All things gaming
Final Fantasy is a massive franchise, and a franchise I have a lot of fondness for. Having played VII, VIII, IX, X and XIII I’ve got a reasonable handle on the series. Of those, I remember Final Fantasy VIII with the most fondness and when I think about it, I’m not sure why. I’ve only […]
Approximately 20 hours, and I’ve played through the main campaign of Watch Dogs 2. What a great time I’ve had! Starting out strong, and keeping a pretty decent pace, I’ve enjoyed playing as Marcus or “retr0” all the way through. Joining the Dedsec crew and taking down the big boys of corporate America. I wrote […]
Apparently I can only play Ubisoft games at the moment. Not content with two Assassin’s Creed games and Watch Dogs 2, we’re now diving into The Division 2. Having played plenty of the original Division, and playing the closed beta for The Division 2, I can say straight from the get go that this is […]
I’ve written a massive amount about Destiny 2 over the past couple of years. But I’ve not published most of it. The reason being, that even though I ended up being so disappointed with it shortly after launch, I never wanted to bad-mouth a universe that I’d grown to love. The internet isn’t short of […]
Watch Dogs was a good game. Despite what people have to say about Aiden Pierce as a protagonist and the “trailer vs gameplay” graphical downgrade concerns. I really enjoyed it. One of my first games on the Xbox One, and the first entry in a new series that was taking the established Ubisoft sand-box game […]
Coming off two Assassin’s Creed games in a row, and bracing myself for Watch Dogs 2 (genuinely excited to get into that!), I’ve taken a step back and dipped into Destiny 2 on and off, and the latest sensation, Auto Chess. Note: there are various versions of the Auto Chess game now. I’ve been playing […]
Just shy of 40 hours in Origins, and my time with Bayek has come to a natural end. The main story is done, I’ve done plenty of side-quests and explored the world to the point of feeling content that I’ve had my fill. When I last wrote about Origins I tried to give as broad […]
Straight out of Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, and into Origins. The re-imagining of the franchise, kind of. 25 hours in already, and it looks like I’m approximately half way through. Damn, this new Assassin’s Creed isn’t messing about! Set in Egypt, at the time of Cleopatra and the Greeks starting to muscle-in, you play Bayek, a […]
It’s been about two weeks since I finished Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, but I decided to let it soak-in, and I started Origins, so I wanted to see how stark the differences were. Potentially giving me a different perspective on it. So, a couple of weeks since playing it, I had to delete it to make […]
Gaming is a great hobby, with so much variety and breadth. Niche titles, global communities and hundreds of ways to buy them all. The thing is, it can be a pretty expensive past time, too! It’s all well and good having a console or PC, but those games and subscriptions for online services ain’t free. […]
