So by the time you’re reading this, it’s most likely Easter, a time of Easter egg hunting and the resurrection of Jesus Christ. This dovetails nicely into today's piece on Returnal, a roguelike that’s centred around a time loop where you die and comes back

Resident Evil 4 is my favourite Resident Evil game. If you’ve followed my work over the last few years, you’d no doubt be aware of that. Between the perfect gameplay loop, the absurd goofiness and phenomenal pacing; Resident Evil 4 is the perfect encapsulation of the “video game

The original Dead Space is one of the first games that I remember following the news cycle back when it was in development and, at this point, one of my favourite games. It was released during a time when I was branching out and trying out new things in terms

We’re getting into the thick of the new release season. One of the big ones, the Dead Space remake is coming out next week; Atomic Heart is a few weeks after that, and the Lightfall expansion in Destiny 2 is a week after that. And that’s not even

Well, would you look at the time? It’s the end of the year and 2022 has probably been my biggest year professionally, ever? It has been a big year for laying the foundations of both the future of my work and my own future as well. But it was
