Recently I purchased an e-book entitled Fuck Yeah Video Games "The Life & Extra Lives Of A Professional Nerd by Daniel Hardcastle @DanNerdCubed as I had heard it was a great book.

When I started reading it I wasn't disappointed but for me, the best thing about this book is the lovely illustrations/cartoons by Rebecca Maughan @Mr_RebeccaThey are awesome!

Arthur Parallax reviews….Death Stranding
"I met Hideo Kojima once, well, I say met, I was standing behind him in a chip shop in Burnham-on-Sea called ‘The Battered Husband’ as he ordered fish, chips and mushy peas with loads of vinegar and lashings of brown sauce. Due to his seeming inability to truncate anything combined with how he couldn’t work his way through even a basic sentence without resorting to heavy-handed metaphors relating to existential crises, by the time he had finished reciting his order, his reasons for it and the history behind his reasons for it, the shop had closed and we were ushered hungrily outside. Turning to me, he said that he had never been to Burnham-on-sea before* and asked if I knew of anywhere that would be open that still served food.

🚀 Rocket Wars | REVIEW | Nintendo Switch | "Asteroids 2019" 🚀 #GameDev #IndieGames

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On

Rocket Wars 

Developer Name - Rooftop Panda
Format – Switch 
Price - £10

You are a rocket fighting other rockets. A simple game. I think that it takes inspiration from the 1979 game Asteroids and taking inspiration from a classic is not a bad thing. 

The game sees you flying around like a rocket with simple graphics around an arena type space area.

You use your rocket to destroy other rockets. Fighting against the simulator or against other people in online mode. You can get the chance to fight over different power-ups from lasers to a shotgun burst of bullets.

📺 Was The Games Master TV Show Really As Good As I Remember It? 📺 @GamesMaster

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On
The Games Master TV programme acts as a warm nostalgia blanket of 90s television whenever I think about it.

The thing I have begun to wonder though is, would this fuzzy nostalgic vision of awesomeness be ruined if I were to rewatch these 90s soaked video games tv programmes in 2019?


Was the show really as good as I remember it?

🌳🏚️🌳The 13th Doll | REVIEW | "Dare YOU Return To Stauf’s Mansion?" 🌳🏚️🌳 #GameDev #IndieGame #7thGuest

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On
A fan game based on The 7th Guest - the seminal PC adventure game released in 1993 – 13th Doll is a charming but flawed love letter to the original that has been in development for effectively over a decade and still feels like it could have used a few more months to iron out the more troubling issues.
If you are a fan of the original and yearn for more of the same then this could be a pleasant return to Stauf’s world but if you have no nostalgia for The 7th Guest, this probably isn’t the best place to start.

My expectations for NARCOS: Rise Of The Cartels were low but I was hopeful that the dev team would be able to make something that NARCOS fans could enjoy. 
I’d say that they have surpassed my expectations and made a fun Turn-Based strategy game that although can become a little repetitive at times more than makes up for it in the atmosphere and lovely level design.
