November 2005. I’d just turned 23 – not long out of university and about to push forward with my career in games media properly by moving into a house/office in an attempt to make something out of what was to become VideoGamer.com (don’t visit it now, I warn you). This was, it’s not hyperbolic to say, one of the most important moments in my life. It was also about to be the first major new console launch of my career. What could go wrong?

This post brings back some interesting memories! It’s fascinating to reflect on how far gaming has come since then. Your perspective adds a unique touch to the conversation about that era. Thanks for sharing!
