Over 2 years ago 2 Old 4 Gaming asked me to do the design work on what would be the first issue of RPM - the unofficial Retro PlayStation Magazine. And two years later we now have 7 issues published.

What a journey.

Listening to the greatest Trance mix compilation on the way to work. Gone back to 1999.

God tier.

Gatecrasher Wet

Wish I would have been 18 back then to club at Gatecrasher, but thankfully in 2017 they re-opened and I got to see some legends in the game live!

Payday today at work, and as a rare treat at the moment, I have bought a new anime Blu ray release to add to my collection that I am slowly rebuilding!

The incredible Solo Leveling! Based on the insanely popular Korean Manhwa which is now also getting a live action Netflix show.

I think I have been living under a rock recently, but I noticed this new kids film (Latvian but feels like an Anime) in HMV and felt an urge to buy it as a Cat lover.

What a beautiful, poignant tale Flow is. It moved me in a way that I haven’t felt in a long, long time.

Next bottle feed for my girl is at 1am, so am gonna try stay awake and watch a childhood classic I bought again this week from HMV.

Con Air!

All-time classic for me! But one I want in a small collection I want to build after having to sell most of my possessions last year.

So I haven’t bought anything for myself for a while, but I did go on eBay and get the new Stellar Blade Vinyl Mini 2 OST - got it for a good price considering only 500 have been pressed (was part of a raffle from PlayStation Korea).

The tracklist bangs! Especially ‘Raven’.

Tonight’s movie after a long day of work and baby care.

Crack House on Blu ray from Vinegar Syndrome.

What have I let myself in for?

So we won a competition at a recent Lincoln baby fayre for a free newborn photoshoot with Elli Cassidy Portraits, and what an amazing experience it was! We are so happy with the portraits of our little Alana and would recommend Elli to anyone! She really looked after us.

Welcoming to the world my daughter…

Alana Violet Maddison

Born at 10:10am and weighing 9 pounds 2

Very quiet baby! And Mummy and Alana are doing well!

My last Anime purchase for a little while, but here is AnimEigo’s new Blu ray restoration of Bubblegum Crash! I’m certain MVM will release it in the UK at some point, but couldn’t wait so imported from Media OCD in the US!

I love Bubblegum Crisis!

Got this cool Ocean Blue DualShock 2 ready for when my blue SuperStation One (FPGA PS1) from Retro Remake / @TakiUdon_ comes later this year!

Not spending too much this year though what with the baby coming!

My first (and only!) child I am having is due in a couple of weeks and I am already starting to build a little collection of Japanese Anime and Manga, which I hope to introduce to her at some point!
January 29, 2025 at 5:06 PM
Well that is the SuperStation One (PS1 FPGA clone console) pre-ordered. One last treat to myself before my baby girl lands next month!

Went for the transparent blue - to be different of course.

Looking forward to getting all my PS1 library onto this!
January 26, 2025 at 2:09 AM
Well I never thought this would happen, but I just won this pristine US sealed copy of FFVIII PS1 on eBay for £16! The seller is a vintage collectible dealer and also just sold copies of Einhander & Crash Team Racing for £600 each!

This has my favourite cover art. Perfection!

Hey Simon. I hope you are well.

@thesegaholic.bsky.social mentioned that it might be worth getting in touch to see if you are able to look at my PS3. I have slightly nuked it after attempting my first Delid. No rush, but would be great if you have time to help or can refer me on :)

This Cat does not want me to carry on building my Japanese CaDA brick Coffee Shop!

So what is everyone’s game of the year 2024 at this moment in time?

For me it is a toss up between Stellar Blade and Silent Hill 2 Remake. The latter though I cannot stop thinking about since finishing it this week (work of art!). I have since started the original game on PS2!

So as Argos have put all PS5 DualSense controllers down to £44.99 for Black Friday, I thought I would treat myself to the new Chroma Indigo one (fresh battery!) and sell my old Cosmic Red to CeX for £34!

Love the colouring on this one!

“Did you just see a real bright light?”

The picture quality on this new 4K transfer of The Terminator is incredible!
