Always felt this video never got enough love - watch me get increasingly manic whilst trying to paint a Bob Ross in real time on Mario Paint!

Yeah I like them. The Marvel collection disc is excellent - I wish they would release more compilations.

I was world number 1 on the Spider-Man table for a long time! My score was absolutely battered though 😅

I used to have one called The Captain. Would always salute it whenever I went past

I'm more worried about that spider the size of a fridge above the window 😅

Didn't you know Sports Direct was founded in 1769 and the oversized novelty branded mugs were giant goblets.

Wholeheartedly agree! It takes a good photo too!

The rarer 'ragless' Silent Hill f washing machine in it's natural environment late on in the story.

Not having the greatest time with the game outside of the grizzly bits - not much going on.

These washers flashing some ankles though.. that's where it's at!

Have one in return for your troubles

I have one brief mention of Alf in passing with Ben and now my socials have all been Alf'd!

Can we add the 80s videogame crash told by the viewpoint of blinkered American eyes and not what actually happened?

Super Jim @superjim.bsky.social · 1d

For me it's just padding to fill out the run time.

I like to see channels that adjust a title sequence to include the subject matter of the video - at least then it is palatable

Super Jim @superjim.bsky.social · 2d

Yeah turning off all the map assistance is just making the game a chore

Super Jim @superjim.bsky.social · 2d

Weird little game. It's quite good but you can definitely taste the budget!

Have fun!

99% positive it was EA.. their game boxes also had part of the case missing inside to save on plastic use (honestly that was a good environmental thing) along with the manual now missing..

Super Jim @superjim.bsky.social · 2d

I think it was EA that started all this manual-less gaming circa Mass Effect 3 era.. under the guise of being environmentally friendly and definitely not to save a few pence per unit.

Lockers? Lockers.

A wild and interesting "third world country" in the eyes of videogame history at that.

Super Jim @superjim.bsky.social · 4d

Still seeing the same washing machine over and over on Silent Hill f.

The f is for 'fudding' as in the same fudding asset on loop.

When you can't decide which game mechanics to put in your game...why not all of them?!

That was some old school fun IMDB and Wiki-ing!

Good reminder to give my Turbo mini some love!

Super Jim @superjim.bsky.social · 7d

It's a big ask to charge so much money in my eyes, but a perfect chance to play some backlog stuff!

Super Jim @superjim.bsky.social · 7d

You can haaaaaaave some mini fighter puzzle action today!

Voting with my wallet time @xbox.com your Game Pass price hike isn't worth it.

Time to hit the shelves instead.
