It's a very specific product for a very specific sort of person - but if that person is you, the Analogue 3D is another total slam dunk. It's excellent. More thoughts: www.eurogamer.net/analogue-3d-...
Analogue 3D review - better late than never, this N64 redux is another best-in-class retro experience
Analogue is back with a new high-end retro console - and this time it's the N64 getting the update treatment. But is it any good?

Doing this completely undermines the legitimacy of videogames imo. You wouldn't have museum staff allowing objects to be displayed haphazardly for public consumption

Xbox ending with what looked like a genuinely interesting original game and it being Call Of Duty: Black Ops 7 is peak comedy to be fair

A thread of every game I completed in 2025.

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom

Overall, a fine game that was hampered by Zelda being the lead character. It just wasn't that fun. Something different for the series, which I appreciate. Art style was superb.

Delighted with first impressions of #AssassinsCreedShadows. I came to this series super late, Odyssey first, but I loved that. Valhalla was next and I've dabbled with Origins and Mirage. Now Shadows looks like its going to build on these gaming experiences, and I'm very pleased with it so far.
