Some days just hit differently. Maybe work’s been relentless, you’ve had a string of awkward social interactions, or you just wake up in one of those moods where nothing feels quite right. On days like that, I don’t want anything demanding. I’m not looking for a challenge or some fast-paced new release that expects me … Continue reading Comfort Games: My Go-To Escapes When Life Gets a Bit Much
Video games have been around for a long time now and in that time they've evolved in many different ways. One noticeable difference is the prevalence of multiplayer modes or just flat out multiplayer games.

I've done a couple of these posts relating to some of the more finicky trophies to get on certain games. You can find the Vampyr, Skyrim, and Fallout 4 one by clicking on them here.

Having said this though there are … Continue reading My Game of the Year (Hopefully No Spoilers)
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)

Skyrim is probably up there with Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, The Last of Us, and Mass Effect, for the games that I’ve played the most. Yes, it’s buggy as hell.

The Next Stage is now out, and after a few days of taking it easy, I’m back to it. I currently have 5 or 6 things that I’ve started to write, and I was trying to think which one I wanted to continue with. But me being the really intelligent human being I am and … Continue reading New Beginnings…
