Remember when cheap, Chinese knock-off consoles were the weird things you saw in markets that were far more likely to catch on fire than provide a decent gaming experience?
Well, erm, that seems to be no longer necessarily the case.
I've been fooling around with #Doom on the #MiyooMiniPlus recently... partly because it's cool that I can, but also because Doom is, somehow, still an amazing game. It feels, forgive the pun, eternal.
It's easy to forget just how seismic Doom felt in 93. It appeared from nowhere, when everyone was talking about #SNES or #Megadrive or #Amiga... and somehow made PCs a thing!
Feeling perfect out of the gate, it made other platforms chase that elusive beast - the worthy Doom-clone. Few came close.
My current feelings towards games right now is, why bother wasting time buying and playing the games companies are pumping and dumping for quick cash when I literally have thousands of games I grew up playing as a kid in a form factor that fits in my pocket with the #miyoominiplus. I still buy and play the occasional indie game on pc with the homies (abiotic factor currently) but right now I'm jiving watching anime, old cartoons and YouTube while playing games from my childhood
