Re. RPS freelance, I now have a budget for irregular (maybe 6-12 pieces a year) 2000-3000 wordish, more granular and specific reporting and investigative criticism that broaches a new topic or addresses a gap in knowledge regarding something familiar.

Dayana Sengleeva I’m taking part in a Wellness Walk, raising money for Diabetes UK. Please help me reach my fundraising goal.

I'm doing a 10 mile charity walk this month with the missus. Help us tell diabetes to fuck off! fundraise.diabetes.org.uk/fundraisers/...

I would prefer to forget that games exist

Dying Light is sorted as well. Thanks again to everyone who got in touch (or signal boosted)

Faaaaaanks Chris.

Sorted for Borderlands and Silent Hill, thanks all!

We're shortstaffed on RPS and need some rad PC-minded freelancers for urgent review work. Specifically:
- Borderlands 4 (yes I know it's out already)
- Dying Light: The Beast
- Silent Hill f

Standard rate is £200 GBP per review, make yourselves known at james.archer@rockpapershotgun.com

A massive fire broke out at Westfield Stratford, slightly improving it

My Silksong review is up. It's a bit like that bit in Anchorman where Vince Vaughn threatens Will Ferrell's life then immediately kisses him on the face

I'm looking to commission a freelancer with knowledge of the Russian games industry and preferably some ability to read/speak Russian. If that's you, my email is in my bio: www.rockpapershotgun.com/authors/edwi...

No apology necessary, Terry - I appreciate it's a difficult subject (maybe the *most* difficult!)

I'd be interested to hear what your plans are, once they're settled? I'm at james.archer@rockpapershotgun.com.

Am in Hunter's March and turns out I may do that last part anyway

I've only known Sherma for 35 minutes, but if anything happens to her I'll kill everyone in Pharloom and then myself

Great work by Nic and Edwin here.

The queue for Denshattack needs studying as some kind of anthropological anomaly. Never moves yet never grows. A perfectly preserved line of nerds, held in stasis

Woken up on Gamescom morning with a slight twinge in my writing wrist. Nicht gut

Mine was an ice hockey family, so I'm obligated to suggest The Mighty Ducks

Potted so many fuckin plants today, heh heh heh heh heh

Part of why RPS hardware coverage keeps the techy stuff relatively simple is because trying to compete with DF on depth would be hopeless. Good luck lads

Get well soon Alice!

Wheel World (2025)

I've been made aware that Mouthwashing hasn't been findable through itch's search since October 2024 as we did not meet their listing criteria. After seeing comments left just a few weeks ago I incorrectly made the assumption that the game has been delisted as part of the recent de-listings of NSFW games from the platform. I apologize to itch.io and to people who feel like they've been lied to. I made an incorrect assumption.

I want to issue a corrective statement as my post about mouthwashings delisting turned out to be false. I'm sorry for making an incorrect assumption

Read it and weep. I know I am www.rockpapershotgun.com/the-sunday-p...

Not usually a ceramics guy but had to buy this, it's my two favourite things

Biffy gig no.9 (I think) in the books, this one conveniently located next to its own rainforest

Say the line, Linkin Park

This wouldn't be important to anyone else at the best of times, but I got over my fear of swallowing pills this week, and I dunno it's nice to have a little bit of character development

Love my bestie x
