A few hours early, and my code for Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds was sent through to get stuck in on Xbox One. After weeks of waiting, reading and studying, I felt like I was quite prepared to dive in and go for it…….I was, kind of. By my 3rd round, I managed to get a 3rd place […]

Just Cause 3 – Final Thoughts
Just Cause 3 has taken me a little while to get finished (it’s been sat on the shelf for a year or so…..), but I got it done, and it’s been a lot of fun! I’ve made my concerns known in the previous two write-ups for this game, and frankly, they still hold-up. Massive framerate […]
Just Cause 3 – Initial thoughts
As much as I love realisim, a great narrative, next-level game design and genre-bending mechanics. Sometimes I like to just play a game that knows it’s a game, and just enjoy some mindless carnage. I mean who doesn’t love ragdoll physics on NPC’s and the ability to just blow stuff up on a whim? It’s […]
Fallout 4 – So far, so good
I’ve hit about 15 hours in-game now and got a good feel for it. It still doesn’t “feel” like a Fallout game, at least not 100%. Much slicker movement and shooting and what feels to be a fast pace, in general, it feels like a first-person-action-shooter with RPG elements. This isn’t a bad thing, I […]
Destiny 2 Beta – How was it?
It was more Destiny. Simple as that really. Now that’s not a bad thing, not by any stretch. It just hasn’t blown me away with amazing new features or changes. If anything, there are bits that need improvement. The good It looks great, it feels great and I know full-well that I’ll be investing plenty […]
Destiny 2 Beta – Here we go!
The Destiny 2 beta went live on Xbox One yesterday, and so I dived right in. Joined by some of the VasDown boys, we got to grips with the strike and the PvP, after each playing through the “Homecoming” campaign mission. I started out with a Hunter and the new arcstrider subclass. [wpdevart_youtube]g8daac_VKB0[/wpdevart_youtube] Thoughts so […]
Destiny 2 – Beta incoming!
This is the week, the Destiny 2 beta is taking place from Wednesday, and I’ll be taking part and streaming as much of it, as possible. Starting with a hunter, I’ll try all classes and the new/refined subclasses. See how the game looks and feels, and traverse through the story mission and strike that will […]
Fallout 4 – Let’s get started
Fallout 4 has been on my “need to play at some point” list for quite a while now, and with me wrapping up Batman Arkham Knight, I’ve time to give it a run, before Destiny 2 hits and takes over my life. [wpdevart_youtube]kiXHOXWA98E[/wpdevart_youtube] I’ve been doing short, early-morning streams of my initial progress, and starting […]
Batman Arkham Knight – Final Thoughts
This game is/was wonderful. Rocksteady should be proud. It is the perfect end to a wonderful trilogy, and truly their magnum opus. Why? Well, I was engaged with the story all the way through, which is rare. Particularly in an open-world game where there’s so much to do and see. Maintaining a narrative at all, […]
Launching towards a win!
The clock hits 0:00, it’s a tie-game and the ball is still in the air. If it touches the floor, it’s overtime. Everyone takes flight to try and change the tide of the game…… [wpdevart_youtube]4Q0s2VwRaLA[/wpdevart_youtube]
