It's not often that you get to reminisce about old arcade games and help out a charity at the same time, so here's your opportunity. The Retro Ball is being held in December with the profits going to the Everyman Charity. There will be numerous machines to satisfy all of your gaming pleasures including arcades, pinballs and consoles.
A number of heroes from the retrogaming archive will be wheeled out as Special Guests, including the following motley crew:
» Jon Hare - Sensible Software MD
» Gary Whelan - Galaxian champion
» Ben Daglish, David Whittaker, Rob Hubbard - musos from the days of yore...
» Andy Nuttall - games programmer
» Archer Maclean - renowned publisher
» Philip & Andrew Oliver - One word... Dizzy!
You'll also notice there's currently a competition being run in conjunction with Retro Remakes, which you will find more details on later. The winners will be announced on the day, so get writing your remake and get in with the chance of getting your hands on some lovely new gaming equipment, including the Xbox360. Nice ;)
