Not my thing at the time, as I preferred house music, and the tail end of hardcore/rave
But 30 years ago today, on 2nd Oct 1995 (What's The Story) Morning Glory was released
It launched to both a record-breaking first day and first week sales, spending the next 10 weeks at No1 in the album charts

Insomniac's Wolverine combat reveal was great, the combat certainly looks good
But a bit worried about the world and gameplay just following their Spider-Man blueprint though, not that that isn't great, but it has been done
Hopefully the world & its between-combat gameplay is wholly unique to this

Devil Crash is one of my favourite ever games
Devil Crash MD, to give it its full title, was a Mega Drive/Genesis port of the Devil's Crush, a PC Engine title
A censored version was later released in the west, called Dragon's Fury, which removed the word 'Devil', a pentagram, coffins & crucifixes

Netflix and YouTube can get in the bin
Sick of them pushing videos at me that I've already seen. They've removing the progress bar which shows I've already seen part or all of it
They're obviously designing a service to the benefit of their shareholders, not paying subscribers

Disappointing that Creature Commandos is unavailable in the UK
Peacemaker also had this problem, how have you done this again? ALL other Warner/HBO/Max content airs in UK on Sky Cinema/Sky Atlantic
People will just pirate it, rather than wait months

The 'video game' & 'computer' graphics in Terrahawks, including closing credits' naughts & crosses game are actually faked 'CG'
CAD workstation animated the graphics, each frame printed out on a 'plotter', turned into negatives & then photographed frame by frame, with coloured acetate to add colour
