Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time First Impressions (PS5)

Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time is easily my most anticipated game of 2025, and yes I am putting this game ahead of Donkey Kong Bananza and Mario Kart World. I’m excited for those games as well, but if you know anything about me, it’s that I absolutely love a good cozy game. I remember loving Fantasy Life back on the Nintendo 3DS and wasn’t sure if 1) I remembered it wrong and had too much nostalgia that…

Are Games Worth $80? Not a Chance

How much is a game worth to you? I’m not talking a specific game. Not the wishlist, dream game that you’d trade your firstborn for. Just a game. $80? My guess is it isn’t even close. The average gamer isn’t spending anywhere near that much. Maybe a few times a generation or in support of a certain publisher. Perhaps you’ll splurge at Christmas or when a console launches. But those are outliers. Factor in deals, bundles, deep discounts and what…

Grand Theft Auto 4: Lower Your Expectations

Just a few short weeks after we were all bouncing up and down about the Oblivion remaster, a new rumour has sprung up. Rockstar are working on bringing Grand Theft Auto 4 to PlayStation and Switch. That should tell you everything you need to know right there. Skipping Xbox (and PC for now) implies that this is just a straight port, bringing the fourth numbered entry in the legendary franchise to audiences who currently can’t access it. The game is…

More Thoughts From Me: At A Gaming Crossroads

Nintendo Switch 2 will be out soon. And then it won’t be too much longer before the PS6 pops up and Xbox Series is on its way out the door. Lately, I’ve felt that I’m at a crossroads. I’m unsure about where gaming will take me next. So today I’ll talk about what I’m thinking. Will I still be gamer in the future? The Nintendo Switch 2 is coming out in June and…I can’t get it. I can’t afford the…

Grand Theft Auto 6 Might Be Too Good

At a time when the house of cards that is the old games industry looks set to topple, Grand Theft Auto 6 will send standards skyrocketing. On the surface that might seem like a good thing. It isn’t. We saw it with Baldur’s Gate 3. The “why can’t” conversations. Why can’t big publishers do it if a relatively small indie can? Why can’t RPG makers focus on this or that, instead of this or that. When something hits and hits…

GTA6 and the Inevitable Reality of Delays

Rockstar has delayed GTA6. It’s unsurprising. As games continue to get bigger and gaps between titles longer, this is something we’re going to have to learn to live with. It’s nothing new. That once-in-a-generation title you’ve been waiting for has been pushed back again. It doesn’t have to be GTA6. Pick a game you’re looking forward to and there’s a good chance it’ll see some sort of delay. This isn’t a major problem in the grand scheme of things. It’s…

No, Days Gone Doesn’t Need a Rethink

Days Gone was one of my first finishes of 2025, so no surprise they released a remastered version just after. That’s brought up the old conversation about if it’s really a bad game again. Honestly, I expected a poorly scripted, mediocre open world zombie game that only the biggest Sony fan could love. And sure, it’s a diamond in the rough, but you ignore the rough at your peril. Granted, I played it on PC a few years after release.…

Oblivion: What Makes a Good Remaster?

There’s a lot of excitement around the Oblivion remaster, which should be revealed and released this coming week. Put it in your diaries. A lot of the excitement is coming from the improved visuals. Images have leaked from the developer’s website, and mentions of the game have also been found hidden in the Bethesda website too. We talked about the advantages and disadvantages of the shadowdrop earlier in the week, and I’ve been thinking since about the power of nostalgia…

Oblivion and the Shadowdrop

The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion will be getting a remaster announced and released next week. It’s not yet official, but a combination of leakers and images found on the developer’s website have all but confirmed it. The response? “This is awesome, but why aren’t they making us wait for it?!” Xbox are no strangers to a shadow drop. Hi-Fi Rush is the biggest example. Ninja Gaiden 2 got a remake this year. Things will quite regularly appear on Game Pass with…
