Warhammer 40k and things that make you go Waaaaaagh!

The front cover of the Space Marine Codex from Games Workshop

Warhammer 40k holds a special place in my Sci-fi loving heart.

I have always had a soft spot for the big space battles of Star Wars, the grim dystopian feel of Blade Runner or Neuromancer and the visceral carnage of a good alien vs man battle featured in films like Aliens or Starship Troopers.

Hi there and welcome to Light Speed Gaming. Your one shop stop for uniformed and biased opinions on sci-fi and gaming!

Here we'll be looking at sci-fi, video gaming and, most importantly, sci-fi videogames.
(Insert ven diagram here)

I am a gaming nerd with more than two decades of video games playing under my belt, having played games on everything from C-64, Amiga, Playstations, X-boxes and PC's.
I'm also a huge sci-fi fan and have been ever since I first saw the original Star Wars trilogy (the only Star Wars trilogy really, am I right?)

I hope to put some of this experience and interest to good use to entertain and maybe even inform the reader about some of the cool stuff out there that keeps my childlike wonder of space and lasers alive long after my childlike innocence has gone the way of the Dodo (brutally clubbed down by uncaring Dutch hunters)

And with that, I declare this blog open!
