Coffee Talk
I don’t know about you guys, but I love a good people watching session. Nothing quite beats sitting down in a comfy cushioned chair in a secluded corner of a coffee house, drinking something bitter and warm, watching as a myriad of people you know absolutely nothing about go on about their own lives, seemingly…

Dr. Fetus’ Mean Meat Machine
Big games are great aren’t they? You can spend hours, days, or even longer exploring a deep, rich world that’s full of side-quests and things to find. BUt while they’re great, sometimes I just want to take a break and play something easy that resets my brain, where I don’t have to worry about anything.…

Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun
Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun is a fantastic example of a game exploiting the nostalgia for something that never actually existed. Its look and feel is exactly what late-thirties me feels that teenage me would have envisaged if told there was a Warhammer 40,000 set first-person shooter coming out in the mid 90s, right down to the…

Tron Identity
In my humble opinion Disney has brutally mishandled the Tron franchise from the get-go. Their ambitious 1982 film set within the inner workings of an arcade machine was a brilliantly original film whose influence can be seen in films like Ready Player One and Wreck It Ralph. While time hasn’t been kind to the Forty-year-old…

Remnant: From the Ashes
Remnant: From the Ashes released in 2019 and is generally thought of as part of the little subgenre of soulslikes that seemed to be everywhere in the second half of the 2010s. On initial release it got quickly labelled as “Dark Souls with guns”, a moniker that is both quite apt and also very reductive.…
