Just called in sick as I feel awful today. Barely able to eat anything and always cold despite being rolled up in like 6 layers of clothing and blankets. So if I’m a bit quiet the coming days, I’m probably sleeping.

It's way too late for me, but I just couldn't stop playing Alan Wake 2. About 6 hours in now. Gonna try to keep it as vague as possible. Started playing the other section now and it's just as creepy, but in a very different way. Love how they tackle two very different psychological horror […]

Just got a notification that my PS5 copy of Baldurs Gate 3 has finally been delivered. Of course this happens 2 days after I’m back at work instead of two weeks ago when my vacation just started… Oh well. Glad to finally have it.

As I've been diving into the Warhammer world this past couple of weeks, I've been looking at the games as well, obviously. This is one that got delisted quite a while ago, but I was able to find a brand new physical copy of it in Germany at least. 😊 #shareyourgames #playstation

Just started Alan Wake 2. Barely a minute in and I nearly threw my controller as my whole body jolted. Off to a good start. 😂

Well, there goes a good part of my Sunday I guess. 😅 I was working on levelling and cropping the pages from Sega Pro 34 - July 1994 (UK), when I noticed the cover has a part of it torn off due to some cover gift which must have been taped on it 3 decades ago […] [Original post on mstdn.games]

As most probably know by now, it's very rare for me to complete games these days as I get distracted by every shiny new, or old thing I see. So not only finishing a game, but actually getting the platinum for one is nearly unheard of. Well, this is my 4th […] [Original post on mstdn.games]

One of my favourite videos I’ve seen in a long time. Not just for the content, but the idea behind it. These are the kinds of games we can get lost in or can escape to when real life gets to be too much. Games that stay with you for the rest of your life and that you know you can go back to […]

There's so many great games in this issue, it took me a while to rename all the pages that I would like to post. But if I did that, it would be well over 60 pages and I would certain be getting complaints. 😅 So I'm gonna try to pick a couple of varied articles […] [Original post on mstdn.games]

No matter what kind of day I’m having, her videos always make me laugh. https://youtu.be/pnF5iiOJux8 #Nintendo

A couple of days ago I noticed that the game was seemingly out of stock everywhere I looked. Then I noticed that the local MediaMarkt still had copies, so I decided I'd better grab one before they start shooting up in price and I'm not sure if this will get a […] [Original post on mstdn.games]
