The Sega Channel was a big fuck off cartridge which was permanently hooked to your cable box and you could download fifty different games per month. Was boss for discovering 'off radar' games which you'd never play otherwise (Aerobiz Supersonic was bummed on a regular basis) and made all the other cartridges we owned redundant. Given this was the mid 90s it was pretty much ahead of its time.

Without wishing to come across overly cuntish, how can you complete a degree in journalism and be so shorn of contacts as to seek this advice on a football forum? I'm a thick cunt who never went to uni but even I know that UK publishing apes the US to the extent that unless you self-publish - or are scouted - then your masterpiece will be gestating for some time yet.
You're welcome.

games world was the one on Sky1, Big boy Barry, anyone remember that?
Was it on early before school and presented by Dominik Diamond? Can vaguely remember a show on Sky One which was scandalously similar to Gamesmaster and presented by DD but it might not be the one you're referring to.

Aye, Mega Drive controllers were the tits. My cousin had a Master System (the one with Alex Kidd in Miracle World built in) and it had this mystique because we never owned one but in hindsight that console was a piece of shit compared to the NES.
Sega and Nintendo ruled hard but Disney made some belting games in the early-mid 90s too: Castle of Illusion, Aladdin, Quackshot, The Lion King and my favourite Mickey Mania.

Mario or Sonic?
When I got a PSP years ago and had them all at my fingertips to revisit, gotta say Mario hadn't aged very well at all but when I fired up Sonic 2 I did a great big nostalgia in my pants.

That's boss. I'm 26 and was lucky growing up because my da was bang into his computer games so I inherited an Amiga and we always had a shit hot gaming PC but the Mega Drive was my true love, I even had the Sega Channel (to this day I've never met a single person who had that). Speaking of the Sonics, I never realised - until his death - that Michael Jackson composed the music for Sonic 3. I remember I used to play through to Ice Cap Zone and just leave it playing in the background on a loop because I loved that track (way back in 2000 when I first downloaded Radiohead's Idioteque from Napster my initial reaction wasn't "wow, what an amazing track" but "hey, that's Sonic 3!").
Props to the paedo, this is an incredible piece of music:

I stopped 'hardcore gaming' myself from about 17 until only a couple of years ago and have to admit the current gen has been a bag of shite.

Your expertise in being fucking clueless is without equal, as is your criticism of our manager. You must be sitting waist deep in your own bile .
Just back, in haste.
I love aways. My first game was away on the Popside, and that thrill has never really gone, when it does I will stop going. It is easy to assume fan message boards,and the sharp, witty, acerbic, good humoured and knowledgeable body of those who follow us, are the same. They are not. No armchair sniping, or ill informed piss-takes, just the verite of what unfolds before your eyes.
Boundary Park is a proper football ground, and one I had not been to for many years, a welcome change from the PL sanitised offerings. A lunchtime in the pub before wandering down to the ground rolled back the years, the brooding Pennine backdrop could easily be the tombs for Andy Ritchie,Joe Royle and other past Latic royalty watching the new breed.
Firstly, respect to Brendan for putting out an attacking side. It was great to see Borini, Sturridge, Suarez, Sterling , Allen ( who was very good and took his goal well) and Henderson on the pitch together, and when we went forwards we looked good. Defensively, the story was not so encouraging, a much changed back line looked awkward and uncertain, with Skrts unable to marshall the troops whilst putting in a pretty poor personal performance. Seeing him bullied by a league one forward was embarrassing.Coates enjoyed a deserved start, but a torrid time, with little around him to coax, reassure and guide. Downing had a good go. Stevie g could easily have snatched a replay in the last minute. Ironically the player who we missed today was Andy Carroll, an option not available to Brendan by his own hand.
Our ball retention was poor, and on this showing Brendan might want to put in a bid for Swansea ball boy Charlie Morgan, at least he can hold onto the ball for 40 seconds.
The FA Cup is not high on the clubs priority list, but nonetheless an exit is a blow to all fans. Rodgers will learn from this, it is part of his learning process, LFC under FSG is all about the league, and this exit will help us with that focus.
cool story bro

Congratulations Mike D, you appear to have had my childhood.
Videogame music was way better back then, someone's already posted Lotus Turbo Challenge II but anyone else hear these and get all nostalgic:

The Lethal Weapon Amiga soundtrack is my second favourite game soundtrack OF ALL TIME (after Spyro).

If this is true then the kid's got some stones: that there is Titus Bramble's patch and you'd have to fancy T-Bram's mong strength in a territorial throwdown.
Seriously though, are women in the northeast just easier to rape? Legacy of being smashed by the vikings and secretly enjoying it I reckon...

I've never liked the term suck treat
Me neither, it really grates for some reason (soz Remmie). Getting a chew isn't a treat: it's a goddamn birthright.

I'd imagine I'm Series' top repper. I think he's one of the best posters on the forum. I don't always agree with him, but he is respectful, thoughtful, and intelligent.Series' = Xerxes
Collateral neg coming your way.

Who are your top reppers?

Can't stand this game. I loved FM up to 11 but it went shit after that.
Agreed. The handheld version's been well better for years (and free).

Aagh, beat me to it
The legend that is Tommy Wiseau will be appearing at FACT in February for a showing of the film
I'm gutted I can't make it
Haha I'm actually going to that. Trying to get an interview with the man himself as well - it's for radio but I'll throw it up on Youtube all being well. This man made the Citizen Kane of bad cinema ffs!

Has to be seen to be believed.
But if you can't be arsed then the Nostalgia Critic watched it so you don't have to! Seriously, this review is well worth 28 minutes of your time...

Only just seen this:
Sky Sports apologise after ex-referee Dermot Gallagher makes 'Holocaust' reference - News & Comment - Football - The Independent
Worse than Cascarino's remarks imo. Apparently when asked about it last week he denied it ever happened...
