You know when you’re about to fall asleep but get jolted awake by a half-dream? I’ve been playing a lot of Ghost of Yotei and woke up to my shoulder twitching as I was imagining throwing weapon at someone.

I was on the way back from work mindlessly playing this game called Sand Blast while I happened to be listening to Lorn. Realised I basically just re-created Tetris Effect.

Help every time I hear the word “book” and “metal” now I hear it in the voice of that parrot on YouTube.

This is a video essay I made about the existential experience of finding characters of me and my friends 20 years ago on a Playstation 2 game.

As someone who; a) is a video game lover and b) loves talking about video games… I unsubscribed from the games subreddit a while back and it honestly feels good.

I have released a Cyberpunk 2077 themed TikTok and had fun creating what is probably my most out of pocket thumbnail so far. vm.tiktok.com/ZNdmkhjx8/

Trying to re-edit some of my YouTube videos for TikTok, but without being someone who consumes TikTok. It is confusing. I don't understand TikTok. I feel old.

I go through similar cycles when making video game "video essays" (I'm still not sold on calling them that) but releasing them is particularly daunting, the algorithm being what it is. Here's my latest one about the Mass Effect 3 endings. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEsk...

Despite my dislike of Ubisoft and all the comments I have gotten in response for praising it... I still think Star Wars: Outlaws is just fucking beautiful. Maybe it's the sci-fi lover in me, but depictions of scenery like this are a cheat code to get my brain to think of something favourably.

On the vanishingly few occasions I go onto Twitter now I find myself blocking/muting a large majority of people I see replying to any popular post. It’s honestly a waste of time clicking on any gaming news because the top replies are full of those ghouls.

This is basically like getting a play button.

When I play Indiana Jones and the Great Circle it just gives me hope that one day someone will make a first person faithful Star Trek game in the same vein.

I want footage from a game for a video I'm making, but need to no clip out of bounds. The game is obscure so no such mod exists, so I've been trying to decompile the games files, modify the code and pack it again. Is this a constructive use of my time? (The answer is no)

It feels weird to say this as someone who loves talking about and hearing other people talk about games - but I’m kind of over a lot of online communities that just constantly ravage games. If I’m not interested in something, I simply don’t engage with it and have no interest in talking about it.

Horses on YouTube is a wonderful example of simple yet impossibly magnetic title/thumbnail combo.

People who get angry over the arbitrary numbers assigned to games in reviews by others are just like… what are you doing?

Has anybody ever wondered what a Pokemon movie inspired by Logan would look like where Ash Ketchum is a grizzled old man? Just me?

“These 2 games were made x years apart” videos being recommended to me on YouTube are my newest peeve.

No British television chef has ever had more aura than Ainsley Harriott. Yes, that’s includes Gordon Ramsey.

Trying to figure out how to use Tik Tok is one of those "I feel old" moments.

God of War was on sale on Steam, so I will now play a God of War game for the first time ever. You may vent your disgust and disbelief below.

Here is my latest YouTube video where I talk about Cyberpunk 2077 again, on account of me not being able to stop thinking about it.

With the future of Blade Runner 2033: Labriynth unclear, it's worth looking back on The Confusing History of Blade Runner Video Games. (that's conveniently the name of the video)

I don’t really know about how I feel about the term”video essay”, but after years of making videos I have started to make videos where I talk about video games. Here is a link and shameless promotion for one.
