Top games I played 2021

Top games that I played in 2021. The first part of the year continued with the lockdown and this is the year I got into FPGA, MiSTeR project. Spent a lot of time retro gaming, ZXSpectrum, Amiga, and Arcades.

I update the hardware and software on my arcade machine, managed to preserve the high scores, switched OS to Windows 10 and swapped out the Arcade VGA GPU with a generic ATI card that I modded to out 15Khz

Treated me to an RTX3090, so tried out lots and lots of ray tracing stuff. Its so nice just lifting the Visuals and performance setting up HIGH and not having to worry.
