About
I've been gaming since the 80s, and currently have over a dozen different consoles in my collection, with over 500 games and growing all the time. I am a father of 2 young girls, which limits my gaming time, but when I do, it's usually on the OG Xbox these days. You can see my current collection via the banner below.

You can find me on Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, and Instagram via the links below.
