On 23rd April 1982 Sinclair released the ZX Spectrum and proceded to dominate the home computer market here in the UK. Simon had a 'Speccy' as a child, and has fond memories of them. To mark the oc...

Sega had 'Sonic', Nintendo had 'Mario', so in the late '90s Sony needed a loveable platform character of their own. And so 'Crash Bandicoot' came to be! I played these games quite a lot at the time...

The last of the original Wii Sports games - golf. It was actually quite good fun, if a little slow paced. We got well into our swing though.
