Watch: Ian gets all nostalgic for the ZX Spectrum with Hyper Sentinel

Just like the dinosaurs used to play, probably.

The great thing about having a fairly well-balanced video team is that we all have our different areas of taste and expertise. Chris is the turn-based nerd (all hail the strategy king), Johnny likes Westerns and anything board game-related, I like queer, sexy, or story-based stuff (preferably all three simultaneously), and Ian likes basically anything with a gun, or anything really old.

Which is awesome, because I can't speak for the rest of the team but I am not familiar with the ZX Spectrum. I don't know who or what Uridium is. But that's ok, Ian does, and he talks all about its spiritual successor and the development studio behind it in the rather brilliant video below.
