The Path to Post Mortem
I’ve been spending an inordinate amount of time and effort working recently, so perhaps I should mention the sort of thing I do. I am a pathologist. Queue the sharp intake of breath. I can also feel a morbid curiosity taking hold. It’s not for everyone, and to be honest, very few people understand what…

D&D (Darkplace and Dining)
Come with me now, dear Reader, into the depths of my very consciousness. To a place of darkness and true horror. And discarded Peperami packets. A Dark Place This week we stepped into a particularly dark place. A place so dark, in fact, that it is difficult to even begin to explain exactly how dark…

Projects (in Process)
It’s amazing how much stuff around the house you can block out. Little projects here and there that you’ll get round to eventually, but never do. I’m setting out to change that mentality and get the fiddly things done once and for all. First things first, I’m on the… Chopping Block I have been using…

Do Android Sheep Dream of Electric Cars?
This one is a little delayed, but it hasn’t exactly been a normal week. What possessed me to try and do a long journey in an electric car, you might ask? Perhaps I just needed a distraction. You can’t ask a gadget fan if they’d rather have a Polestar 2 or a Vauxhall Astra. It’s…

Arid January
Adding a desert vibe makes it seem a little more exotic. In an effort to give our livers a break, we’ve joined the Dry January bandwagon. Well, we haven’t entirely joined.

2024, Don’t be a Bore?
That was a struggle, but titles don’t always come easy. Here’s a little retrospective of the last year. It has been a slightly exhausting start to the year, but one filled with more gaming than the last few months combined. In preparation for this post I had a look back through my archive and found…

Twas the Thursday after Christmas – Gluttony and Gaming
We’re firmly in that weird period between Christmas and New Year’s where the desire to sit around and do nothing is pitted against a restless energy to get out and explore. You’ll be pleased to hear that doing nothing won out. Well, not nothing. Sitting around and playing the PS5 while in a food-induced stupor…

Christmas Eve (the Prequel) – Preparation
Christmas Eve is here once again. It hardly feels like a year has passed, yet on reflection a lot has happened. For now, we’re staying firmly in the present on the lead up to the feast. Every year I go all out for the big day. It’s a great excuse to try things you’ve never…

Metal Gearing Up for Christmas (Ordinary Retro Gamer)
Christmas has always gone hand in hand with gaming in my experience, and this year will be no different. Metal Gear Acid Trip I have played a lot of Metal Gear in my life. Hideo Kojima’s masterfully created series has been with me at every step of my gaming journey. We played Metal Gear Solid…
