This was the Absolum run that showed the end credits. At this point I was 7 hours in and had knocked the assist controls up to make it easy. Did the true ending after with full cheat mode on! I'd kind of lost patience at this point, not really built for roguelikes. Georgeous game though #pileofshame

This is one of the endings of Rogue Flight. A very pretty Star Fox-esque shooter that was one of my first PS5 Pro enhanced games. Wish you could disable haptics, my finger trigger is killing me! #pileofshame

Just watched the trailer for the film version of 'The Exit 8' after finishing the game as I'm intrigued how they will turn such a short game into a film. But maybe it could just work #pileofshame

A Little To The Left - one of those tidying up games that stress me out a bit to be honest. Knocked out the campaign in one evening, fine for one of those games with my PSN subscription #pileofshame

To all of those wondering why I'm hesitant about grabbing new warhammer kits.
This is why.
It's not a pile of shame.
It's an infestation of insecurity.

Cronos: The New Dawn - one of those solid 7/8 out of 10 games. Looks good, nice and creepy with very cool sound. But, the story confused me a bit and it's got a really pointless melee attack: why have punch and stomp buttons if they don't really work against enemies? Anyway, decent game #pileofshame

I assembled and primed these old #aeldari Guardians probably a decade ago and I just this month got around to finish painting them. One small victory over my #pileofshame. #iyanden #eldar #craftworlds #spaceelves #Warhammer40k #paintingwarhammer #warhammercommunity #warcom #40k #paintingminiatures

So, I've obviously finished Breath Of The Wild before on the OG Switch (it would be a crime not to) but it's truly glorious on the Switch 2. Did the full master sword trials this time but skipped 100%-ing the whole game and expansion - will save that for Tears Of The Kingdom :-) #pileofshame

Ball X Pit, is a weird game - you think it's Arkanoid, then quickly realise its more like Vampire Survivors, the it throws in a weird Peggle/Jigsaw Puzzle City building thing, and finally it turns into Cookie Clicker. Anyway, played it all the way to the proper ending! #pileofshame

Knocked out Herdling in one sitting - which is always a good sign. Really nice music, if I'm being picky I wish the frame rate was a bit more consistant #pileofshame

I have memories of playing MGS3 but not liking it much, I can't remember getting out of the jungle to be honest. However Metal Gear Solid Delta got decent reviews so I thought I'd give it another go. It's completely insane! Looks great, mad bosses, feels comfortably retro. It was fun #pileofshame

A quick palette chaser of a game: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge. The nostalgia factor is high with this one! Fun for an afternoon #pileofshame
