Hi Everyone,

I am Ross and I have used the resources on here for many years now and finialy decided to join the ranks in the forums, mainly to say thank you for a tutorial. It is a crazy time in the world just now and while everything has been so manic like many I find myself with a little more spare time than normal, I intend to use this time to finish off some old projects that have been sitting idle. Current projects are:
PS2 - Instalation of internal drive & games
OG Xbox - I already have it fully modded with coin ops etc but could be improved with a larger drive and selection of xbox games, I do love the Duke!
Wii - Currently losing a battle with wii flow but will get there. This is my main priority as this will be the console for my sitting room

Main console I play is the PS4 and all those currently owned:
NES *2
Master System 1 & 2
Megadrive
C64 plug and play (not really a console and was a boot sale buy)
SNES Mini
NES mini
PS MIni (that gets a hard time however once modded its a great wee machine)
2 * OG Xbox
360
PS1
PS2 fat
PS3
PS4
Switch
PSP
DS
Wii

I plan on adding more consoles to the collection. My most treasured is my ZX Spectrum +..

Hope everyone is keeping safe and well

Ross

The ps2 is a great console. You must have the fat version. That’s the best one! Also, the wii is fantastic. Both consoles are great, because of their awesome backwards compatibility. I could never get wiiflow, though. I think my hard drive isn’t the right format. Instead, I’ve been using cfg usbloader.

My wife took a trip with her friend to endinburgh for a beach combing experience they have been planning 3 years prior. She loved it and the area. They had the time of their life. We plan to go back as a family, as my kids are super picky and the food seems similar to what they would eat. Can’t wait to travel again. Over this outbreak, we’ve cancelled 4 trips already.

Anyhow, perhaps I’ll see you in the ps2 section. :) Welcome home.

Thanks folks.
@slaphappygamer I missed out on the PS2 first time round as i had the xbox so looking forward to see what it has to offer. I specificly looked out the fat ps2 and spent a whopping £10 for it with 3 controllers, time splitters 1 & 2 and spiderman. Total bargain. Freemcboot was almost the same price if i remember correctly.

Edinburgh is a great place, love visiting, last visit there I got married :)

Awesome! Timesplitters is a classic franchise. Those games were so much fun. Even if my (younger) brother headshot me before I could find him each time. Lol

Anyhoo welcome aboard the crazy train that is the temp @RossMcG. Its really nice to have another Scottish person on the temp we are few in number sadly.
