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…

Ordinary Decent Gamer was born out of a desire to write about games, but it has become so much more. Food, travel, DIY and more.

Narita airport isn’t exactly close, hence we were on the airport train at 6am. We were flying with Jetstar, a low cost airline, but because we were taking hold luggage we got…

  • Shibuya and Shabu Shabu – Part 4 – Japan 2019

    Part 4 in the Japan 2019 series. Part 3 is here. Like so many places in Japan, Shibuya crossing is unique. Two thousand five hundred pedestrians crossing with each signal change at rush hour. A crazed mass of people moving in every direction. It’s a tad overwhelming. Just pick a point and keep walking towards it. After…

  • Twokyo – Part 3 – Japan 2019

    Part 3 in the Japan 2019 series. Part 2 is here. I’ve been away at a conference and we’re in the midst of trying to buy a house, so I’m a bit busy, but it’s time to pick up where we left off. Calm down, it’s not what you’re thinking. We didn’t eat puppies, and…

  • Touring Tokyo – Part 2 – Japan 2019

    Part 2 in my Japan 2019 series. If you’ve missed the first part, you can catch up here. The excitement of making it to Tokyo was dampened by a lengthy immigration queue. This is one of few seemingly inefficient processes in Japan. It took a long time back in 2015, and four years later it…
