Opening a mail package with a beautiful retro game. And then finding out it smells like 35 years of tobacco fumes... 💕 and 🤮
Streaming some random tunes with the MGSP2.1 player while working. Will try and skip tunes that give me a headache 😋
@FiXato Nah. Boerenjongens misschien.
@FiXato Nou heb ik ineens zo'n zin in appeltaart. Ik ga er met de kerst ééntje maken! En stoofpeertjes!
@peron I've not looked back at the game for 20 years, but just now browsing around, I noticed it's open sourced and still under development from volunteers. Very impressive!
Also came across this great looking Freespace 2 box! Even though I can hardly remember it, I used to be into space dogfighting sims back in the late 90's and early 00's.
Sunday afternoon rummaging through my #MSX stuff. Look at this big Antarctic Adventure patch! Any idea where this came from originally?
@FiXato Temperatures starting to plummet here too. We might even have rain next week! 😱
Yay! Found a bug in #MSX Beamrider! Must've played this game a million times as a kid but never noticed it before.
Apparently there's a way for an enemy to get stuck off screen as it stops spawning new ones before the enemy counter reaches 0.
@FiXato Personally I rank Voyager above TNG as well! Damn, this is quickly turning into a nerdfest. Let's talk about MSX instead!
@FiXato Yeah, sure, I've got good memories of TNG too. But I find it painful to re-watch. It aged very, very, badly -- imho!
Shalom, Shalom! And welcome to my collection. -- No matter how much you're "Knightmare III", you're just not the easiest to love #MSX game. Those walls and walls of Japanese text might have something to do.
@FiXato God no, it ranks much higher than TNG!
@FiXato DS9 is entertaining enough. I watched the whole thing not long ago.
@FiXato I enjoyed DH for a couple of seasons too, but at one point I just got terribly bored of it and never looked back.
@FiXato I remember B5 starting slowly, but then getting much better over time. Fond memories, although it may not have aged well. It's been a long time since I last watched it.
Streaming some sweet, sweet #MSX tunes here on the sweet, sweet MGSP2 player from HRA!
Not very chatty cause I'm trying to get some work done, but everyone's welcome to listen along.
@johnhattan Ohh, Radar Love! Those guys are from my neck of the woods. Great song, great band.
REALLY enjoyed playing/cheating my way through Ghost for the #MSX
nitpicking:
* No item descriptions in-game
* Fair amount of places where you just have to know the map layout - and start over from scratch while you don't
Controls, graphics, sound, are all great ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
