Christmas is nearly here and that means nostalgia. In gaming terms, that means endless pictures of 90s kids and their latest consoles – the Mega Drive or SNES. Probably while wearing Sonic the Hedgehog pyjamas. But it can also mean revisiting your old faves, and that’s exactly what me and Mrs G are up to. Along with our never ending battle with Crash 2, we’ve also decided to do a sweep of the Sonic franchise – from humble beginnings in…

Read MoreCan Grow: Song of the Evertree Overcome a Slow Start – Yes it Can
With limited time to play and review games, there are a number of things that can make me put down a review build of a title and walk away. One of those things is when a game just cannot seem to get out of it's own way and let players...play! And that was almost the case with Grow: Song of the Evertree, and if it wasn't for my love of these style of games - Hello Harvest Moon and Story of Seasons! - I probably would have quit within the first 2 hours. Fortunately for me, I didn't!

Read MoreThe GTA Trilogy Shows Publishers Are Too Cocky
When I wrote that the GTA Trilogy collection had best be good, because even Rockstar only gets one chance to majorly screw up, I worried I might be being overly sensitive. This is Rockstar we’re talking about, they’re not going to release a game that has the lowest Metacritic user score of all time. Yes, Grand Theft Auto 6 will now only sell 100 million copies instead of 155 million. Or, more likely, we’ll all be taken in by the…
Read MoreAirborne Kingdom is a City Building Gem
When it comes to city builders on consoles, the results are generally poor. Even if the game is rock solid, the controls don't often translate well to controllers. These are games primarily built for a mouse and keyboard. Yet somehow Airborne Kingdom deals with those issues with ease, and provides a fantastic experience that is a must play for any city building fan.

Read MoreThe GTA Trilogy Remaster is Just Wrong – And I Want It
Re-releasing Grand Theft Auto 3, Vice City and San Andreas with only a handful of improvements is ridiculous. It’s lazy. It’s outrageous. But the GTA Trilogy Remaster is something I’m totally down for. Here’s the problem: these three games are incredibly good. More than that, they ooze nostalgia. To play them with improved controls and graphics will restore them back to the level I thought they were back in the early noughties. Believe me, I know that releasing the GTA…

Read MoreYouTubers Life 2 a Relaxing Experience – Nothing Like Real Life and That’s Great!
YouTubers Life 2 is now available on Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch, and while the game is far from accurate when it comes to showing what life as a YouTuber is like, the relaxing experience is making it one of my favourite games I've played on my Nintendo Switch in a long while. As someone who isn't into the Metroid craze, having access to this game right now is a god-send!
