MODERATORS
30s are rookie numbers. I'm 52 and still game regularly. I started out playing pong clones in about 1975 hooked up to my tv. I played a lot of zx spectrum games in the 80s, failed my degree in the early 90s because I spent far far far too long playing civ1 on my Amiga. Etc etc.
Fellow Amiga civ veteran, eh?
I blew most of my youth, and a chunk of my degree, on football manager too.
I regret nothing.
Need to get on over to !amiga@sopuli.xyz
The 512KB or the 1MB version of Civ 1?
Remember when Lemmings finally made it to PC and all us people who had Amigas were like, "I know, right?"
