Built a proper Barbie PC for a customer today! Really happy with how it turned out.

P U M P E D for Monster Hunter Wilds on Friday! Can't wait to watch/read all the reviews today and get stuck in over the weekend.

Selene Returnal

Losing both grandads in the space of 4 months, in the middle of an ongoing mental health struggle, is not something I feel equipped to handle tbh. My kingdom for a crumb of positivity.

Returnal is still my most treasured platinum trophy, maybe I should re-buy it on Steam...

State of play? More like state of me as I pray for bloodborne like a filthy wretch. I will also accept Demon's Souls on PC and a new God of War game, thank you

Playing The Invincible tonight! Not my usual cup of tea, but what an engrossing and absolutely gorgeous game.

A thread of all the games and DLC I beat in 2025, with a short review and star rating out of 5. GGApp list: ggapp.io/MaxLWright/l...

Experimenting with a subwoofer as part of my setup. Let's see if I notice the benefits in games?

Catching up on the Xbox Partner Direct: - Doom: The Dark Ages has filled me with the strong desire to rip & tear until it is done, incredible - Ninja Gaiden 4 made by Platinum Games, huge surprise, looks like it has a mix of Metal Gear Rising and Vanquish elements. That's a day one purchase.

So I 100% completed the collection in Balatro twice in one year (PC and mobile). Finally, I can rest. @localthunk.bsky.social once again, incredible work.

After just under 2 hours, I have refunded Hyper Light Breaker. While it looks incredible from the trailers, the game feels bare bones and frustrating. Looking at the reviews on Steam, I'm not alone! Maybe I'll try again a bit deeper into Early Access.

We've teamed up with dbrand to giveaway three Killswitch cases. Want one for your handheld of choice? Here's what to do: ✨ Follow @overkill.wtf. 🔁 Repost this post. We will pick three winners next week. Open worldwide. Good luck! ✌️

I got an OLED monitor so...Batman Arkham Knight

I beat Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown's Mask of Darkness DLC today! Really challenging, I liked how it strips you of your powers and forces you to engage with the new mechanics. I wish there were more than 2 boss fights though. I can't believe this game/series is done for. What a waste!

Lots of massive games for me this year. Metroid Prime 4 Beyond, Xenoblade Chronicles X HD, Monster Hunter Wilds, Elden Ring Nightreign, 1.0 of Hades 2 & No Rest for the Wicked, and the early access launch of Hyper Light Breaker. Plus Switch 2. And that's just what we already know about. Christ.

Today is a VERY good day

I accidentally got chubby again

Follow @wario64.bsky.social and repost for a chance to win 1 of 8 Steam codes for Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered (courtesy of @aspyr.com). Giveaway ends December 15th, 6 PM PT. Game is available now on Steam and consoles store.steampowered.com/app/2521380/...

Seen a few people say that Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet's trailer was full of "product placement"? I disagree massively. The Alien franchise has Reebok shoes in it. Back to the Future has future versions of Pepsi and Nike products. It's not product placement, it's worldbuilding.
