Having covered the best revisits of the year in my last post, it's time for the main event... As each year draws to a close myself and every other gaming blogger (I assume) fall under some strange late-December trance and are compelled to make a list detailing their top games of the year. In an... Continue Reading →
Revisiting Listmas: Part 1 of 2
It's been a strange year... arguably the only constant has been the consistency with which myself and other bloggers seem to begin articles with the phrase "It's been a strange year"... but you know, it has... I've mentioned it before, but part of that strangeness has manifested with me turning to Nintendo's little-console-that-could, the Switch,... Continue Reading →
Overwatch: POTG Luck
I'd be lying if I said that my recent interest in Overwatch wasn't a hankering for some of the 'Good ol' Days' I spent hanging around TF2 servers. In recent years, my online FPS playing has been a gentle mix of squad based co-op and the unavoidable Battle Royale invasion, but those days of chipping... Continue Reading →

Night Trap: Awww Grrrrrrr…
Spoiler Warning: This article contains plot spoilers for the game 'Night Trap' Call me childish, but there's a small part of me still smirking at playing 'Night Trap' on Switch; a game that Nintendo's North American President once said would "never appear on a Nintendo System". Even stepping away from that, it's clear that the... Continue Reading →
Golf Story: Frosty Log

A little birdie told me that, being essentially... Continue Reading →

Mario & Bowser: Maybe We’ve Been Lied To
Spoiler Warning: This post does contain some plot spoilers of Super Mario Odyssey... you have been warned! ... it's also pretty silly... My brain began turning last week after I posted a pretty off-hand Tweet about Mario's behaviour in 'Super Mario Odyssey'. It was only after that I started to question what I'd been shown...

Zelda – Breath of the Wild: In Defence of the Story
Spoiler Warning: In this post I discuss the plot, including the ending, of Zelda: Breath of the Wild...the clue is in the title... As my first real outing into the Kingdom of Hyrule, I've thoroughly enjoyed BotW and feel at least slightly more qualified now to engage in a Zelda themed conversation than I did...

Switch Hardware: Autobot or Decepticon?
Whilst last week I was musing about the accompanying parental control app, this week I've decided to subject myself to a vague hardware review and ramble on about my initial Switch impressions. I've been Zelda-ing, Sonic-ing, and even a little Splatoon-ing (when I can get my Wi-Fi connection to behave) on Ninty's latest box-of-tricks for... Continue Reading →
