I grew up with the C64, then got an Amiga 500 followed by an Amiga 1200, and love to interview developers from those glory days! My site has lots of tech stuff!

@ainslec @tandemar @ainslec Would you want to buy a book that stated that the Empire Strikes Back was the 3rd movie in the original trilogy?

@tandemar I don't know Simon. None of my business I suppose but I followed you because I think you are a wonderful pixel artist but all these personal attacks on someone else doesn't make you look good. Maybe you don't care but I'm just saying. It makes you look worse than the other guy.

But he has "reviewed" dozens of books on his channel. More lies from the clown-prince of make-believe. One can believe he's not "a big reader" of anything judging by his mangling of the english language when he does attempt to read on camera.

@ainslec @tandemar I think Simon is trying to prevent the retrogaming public from being ripped off by buying sub standard products by a serial liar and scammer. All the stuff #KierenHawken peddles is not what it seems. Simon is doing a service by highlighting this garbage.

Wrong again Kieren! The game in the background is Treasure Island by Mr Micro. Mastertronic's Treasure Island was an interactive text Adventure. This is the artwork you should have used, but were too lazy or more likely too stupid to discover. #kierenhawken

@tandemar The closest he ever got to any games in BASIC were the ones he typed out of a book after claiming he was writing "his own" games. And got exposed shortly after as someone had the book and uploaded scans of the original type-in listings. Yet another #KierenHawken failure.

He's had 16 years and still nothing in Assembler, nor any sign of the games he claims to have written in Basic. #kierenhawken

@tandemar Yet "he" wrote Steve Davis Snooker when he was 7, somehow forgetting that the main ball calculation routines, physics etc were all written in assembly language (by someone else). #KierenHawken #retogaming #hack #liar

@tandemar #KierenHawken has been unemployed for decades, and unemployable for even longer. When did this supposed office job exist? Was it perhaps working at Durell Software with his uncle, while he was finishing off Steve Davis Snooker? #retrogaming #hack

"You're trying to look for somewhere to sit?" If you worked at this "big company" surely you knew where you sat every day?

Yet he loved attending retro events, that contain far more people than any "office" job. Has he never heard of headphones or ear pods?

@tandemar #KierenHawken probably thinks the voices in his head are telling him to go forth and spread lies about the "success" of Atari while shitting on everybody else in the #retrogaming community.

"most of the computers they made were ZX Spectrum games." Another pearl of a quote from the wordsmith that is Kieren Hawken. #kierenhawken

@tandemar At this point, I'd be more surprised if #KierenHawken got ANY facts about things correct! A lettuce probably has more chance of getting things correct than he does!

The prize prat that is Kieren Hawken claiming in his latest Amiga publication that Worms was released in 1993. Wrong again, dumbass! #kierenhawken

@RetroLiard A real shame that Forza77 couldn't contribute to get the project over the line, but he forgot because he was at a classic car show that weekend. Beast666 was a big fan of the project though.

Maybe @RetroLiard can do a knock-off version of the Atari ST scene history: - Without any interviews (all the sceners hate him) - Kieren as #1 supplier (buying game of the month like Human Killing Machine from the Home Computer Club) - Kieren as "cracker" of all games "he wrote"
