  • New edition to my gaming collection, one from my ‘Most Wanted’ list -Tempest 2000

    New edition to my gaming collection, one from my ‘Most Wanted’ list -Tempest 2000

    I have been after this game for 18 months, ever since played it at R3play2010 whilst the game designer Jeff Minter watched. I really enjoy Llamasoft’s output, I even bought the console just so that I could play this game.

    I just had an hour session on it, awesome shump and mega music. Everything I was hoping for, also some great power ups. The game is fast, but not to fast. I feel a real sense of achievement when I beat my last score or get to a new level. This is a MUST HAVE GAME, and I am so happy I now have it.

    I could do with seeing if the console can be modded to support RGB output?, Off to shoot some enemy webs

    R3play 2010, retro gaming event

    Craig and Chris, at the r3play 2010 retro gaming event. We had an awesome time, we both had the biggest grins on our face all day long. Great time on the arcade machines, Chris was blown away with the Cave shumps, I had a blast on the Amiga (set highscore on Project X). Chris went old school with a gaming session on the BBC Electron, playing a newly released game. I played Craig Tempest 2000 for the Jaguar at R3play 2010. Whilst the creator watched us Jeff Minter. using a modded controller they did for the game.
