Ep 3 - The XboxVision (Ross Taylor)07 Feb 202200:30:40

Welcome to the ChinnyVision podcast, the occasional trip into the realms of the dusty computer shops of yesteryear.

Todays guest is Ross Taylor, aka TheXboxVision. I first came across Ross's digital face nearly 20 years ago on a gaming forum run by an ex Amiga Power staffer, and back when I had a current console we used to get beaten by 8 year olds at Halo. I know him as a gaming guru, Amiga fan and as someone who worked at Game. But where did it all begin for him?

My first guest on the ChinnyVision podcast is Andy Bowd, otherwise known as @bowdie from Twitter.
