My name is Andy and I'm from Belgium. Born in '76.
I spend most of my free time digitising and restoring classic video game magazines, mostly from the UK.
I've been doing this for over 20 years now and I'm here to share my passion for these magazines, as well as the games they cover with others.
I love to read and talk about gaming memories from years gone by.

My main hobbies are gaming, both modern and retro gaming, as well as Japanese, South Korean and classic Hong Kong cinema.

Heh, I seem to have made a bit of a mistake.

I used to love the series Dexter, up until the last season where it really jumped the shark for me.
I couldn't understand how badly they fumbled it all.

But when New Blood came out, I gave it a try and was surprised at how good it actually was.

Heard something about an origin story with different actors, but ignored it.

Last month I heard about the sequel series to New Blood called Resurrection.
So I was stoked to watch it.

Put on the first episode and it started exactly as you'd expect, then it jumped back in time to Dexters younger days.

I thought that I might have misremembered things about the new series, but nope, I accidentally put on the prequel series titled Original Sin. ๐Ÿ˜…

I actually kinda liked it.
So now I have two seasons to watch instead of just one!

And Star Trek starts in 3 days as well! ๐Ÿ˜„

And thatโ€™s page number 4 of Picross S Mega Drive and Master System Edition completed without any assists.

Has to go inside as it started to rain a little.
Time to edit some more Nintendo Magazine System pages then.

Little update on the kitty.
Sheโ€™s doing quite a bit better now.
She actually wants to be near me again when Iโ€™m in the garden playing some Picross and was really enjoying a good belly rub just now. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Speaking of films that are perfect to watch in summer.
A Snake of June is set during the Rainy Season in Japan and is so incredibly unique.

Disorienting and oft putting at times, but such an amazing piece of art that has stuck with me ever since I saw it first two years ago.

Already a massive fan of Shinya Tsukamoto, but this one exceeded all my expectations.

Review for Gargoyles Quest on Game Boy.
Taken from Total! 3 - March 1992 (UK)

This one kicked my butt so hard, just like Wizards & Warriors: Fortress of Fear.
But I loved both nonetheless.

Review for Balloon Kid on Game Boy.
Taken from Total! 3 - March 1992 (UK)

I played this game all the time back in the day.
Didn't expect it to go from a single screen arcade -like game to a scrolling platformer.
So much fun!

Now, it wouldn't be an issue of Total! without a questionable review here or there, now would it?
In this case they give Shadow Warriors on NES 27% less than Captain Planet in the same issue... ๐Ÿ˜ฌ
