If gaming isn’t a part of your life, you’re doing it wrong.

PB and J (Plymouth Brunch and Janners?)
Cocktail history and etymology. What’s not to like? RE9 Update After a terrifying start, we’re in the midst of a Leon-centric segment in Resident Evil Requiem. It’s a great game and not one we want to rush to completion. We’ve also had a smattering of Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty which has been a lot of…

A Few Good Days
Travelling, food, and other bits and pieces. We spent a week of the Easter holidays travelling the South coast of England, spending some time around Windsor (Legoland), Canterbury, and Rustington. It was a lot of driving, but with the Polestar 2 it didn’t feel like it. The only bits that were a little hairy were…

Cyberpunk, Tomb Raider and a Tipple
While RE9 continues to scare the living daylights out of me, I thought I’d pivot to something lighter. I returned to Cyberpunk 2077 for the first time in a few months and still find it a fascinating game. It’s more playable on the PS5 than my original attempt on the PS4, and part of the…

Cooking with Clair (Obscur Reference)

This has been one of my favourite games of recent times, and I’m not generally into Final Fantasy-style turn-based combat. That is a testament to just how compelling the…

New Year, New(ish) Games
You died. Now get back up and get going. Death is only the beginning…of another run. Returnal Maybe I had my fill of Souls-like games in 2021, but Returnal completely passed me by. I was vaguely aware of it from Triple Click, a gaming podcast I listen to, but really only the degree of difficulty…

On the n’th day of Christmas (Happy New Year)
Which day is it? Depends on who you ask… Yes, we have just passed Twixmas and entered 2026. This is a particularly weird time of the year. There is so much build up and excitement leading to Christmas day that the slump following it is almost unavoidable. It is a time for sitting around the…
