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

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On

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

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On

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.

The last week of my life has been spent obsessing over reviews and pictures of PS4 compatible headsets. 

This is my first foray into video games specific headsets and I didn't truly appreciate just how much there was to consider when making this purchase!!

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.

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>).
