Merry Christmas to everyone on the forum! So did anyone get anything interesting in their stocking on Christmas morning? Or do anything interesting?
My son is massively into Robot Wars, both the older and the more recent series, and got a whole load of merchandise, which I love too! He also got the Megadrive collection for the PS4, after he visited the videogame arcade in Glasgow a couple of months ago and really enjoyed playing some of the older games.
I didn't get anything SMS related, but I did get F1 2021 and Aliens Fireteam Elite for the PS4.
Hope you're all still refusing to grow up like me! 🙂

Merry Christmas all!
Gaming-wise it's been a modern retro one for me - the Star Wars collections on Switch (Jedi Knight and Racer/Republic Commando) and Raiden IV. I can't fully commit to calling games from the 2000s retro, even though when I got a Dreamcast I was still buying new Master System games 7 years prior and that was retro at the time! I mean under that sort of timeline, the xbox one is retro.
Enjoy F1, I've been playing the 2020 game a lot this year but have needed to stop the past couple of months due to a tendon injury on the finger I need for braking. Creates some good drama sometimes, I'm leading the championship in my 2nd season because the two Mercedes keep crashing into each other at the start!
Post-xmas I'm looking at the Evercade Vs because there's some good stuff split across their cartridges, and I need to get a new Sega Saturn as mine stopped reading discs earlier this year.

I've been considering the Evercade since before the initial handheld was released, and it's been great to see the platform grow to some commercial success! And yet I've not actually bitten the bullet and got either handheld or console version yet, so be interested to hear your thoughts! I really like the catalogue of games they have put together.
