Nice. Well 80 (ish) is the most I’ve ever seen at once.

Hi @dominiccouzens.bsky.social @martinwood60.bsky.social I’ve just seen a flock of around 80 Fieldfare up in South Wales. Surely it’s too early for them at the moment?

If you mean Brandon's post, I have.

Christ 😆

Say. We need to know.

Jesus, we only interviewed him a few months back. How sad.

Didn't even realise that was out, we've not heard anything about it!

Yup, as you can imagine I'd asked for even more stuff to be packed on there, but there simply wasn't the time!

264) Issue 200's cover features three members of the Retro Gamer team from that period. I'm reading the mag, @hkt3030.neocities.org is playing an arcade game, while Drew Sleep is playing Super Mario World.

263) We used to have a series called Classic Game that broke down a game in different ways. That series still continues sporadically today, but is now known as Classic Moments.

262) EndGame is the only article (to my knowledge) that began life in the Live Publishing era of the magazine and continues in every issue to this day. It's effectively our final piece of editorial and is found on page 114.

261) Issue 37 was the first issue where we gave significant space to a homebrew game, that feature being a Making Of Jet Set Willy Online

260) While we've never written a cover feature about the Virtual Boy, it has made it onto the cover several times. One was for 141's Gaming Disasters, one was for 260's Nintendo's Innovations and the last was a simple corner hit for a cover I don't remember the issue number of.

259) When I wrote a Retro Revival about Golden Axe in the early days of the mag, I referred to Death Adder as Blackadder. Apologies to all fans of Golden Axe and Blackadder.

258) When we reviewed Sonic And The Black Knight, I made a mistake and referred to it as Sonic And The Dark Knight, no doubt upsetting both Sonic and Bat Man fans.

I have that as well.

This looks awesome. Love in-depth coverage of the classics ❤️

No idea. Tasty, though.

Made some macaroons, ran out of chocolate

I started losing interest in Big Bang when I realised it’s mocking the whole nerdom thing rather than celebrating it. It gained something with the introduction of the woman but I never finished it.

To be fair I like Friends but Ross is one of sitcom’s most hateful characters (he’s a narcissist and I never like those) while Racheal is just massively unlikable. It’s really homophobic as well. In fact it’s flaws become really apparent when you binge it. I still enjoy it, but it’s very of its time

It was, it was more of a dig at Friends and Big Bang to be honest 😉

Probably because we’re both on the Spectrum 😂

True, but Community is so subversive I don’t consider it a sitcom.

They’re got the best bromance since Turk and JD

Ted Lasso is great ❤️. I think the thing for me with Brooklyn is that unlike the likes of friends, frasier, big bang etc, there’s no characters I don’t love and the growth the all have is exceptional.
I don’t think it’s going to age in the way shows like Friends have as it’s already so progressive

Man, that sucks ☹️

Another great show

See I like the last two seasons. It’s got one of the best endings for a series too, up there with Parks & Recreation for me.
