Justin Posted December 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 The level of generosity being shown here is astonishing. We have an amazing community and none of this should surprise me. Secret Santa has always been about paying it forward and making a Christmas wish come true for somebody else. That's being done here in spades. I've gotten to know a lot of you guys personally. Many of us have had things happen in life that get in the way of enjoying our love of classic gaming to its fullest. Even the most hard working and gainfully employed among us may be in a situation this year where they've put their family before themselves. They make sure their spouse and children get to see their Christmas wishes come true. For some in our community that means their Secret Santa presents may be the only presents they get to open this Christmas. These sorts of things aren't often posted publicly. The amount of generosity being shown here can really affect somebody in ways you could never imagine.

Atari Creep Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 We have an amazing group of folks here Justin. Great leadership too. Everyone just keep doing what you're doing. It has been my experience that in our hobby most community's come with trolls and negativity. However here at the IO the love is strong! Giving a small gift only scratches the surface of how kind and giving this community is. At least for me personally, I have felt its amazing effects. I'm glad to be here and better for it in many ways. Cheers yo! Rowsdower70, GervGirl, Justin and 2 others 5 Quote Don't just watch TV, PLAY IT!

Justin Posted December 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 This is just so great to sit back and watch these unboxing videos. It's a cold night, I've got my warm drink, kicked back watching this play out full screen and making a meal out of it.

It is a very awesome book. My daughter is an artist and we were looking at it together this morning. I love the industrial design section. Thanks again and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
