We've done plenty on Sir Clive Sinclair in the past, but we've never really looked at the man himself...we've looked more at his image. This documentary examines the man himself, and looks at a whole bunch of products that AREN'T the Spectrum - from other computers like the ZX80, ZX81 and QL, to th...

Finally, it's August's Patreon Q&A video! Along with a general update on what's happening now that $500 has been met. There's questions about the Bitmaps! Oliver Twins! Arcades! Gremlin! And the hot button issue on everybody's lips, Chocolate Fudge Cake! Enjoy!
Welcome to a glorious time, when the shelves were full to bursting with football games for your PlayStation! You weren't stuck with either Pro Evolution Soccer or FIFA - there were so many...some good, some real bad. Here's a look back at the likes of Actua Soccer, This is Football, Three Li...
I've been having a lil' break! So, just to tide you over, here's a little top 10 video of my own favourite Psygnosis games - I played so many great ones over the course of making the big Psygnosis video that I thought I could do it no problem. Thank you so much for making the Story and Games...
Hi folks! Just wanted to put a quick note thanking all of you so much for allowing me to hit that $500 goal on Patreon...that's amazing. As I said previously, I never thought I'd hit the $100 goal so to reach $500 is fantastic. Whether you're donating $1, $10 or anything at all, yo...

Psygnosis rose from the ashes of Imagine, seemingly with the aim to put everything that wrong right again. Which they did, with interest. This is the story of their dominance over an untold amount of classic games: Lemmings, Shadow of the Beast, Wipeout and everything inbetween. No company l...
Slightly later than usual, but here it is! Get your questions up here, and they will be answered in a video at the end of the month (well, it'll probably be out on the 3rd September but hey-ho :)). Go go go!

Hard Drivin' is quite possibly one of the most maligned games there is on the Mega Drive, usually only brought up so people can have a right good laugh at 3D that's 25 years old...but bah - I've always enjoyed it. A lot. And so, in this review, I'm going to defend Hard Drivin' for all it's w...
Today, we have a little review of a football game that just about everyone who had a Mega Drive probably knows...it's World Cup Italia '90! And...well, it's ugly, a game that plays terrible football in every possible way. You won't find any blast processing here...so why on earth does it strike su...

It's another big Spectrum software documentary! This time, it's a company that burnt very bright for a very short period - Imagine. After just one year where they looked like the biggest company of them all and released games like Arcadia and Ah Diddums, they tore themselves apart with bad managemen...

Time for a quite strange review...Takeshi's Challenge for the Famicom. A game designed by someone who doesn't like video games who also happens to be Takeshi Kitano, comedian, actor, painter, and filmmaker extraordinaire. The result is, just as it says, a challenge. And one hell of a trip. Let'...

In the late 80's, a group of Sega composers who between them wrote the soundtracks for Space Harrier, Out Run, Super Hang-On, Thunder Blade, After Burner and many others - music that helped to change the very idea of what video game music could be, decided to form a house band! This is a ...

Here we are then, at the last part of the Peter Molyneux saga. It's all about 22cans...which means Godus and Godus Wars. It means Curiosity. It means a Kickstarter nightmare, life-changing promises that are not delivered on, a bruising interview, and the destruction of Molyneux's reputation. Goo...

Hey folks! I thought I'd give you guys a little early screening of this, the second bit of VG music that's going to go up probably at some point next week. It's a guitar cover! I've changed the layout a bit from the cover of Magical Sound Shower that I put up, so would appreciate s...

The fall begins. Part 3 of the Peter Molyneux saga goes all the way up to the end of Lionhead itself, from a final highpoint of Fable II, to the botched up Fable III and the aborted Milo and Kate. Molyneux leaves to form 22cans and Lionhead are closed after the cancellation of Fable: Legends...a l...

This first half details Peter's attempt to set up another great
independent studio, and it's ever closer relationship with Microsoft.

I wasn't sure if I was even going to be able to write anything, as I've been way too out of it. An entire ocean may separate me from what happened in Orlando, but those were my brothers and sisters in that...

Welcome to the first part of the rise and fall of Peter Molyneux! This one's all about the Bullfrog Years...aka, the good times. The studio that released Populous, Syndicate, Theme Park, Magic Carpet...the masters of the Amiga. This was how Molyneux built such a reputation...we'll be looking at a...

As one of the best platformers of the 90's, Flashback deserves to be revisited...especially because we're now looking at the whole series - Fade to Black on the PS1, the cancelled Flashback Legends on GBA, and Flashback HD. It all makes up for another European software story, surrounding Delphine S...

We're back with Eternal Champions again! The classic fighting game that was almost up there with Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat, but was then snuffed out cruelly. We've got the original game, the awesome Challenge From The Dark Side...
