16k Spectrum > 48k Spectrum > Spectrum+ > Spectrum +3 > wilderness years > PS2 > X360 > PS3 > PS4. Lords of Midnight; Rebelstar Raiders; Football Manager. That's the most interesting bits of my life story. The thing I love most about these lists is you can really pinpoint how old people are. For instance, I assume you became an adult, had a midlife crisis and picked up a PS2, putting you in your mid to late 50's. Am I in the right ball park? Bullseye, except the bit about becoming an adult. |

Destry is currently shirtless and taking on all comers in the street to win back that national pride. |

Nice. I just remembered I missed Barcode Battler II off my list. i also seem to remember reading somewhere that the most powerful barcode was from the box of the console itself... |

And I've noted down those who never owned an Amiga. Your opinions are now worthless to me. Amipal there, admitting he used to put worth by my opinions. Fool. |

To be fair, anyone who owned the 1985 Apple was instantly swarmed by the ladies.

Hello, On the last train. Been at two different pals houses. Slightly leathered. Luckily Mrs Crank is at her folks and no work tomorrow. There better be a praline Magnum in the freezer when I get home. My train has qute a few Celtic fans on it. Pyjakson would be lapping it up. There is also a wee guy channeling his early Jim Kerr. The US12" mix of situation by yazoo is playing in my ears. I may have just said that all aloud. |

See I'm not claiming to be an expert in reading people's ages by their games console history (I absolutely am, my record is 100% so far) I think cobbler's history is deceptive, I'd go for middle aged, late developer. |
