  • Who Am I?

     

    Yo! My name is Robbie. Join me as I fumble through this blog thing and rattle on about games and stuff that I like!

    I don’t feel like there are many gamers out there with my kind of tastes – at least it feels that way most of the time – so I’m starting this page in hopes of finding others out there, who like me, have strange kinda tastes.

    This is going to be interesting.

    So, if you’ve somehow found yourself here, then I hope you manage to dig A Certain Kind of Gamer.

NEWS, PICK UPS + MORE: Out Run 2019 // FAST BEAT LOOP RACER GT Delayed + Pre-Purchase // Apocryph // Logitech G920 Wheel // Gamer Getaway

Things have been a little quieter this week, but there are reasons, I promise!

Early last week, I crossed a big-ticket, bucket-list item off my ‘want’ list – a Steering Wheel for my PC! I settled on the Logitech G920 Driving Force GT because game compatibility is great, and well, its pretty.

Real pretty!

To say I’ve been happy with my purchase is an understatement. This thing has changed my racing world.

RANKED – My TOP 5 RACING GAMES For The SEGA Saturn ARCADE RACER JOYSTICK.

March 21, 2018 · by akumajobelmont

I’m not a peripherals kinda dude. I hate when people bang on about the one true way of playing things. Keyboard warriors shun those who prefer game-pads. People who prefer game-pads knock people who like anything else. Worst of all are racing game enthusiast who refuse to take players who use anything but a wheel seriously.

Not every occasion calls for a wheel. Or a game-pad. Or even a Keyboard and Mouse. Variety is the fucking spice of life, you guys!

Peripherals are just that – they’re extra options for those who choose to invest further into their hobby.

I recently made such an investment, and I told you guys about that in this post right here. Read More →

RETRO GAMER LIFE: New SEGA Saturn and Mega Drive Pick Ups!

March 10, 2018 · by akumajobelmont

Just a quick post today – I’ve been pretty busy with work the last few days, and I’ve been doing some volunteer work too, so I haven’t had much time to capture game-play, screenshots or anything else really cool like that.

But I have received a few bits and bobs in the mail. Fyeah… PICK UPS!

I’ve been really into the Saturn lately. I mean, I usually am, but am prone to phases where it’s all I play for weeks on end.

Hence the purchases.

I also got a killer new Mega Drive game to add to my (admittedly humble) collection of games for that system. Let’s get on with it, shall we?

FOUR Forgotten SEGA SATURN Arcade Racers You Might Just Dig.

February 8, 2018 · by akumajobelmont

If you’re a hardcore SEGA Saturn racing fan, like me, then chances are you’ve at least heard of the games I’m about to show you. No, they’re not all gems, and some of them are legitimately terrible. But I am prone to indulging that nagging morbid curiosity from time to time, so here’s a bunch of some good, some not Saturn Racers that not a whole lot of people talk about these days. For various reasons.
