I've been taking some time with The Blood of Dawnwalker since our stream last week, with enough sunk in to it to bring you my review and common-sense parent's guide.

The Blood of Dawnwalker Review + Common Sense Parent's Guide
The Blood of Dawnwalker – despite having a slightly clunky sounding name – might be one of the best vampire games I’ve played

For the clever retro gamers who got it, well done! This week's Guess The Game was indeed Fear Effect on PlayStation - Not a coincidence that I'm live streaming this on Sunday on Twitch on original hardware - come join me!

A little indie game with BIG heart and one I'm really proud to have been a part of. We just launched on Switch and I thought I'd share the trailer here, too.

A cute little pixel art / manga fusion, hand made by ONE GUY (not me) using RPG Maker.

A personal question but, which is your favourite Tomb Raider and WHY is it Tomb Raider II?

Hands down one of the best franchises ever created IMO.

Do you ever feel like you're living in a season of the Truman Show where ratings are dropping and the producers are just trying to **** with you to get a reaction.

RETRO GAME COVER QUIZ! I was trying to take a nice photo and the gorram Atari Organiser got in the way. Can any retro gamer remind me what this game is?!

Two kinds of people. Snuggled up with handhelds.

Me getting close to completing Alan Wake. My wife dating every household appliance you can think of.

What a time to be alive. Night night, folks.

When you beat a boss that you've been trying (and failing) to beat for over NINE HOURS...

The two faces of "I just completed Silent Bomber". Genuine shock. Genuine joy.

This has been SUCH a hard one to complete and thank you for all who've come along for the ride - especially in the last few "last boss" streams.

My work soundtrack today is dedicated to anybody that was (previously) unaware that Bruce Willis released a blues/pop fusion album in the late 80s
