The adventures of Almigo

Look, it's not you, it's m- Oh who are we kidding here? It's you. Specifically the time you take just to install games when I'm at a loose end one night and itching to try something from my collection.

Well we got there in the end - trawling through 200 games that 3 years ago Hyper Magazine reckoned we should have played or at least tried. And while there were some obvious choices in there (Skyrim, Witcher, Gran Turismo 2) there were also a few noticeable absences from that mighty list. Maybe Hyper just missed them? Maybe the staff behind the list didn't share my love of what didn't make the cut? Whatever the reason, here's a few more must plays I'm adding to my own list. So without any further ado, have you tried the following...?

Oh god, it's the run home. The last 50 of Hyper Magazine's extensive 200 Games You Must Play list. At the start of this I figured I'd be lucky enough to have worked my way through even a quarter of what was on offer and with 75% of the list chewed through so far, all I need is 5 more in the 'yes I've actually played that' column to cross that milestone. Surely there'll be at least 5 in here I've hit the start button on? Will the Saint's get a look in here? Please?

100 down, just 100 left in Hyper's interesting list of must play video games. We've had text adventures as well as hits from systems I've never even crossed paths with but surely in this next 50 there'll be more than a handful that I've actually put finger to action button? Will Wu Tang Taste The Pain make the grade? Let's find out! Surely?

In the first 50 on Hyper Magazine's 2018 list 'The 200 games you must play' I found out I hadn't played many of them at all. As we work out way through the next 50, I suspect that low number I've clicked into will become a reoccurring theme.. Hopefully this isn't on the list

Early 2018 and according to Aussie gaming magazine Hyper, there are apparently 200 games I must play.  No exceptions.  I mean that's what the front cover screamed at me when I walked past the stand in the library earlier today. It doesn't look like it's giving me much of a choice here. But as much as I enjoy the occasional game of Super Monaco GP and Commander Keen, I have a sneaky suspicion that at best that without reading the full list, I've probably played a quarter. Possibly less - undoubtedly the list of games I have played will be far shorter than the have not.  But there's only one way to find out..

I've just discovered that the PC Game Towns is still installed on my computer from yonks ago . Let's fire it up and find out if my villagers are just as stupid today as I remember them being years ago when I first played it!

Ahh it's a hard life being Mayor. Especially when you're the self appointed Mayor in the game Towns on PC and Mac - that's quite a challenge keeping everyone from doing stupid things and protecting the town as a whole.   The birth of Idiottown Join me as we explore the zany things the citizens of Idiottown do on a day to day basis that explains why as Mayor of this backwater burg, I have no hair left.
