Something I used to do on X for years was maintain a thread of one tweet reviews of every game I play, usually to completion. It's time to bring it retrospectively to BlueSky as well. So without further ado...

GamePass has been great for our wallets. But perhaps it’s time we changed our habits?
OPINION: Microsoft layoffs and Xbox Game Pass has me re-evaluating my position as a consumer.
OPINION: Maybe it’s time for us all to start paying for our games again.

Amorim will be a poor appointment from Man United. Not because he himself is poor, but the fit was wrong from the start in terms of systems and players available to play it. Why do clubs chase pipe dreams of ‘3-4-3 inverted wingers’ when they’ve not built squads to play that way?

I'll be honest, if Simu Liu can bring us a Sleeping Dogs film/series and a sequel to the game. Then i'll revise my initial thoughts about him.

You have to worry for Bioware now. Mass Effect feels like its last roll of the dice, and considering they haven’t made a cultural hit for nearly 13 years it seems unlikely one is coming any time soon.

The downside of being able to WFH is that when everything shuts you can still spend a hurricane strength storm editing through 2000+ photos from a shoot the day before.

I sort of feel off BlueSky a bit after a while, it's hard to change habits. But every day I'm reminded of why I shouldn't use X. I will definitely need to make a concerted effort to try and use this platform instead. At least its owner hasn't Nazi Saluted on national television.

Just realised I’m watching Drew Lock vs Cooper Rush at 11:30 on a Thursday night and just questioned my entire life.

Daniel Jones to the Vikings seems entirely pointless for everyone involved.

And just like that he throws it in my face.
Honestly? The fact Levis has been sacked 7 times and we're winning still is nothing short of a miracle and a reminder of how awful his offensive line has been since he turned up. He's made mistakes for sure but there's still life in him and we're seeing that this month.

Tennessee Titans lasting 18 seconds. Well done boys!

There is an unhealthy obsession with using play out from the back tactics in the Premiership. I’m certain now it’s for the managers benefit only now after seeing Kompany get the Bayern job.
Southampton have committed more errors leading to an opposition goal (7) than any other team in the Premier League this season. 🥴

The Scottish Football double header tonight is a chefs kiss moment for enjoying the plight of the Saturday 3pm loyalists. The tide will turn and we will win.

Can't lie, this feels like quite a great match up to watch. Kinda gutted it's on a Thursday night instead of a Sunday game for me in the UK.
🚨 WEEK 16 SCHEDULE FLEX 🚨
Broncos vs. Chargers will now be played on Thursday Night Football on Prime Video.
Browns vs. Bengals will move to Sunday at 1pm ET on FOX.

This is quite a wildly developed situation over the course of about 3 days. I'm honestly not sure that both parties have come out of this in a better position than they were in. So many questions, especially in regards to money, that need answered.
BREAKING: The #Giants are releasing QB Daniel Jones, per Jordan Schultz .Jones asked to be released and his wish was granted after he was benched.

The new streaming functions on PlayStation Portal has definitely made me reconsider it heavily i must admit

For me, SotE shouldn’t be nominated. I love that they did it and more studios should do big expansions this way. But you can’t award something GOTY when you need to buy and beat a full priced 100 hour game to even consider playing it.

I’m not saying Will Levis will turn into the franchise QB for years to come. But these last two games have shown signs of life in him.
