Hammond (Wrecking Ball) is live in Overwatch on consoles! Straight off the bat, we’ve got one of the weirdest new heroes yet. A hamster in a mech, fulfilling somewhere between a tank and aggro role. What the…..?!?! Keep rolling Weirdness aside, Wrecking Ball is excellent. Not only because he’s a hyper-intelligent hamster from the same […]
This is really late, Moira was released on November 16th last year, so I’m not exactly keeping up with Overwatch developments very well…… I just haven’t played Overwatch for a while, and whilst the release and promo for Moira piqued my interest, I have a relationship with Overwatch that sees me play it in bursts. […]
I’m late to the party, in fact, I’m really late because I missed the event completely last year. So I’ve dropped Destiny 2 (long overdue to be honest) and dipped back in to Overwatch. It’s coming up to Halloween, and my goodness do the Americans love it! So, games start to get some Halloween-themed content […]
Apart from playing Lucio Ball, I’ve been hitting QuickPay as often as possible, and where I can, getting some time with Doomfist. I started out thinking he should be out on the front line, smashing through everything. But he seems so fragile, that jumping into large encounters seemed not to work well. Certainly not for […]
What’s a Doomfist? Doomfist is the latest hero released in Overwatch. After much speculation about his existence and when he would come into the game, Blizzard released a nice video giving a little background on the latest version of Doomfist and where he’s been. Then he was released into the test servers for PC players, […]

Following a nice, short build-up to her release, with the die-hard fans piecing things together on […]
Preface I mentioned before that Hearthstone was proving to be a grind, and level 20 seemed excessive, just to unlock another game mode………Well, I did it, and I’m really pleased I did! Tavern Brawl It’s fun! I wasn’t sure what to expect, another pay-to-play gametype? Perhaps another high-level set of rules, where the best prepared […]
Preface I’ve been playing Hearthstone casually now for a couple of weeks, and felt like I’d been making some solid progress. Now, I do not. What’s going on? I tried “The Arena” which I loved, a real test of skill, building a deck out of a selection of cards (you pick each card from a […]
Preface Ok, so my last Hearthstone post was about getting into it and giving it a go. This is a little update on that, and my thoughts on it after playing it a little over the past few days. Thoughts Well, I did what I set out to do, and unlocked all the classes/characters, […]
