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…

Reflection to help me understand and appreciate the experiences I have had. Lately, most of my writing has been scientific in nature, constrained by logic and reason, forcing my creative side…

  • Interesting Games

    Games have taken a backseat to work at the moment, but I have stumbled across a few interesting titles I would like to get into. Octodad: Dadliest Catch What a peculiar game. Made originally by a group of students from DePaul university, you play a man who, unbeknownst to his wife and children, is a…

  • Eight till eight

    Sunday working was only the beginning of my long working week. Monday was a marathon of a day which had me busy from 8 am right through to 8 pm, and I spent the next day recovering. The good news is that I finally have data! Not that I’ve actually analysed it, but I’m happy…
