11.08.2025 22:30 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0My top 25 games of all time (at this exact moment).
No particular order. No real surprises here I'm sure but I do love some variety. Games like Forza Horizon 5, Mario Galaxy, Resi 7, Assassin's Creed Origins, It Takes Two and Astro Bot could all easily be on this list.
Finally rolled credits on Donkey Kong Bananza. It wore a little thin in the middle there but ended VERY strong. Some post-game to work through but Mafia and Dead Take aren't going to play themselves...

11.08.2025 13:26 โ ๐ 3 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Ah that's a shame. Definitely not one for everyone.
11.08.2025 11:01 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Watched this tonight too. Really enjoyed it. Genuinely creepy, bit silly in a good way, well acted. Hope you enjoyed.

06.08.2025 13:23 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I liked Alan Wake but 2 is just so much better in every way. Such a fantastic game.

30.07.2025 15:38 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Same here. The screen quality is amazing. If you told me it was an OLED screen, given I play the Steam Deck a lot, I wouldn't question it.
27.07.2025 11:13 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I hated using the Switch in handheld, but the only time I play in docked mode with the 2 is when the battery is done but I'm not

25.07.2025 17:32 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Same here, every time I land on a new layer I know I'm there for the foreseeable until I find absolutely everything. Every banana, every fossil, every getaway. And I love it.
23.07.2025 12:05 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Ozzy Osbourne ๐ He went out after one last show, raising an insane amount of money for charity whilst titans of the genre he trailblazed paid tribute to him. Iconic to the end.

22.07.2025 18:10 โ ๐ 4394 ๐ 1489 ๐ฌ 124 ๐ 1015The fact that Donkey Kong Bananza could wind up being my Game of the Year when Clair Obscur and Death Stranding 2 exist is... Mindblowing, but here we are.
22.07.2025 17:18 โ ๐ 3 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Donkey Kong Bananza is the most "fun" I've had in a game since Astro Bot, which itself was the most fun since Mario Odyssey. Pure joy in game form. Exploring, smashing up and collecting everything. Keeping me afloat in a pretty severe depression.
21.07.2025 21:50 โ ๐ 3 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0The sound design is also incredible. Absolutely terrifying stuff.
18.07.2025 04:28 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0There's a trophy for playing without the radio activated. When I did a second playthrough I switched the damn thing off anyway because surprise attacks were WAY less scary than that constant ominous noise๐๐ญ
14.07.2025 13:30 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Labour will listen to ANYBODY about someone's fitness to work except actual doctors. Physiotherapists, occupational therapists and work coaches who don't even know how UC works are all being empowered while doctors are ignored. This country's attitude to disability is fundamentally broken.

12.07.2025 21:45 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Took a day away from rebuilding Australia to return to this absolute gem and take on the new DLC levels. Tough but rewarding end(?) to a masterpiece of a game. Astro Bot, it's been fun. See you in the sequel.

Our vet is pushing for radioactive iodine treatment but I'm not sure she could cope with that at her age, so we're going with meds. I just keep hugging her every time she comes to me.
