The 'Old' Kid
Hi All,

Only signed up the other day (Mainly 'cause I've got a prob :msn_shy:). But I thought I'd better do the decent thing and introduce myself first before I ask for help.....:)

A quick intro about me: 39, originally from UK, now in New Zealand (been here less than a year). Into retro via whatever I can emulate with my aging (4 year old) laptop -It's suprising how well it does . Other interests than gaming: Mountain Biking, Beer (MTBing THEN Beer if possible ), Films, Music - the usual

Gaming Platform History: 1983/4 - C64 (UK - so no disk drive - Tape all the way! LOL) - it lasted and lasted - until it got hot enough to fry an egg on . Then no computer til the mid-90's, a secondhand Amiga A500 (with a WHOLE 1MB of RAM ) - that lasted til first console - a PSX in '97 (first game Resident Evil), followed by PS2 in '01 (PS2 is still in storage- so it's PC emulation via MAME, Nebula, Visual Pinball, etc all the way for now.

Games I'm playing most at the moment:
Marble Madness, Gun.Smoke, Super Hang-On, APB (MAME)
Sega Rally, House of the Dead, Daytona USA (Nebula - Well TRYING to :confused:)
Kings of Steel, The Getaway, Medieval Madness (Visual Pinball)

Hi to everyone :D
