I'm not going to lie to you.

I'm not down with this whole situation.

But I'm not going to sit here and drop the hammer on somebody right before the holidays.

I know there's a lot of people that are excited about this.

Hey, I'm not going to grinch this thing up.

I hope the ultimate C64 is awesome and everybody gets one of their tree and they're very happy and satisfied with it.

well they had we had game charts that helped uh we you know the american gaming magazines i mean and i keep in mind that i was a computer kid you know i grew up with the coco a tier city color computer and eventually got into the tandy pc line so then i became a dos guy but the we didn't top 10s and top 20s and all that jive i mean i don't i

don't hardly remember even seeing that in american magazines uh and you know it was just mostly reviews and you know this is why the second i got uh my amiga i just started getting all the the uk magazines because i thought they were way better they were just like american magazines were more like they would cover uh a lot of different topics i'm looking at something like say

pc magazine or something i mean there weren't a lot of gaming specific computer magazines either i would get like hot cocoa or rainbow for the cocoa and they would cover tons of stuff not just games i didn't care about the other stuff i just wanted the game content and to get that kind of action you would go to the uk magazines when i got the amiga and i saw uh you know amiga action and all these other uh magazines that were out there i was like holy smokes

Just games.

This is what I want.

So in terms of a top 10, I don't think you could compile a list like this in an American magazine.

It's not that I saw because I don't remember seeing that much of it.

I have to say, because I watch a lot of British stuff, I've never seen Blake 7.

That's one I've never crossed paths with.

I did watch Space 1999 back in the day, because I also like Martin Landau.

By the way, Ed Wood, he was great in that.

If you've never seen that, I think he won an Academy Award in that.

But...

I always thought it was sort of a dry show compared... I was a Star Trek guy, the original Star Trek.
