Sorry I haven't been around in a while guys. I miss the Racketboy forums, but life has just been busy lately. I'm doing lots of overtime at the office plus the wife and I have a baby on the way. Still playing games as much as I can though (mostly retro of course), and for some reason out-of-the-blue started writing about my experiences.
I launched a blog today to post articles in my free time. I'm not a journalist, and nor do I aspire to be really. This is all for good fun.
Anyway, I hope you don't see this as a shameless plug and I hope you check it out sometime.
I enjoy shmups, but usually just because I can turn the game on and start up right away, not that I'm any good at them or even beat them. Anyways, that said I do enjoy the music. I've great memories of the Thunder Force music and I'm enjoying listening to the Raiden IV stuff on your blog. Thanks.
