Howdy! 24 years old, graduated from Sunderland University in 2011 with a degree in TV and Radio Production, and to get it I just had to present and produce radio shows and write scripts. I did really well, I went to New York to pick up a swanky international award, but still I'm trapped in my hometown yet to start my career, but it's not all bad really, I'm getting married in the near future so that's pretty awesome :) Working at the moment as a kid's activity and sport coach at a top Gym & Spa complex. As well as having a great joy in playing video games, I am also a huge wrestling nut, even went to New Orleans for Wrestlemania 30, I even bumped into Rob Van Dam and Hacksaw Jim Duggen on Bourbon Street coming out of a Gentleman's Club together, what a weekend! Also if anyone lives in the North West, make sure you head to Preston once a month, PCW is the greatest wrestling promotion in the UK! Finally, I'm an aspiring children's author! Currently I have penned 12 original poems and 3 original stories and I hope to have the first of many books published soon, watch this space! Favourite game of all time: Dragon Quest VIII - Journey Of The Cursed King (PS2, 2006)

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition Review

In my honest opinion, I believe the reason why there aren’t any new, successful, original IPs is that gamers won’t let go of the past.  Sure it’s nice to member our favourite titles from previous generations, but why must we…

Pillars of Eternity Complete Edition Review

It has been a long time coming but we have finally got Pillars of Eternity on the Nintendo Switch not only that, I may have finally landed my dream job and married my soulmate.  As awesome as my wife is,…

Wasteland 2: Directors Cut Review (Nintendo Switch)

Upon clicking on this article, if your first thoughts were “I don’t remember the first Wasteland game”, “Hold on just one second, a director’s cut?” or “JOHN CENA!!!” (you cannot escape the Cena-memes) then trust me, you’re not the only…

MXGP Pro Review

Considering that the only form of sport I follow is wrestling, I’m extremely limited in how I can experience “faithful” and “realistic” achievements in sporting games.  Lifelike ultra responsive gear changes in F1? I barely know what a gear is. …

City of Brass Review

Requesting to review a game without knowing anything about it can sometimes be just as exciting as requesting one you’ve extensively researched.  When I heard that some former Bioshock developers had come together to create a brand new first person,…

Little Nightmares Complete Edition Review

Little Nightmares is a puzzle-platformer horror game developed by Tarsier Studios, a Swedish crew of creative boffins responsible for the likes of LittleBigPlanet for the Playstation Vita and Tearaway Unfolded, and available now on Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4 and Xbox…

Onrush Preview

I’m a right fussy bugger when it comes to playing racing games, however, when someone promises a “new breed of high-impact, adrenaline fuelled, off-road arcade racing” it’s difficult to not at least be a little interested.  Ever since Burnout Paradise…

The Council – Episode 2: Hide and Seek Review

I must admit I was pleasantly surprised upon completing the first chapter of The Council.  I may have been hooked from the game’s intriguing synopsis, but the unique RPG elements mixed within the well-written characters filled me with a tremendous…

Assassins Creed Origins: The Curse of the Pharaohs Review

After the epic events closing the main game and the highly satisfying epilogue from The Hidden Ones, you’re not alone in doubting what more could Assassins Creed Origins deliver.  Mere minutes have passed since Bayek & Amunet have resolved the…

Assassins Creed Origins: The Hidden Ones Review

Even though I have spent 50+ hours traipsing through the brutal Egyptian landscape already, it was great to have an excuse to return to the sand.  6 months have passed since Bayek and Aya’s epic conclusion soared Origins to new…
