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…

For those of you not pathologically acquainted, the datasets are essentially manuals explaining how to handle specimens from all the main cancer types,…

  • It’s Valen-time for Another Post

    Valentine’s Day has come and gone for another year, and I spent it in the company of Adobe Premiere Pro, and an old friend. I am of course referring to Jessica 17, a film which was rivalling Duke Nukem Forever in the category of time spent as vapourware. The Story of a Troubled Teen Jessica…

  • Dinosaurs and Pathology: Dinopathy?

    Dino Crisis Welcome back, folks. This week marked the release of Dino Crisis Revival, the latest Ordinary Decent Gamer video. Special thanks to Calum for the dinosaur voice over (check out his SoundCloud) and to Sarah for many funny ideas, and a critical eye. I’ve got a certain fondness for Dino Crisis, having watched it…
