Hi everyone,

I'm Gaël aka Dacobah, living in France in the south of Paris. 50% collector, 50% player, 100% curious!

I didn't have the chance to own or use a CD-i when it was released, but I remember about Kether sessions on a french TV show. My dad worked at Peugeot and I can remember of an interactive program there about Peugeot cars with a trackball controller. I think it was "La Peugeot 406 en Val de Loire" working on a Philips CD-i.

Beyond that, like many people I was able to experience the computer revolution of the time, the appearance of Full Motion Video, 3D in games, interactive software on PCs. I am therefore quite attached to this period.

I like to spend time discovering unusual games. I also love to find games that have managed to make the best use of the capabilities of consoles and computers.

I'm also interested in underground electronic music from the 90s and 2000s (from artists like Laurent Garnier, Drexciya, Orbital) and I'm a big fan of Alice in Wonderland since I was a child. I also love Star Trek (especially The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine and Voyager).

I often visit The World of CD-i to find informations about CD-i titles and I think it was time to register.
So here I am 🙂
