Somethings never change. I’m hopeless at computer games now and I have always been. Tele-tennis or the latest PC game, it makes no difference. I avoid them all.
Space Invaders was different. Back in 1981, all the pubs had a Space Invaders machine and I would invaribly head over to one after a few pints and get zapped by aliens. I think it must have been used as a guage to determine my level of intoxication as I wouldn’t normally have dreamt of feeding coins into a machine when sober !
