Nothing, not one thing post RE4 has been any good. Every remake is a revolting sin. /grumpyoldmanopinions

Few bits from the current space. Nothing going on the house or the workshop yet, just a couple of pics from where I operate now:

I have another very very small confession. My friend Scott came and I felt itchy so I bit him. :(

Only games I played were OG RE1, OG RE2, OG RE3, 4, 5, and some of 6. As I was born in '82 I grew up on it "in real time," if you like. "The magic" (whatever that may have been) which admittedly felt a tiny tiny bit strained in OG RE3, was CERTAINLY back in RE4 but some silliness had come in...

...wish they'd post it up already.

Just sat down to watch it now. REALLY not bad! What was the opening music? Was that yours too?

So I'm wondering things about the original, first RE game/s in particular. Like, how did Umbrella Corp fly in all that heavy plant gear? How did they dig out that underground lab with nobody noticing? Are there bits of that lab we never see? Must be. There had to have been huge works up to it...

Well that's awesome. Can't pretend I'm not super happy. :) I've consistently enjoyed that they've had little/no idea they're internationally known and all of a sudden what must have been "just another job" several decades ago was in fact hugely significant. First ever play of an RE game was...

Okay, so it looks like a house is coming up! I'll need to have the existing workshop extended and rebuilt. Looking like finished interior dimensions will be 6x6m (around 19.5ft) so not enormous, but big enough to get into plenty of projects/trouble. :) Started pondering it. Moody though the...

Lol, well I could ramble on for ages about it. I don't know if I'm the oldest one here at getting on for 40 but I must be close. So I'll ramble a little, work is slow... It was the climate of the times that REALLY made it. Honestly back then if you liked computer games you kept your head down -...

Have my eye on a place with, if I'm honest, an OBSCENELY large workshop/garage setup. Without getting too far ahead of myself (this is honestly going to be the better part of two years) I do also want to get a little bit excited about it. So, thoughts on what it'd potentially be like, if...

Thank you everybody. :)

Hello everyone - this will be a bit of a unique one I think! It'll be a long slow-burn of a project for a while but now I'm looking to buy a house and workshop of my own soon enough. At almost 40 I have at last got the chance. One of my passions is cars and I maintain/modify my own vehicles. I...

Hello all - I think it was 1998 when I was only 15 I got to play the original RE. Then RE2 within a week. Needless to say I was hooked completely. We'd never seen anything like that before then. I remember them both being very much "of their time" - in the era of X-Files and the new internet...
