Control Issues

Here's the new video. Finally did one!

Went to a Retro Expo in Plano Tx recently and made a vid of what I saw.

A bit of a different one here. Browsing Goodwill's auction site. Going to definitely be doing more of these streams and videos as it was pretty fun. Going to edit more stuff out of the next one, though... too many slow parts rewatching the video...

Been a while since I posted anything in here... we've moved, so the game "room" setup is different. Need to put out a new video. Anywho, here's some pics from some recent pickups... A "rare" Activision game, Cosmic Commuter. My first boxed 2600 game, Kaboom! (I already had a loose copy of Kaboom, but now I have one in the box, too.) And a couple of more common titles that I didn't have. Back in the day, I had a real, honest to goodness photo-taken-of-the-TV-and-sent-to-Activision patch for River Raid. I'm nowhere near as good at it now.

Hey there from a fellow Texan! (I also had a Pong unit... well... clone I think... back in the day, but it's loong gone.) Hope you were okay during the big freeze!

Mine's not too exciting... a laptop. I have built my own desktops in the past, but for a while now I've been a laptop guy. It's a Dell G5 5590 Intel Core i7-9750H CPU @ 2.60GHz 2.59 GHz 16.0 GB Ram 256GB SSD and 1TB HDD (also have a 1TB external HDD I took out of an old laptop) It's done better than I thought it would. Runs Cyberpunk with only the problems the game comes with. lol Pics are of the laptop and my background image (photo by me) and the desk environment. (I cleaned it a little to take this pic, but it's always a mess of wires.)

It's kinda become a soda review channel. lol... I need to make more gaming related content.

I used to watch Automan and still remember his car and how it would take 90 degree turns at speed and throw the detective guy against the window. I kinda "made" the car in one of the Forza games...

Here's the video I was thinking of... and this was January 2020, so before Covid...

I've been seeing more and more about this recently, but it's been going on for a while. I remember getting just about everything for my first home built computer there around the year 2000. But I also remember seeing a video where a guy was going to see if he could buy everything he needed to build a computer there recently and he couldn't. It's like he had a choice of cases, but none of the motherboards they had in stock would fit or he could find a few pieces that would go together, but then couldn't find the right power supply. Pretty sad. There's one not too far from me, but I haven't been in over a decade probably.

I just played Arcana for the SNES for the first time yesterday. Not sure how great it is just yet, but I played for around 30 min and really liked it. It's a first person dungeon crawler type game, like AD&D Eye of the Beholder but a little less complicated. But the real draw for me is that it has an automap feature for the dungeons! No graph paper needed!

And some more soda reviews...

Episode 3 of the TG Until I Die deaths...

One good thing about streaming is, when I do something cool, I have a record. lol... Got a hole in one on Mean 18 for the 7800. (Think I called it "Mean Green" in the video... I was excited.) Also "Wooch" is another streamer who does a lot of golf streams.
