Two weeks later and that's every Micro Machines: Military record in the bag. I think I'll take a break from the MM games (at least until the new year) and have a think about what I want to run next, if anything.
After a bunch of grinding, I currently hold every speedrunning world record for Micro Machines 2 *and* Micro Machines 96 on the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis

On to Micro Machines: Military next!

Stuart Millard is still cracking open weird memories of TV I hadn't thought about in decades yet still linger in my brain, and is a must for confused old brits

Burger Becky’s gofundme for cancer treatment is now for a funeral service.

To my knowledge we’ve not yet lost her, but she has announced that her doctors have informed her there is nothing more that can be done

Vix has an awesome little series going on the history of Hudson Soft, now episodes strong. Check it out!
Over on the Rubbish Heap's parent channel, the 3rd instalment on Hudson Soft, which covers their history between 1992 and 1994 and looks at whether NEC and Hudson saw the PC Engine as a success or failure in the end. And lots of games shown! youtu.be/Iy8ZfEEcTtU #retrogaming #pcengine #hudsonsoft
The PC Engine ages gracefully. Multiplatform, again. Bye Bye Hudson Soft - Episode 3 (1992-1994)

I've played a lot of bad C64 racing games but thanks to Commodore Format we'll prove the machine can mix it with the best... or will we? Plus, The 73% Trials return.

My local MP is thankfully one of those actively advocating for trans rights; if one can do it, they all can.

This Government is currently sitting on an EHRC Code of Practice that will lead to the segregation and exclusion of trans people in public life.
