The "Legendary" edition a remastered collection of the trilogy was released in May 2021 for XBox One, PS4 and PC. I was a little late to the Mass Effect party.

Getting Prepared
The past few weeks have been manic - I don't mean inside my brain either. There hasn't really been a time when someone hasn't been coming and going from our house and it's taken its toll on my mood. Although I'm not hitting a full on depressive episode, I've not been feeling right. After discussing … Continue reading Getting Prepared
State of Decay 2: Heartland – Good But Disappointing (Review)
*Possible Spoilers Ahead* Last week I posted a blog about the XBox game State of Decay 2 and said that I would be doing a further blog and reviewing the Heartland DLC, and here it is.

100th Post!
As we’re in the middle of our move and I’m currently not doing any writing due to this, I wasn’t going to do a blog post, but I noticed that this would be my 100th post, and I didn’t want it to pass by without acknowledging it. I started this blog back in September 2020, … Continue reading 100th Post!
Trophies: Yay or Nay?
To platinum, or not to platinum. That is the question - well, it's not really it's just a nice intro to a blog about trophy hunting. For ease of typing I'm going to generalise and call them all trophies. Don't come at me saying the Xbox doesn't have trophies, because we all know they're the … Continue reading Trophies: Yay or Nay?
Video Games and Keeping Fit
It's that time of year again where people say they're going to the gym. This year though they won't have to get the membership, go for two weeks, and then never go again. At least in some places, they won't even be able to find an open gym. So how are people going to get … Continue reading Video Games and Keeping Fit
The End of a Holiday
Last week I posted about taking a break from writing over Christmas. I was only supposed to be coming back to it tomorrow (Tuesday), but I've missed writing more than I ever thought I would, so I'm starting again today. When I worked my 9-5 – even though it wasn't really 9-5 – in IT, … Continue reading The End of a Holiday
My Game of the Year (Hopefully No Spoilers)
This year has been a year of staying in - whether by choice or enforced - and playing games. Though there have been many new games this year, I've mainly been playing older ones, catching up on some that have been on my to-play list for a long time. Having said this though there are … Continue reading My Game of the Year (Hopefully No Spoilers)
December PSNow – Stranded Deep (A Review)
A few months ago we decided that to stop us spending a fortune on new games, and to play things that we wouldn’t necessarily have bought, we’d get PSNow. As we play through the games when they’re added, I’m going to give them a bit of a review and let you know what we thought … Continue reading December PSNow – Stranded Deep (A Review)
Monday Writing Update
Hello and welcome to another joyous 2020 day. Well, that’s enough of that, let’s get on trudging through the day until the next crappy thing happens. Today is the start of my “proper” blog schedule which should look like this; Monday: Writing update, where I’m up to with projects, how I write, and what I … Continue reading Monday Writing Update
