I am joined by Tony Warriner who is one of the founders of Revolution Software as we discuss more gaming, gadgets and technology both retro and modern.

Topics include:

• James hunting for a SEGA Genesis in the USA


• Broken Sword Reforged Kickstarter blasts through £50,000 target to over half a million!


• Broken Sword 2 remastered?


• Did Tony from Revolution Software realise Broken Sword on its original release would be so popular?


• The design differences between Lure of the Temptress, Beneath a Steel Sky & Broken Sword


• Balancing PC minimum spec and recommended levels in development of games


• Sony PlayStation 5 Pro details leaked splitting the PS5 target specs


• Triple AAA titles and layoffs in the industry


• Netflix, Disney Plus etc and how we are cancelling subscriptions due to raising prices


• The needless pain of grinding in a game to progress


• Match 3 games and the lightning energy nonsense


• Apple EU App Stores


• Tony’s first article on Pixel Refresh, Beneath A Steel Sky Sets as Broken Sword Dawns – Revolution Book Preview


• James’ article on Pixel Refresh, CRT TV for Retro Gaming – The Beauty, Buying, Repair & Despair

• YouTube Premium, if only they would separate YouTube Music


• Apple Music for lossless, even on Android


• Where is Spotify HiFi lossless audio??? Literally years since the original announcement


• WearOS versus Tizen on smartwatches

NOTE: Tony or I lost connection at the very end, so the conversation goes a little odd as we wonder where the other person went :) Luckily the software locally records so Tony continued recording!
