Preview: Farm Mechanic Simulator
The world of simulator games used to be incredibly niche; back in the days when video games were looked down upon by the general public, even gamers themselves would often […]
Opinion: Next Gen – Again
I know I’ve written about this before, but something weird has happened not just with the ‘new’ next gen consoles, but also with the last few generations: I’m just not […]
Opinion: Next Gen
You’d barely know it, but the next generation of consoles is now less than a month away. Yet the hype and the excitement seems to be incredibly muted. Both PS5 […]
News: Xbox Series S & Series X
So it all started with a supposed leak on Monday night. Before we knew what was going on, we had the price for Xbox Series S, a console that had previously only been rumoured to exist. It sent shockwaves through the industry – clearly, with a price of $299/£249, Microsoft were not playing around. And mere minutes ago, we saw […]

The 3D platformer has been undergoing a bit of a resurgence recently too, with games such as Yooka-Laylee, not to mention the remastered […]
Opinion: Backwards Compatibility
There’s endless rumour and speculation about the lengths to which Sony’s upcoming console, the PS5, will be backwards compatible with previous PlayStation consoles. Though this will be put to rest this week – hopefully – with the PS5 event scheduled for June 4th, we already have a very clear idea as to where their closest competitor – at least in […]
Opinion: Xbox Series X Features
I must be psychic. Just a day before the Xbox Series X specs and features announcement, I was bemoaning the laziness of remasters – now here we are with the knowledge that first party (and third party, if the publisher chooses) games will essentially be forward compatible on Xbox One, meaning that you will be able to purchase a game […]
