    I'll bring Goldenaxe, Streets of Rage and Gunstar Heroes, just to compound the horror of mediocrity!


    Actually, I'll bring my massive sack! (of DS and 3DS games!)

    No Overblood - 3DO connection?
    You were only joshing?
    And there was I , taking it all so seriously! ;)

    I was way tired last night, made it home in one piece though!

    Thanks for a great night, and for the canine companionship!

    Thanks Sera for Lemmings 2 as well!

    I feel Dinorex will be cursed with regrets about that one. ;)

    Now you have it in for The Revenge of Shinobi too?!

    Must you continue to piss on my childhood?! :D

    Nice to see The Holy Trinity of classic Megadrive titles getting the appreciation they deserve!

    I must confess to getting really tired between 1am and 2am, like a wave it was......
    So, anything that may have been directed my way in that time may not be entirely remembered at this juncture..... apologies.

    Great dog by the way......

    And, no, Shinobi is fun alright, not sure about the company it keeps!
    But, hold on, since when was my opinion definitive?
    I mean, I'm usually right but I'm not completely infallible, I bought Rise of the Robots after all!

    Maybe if you wore the tee along with the monkey (fudge) mask he'd go easier on you!

    Ahh ****e I can't believe I missed this. I know that I haven't met any of you before and that I'm a relative newbie but count me in for the next time...

    Would love to have a retro gaming night with beers... I'll even bring my recently repaired Mega CD :-P

    You didn't spend more time playing that ****ty Zelda game did you?

    Surely if you want to play truly misunderstood classics, Superman 64 beckoned?

    Something made me think of it but can't remember what, think it was a mini game in Wario Ware. Most of the night we played Obscure 2 and Rhythm Heaven? on the Wii

    Ciderman remember I kept saying about the rap?

    We'd have played Deadly Premonition but he didn't have any xbox controllers.

    I was like that New Years Eve party at Lenny's. He didn't even have a clock.
