I am a PCD

Two friends chatting about music, life, love, veganism and social media on Radio X. Excellent features such as "Humblebrag of the Week", "Made Up Game", "Abbatoir" (where some of the biggest bands in the world are debated and listener votes either put them safely in the paddock or consign them to the abbatoir) and "Winner Plays On".
Both comedians in their own right, Elis James is a football-mad Welsh mod and John Robins is a Queen-obsessed stickler for the rules. Both have enough in common and enough different opinions to make the show hilarious and something of a cult. Listen to all shows from the start to become a "retro-oner" and a "Podcast Devotee" (PCD).

Not as good as Mafia 2 (0 more)

A retro tale of revenge

Not everyone loved Mafia 2, but I did. I thought the story at the time was one of the best that I had ever played through, so I was extremely excited to get my hands on the third outing.
When the game was released though, I held off buying it as all I heard was how it was full of glitches and bugs. After a couple of months and a few updates, I eventually got round to playing it
Unfortunately Lincoln's story isn't as interesting as Vito's was. This is still a decent gangster story, but it is to Mafia 2 what Black Mass is to Goodfellas. They are both pretty good but one is a league above the other.

Taking out your sisters pieces

Figuring out the patterns of the slides.

I loved this game as a kid.... not sure it would hold up now.

I'd love to get my hands on a copy of this game. I'd love to try it out now and see how it holds up. I imagine it would be pretty easy to memorize the patterns of the boards sliders, The real skill is in knowing how to move them, and the placement of the marble pawns. I think I would have a blast reliving my childhood for an hour. playing best out of three. I also think this might make a very cool retro art piece for my gaming room wall.
