Browsing through my newsfeed today, I saw mention of Retro Ping Pong, and at first I wasn’t completely sure what it was. Pong is one of the first video games I played (perhaps THE first) thanks to an Ingersoll console, but I was playing the original – in emulated formRead More →

Worms fans rejoice! The Director’s Cut for Amiga computer systems will feature at least one map based on Turrican. How’s that for the ultimate crossover?!
