………….not something I’ve been into much in the grand scheme of things, just the odd we game of something here and there but recently however, I’ve started to get into it.

I used to be a console only chap who jumped straight from the Amiga/ST straight into console gaming, playing the occasional PC title that wasn’t a retro remake.

I’ve recently invested a few quid in steam games.
Trine and Super Meatboy being 2 or the most recent.
I am starting to amass a no bad collection which I’m starting to add to quite often what with all the special offers on steam.
You really should keep an eye out as you get some silly deals.

Anyway, the point of the tale is that I’ve bypassed some really splendid games due to my console joypad dependence and fear of PC controls.
Now those afflictions have been conquered, I’m playing gems I’d have otherwise missed.

So, if like me you have ignored PC gaming “just because”, and you have any sort of love of gaming, get steam.
Get a few quid on standby and keep an eye out for those offers and the belters that the full price tag is worth paying for.

Well, seeing as my gas boiler is on the fritz, I had to take a day off work to wait for the gas man, who incidentally has not turned up yet.

With the extra time on my hand’s, I’ve continued to build the site.
Added a games section to link to games I enjoy playing and want to share with the world .
First up is Braid so take a hop over to the games page and have a gander.

Also added a bar to the right with my other online identities.
Facebook, twitter, steam etc……….

Well, I’m continuing to shine the site and tweak it here and there.

Today, I revamped my pages into some sort of order.
I’ve future proofed my funnies, retro and music pages by building a structure where I have the main page for new posts and archive pages so that the pages don’t become browser crashingly large.

Take a peek to the right and you’ll also see my criminally under used twitter feed.
I keep forgetting I have the bloody thing so have decided to start using it again and made the feed available here.

Last but not least, I’ve decided to place a link to a game I’m liking at any particular point of time.
Just to share the love a little for wee gems you may have missed, blockbusters I’m enjoying ( I’ll have a P please bob – Ed ) or shameless pimpage of my own titles.

Site still in it’s infancy but coming along quite nicely I think.

Well, as the title suggests, we’re getting there.

Starting to form something I can call a site which is basically a blog for yours truly and a collection of things be it songs on youtube, funnies I’ve found, things I’ve found on the street or simply my need to get the junk out of my Budweiser addled brain out onto the internet.

I’ve started adding links to my other “specialist” sites if ya can call them that. Mainly my games site and soon to be relaunched comic site.
I’ve also linked to friends of Scottige.
Sites that my mates maintain or sites I am interested and active in.

For the crack, here’s a picture of Jetset Willy!

Welcome random person who’s stumbled upon my site.

Not even quite sure what I’ll put on here yet but here we are, my shiney new site!
I have several sites that I’ll link in together over the coming weeks.
Main thing just now was to get the software installed and get it all going.

To be continued………………..
