I've been playing the ARRANGE mode on the original #ResidentEvil2, and I absolutely love it. Mowing enemies down with a gattling gun and imagination has me thinking of all the frustrated moments faced in this game in years past now resolved in seconds! Recommended!

If you're looking for good 🍕 in #Newcastle, then let me wholeheartedly recommend "Pizza by the Slice" in #GraingerMarket of whom I've been a customer - as well as the excellent #retrogaming shop next door - for close to 15 years now. Bravissimo!

WAY WAY back when (sometime in April 2020) I recorded my rambling thoughts for a solo podcast. I then ended up losing that recording and doing it again. The second recording became the pilot episode of #PlugInAndPlay
I may well do a solo episode again this weekend

I remember when, in one of the Dalton films, he makes reference to his late wife - and the friend (who gets married and then eaten by a shark) says "he was married once" or something like that...and I suddenly realised there was meant to be continuity between these Bonds....

One of my favourite Doctoroos is ‘The Visitation’ I always wanted Richard Mace to be a full time companion to the Fifth Doctor.

When I wake up on a day off, I find myself less mentally drained than if I'm due to head into work.
Due to not needing to leave the house by a certain time, get to work by a specific moment, I feel more 'drained' whilst on another person's clock.
Does that make sense? It's all physiological.

No way. My replaying had little to nothing to do with this anniversary. Of which I was unaware. But that's very cool, nonetheless.
November 11, 1999 (26 years ago today) was the release of ‘Resident Evil 3: Nemesis’ on the PlayStation in North America. The 3rd game in the series has you play as Jill Valentine as she attempts to escape Raccoon City during the events of RE2 while being pursued by a Terminator-like creature.

I was playing the original #ResidentEvil3 last night on #PS4. This is the emulated PS4/5 version. And it was giving me genuine scares. The music, the atmosphere, the restrictive camera, and controls in line with a game released in 1999. @capcomart.bsky.social take another bow - aged like a fine 🍷

It's ironic that when you book some time off work to relax before the #Christmas madness kicks in, you get some really terrible weather. But such is life.

Rewatched #TheHeretic again today with #HughGrant
It's a fantastic performance from Grant, and I love the concept of the film and find a lot of it very clever. But that said, the ending didn't do it for me, and I felt it was a little bit of a letdown.
Still, I would recommend you watch it.

I was so enthralled with replaying the original #ResidentEvil2 that I decided to purchase the original #ResidentEvil3 for my #PS4 #PS5 collection and add it to my digital collection, just to continue the fun! I certainly hope they've got that handy rewind feature...

The #ITCrowd episode #TheSpeech being removed from streaming services...I'm just so disappointed because I love the whole subplot of Jen not understanding the basic concept of the Internet...

I've just finished a playthrough of the original #ResidentEvil2, and I'm eager to discuss it on a future episode of #PlugInAndPlay
It must be the first time, in a very long time, I've finished the original game. Also... there are some real storyline issues and continuity errors.

Why, in the original #ResidentEvil2, is Leon so infatuated with #Ada? I mean, he's only just MET the woman, right? And then he throws away the G Virus 🙄
And this is another thing, why has he been sent his uniform and what have you remotely? Turns up loyal to RPD, having never worked a day?

Things are tough at the moment. I want things to be better, though I'm not entirely sure which direction I want them to go in. I'm unsure as to what the best thing to do is. I can make choices and accept the consequences, I just don't know what will be better #mentalhealth

Oh past Wayne, how little you knew of what was to come...
I can’t believe #Terminator2DNoFate has been delayed - again - this time, apparently, due to tariffs…Ive never wanted to play a game more in such a long time and it’s just not happening…
I think we did an episode of #PlugInAndPlay months ago about this…
