PC and console gamer. Favour single-player and co-op multiplayer. Weaned on Sinclair ZX81, Speccy, Vic20/C64 and Oric Atmos. First game played was Pong in Jamaica. Next was on the Atari 2600 at a neighbour's in Nigeria. Then Space Invaders, Pac-Man, Galaga, Scramble and Zaxxon between a Nairobi hotel lobby and a Kolkata arcade. Seminal games on an emotional level: The Hobbit (Melbourne House), Elite (by Firebird), Sabre Wulf and Knight Lore (by Ultimate Play The Game, now Rare) to name a few.
DOS games brought me back to gaming after a few years away: Elite Plus pulled me back into gaming and opened up a whole new world starting with point-and-click adventures, Railroad Tycoon and the seminal Wing Commander II on floppy with the Speech Pack.
