Gaming Nostalgia

I have always loved gaming. In fact, it’s hard to believe that the Wii James and I bought when we got together in 2007 was my first console, when you consider how much I’ve always loved computer games.

When I was just a kid we had an amiga, and then progressed to a PC with Windows 3.1 (yay DOS based games) and then carried on from there.

Lately I’ve been indulging in some nostalgia and playing the Broken Sword Directors Cut game on my iPad, and the Secret of Monkey Island Special Edition that has just been released as a PS3 downloadable game. I have always loved the Monkey Island series, and was very excited when the series was revived with both the new ‘Tales of Monkey Island’ and the remade Special Edition that is simply brilliant. They have done a fantastic job updating the graphics, music and adding vocals, whilst keeping it completely true to the original game. If you were a fan of the original game then you should definitely give the remake a go!
