MD, Yogscast Games / co-presenter One Life Left / awesome.
Finished it in 11 seconds mate.

That's probably the best in the world, but it's not my job to check.

Best of luck, Korina - sorry to hear about Neonhive, but hope the new gigs work out. Lemme know if I/we can help at all.

Looking forward to Guildford Games Festival next Friday 20th Feb.

I'm on the opening panel so please do come along if you want to see some top experts and me reveal exactly 'What is going to happen in the games industry in 2026'.

OMFG John Robins said he loves you. I do hope that's your new ringtone.

Excited to get my hands on this.
Okay, phew. It's out, go buy it please and have fun.

I really like the fun the Grey Alien team are having with this. Looking forward to checking out the demo.
A public demo of the banned 1995 CD-ROM β€˜Forbidden Solitaire’ is being leaked TOMORROW on #Steam.

Authorities advise gamers to exercise extreme caution. Campaign groups, such as β€˜Justice for Timmy,’ go further: urging players to delete all traces of the software if they are tempted to install it.

Rhell is ridiculously good fun. Looking forward to seeing these very professional gamers tackle it.

You too can join the fun - updated demo available here: store.steampowered.com/app/3833720/...

Just finished Assassin's Creed Shadows about four hours after I thought I'd finished Assassin's Creed Shadows.

Took a while to get going and a while to end but very enjoyable once I'd levelled up a bit.

Excellent on Switch 2 fyi.

Some of it here: www.thegamebusiness.com/p/digital-fo.... I don't think I mentioned when James Dean Bradfield accused me of 'denegrating his art' with Guitar Hero, or the time people thought we'd desecrated Jimi Hendrix's grave (we hadn't; we put coloured buttons on his statue at the Isle of Wight).
A community game led to the reformation of Guitar Hero publisher RedOctane
We speak to the new RedOctane, and Green Man Gaming takes on Humble Bundle

Oh the stories I could have told.
Finally, it's here! The Oral History of Guitar Hero, Rock Band and the Music Game Boom from @metallicaisrad.bsky.social and @readonlymemory.com, this means a lot to me because GH and RB are the games that would eventually inspire me to become a game developer myself.

Nothing more traditional in January than QPR fans concentrating on the league.
January 11, 2026 at 5:21 PM
Of course, Maraoke fans are well versed in their Sega history already, thanks to Joel's incredible 'Hey Ya' re-write.

Was at the darts yesterday. Amazing fun obviously. But one of the many things you don't get from TV is how the room _smells_. 10/10 would darts again.
