Of Masks and Capitalism

Hi, it's me, I'm back: The Central Scrutinizer!

The world's always been a bit of a crazy place, but not to the degree we've seen as of late. Aside from work, I've been relaxing at home, enjoying time with my girl and getting in on some quarantine sales. As a result I've been quite absent, but still having a good time.

At the moment, there isn't a great deal on my mind, so I will keep this one short and sweet. To any and all who happen upon this little bit, my thoughts and heart goes out to each of you in these trying times. Be safe, stay home as often as possible and be wise and mindful while out in public.

Prologue

Hello there. This is The Central Scrutinizer.

It's been a long, though eventful, last few years but I've finally been able to settle down and work on the things I longed to have time to do. One of them was to make this blog, which I'll be utilizing as a form of journal (mostly for fun and scrapbooking) and a haven to discuss gaming at its finest or, sometimes, its ugliest.

On the topic of gaming, I have an interest in a multitude of different forms. This covers both retro and modern, PC and console, a great deal of genres, ROMhacks and fan-translations, and much more. I have also grown into a bit of an RGB snob, with a PVM 14L5 and most of my older consoles SCART-ready all hooked-up. Scanlines for life, baby. Seriously though, you just can't compare the pixel-perfect, vibrant look you get here.


..Unless, of course, you have a NEC XM29 handy. How I long for thee.

 Well, anyway, I think it's time to get some rest before work in the morning. Hope everyone is staying safe out there during these odd times.
