It’s the computer game side of GarageHirst off the Internet (Cyberspace). One day will be a YouTube channel (actually the channel exists, just no videos on it).
Pinned
Introductory Post: I’m Hirst, the guy in the shirt there. I like weird old games (especially imports) and arcades, based in the UK and (slowly) doing videos about games and that. Promise. If you want to hear dumb opinions, please follow, reposts appreciated as it’s quiet on here! Nice people only.
Thrill Drive is coming! (it probably isn’t)

I see my policy of only buying things that actually exist continues to be one of my better life decisions.

Using any kind of Generative AI on YouTube is an instant “no” from me. AI voices, hit backspace. AI music, I’m out. AI thumbnail, won’t click. AI logo, scroll past.
I very seriously want people to be rude, mean and strict about AI.

See a YouTuber using AI? Tell them you hate it and unsubscribe.
See an artist using AI? Tell them to fuck off and block.
See a friend posting AI memes/vids? Call them out.

Ruffle feathers. Debate it. Hate it. Bury it.

Found the old website. Imagine working for a company that primarily deals in game and cat-based entertainment, must be some job satisfaction in that somewhere.

I like it when I explore weird old game company websites, because then you find out that Magical Company were simultaneously trying to develop a PS2 golf game and operate some kind of cat theme park.

My advice to anyone trying to get to the bottom of every PS2 game released by Midas Interactive (including re-releases of earlier Swing Entertainment titles) is to not do that because it’s a living nightmare.

Midas things are happening!

So basically the scary banned game is just a bit of a surreal art house thing with weird content like thousands of European films. It’s just America doing their usual repressed panic attack they do every so often, like when they saw Janet Jackson’s nipple that time.
Despite the controversy, Horses is only shocking if you're unfamiliar with the history movies, theater, literature, or basically any art form that does not have stats. aftermath.site/horses-indie-g...
Horses Is Tame
Horses, the indie game that is too scandalous for either Valve or Epic, is only beyond the pale if you're not familiar with any other art form.

Finally, that weird game featuring the rise and fall of Alex Kidd.

Scariest thing is when you see the enormous lists on PSXdatacenter and think “hold on, I’ve got one that isn’t on the list”. How many others are lurking out there?

Slightly belated 25th Anniversary to Shenmue on the DC which I bought on Boxing Day from Gamestation in Leeds White Rose but they didn’t have any VMUs so I could only play Disc 1 for a few days. Still got my original copy. For the record, my favourite character is the jerk in the Slot House.

This got weirdly popular (by my standards) and makes me wonder if I should do some video about console link cable multiplayer stuff. It’s mostly driving games, which makes sense.
I’m just thinking out loud here and I don’t think I’ve ever played a game console with a link cable and two TVs setup. I guess I’ll do that in 2026, gives me something to aim for.

Always here for the brothers.
One of my fave bits of fan art. Extremely 'what if Hiroshi Nagai was a fan of the Bonanza Bros'. From 1991

I'll do another one - in GTA3, the standard engine texture and some car wheel textures (e.g. Sentinel) are from a Honda HR-V. Some of the other cars use wheel textures from a Fiat Punto (e.g. police car, taxi).
i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago

so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

Probably the only other good truly useless piece of game knowledge I know is that the early releases of Tokyo Road Race published by Midas Interactive for the PS2 in PAL regions have a typo on the spine so it reads "Toyko".

As it came up recently, the "Mike's Carpet Bomb" in Worms 2 is an local in-joke based around Mike's Carpets, a small chain of carpet showrooms around West Yorkshire run by Mike Smith (now deceased). A few years ago I encountered him in a car park and was going to ask him about it, but then I didn't.

Found a memoy card with dreadful blurry photos dated 2007 (!) of some of my collection of driving/racing games that I presume I posted on a forum or something, can't remember. C1 Circuit is an absolute honker, worth playing just for how the cars bounce off scenery.

It’s easy to overlook the Wii, but it’s probably the top console for “here’s a bit of a weird-sounding game for the price of a sandwich” impulse purchases.

Apparently I’m currently working in a building where people are informed of the importance of Worms.

Solitiba (Pocket Card Jockey) CD arrived today, but my car is with the mechanic so I can’t drive around blasting it at confused pedestrians. It’s one thing after another lately!
November 19, 2025 at 11:27 PM
Update, the CD is in the post! This is going straight in the car CD changer so I can drive to my miserable job with joyful horse solitaire music.

My favourite Celebrity Jungle moment was in 2018 when Ant McPartlin recklessly crashed his car into two other vehicles whilst over double the drink-drive limit and the media desperately scrambled to frame it as a sad mental health issue rather than the actions of a completely selfish cunt.
