I've been waiting for this to arrive. Original cover, non-platinum, original Wipeout (SCES-00010). All in great condition (such a big manual!) and really happy to have this in the collection 😍❤️🎮

I've had my second entry to Curry Club accepted in Elite Dangerous. Off hunting Thargoids and they managed to get my hull down to 0%.

I have never ever landed my starship so carefully.

Games are great. Games were great. Games will continue to be great. Bad games and greed have always existed.

So today 2K and Firaxis have announced Civilisation VII. While I am undoubtedly very excited by this, I'm also STILL trying to complete Sid Meier's Pirates and we'll be returning to the Caribbean this Sunday at https://twitch.tv/pixelbandits

Also can we please have a sequel now?

I'll level with you. If I had to pick my absolute least favourite Game Boss Who Is A Jazz Funk Guy Dressed As A Bee Who Leaps Out At You In The Forest And Attacks You With A Mystical Trumpet, it would be this guy.

Dernhelm made me buy this (and it wasn't cheap!) but this game is incredible. Here's the first fight in Gitaroo Man!

My community make it their goal to try and make me cry, regularly. Thank you ❤️

I started gaming early and these were some of the first ones I played. Such innovative work to fit stuff like this on to cassette tapes!

I cannot stress enough how much AD/HD and hyperfixation impacts day to day things. Also there was no need to go to this much effort but I did.

Elite Dangerous has a new ship. Come with me tonight to test her out from 20:30 BST. https://twitch.tv/pixelbandits

Stopping distance is going to be a fun one and we might even fit in a Hutton orbital run while we're at it!

My bus company has only run over pedestrians five times in the past week. That's fine, right?

Elite Dangerous is an old favourite but it still continues to boggle my mind even after thousands of hours in game.

For my Elite Dangerous Type-8 name I've stuck with my Tintin naming convention for Large / Trade ships. The Type-8 is now Karaboudjan II and joins Karaboudjan, Ramona, Unicorn, Marlinspike and Rackham.

Because I ****ing love Tintin.

I'm just so glad that our little twitch community is as filthy minded as I am. We all need to drag our minds out of the gutter at some point.

What should we name her?! Huge thanks to Frontier for the assist with getting my hands on the new Elite Dangerous ship - the Type-8 Transporter. I adore the aesthetic and our Thursday stream will be taking a good look at outfitting and how she handles.

Thanks also to the Truckers' own 21, reminding me that I can use HSC voice packs instead of my stream deck and for sorting access to Orion (William Shatner), Vasco (Brian Blessed) and Alix (Alix Martin)!

The best pirate game ever made? Feel free to come argue with me as I start a brand new live playthrough right now. https://twitch.tv/pixelbandits

Either way, it's one of my favourite games of all time ❤️ Sid Meier's Pirates!

Scream if you want to go older! These are the games which I grew up with and you know, I still love them today. Did you play any of these the first time around?

Controls are awkward, visuals are dated, but the fun and innovation is still second to none.

This Sunday I am playing what might just be the best pirate game ever made https://twitch.tv/pixelbandits seriously, name a better one?! Black Flag is a close second.

Sid Meier's Pirates! Will be on from 19:30 with a brand new sail through.

Huge thanks to Astragon for sorting out access for the stream!

Even when we're out camping we let our nerd flag fligh high. Our fire pit will (I am hoping) deliver second breakfast in the morning ❤️

A big hello to all the new folks. I promise I will get a better response to the huge number of excellent responses from new friends ❤️

We're currently camping with our three Micro-Bandits so that means a tiring day and of course, a little Nintendo Switch in the evening.

Kena: Bridge of Spirits is releasing for Xbox platforms. Here's my review in under a minute! Find a longer video and written review at https://www.pixelbandits.org/2024/08/kena-bridge-of-spirits-xbox-review GamingThreads

I'm just so glad that our little twitch community is as filthy minded as I am. We all need to drag our minds out of the gutter at some point.

I made some new viewer-triggered movie pop ups for the stream. They went down well with our little inclusive community of silly geese. Broken Sword 2 on original PS One hardware tonight from 19:30 at https://twitch.tv/pixelbandits

Thanks to Purple for guiding us through this Broken Sword 2 Easter egg. I'd never seen this one before, mixing up BS2 with Under a Steel Sky. Live again tonight to complete the game!

This is a great little touch in Police Simulator from astragon Entertainment I have far too much fun with this game.

Some of the names in this game are absolutely filthy (and I am here for it). This isn't even close to the worst.

If I had a nickel... God's bless this handsome chap for being such a good sport ❤️ and for everybody who's taken time to check out my gaming, retro gaming and geeky merch Https://Pixelbandits.org/merch

Don't lose your head! Definitely not the hardest fight in Flintlock but far from the easiest!

Tomorrow night I'm taking the long arm of the law to the US' Brighton shore with Police Simulator Patrol Officers from astragon Entertainment Come and enforce the common good with me at https://twitch.tv/pixelbandits

Aaaah IT problems. End user beware, the problem is YOU. Or more accurately. MEEEEE

Getting better at this with every playthrough. Can you beat my time?

If you like 90s or early 2000s video games, dad jokes and a safe online community I'd love to see you tonight from 19:30 BST https://twitch.tv/pixelbandits
