Thanks for your info btw. Cooled my project for now as looking into running it off a special machine. I am very taken by the idea of getting a mini pc, running Retro-Bat an getting an X-Arcade stick with the trackball to try and get my own Golden Tee setup going. I looked into getting the Arcade 1UP cab but just don't have room for that.

But will be back in touch in the New Year once I get going.

Play

Kotor 2 - Finally made it to the stage where this feels like it's getting good. Remembered the opening section on the mining station, but had completely forgotten you got locked into the next planet for so long. I've finally left that when you first can to do to the planet surface and it's already much better.

Old Football and football management games - I mentioned before on here I started playing these and putting them on my YouTube channel. This was actually a form of therapy and still is, but yesterday I hit 500 subscribers. So am now in the process of joining the official "YouTube Partner" programme. If I ever make it to 1000 subscribers I can then start compromising my morals all for tiny amounts of ad revenue.

Aliens: Colonial Marines & other random Xbox 360 titles - On Saturdays my guys watch Strictly Come Dancing in the living room. I used to do my YouTube videos in the cellar then but it's too noisy to record when my kid is dancing and screaming right above my head. So recently I set one of the later models of Xbox 360 they did up in our bedroom on a TV at the back of the room, and now try to play a different 360 game every weekend. Trying to recreate the "weekend rental" vibe almost. I had never played Colonial Marines somehow but am a bit fan of it despite how basic and simple it is.

Want

The Blue Xbox 360 model they sold very late into it's life. It's apparently a bit quieter and just looks very nice.

Bin

Weather. Once again back to leaking roof check. It's at least the different end of the house this time but it's unlikely to get looked at til February.

What happened to Miskie? I remember I only found the site due to seeing the URL in GamesTM in ArrghhZombies column (think it was his?)

Apologies if it's listed above but what program or front end are you using Mart? Been looking at getting a mini PC in the sale to use for a emulation device for work events and for at home when upstairs.

Had another go at Lamp Lighters League last night and it finally clicked with me this time after about 3 or 4 missions. Once I finally accepted it's not Xcom and I should be constantly trying to overwatch and incremental inch, but that I should be trying to set up lots of chances for the OP super agent team I finally started to enjoy it.
