Every now and then, I'll read or hear something about this case which will send me on a wild internet goose chase, were i will spend hours trying to validate or find another angle on something. Over the years, my feelings on this have almost gone full circle; at the start I felt Barry George was the...

Don’t forget Sonic Mania! I got a switch, don’t have loads of time to play on it, but recommend Mario Odyssey, Mario Kart 8, Crash Team Racing I hate FPS / violent games - not because I have any ideological objection, just never really enjoyed them. I was amazed when I first played Doom back in the ...

I’m wondering if anyone here is still using Windows 7 (at home, not forced to at work) as we had a few people here saying they’d even still be using XP after support ended.
