I don't know if anyone else has had the thought - "surely the Marks and Spencer BIG DADDY bar can't just be a nearly half-kilo boutique Snickers rattling around loose in a cardboard box?" Everyone, dreams can come true:

They’ve asked me onto the BBC Nottingham breakfast show on Tuesday. They’re gonna make me do the Big Ron voice. God knows what I’m going to say “Give your wife the best. Give her the news with Clare Runacres” This continues to be ridiculous www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Hey guess what, I'm obsessed with Blue Prince. My notebook is a mess, my brain is on fire, this game is extremely cool. Some words: news.xbox.com/en-us/2025/0...

I, for one, am excited for Red Faction: Gorilla

Obviously, I think the new Remedy game looks brilliant

Not content with reinventing a genre, Golden Idol's latest DLC starts deconstructing its own ideas in ways that kept making my mind fall over. Please never stop giving me new Golden Idol.

Just a reminder that Monster Hunter is the best

I'm officially a published author (of a two-sentence book (in @inkle.co's Expelled!))

Absolutely loving Keep Driving, and I'm particularly loving that when you get a hitchhiker with a dog, the dog sleeps in sunglasses

Love this. If you've been wondering how to find your next game, this feels like a very fun way to do it.

Balatro: All decks complete on gold stake. All challenges beaten. Absolutely no desire to get all the joker stickers. This era of my life is over (until the update)

Split Fiction sees Hazelight push the co-op adventure genre forward all over again - we spoke to director Josef Fares ahead of its release tomorrow: news.xbox.com/en-us/2025/0...

My friend @disappointment.bsky.social is now BAFTA-nominated. One minute, you're playing Buck Pawchucker, for whom a punch in the face is as good as a kiss on the cheek, and the next you're wearing a big gold suit and being given one million pounds. What a life, what a man.

New episode! It's Monster Hunter Wilds day. Returning guest @2plus2isjoe.bsky.social joins us to share his thoughts on the game, as well as the history of the series. Listen wherever you get podcasts:

Immediately finished recording this episode and went back to play more Monster Hunter

I Think You Should Leave with (Premier League referee) Tim Robinson

Can we wholly rule out that Elon is doing all this stuff simply to destroy the good vibes on Bluesky

Our podcast might be a grotesque experiment, but you cannot deny that we commit to a joke

If you're starting Avowed today, we've got some little, spoiler-free starter tips for you (sadly didn't include my tip that if you don't play with a grimoire and a pistol, you are a coward): news.xbox.com/en-us/2025/0...

BLUE PRINCE. GAME PASS. LET'S GET WEIRD: youtu.be/rKkQ72oHVYA?...

I've been having a very good time with Eternal Strands - it's amazing to see a small studio pull from giant influences, but treat their ideas like a thought experiment. There's so much here that feels like designers having *fun*. news.xbox.com/en-us/2025/0...
