During his time at Invision he has reviewed a large number of games and peripherals, attended 2021's digital E3 conference and served as a judge in the 2022 Crunchyroll Anime Awards.

Cosmic DJ Preview

Cosmic DJ is a strange title. On the surface it looks like a generic music-based game in a same strand as Rock Band or Guitar Hero, but those initial feelings are completely misleading. In fact, I’m not even sure how…

Nether Preview

Nether is not a typical survival game. Well, it is, but not in the ways you expect. Whenever an idea is a runaway success, it’s inevitable that others will try to emulate it in some way, shape or form. Until…

The Lego Movie Videogame Review

How many LEGO games have we had now? Of course, I mean the ones made by TT Games. By my counting, The Lego Movie Videogame is the fifteenth, and whilst there have been ups and downs along the way they’re…
