👉 In case you missed it, I've been testing the limits of Xcode 26.3's agentic programming support this week, using Codex. I've built a bunch of functional apps with it, ported an ObjC app to Swift, and then ported that Swift app in its entirety to Android […]

The Banjo-Kazooie reconciliation is _soooo_ good.
Seeing it running at high resolution, widescreen, at 90 FPS sure beats emulating it. Having proper camera controls too. I never finished this game in the past. I think it’s time.

When you walk in a room Leia will often roll over for a good belly rub.

I can easily say that “Thank Goodness You’re Here!” Is my game of the year.

No questions. I’m a man of simple taste, and I like short games. 90 minutes of madness and charm.

You can love it or you can hate it, but change is coming, and fast.

When someone is hiring for a job and the choice is between someone who can add 4 features in 1 week or someone that can add 1 feature in 4 weeks, rightly or wrongly […]

Started the “new” Tomb Raider trilogy today on Steam Deck. Runs a great at 90 FPS, but not a fan of the quick time events.

I’m streaming on the SteamDeck, so screen size is smaller than it should be, but I wish the Switch 2 was OLED. Look at the color difference.

I know it’s old, but my god, how great is the Steam Deck. I literally love this thing.

Sold my first one and bought an OLED much later. It’s perfect.

Finished Elechead on the Steam Deck whilst on holiday. I get back on the 25th, ready for Gears of War: Reloaded on the 26th.

Today is the first paid holiday I have taken for 24 years.

It feels glorious.

Been contracting since 2001, first full time job started Monday last week, and now a weeks paid leave. 🎉

Need to send a print off before I go on holiday, thankfully the HD2 is super fast and super reliable.

Just Cause 3 is up there as one of my favourite games. The first untried in the series. I tried 4 and hated it.

Just bought Just Cause 2 on the Deck for 99 pence and it looks amazing for the age. I think the smaller screen hides a lot. Runs at a solid 90 fps too.

I can’t wait to play it on […]

I haven’t filed a radar, so shouldn’t complain… but ifbyiubusebyiur phone to play ambient sounds, half a second before your alarm goes off the phone goes to full volume. It means I get a massive burt of rain or thunder sound at max volume before my nice, peaceful wake up alarm goes off. It’s […]

Finished Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound. Had to reduce the damage taken at the end as it becomes really punishing, but it’s an absolutely brilliant game.

Rolled credits on The Midnight Walk. A beautiful VR (and flat) game that really makes you appreciate what a video game can be.

Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound is bloody fantastic, and a perfect Steam Deck or Switch game. Love it.
