Latest Kingdom Come: Deliverance II rage quit - Thought I’d show the town drunk who’s boss after he gave me some lip. Attacked him from behind with a sword.

He absolutely PASTED me with his bare hands.

Instant buy! Been reminiscing about the first #Sims (and expansions) for years without a way to play them 🥹

These games had a massive impact on me… They’re why I put down bags of chips in doorways, shout angrily at the sky when I can’t use said doorway, then wet myself.

Some shots from an amazing month with my fiancée in Australia. We climbed the harbour bridge, watched the New Years’ fireworks from the flight deck of a naval ship, ate incredible food, went to a terrible Shakespeare performance, and saw more bin chickens than you can shake a sausage sizzle at!

Can’t wait for this! To this day I still think the first Mafia has some of the finest pacing from any game.

I’d love to play Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, but unfortunately I’m totally engrossed by my painfully slow career in Flight Simulator 2024.

Need for Speed™ Unbound – Vol. 9: Lockdown - Electronic Arts Ride or die with your crew in Vol. 9: Lockdown - with Lockdown extraction Mode, first ever NFS Motorbikes and NFS 30th Anniversary content.

NFS Unbound’s ‘Lockdown’ mode has launched! It was one of the most challenging features I’ve ever worked on. Not only did we need to find solutions for multiple problems we faced, but they all had to be doable with a small team on a tight schedule. Couldn’t be more proud of the Kaizen team.
