14.02.2026 13:06 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Saw "Wuthering Heights" tonight and came away disappointed. Im not familiar with the source material but Cathy and Heathcliff were insufferable, terrible people and their constant shagging was neither romantic or erotic. I wasn't bored though but I doubt I'd ever watch this again

06.02.2026 07:05 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0It's worth bearing in mind that this game was a ball ache to get running on the PS5. I was Installing, deleting and reinstalling different packs to get the campaign to run. It was quite off putting

30.01.2026 16:01 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Platinum Trophy 194: Call Of Duty Modern Warfare
Im not a huge fan of the series (I don't play much online games) but this retelling was an like an immersive action movie that kept me engaged for chapter to chapter. And despite being released in 2019 the graphics were still superperb.
Platinum Trophy 193:
Dragon Ball FighterZ
After weekly logins for points, I finally unlocked the 20,000,000 zeni points trophy for blistering time of 3 year and 4 months for completion
Platinum Trophy 192: The Beast Within
A fun conspiracy indie horror game that was great until the ending. I like the direction the story implied it was heading before the obvious reveal
Jinjer playing the SWG3 in Glasgow last night. Great to finally see them as a headliner. The crowd went nuts from the get go
28.01.2026 13:08 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Platinum Trophy 191: Oxide Room 104.
An intriguing indie horror game that was ultimately disappointing due to some atrocious voice acting and lack of challenge. At least it was cheap.
Went for a Japanese lunch via Raku in Leith, very filling and comforting
25.01.2026 16:52 β π 7 π 1 π¬ 0 π 0Last night I watched the John Wick spin off; Ballerina.
It did leave me feeling like I'd rather be watching the baba again himself but there was some cool set pieces by the end, particularly the flame thrower battle
Platinum Trophy 190:
In Sound Mind
A fun wee indie game about delving into the troubled psyche of a therapists patients. Reminds me a little of pyschonaughts
Accepted a new job today and now I'm heading to Glasgow for my 1st gig of 2026. Definitely gonna be suffering tomorrow π
21.01.2026 12:52 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Platinum Trophy 189: Forgive Me Father
A frantic HP Lovecraft inspired boomer shooter with a comic strip aesthetic. Quite fast and fun gameplay that can get overwhelming at times.
Platinum Trophy 188: Daymare 1998
A loving tribute to resident evil (particularly 2) but quite rough round the edges. I ended up playing through this 4 times due to various glitches, thankfully its a short game.
Made a wee croque madame for brunch today, never managed to have one in Paris so hopefully it had an authentic taste
18.01.2026 12:29 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Just back home atmdter catching Marty Supreme at the cinema. I went in knowing that it's about ping pong and has a buzz about it. Didn't expect 2 hours of absolute chaos.
17.01.2026 23:32 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0A new Kreator album (and a new Hellripper single) out today, makes me happy π
16.01.2026 16:39 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Watched The Life Of Chuck, and expected to be emotionally wrought by the end if it. But it left me feeling nothing...
I enjoyed the initial scenario up of the world ending and also got a kick out of spotting the horror alumni cast
First Platinum Trophy of 2026: Gravity Rush Remastered.
Decided to do a little clean up and finished a game I started 8 years ago but never picked up again
Watching BBC's The Traitors and the 'secret' traitor gimmick has already been discarded after 3 episodes, makes me wonder why bother with it at all
07.01.2026 21:11 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Back home from Paris to celebrate the new year.
It was nice to see it again in a festive coat despite the chill.
Platinum Trophy 186 (and the last of 2025) via Alisa on the PS5.
A fun & modern love letter to early survival horror games
Now watching a new Korean film The Great Flood, going in completely blind.
Let's just say that 40 mins in, it felt like it was getting close to finishing depsite having an hour left to go. Then the plot takes a really unexpected turn
Got myself an early Xmas pressie with tickets to see Creeper at the Cat House next year π
