1HMPS Retro Episode 19 - Game Over?

(this podcast has not been edited!) Hi there Retro gaming fans,welcome back to another episode o...
Time: 1:07:17
(this podcast has not been edited!)
Hi there Retro gaming fans,welcome back to another episode of 1HMPS Retro, todays your hosts are Andy,Glenn,Swainy and Malc (Tony couldnt make this episode as he was looking after his little boy)
in this episode I just wanted to let you all know that this is my last podcast and that I will also be leaving the site too and stop making video reviews too.
(All my reason are explained on the podcast but I thought I would blog about it hear too.)
I thought I'd owe it to everyone and tell you the reason behind me leaving.
The main thing is I want to concentrate more time with my wife and my kids as podcasting really does take up a lot of time and time is something I really havent got anymore since I do shift work.
Now I did think about taking a back step, which is why Tony edited the last podcast but that one week I had off made me realise how much I needed to give it all up.
Now please dont get me wrong I really enjoyed podcasting every week and I have made some amazing friends the co hosts,the communtiy but the truth of the matter is I need to move on from the site and podcast and do other things in my spare time.
Another reason I have had to give up the podcast is financial reasons, the podcast was costing me around £26-28 a month and I always struggled to pay that on a monthly basis and it also got me thinking that, that money could have gone into something else, maybe toward a holiday for me and my Mrs or maybe into a savings account for my kids.
But I think the main reason is that I just lost the passion for it, it became hard work and something I dreaded doing, it became a bit of a obsession I was always trying to out do the previous podcast and try get the audio just right.
I just wanted to clarify that I will not be shutting down the site and that I will continue to pay the yearly site hosting fee's, the site will carry one with the other members of the team and the community.
Just wanted to thanks the 1HMPS Retro team, who I consider friends(and i will continue to chat to and meet up with)
you guys were the best and still are and I couldn't of done any of this with out there help and support.
Big thanks to all our forum members who have been fantastic and extremely supportive
and thanks to all our listeners who have who have listened to us on a weekly basis and big thanks to all our special guest on the podcast.
I'm hoping that the site will keep going and getting better and stronger.
Thanks everyone its been a right blast and one hell of a ride and Ive enjoyed every single moment here on the site but its time for me to concentrate on my family 100%
cheers guys and please stay in touch
Andy

Back once again like the Renegade master!

Have you played video games from either the 80s, 90s, or the early naughtys? If you were brought up on anything such as the Atari 2600, C64, ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC (spit) or maybe the 16bit computers and console then you must check this show out. Real banter, none of that American nerdy dribble. This is a geezers pod cast!

Great Retro Gaming Podcast

This is a great off the cuff podcast. Really bringing back some great memories and also makes you chuckle with some no holds bard views. Just don't mention the software house US Gold!! Could do with some interviews with some of the 8 / 16 bit legends but other than that this is a great podcast. Well done!!

Just talking retro

Nice feel to this podcast. Don't expect slick, pre-scripted stuff, expect decent chat between 2 mates, off the cuff and most of all real chat about all things retro gaming.
Weekly is a great look. Keep up the good work.

Without a doubt the BEST podcast I've ever listened to!

The title of this review says it all! No joke!
Seriously, this is without a doubt the best retro gaming podcast out there. Thanks to the podcasts enthusiastic crew (especially Glenn!), you become really engrossed and feel like taking part in the discussion. There have been times where I have been talking to myself, as if I was in the same room and taking part in the discussion!
Keep up the good works guys! You are all doing great!
As the Darling brothers used to say, it's "Absolutely Brilliant!" :D

Another weekly gem

Your a retro Gamer eh?
Your wife not really into your hobby is she... and lets face it, your lucky to have a wife ( I know I am ).
So settle back and listen to an hours worth of Retro gaming chat and banter - It's like having a good old get together with your mates down the pub and everyone likes the topic!
So order yourself a beer, rush to get a comfy seat rather than that stool with the wonky leg and re-live the golden age of gaming ahhhh....now If i only had some real mates and was brave enough to go the pub... ...

An hour well spent

With gaming conversation spanning from the era of the rubber keyed beast that was the Spectrum, right through to the consoles released around the turn of the millennium, 1HMPS provides a great listen for anyone with fond memories, or an avid interest, of games from that time. At it's best when the team find time to complete the podcast en masse, each member offers knowledgeable opinion and thought from what is clearly a deep-seated enjoyment and experience of retro gaming (with the possible exception of Glenn who makes up for this with sheer enthusiasm).
Gives you an urge to get the chocolate cigarettes in, put on your Ultimate Warrior T-shirt and go and fire some catapult shots right into Boy Wander's mush. Good stuff.
