A Child Of The Micro - Retro Rivivals & The Path Back To Play

In this podcast I explore what was my best childhood Christmas ever. In 1984 I received a ZX Spectrum from father Christmas and my whole world changed forever.

Some 40 years later, with those gaming days firmly behind me I've had the chance to go back and relive those days once again. But this time from the perspective of a world weary member of the human race.

What has changed and what hasn't? What is the advantage for re-engaging in childhood play? And can I even play some of those old games?
