One Year On: Bethesda and Microsoft

It’s probably one of the biggest announcements the gaming industry has ever seen. Microsoft had bought Bethesda, and the full impact of that announcement still hasn’t been felt.

Xbox Acquisition Rumours Return (….again)

It’s been five minutes so, of course, it’s time to start talking about who Microsoft are going to be buying this week. Acquisition season never ends.

Then Farming Simulator got multiplayer, and this year, we are getting crossplay as well! Let's take a peak!

If you’re not into Halo or Forza, you better get into them…

Ghost of Tsushima Directors Cut – Iki Island

I've been making my way through Ghost of Tsushima on the PlayStation 5, although my time with the game was interrupted by an unfortunately placed week long camping trip! Still, from start to finish, the Directors Cut of Ghost of Tsushima has been one of my favourite gaming adventures in 2021 - not only does the game look and feel phenomenal on Sony's next generation console, but all the additional DLC, including Iki Island, blew me away.

Thankfully, Ubisoft has done a fantastic job of supporting the game post launch with tons of DLC, the most recent being the Siege of Paris.
