Wasn't much for him myself buy he was a very intelligent guy and I had a lot of respect for his knowledge. He just gave me the creeps when he spoke.

RIP Patrick, I liked the guy.

 

[Rookery]

I liked his enthusiasm for and expert knowledge of his field of interest and the fact that he didnt come across as a pompous smart arse.

Anyone remember him on Gamesmaster?
I remember recording the end of the programme for cheats for games. It used to go really fast so you had to record it & play it on slow mo on a VHS. Was all jumpy & really hard to make out. Those were the days!
RIP Mr Moore!
