Well, I was sick for most of the time, pretty bad bug (no, not man-flu), and I've also been attending to the "re-doing" of my home theatre, which will be a new feature in T.B.I.Y soon.
But most of my time has been spent playing the onslaught of games that I own. From SNES, Mega Drive, Gameboy, PS1, N64, Dreamcast, PC, Xbox, Gamecube, PS2, all the way to PS3 and Xbox 360 games - it's been a blast!
Some treats that I grew up with that I truly loved, like Metal Gear Solid on the PSone, have not aged all too well aesthetic wise, but still play like the legends they are. The moment a guard becomes alerted to your presence in MGS is still gripping, and the first chance you get to use the ridiculous disguise of a cardboard box is still, after all this time, utterly wonderful.
Then there's the ever awesome Donkey Kong Country on the SNES, which is still a great looking and damn fun (if insanely difficult) platformer, even today.
But that's not all, since the downfall of OnLive, I figured I'd give it another go before it changed in the buyout. And you know what? I wish I'd given the service a better chance when I first started using it a while a go. The ability to play full console games on my Sony Tablet S is pretty cool, and paired with my 360 controller, it makes playing them incredibly easy.
