    Hey!

    Just want to say hi from the frozen wastes of Scandinavia!

    I'm one of the people brought up in the 80s and 90s with fond memories of everything from the Atari's of yester-years to todays PS4's. I still remember my father bringing home the NES from Asia a solid 2 months ahead of the local launch and holy digital was that awesome. And that was pretty much how I got into gaming (and never got out ).

    A few years later my first computer came along (hello 286) and 30 years later I'm spending hours upon hours exploring digital wonders in made up worlds with friends I've never met. It's marvelous. Just don't ask me how team sports work... Unless it comes with buttons and/or gamepads.

    Anyways, I found the IGG and the idea of a community of people who love games just for the sake of games makes me so happy. So that's my origin story and here's hoping for a lot of fun and interesting stuff to come!

    Cheers!

        It was marvelous growing up in both the analogue and digital worlds wasn't it?

          It was!
          I am so happy I got to experience when multiplayer meant actually going to someone's house and sit on the same couch while playing.

          Not that there is anything wrong with today, it's just different. Seeing and living through the digital evolution does give a certain perspective that I enjoy a great deal. It makes me appreciate the games of today even more.
