25 YEARS OF DIGITISER: DAY 4

4/1/2018

Why, it's the penultimate day of this special anniversary week of Digitiser. Today, we feature an actual Amiga game review - courtesy of Digi's very own Adam "Mr Cheese" Keeble, who returned from his self-imposed exile in Peans just to pen this review - as well as appearances from a host of your Digitiser favourites! Stuff it into your craw beginning... NOW.

TOMORROW: THE CELEBRATIONS BEGIN (END)!

Another triumph!

I received A Gremlin in the Works for Christmas (along with Ashens' book) and it is rather excellent.

I think you'll find, Mega-Catt, that metal ist sehr krieg.

Absolutely loving the classic Digi revival! (not that I don't love Digi2000 - I love that too!).

Oh man! I wondered why my mother wasn't answering my texts. I thought it was just because she's shit at phones.

I think I’d forgotten quite how acerbic Digi could be. I wonder if it comes across like that partly because of the format...? Or maybe Mr B is just nicer to us all on 2000 (a bit)?

Weirdly... I've been thinking about this too. I think it's a mixture of both to be honest. The Digi style was to be acerbic, and rude to people and games. It was partly a result of the format - you get a quick laugh if you're snarky, and there wasn't always the space to write something a bit more complex and subtle. Plus, the word count being so short just makes everything a bit punchier. But coupled to that... yeah... we were all different people back then. I feel a bit bad about that these days, and do think about it from time to time. I think am a bit older, wiser and nicer. BUT! I bought back snarky Biffo for the 25th. It wouldn't have been old-Digi without it.

I'm loving the return of old (young?) snarky Biffo. Reading this is like i'm 19 again *blubs uncontrollably*

Gotta get my hands on some of Mega-Catt's fresh sounds.

Thank you - this was just what I needed today to restore a little vitality back into me. All the big hitters! Zombie Dave! Chester! Computer Boy! Cheese! And especially Le Chef... happy now.

Oh, and the Man's Daddy doing the waspticians joke nearly made me spit out my gin!

Zombie Dave is my absolute favourite. Loving your work this week, by the way. Happy Anniversary Digi!
