Your top ten video games of all time

Playing Battlezone for the first time in a local pool hall blew my pre-teen mind and got me into video games. Years later converted a battered old Gravitar machine into a VectorMAME cabinet, playing all those vector arcade games on an original colour vector monitor. My avatar is a still from me playing Tac/Scan.

Noita rules, based on an old 90s indie game Liero that we played the shit out of back then.

Thatā€™s awesome, never heard of that one! Noita also reminds me of this browser game from back in the day:

I (naughtily) picked up a Steam Deck a week or so ago and someone recommended Noita to me. Iā€™m still obsessing over Vampire Survivors but I have jumped in a couple of times and can definitely see the attraction. Looking forward to playing it more!
