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.

"This game is also inspired by so many of our favorite Wandering Samurai films".

The landscape in Ghost of Yōtei looks absolutely stunning. The storytelling and card collecting seems interesting, I don't even care about the actual combat at this point, I'll probably just wander around in medieval Japan, plucking flowers and watching the birds 😄

Bought pack 7 myself as I didn’t have this one on Switch yet.
After an hour of play I’m already on top of my friend’s leaderboard in Bride of Pinbot. 😄

This was the game that I was looking forward to playing during my summer vacation, but somehow it didn't show up in the meagre sales of the past couple of weeks.

Well, the Nintendo summer sale just went live and Natsu-Mon: 20th Century Summer Kid Sunset Bundle is now half-off at just €25. 😊

This is the spiritual sequel to Boku no Natsuyasumi (or Boku's Summer Vacation):

I was in the mood for some arcade games last night, so after playing some pinball and ESP Galuda II, I went looking for games I hadn't yet played and came across Viper Phase 1.

It's a spinoff from the Raiden series by Seibu Kaihatsu and wow, I can't believe I never played this one before.
The sprite work is just amazing, which shouldn't really be a surprise from this developer, but still.

Spent the rest of the evening playing it and I can't wait to play some more tonight.

If you're looking for a really great, old school shoot em up, I can't recommend this one enough.
