Football (soccer for our American readers), cricket, tennis, rugby…all popular sports here in the UK, and all of them have zero appeal to me. For almost 40 years now I’ve much preferred American sports. Give me American Football, Baseball, Basketball, Ice Hockey, et al, both as a spectator sport and as a sports based video […]
Blending genres in video games is a really tricky thing to pull off. Add too many different types of gameplay and you end up being a jack of all trades and master of none. But do it just right, and you can create a really compelling game like Lair of the Clockwork God, which mixes […]
2020 has been an incredible year for gamers of a certain vintage. Firstly, we had the amazing Streets of Rage 4 which was the ultimate tribute fans of the series (including me) had been waiting for. Just when I thought things couldn’t get any better, along comes a love letter to Sega arcade racing games […]
Every now and then you play a game and realise you’ve just experienced something totally unique. As a gamer of nearly 40 years, this doesn’t happen very often so when it does, you have to savour the moment. I had one of those moments playing BPM: Bullets Per Minutes, so let me tell you why. […]

With that out of the way, let’s get onto the review. Peaky Blinders: Mastermind is a strategy game set across 10 levels, where you control a variety of characters to […]
A few years ago, I was complaining to someone about how bad the controls were when I was playing a videogame. I can’t remember the exact game, but that doesn’t really matter. The person I was chatting to said, “go and play QWOP and then complain about controls.” Seeing this as a personal challenge, I […]
Long gone are the days where I used to play golf, but thankfully my even longer history with playing golf in video games continues, and the latest game to have me putting (no pun intended) on my virtual plus fours and hitting the greens (or missing them entirely!) is PGA Tour 2K21, built upon the […]
