@SonySantaMonica YES PLEASE.

[Alex Verrey @RealBigBoyBarry]

Astonishing. Still, this is often how I feel trying to update console firmware and software fix on the same damn day...

1969: When turning on the computer involved turning a key, checking oil levels, flicking 10-15 switches, and paging the boys in the generator room.

From BBC’s Tomorrow’s World, Feb 1969.

Our friends at @bitmap_books really have outdone themselves here. It's a thing of beauty and a MUST for Fatal Fury fans.

[Allan D @aduffy65]

It’s arrived and yes it’s as huge as the previous ones. A real labour of love and a must have for fans of the series #FatalFury #SNK @bitmap_books

[Alex Verrey @RealBigBoyBarry]

@depthhidden Hope you enjoyed the match! Yeah, to be fair, Dave was a great gamer but back in the day, these games were often new and the contestants had precious little notice on the game they were playing or time to practise. We Videators were much more fortunate!

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes on 4K Blu ray is true demo material. If you've only experienced 4K movies via streaming, you'd be amazed at the difference when watching with a decent setup.

[Alex Verrey @RealBigBoyBarry]

@bitmap_books How can this possibly be 40 years old?!

[Alex Verrey @RealBigBoyBarry]

@Willowrpe @YouTube What a legend.

[Alex Verrey @RealBigBoyBarry]

@FutureKick HAHAHAHAHA, love that! I had the same step down and Jesus, it was a UNIT.

[Alex Verrey @RealBigBoyBarry]

This was indeed the gaming equivalent of seeing Jurassic Park CGI and knowing that things will never be the same again. Mario 64 was similar.

[Pixel Cherry Ninja @PixelCNinja]

Nothing felt more next-gen than seeing Ridge Racer running on a PS1 for the first time.

That transition from 2D to 3D was magical.

What early 3D game made your jaw drop?
