For a while I was debating with myself whether or not a game that finds itself in Gamepass day one should qualify for Indie Fest… once that had been decided, would I actually play this game at all… an...

Two years ago today I took the plunge and upgraded my Xbox Live subscription, of which I had 2 years subscription remaining, to Gamepass Ultimate… for the princely sum of 1 pound, I now had 25 months ...

For me part of the allure of playing video games is that they can take you away from the real world briefly, into a fantastical world of wonder… where gallant knights fight for a maiden’s honour, wher...

The end of March was always going to be taken up playing a JRPG… I just didn’t expect it to be this one… this was supposed to be when I played the second part of the Final Fantasy 7 Remake… but the mo...

As far as grabbing my attention goes, Return to Grace does a lot of things right…1. A short science fiction story along the lines of an abandoned complex and a long dormant AI2. Graphics which give of...

The biggest Achievement streak I have was 40 consecutive days covering most of March 23 and the start of April 23 where I unlocked a total of 296 Achievements… this surpassed my previous best of 38 da...

I’ll admit that there are times when I wonder quite why I use my Reward points to keep my subscription to Gamepass Ultimate ticking over… I say ticking over… at time of writing I have 30 months left o...
