Obviously, still a lot to do here. I love the new courses and Knockout mode is brilliant. Haven't done too much in Free Roam yet. Rainbow Road was AWESOME!

The first game I played was Jumping Jack on a friend's Spectrum. Then at school we had things like Chuckie Egg, PacMan (or maybe it was a clone), Centipede, Granny's Garden, Hunch Back, Moon Buggy etc
It was around then that I really began to want a computer at home. We got a Spectrum 48K.

Secret of Mana on the SNES.
First game I imported from the US, having bought a US>UK adapter just to play it after seeing reviews of it in UK gaming mags.
First game I replayed more than once too.

What game made you fall in love with video games?
Dizzy, an early Metroidvania. Not the very first game I played, but one of them, and certainly the first I remember really getting into. Thinking about it when not playing, talking to friends about it, getting hyped for the sequel. Awesome stuff.

Had a good time with the Outlanders #NintendoSwitch demo today. Didn't realise it was an old game, but it has a nice Settlers feel to it.
However, the choice to have rotation as left/right and zoom as up/down on the same joystick is *baffling* - nearly ruins the whole thing.

Any site that doesn't have video pop-overs, cookies-or-pay bollocks, or more ads than text gets my vote. Shout out to the people trying to deenshittify the internet.
