  1. Hi guys.
    Thanks as always 🙂

    I played a lot of Magic the Gathering because a new expansion was released. And since wrath of the Koch king classic was released for WoW I got back to it for a lot of hours 🙂

    Regarding the topics: I have a simple stereo setup at my pc, because most of the time I play with headset anyway to talk to my friends in discord or listen to music. In my living room I have good 5.1 setup with a new receiver and 5 nice Teufel speakers 🙂
    X-com: I played it 10 years ago but I don’t think I will replay it. Maybe … we will see.
    Pac-Man 4 sound interesting… maybe I will check it out 🙂
    Kirby Games: I think the only Kirby game that I have played is the one for the first game Boy back in the days. Good old times when you spend a lot of time to a single game!
    The other games I barely know … i have heard of fire emblem but never played it :/

    Please stay healthy and keep on gaming!
    Greetings from Germany
    Ralf
