had less free time to plot Spurs' rise to Champions League grandeur and therefore haven’t purchased any of the recent FM or CM games because I know it's going to take me 8 hours to sort out my transfer targets, training regime and backroom staff.

I've wanted to go back to the days of CM93 where you pick your team make a few signings and away you go...
