Coder by day, gamer and film fan by night. Websites are one of many things I do. A big fan of classic/retro gaming especially of Atari systems. I can also cook. ;)
The year is almost done and hopefully the usual vitriol has died down from the latest iteration of The Game Awards, where some game or platform has been robbed, so it’s time for me to sit back and think about what’s been good and bad about the games […]

One of the highlights of the Xbox 20th Anniversary stream was the news of Halo Infinite‘s free to play multiplayer would arrive earlier than the planned December launch date of the campaign. Slotting it between both Call of Duty Vanguard and Battlefield 2042 was an inspired move and […]

I’m happy to admit that I’m a massive fan of the original Xbox Elite Controller. Despite criticisms of build quality I had few problems with mine since picking it up at launch back in 2015. My experience was so good that I’d say it’s the best controller I’ve […]

It’s amazing to think it’s been more than 12 years since Turtle Rock Studios created zombie co-op shooter Left 4 Dead. The game and its sequel won over players with wanting a PvE experience with replay value. The Warhammer: Vermintide games are a recent example that show that […]
