Hello People!

Hi, {dizzy}:dizsmile:

I'm Claire, and I've been playing games since I got my Spectrum in 1986.

I am a full time carer for my two disabled parents.

I've recently got into retro gaming, and have sold all my games and consoles to buy retro stuff. I currently have a Gameboy, Gameboy Colour, Gamegear, Megadrive, Mastersystem converter, Playstation, NES, N64, Saturn, and a Dreamcast and loads of games.

I still am on the lookout for a 'woody' Atari 2600, and a spectrum+.

My musical tastes cover many things from Elvis, The beatles, etc, right up to anything I like in the charts today. {yolkfolk}:music:

I have a special fondness for Goth Music - Mortiis, Cradle of Filth, Dimmu Borgir, Nightwish, Him, and I like different types of Metal - Rammstein, System of a Down, Iron Maiden, etc.

I have 4 pet Budgies, which are rather entertaining!

My fave films are The Ring films. I have the 2 American versions, and the 3 Japanese versions. I am looking forward to The Ring 3 coming out in a year or so.

Anyway, thats me!

Welcome to the Dizzy Community Claire :smile: I guessed that you are a Spectrum fan from your username :tongue:

I still own a Spectrum and a Commodore, I don't think they still work though :sad: and I also have a Megadrive that still works, along with Fantasic Dizzy. {yolkfolk}:dizzy:

I'm more into adventure, arcade and puzzle games.

Hi there, Claire, and welcome to The Dizzy Community! {yolkfolk}:dizzy:

I am a retro lover too, I especially love games from Commodore 64. I still have it (even two {dizzy}:cool: ) , and sometimes I play games on it (like yesterday) - one of my favourites is "The Detective Game" (after Dizzy of course!). I have also Playstation One, but it doesn't work (don't know what happened to it.. :sad: ).

Regards,
Micrus :smile:

oh wow, i love nightwish, SOAD, etc.

if you like nightwish, you should listen to Within Temptation. i seriously recommend their album 'The Silent Force', it's amazing. {yolkfolk}:music:
