I can remember my Dad and I playing on the Amstrad console - "Pang" and "Burning Rubber" (I think?) .... The controller connections used a serial type port and I can recall him having to fix the pins on more than one occasion!

I also remember one uncle showcasing the PS1 to us, with Gran Turismo and Time Crisis, and another uncle introducing me to Unreal Tournament on PC, a game that I still play today!
