My first computer was a Commodore Vic-20. I loved it. But I have no idea where it went… and even though I have a Vic-20 emulator on my PC, I’m going to buy myself a real one. Yes, a real Vic-20 that I can plug into my TV and play Gorf on.
Call Of Duty 4 is one of my favorite games released in the last 10 years, and although Call Of Duty World At War doesn’t appeal to me as much as Modern Warfare, I’m really looking forward to seeing what else can be done with the excellent COD4 engine. It’s available for pre-order now from Play-Asia. I’ve ordered mine!
I’ve had my old GP2X F-100 for a few years now, and it’s been totally awesome for playing SNES and NeoGeo games. But the new GP2X Wiz is so much sexier, and also plays Flash games, AND also has a much more powerful processor. I’ve thought about trying to resist the urge to get a G2PX Wiz, but they’re only about $180, which makes it impossible to resist.
The SNES is easily my favorite console system of all time, and regardless of what Sony and MS (and even Nintendo) come up with these days, nothing beats the huge range of SNES titles when it comes down to pure gameplay. There are plenty of SNES games that I still play regularly using PC emulators and on my GP2X handheld, but the one that I keep coming back to is the Konami classic Pop’n Twinbee. The graphics are gorgeous, and it has just enough cutesy Japanese factor going on. Vertical shooters simply don’t get any better than this. It’s my favorite SNES game of all time.
