I am joined by Tony Warriner who is one of the founders of Revolution Software and Aaron Fothergill previously from Argonaut Games and now with Shifty Eye Games as we discuss more gaming, gadgets and technology both retro and modern.

Topics include:

James’ visit to Tony’s retro computer and console collection
Tony spending money to get his retro collection connected to a modern display – OSSC, RGB cables, power cables etc
Mister FPGA costs versus retro hardware collections
Aaron positive thoughts (and excellent excuses) on the cost of collecting retro hardware
The Atari Falcon, the development kit for the Atari Jaguar
Aaron’s first computer, which he still owns!
Modifying old computers ROM chips and copyright risk
My brand new retro hardware portable device for less than £1
RGB cables everywhere!
The Apple G4 Cube USB flaw
Skiving to get into computer games
The inspiration of the ZX81 and micro computers
My fondness of the Atari 65XE 8-bit computer
Bye bye ICQ
Tony and Aaron invent Code Jenga
Development is hard
Manually typing code from old books and magazines – oh the typos!
Code in books, to disks on magazines to digital DLC
What happens to digital licensed content when you die?
The importance of archiving DLC and game patches
Licensing music for games
The cost of patching a console game
The beauty of Xbox Live Arcade and developing the first games
Playing Xbox Live Arcade version of Golden Eye on an Xbox 360 debug unit
