Anybody else still playing Space Cadet 3D #Pinball that used to come with #Windows? You can run it on Windows 10! #retrogaming

I should have included @PinballFX on this... just want to help bring this bug to light.

@zen_studios Alien vs Predator Bumper Bug captured in Practice mode. 2nd time since I bought it yesterday. It's a game breaker. #PinballFX3 #XboxShare

For those who don't know, once the ball is stuck there, it never comes out until you tilt. So you can rack up an infinite score. The leaderboards for this table show that it's well known to players.
#Thanksgiving Pro Tip: If you run out of #turkey, remember that the walls of your house are full of wall meat. #retrogaming

I can't believe anybody thinks @DOOM Eternal contains a commentary on immigration. The joke is about a corporate defense conglomerate (the UAC) applying a PR spin on the fact that they opened a portal to hell. Fans of the series will understand it as such; it's a running gag.

Playing this new school TMNT #arcade machine at Funspot, surprisingly holds up to the classic pretty well. @funspotnh
Whatever happened to Tiger Electronics? #retrogaming
I'd show my 12 year old self the NES Mini to assure him that the skills he's building will be relevant in the future. #RetroGaming
Here's a question for you. What modern game would you like to show to your twelve-year-old self?

Since I've been obsessed with Halo lately, got the Master Chief Collection from @LukieGames for a good price. Can't wait to revisit Halo 1 and 2. #Xbox #Legendary
Rented a cabin in the woods for the weekend and found this awesome OG #Xbox setup! Three original Duke controllers and a pretty extensive library. Fyi, Halo deathmatch is a great way to wrap up a day of hiking. #retrogaming

For anyone who needs a "little pinball" in their life... this guy makes some pretty incredible miniatures. #pinball #retrogaming teapawt.net/scg8bit/status/9992524…

Been playing the #ONRUSH beta for an hour, but it hasn't clicked for me. No aspect of this game is compelling to me and I admit I don't get it. It feels like driving in a mostly straight line never letting off the boost. And then you win or lose but you don't care.

Dat Tractor! Can't wait to run some mud in that bad boy #XboxOne teapawt.net/MudRunnerSpin/status/9…
The Ridge, Spintires: MudRunner's new, free DLC, brings a new map, new vehicles, and new add-ons to explore and experiment with! Coming to PS4, Xbox One and PC on May 29.
I'd play Ice Cold Beer down at the far end of the row because I know how hard it will be to find again in the future. #retrogaming #arcade teapawt.net/SFGameroomExpo/status/…
Tackling the 200cc Class in Mario Kart 8 now... it is FAST! #switch
The sound of Hell's fury will be heard this summer when the #DOOM Original Game Soundtrack arrives on Vinyl and CD. lacedrecords.com
