  • Another World Is Possible

    Just think how gaming might have been if Halo hadn’t been such a huge Mac hit? What if Bungie hadn’t been a Mac-based company? What if Myth or Marathon had ended up on that thing M$ nearly made, that Direct X crate?  Crazy, innit?  Anyway, neither could have beaten the Nintendo Playstation, eh? 

  • South Of Midnight

    If you haven’t played this yet, give it a go. I’m really enjoying the mix of story / combat (I play it on super-easy) #SouthOfMidnight #CompulsionGames 

  • Dem Crabs Again

    #HorizonZeroDawn is EIGHT years old.  #GhostOfTsushima is FIVE years old.  I am sooo old that I still think of both of these as “new” games hehehe #HorseshoeCrabs have watched mountain ranges rise and fall. What’s eight years if your species is nearly half a billion years old?

  • Where Is My Golf Course On The Moon?

    I love #Noclip’s docs, they’re the extreme level of detail I crave about games I love. At the start of this one, they say, “We’re now closer to when the first game is set in time than when the game actually came out.” … and my brain did a long jelly wobble in its calcium…

  • Jedi: Survivor – Nope

    Boom! Loading up this half-arsed, screen-tearing, moonwalking wreck of a game after the wondrous world of Horizon Burning Shores was the definition of the sublime to the ridiculous. Please stop releasing games before they’re even half-finished.

  • Cyberpunk 2077 – A Review After Playing for 130+ Hours

    Well, I finished it. It had a nice, elegiac ending. It’s such a mixed game. For the graphic designers, I’d easily give them 11/10 as there’s so much work and love gone into every little detail of the game. It’s just sad a lot of it takes time to rez in or disappears in front…

  • Where Are My Games?

    I’m watching a YouTube vid previewing upcoming games for late 2019 / early 2020. And I’m bored. There’s a slew of FPSes, some open-world, some not. There are some RPGs, there are some top-down tactical hoo-has. And that’s it. It’s the blandest offering of blanditude I can remember in a good long time. There’s nothing…
