Shin Megami Tensei V Vengeance Review (PS5)
I have always been a fan of RPG’s, including to a lesser degree JRPG’s. But I have never even looked at any of the Shin Megami Tensei titles. Like many games with Japanese roots, the over sexualised schoolgirl vibe has not been something I particularly like.
And on top of that, the batshit crazy storylines can be pretty overwhelming.

Disney Lorcana, a magical deck building card game
Disney Lorcana, for me, has been a bit of a curveball. It came to us out of the blue and at the outset seemed like a good idea. I mean that card game in The Witcher games was good, wasn’t it?
The premise makes sense, a deck building card game that draws on the multifaceted layers of the Disney catalogue. I’ve grown up on Disney, and so have my kids so we were keen to see where this went.

ESO: Gold Road – Byte Size Review
Welcome to the 2024 addition to Bethesda’s epic Elder Scrolls Online. ESO continues to be a game I return to on a regular basis.
A solid, grindy, MMORPG. I have covered a plethora of these add-on releases for the the base game, ESO: Tamriel Unlimited since 2015. I can’t help but feel that if you haven’t got into ESO by now then you probably never will.

Exo One, Byte Size Review, PS5
I have been playing video games for a heap of years now…(I’m getting so old). I can honestly say the most important change I have seen to this hobby I love, is the arrival of legit, top tier Indie Developers. They are brave, ingenious, and creative. They tread where big developers are too scared too, and offer such a massive array of experiences.
Exo One is the perfect example of this. Unique, beautiful, fun, and relaxing.

Destiny 2: The Final Shape Review
After 10 years of playing Destiny, being confronted with sitting down at my keyboard to “Review” the penultimate, era-ending expansion, is quite a daunting task.
After the rocky start in 2014, Destiny grew into my comfort food, my hang-out joint and the bane of my life. And in 2024 with the “Light and Dark Saga” coming to a close, what the hell do I do now!?

System Shock (Remake), PS5
Remakes of old games usually do a couple of things for me. They remind me what an amazing experience a particular classic game was back in the day. Highlighting just how “ahead of its time” it was.
Conversely, said Remakes if not done with enough modern vigour, have a damaging effect on my rose-tinted glasses, laying bare how very far video game design has actually come.

Ghost of Tsushima PC (reviewed on Steam Deck)
Ghost of Tsushima was my favourite game of 2020 so you can imagine my delight when the esteemed editor-in-chief of this site asked if I’d be willing to review the PC version, that has been ported by fabled dutch master Nixxes.
“Don’t have to ask me twice,” I chirped, given I’d already completed the game on PlayStation 4 and then played it on PlayStation 5: I jumped at the chance to play it on PC.
