ASHENS Made Me Do a LIVE TALK! | "Videogames are Weird"

Yes, thanks to the mighty Ashens I ended up doing a talk at people for PlayExpo Blackpool, specifically centred for a generalised audience around "Videogames are weird" with a heavy leaning on my own background (PC and DOS). Here, I've reduxed the talk into a more manageable form (It's still 50 minutes though because waffle) and you can watch the original here:    • Play Expo Blackpool - @RoseTintedSpec...  

Special thanks to ‪@mamehaze‬ for his work on putting this together, and a big thanks to ‪@TimberwolfK‬, ‪@ashens‬ and ‪@MoreFunMakingIt‬ for providing their video intros. There is a video intro missing, that was due from Kim Justice, but as she was there in the crowd she was just going to do it live... And then we didn't even get to that bit because we ran out of time, so that was fun!
