At long last, I've played The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past! I had been toying with the idea all year but the announcement of the Ocarina of Time remake sealed the deal. It was, arguably, the last ‘big’ Zelda game I was missing and you can read all about my thoughts in this week's review.

In anticipation of the GOY DLC coming next week, I want to not only boost my review of the game but also tell a little anecdote. When this review dropped it got 'restricted' by a Google Bot. The reason? It thought a screenshot (2nd one) depicted graphic violence. 1/2

I saw the statement from Kojima Productions today — it doesn’t dispute any of our reporting so I don’t have much to add there. But I will add that (as I said a couple weeks ago), the Physint cancellation came after several months of negotiations between KoPro and Sony. Wasn’t exactly out of nowhere

In a week we got 2 back-to-back big new game releases I'm being my usual weird self by reviewing a nearly 20 year old DS game instead. The Legend of Spyro Dawn of the Dragon is a childhood favourite of mine has it stood the test of time? Was it a good game to begin with? Read my review to find out.

The MVP of that this week's Nintendo Direct was handsdown Metroid Ravenous for me. It's looks like a really cool game that doubles down on Dread's ending twist to invigorate the gameplay. Because of this it seemed very appropriate that this week, I'd give a boost to my Metroid Dread review!

This week I've got an Indie game up for review. Coming straight to you from Iceland's Myrkur Games is a fantasy action-adventure game that takes a lot of inspiration from titles such as God of War & Tomb Raider to create a fun, if a bit unpolished, title. Give it a read if you want to know more!

GamesCom is still going at my neighbours in Germany. From all the new & goodies that have trickled out, none have been as exciting to me as those about The Witcher 3; its remaster & expansion. As such, I think taking a look back at my first experience with it is a most fitting repost for the week.

The downside of getting back into Lego? Getting ideas that you don't have the money nor time for to execute, yet are so frustratingly tempting.😫 I've never been into 'scary' things but I can't help but imagine a diorama built with the sets (& 1 moc) below & writing an accompanying short story.

A lot have already been said about Metroid Prime 4 Beyond, which is why it took me this long to actually play it, but that extra time gave me more perspective that really explains why this is a well-made, but very flawed, title. Do give my review a read if you want to know why I think that.

F.T. Wolf @ftwolf4.bsky.social · 19/08/2026

Let's focus on the good: a more traditional co-op game with a story mode that can also be played singleplayer is a lot more my speed than a 'live-service, always online multiplayer game'. IF this doesn't get canned, and if the price is right, I might actually pick it up.

Sometimes, I feel that choosing 'fantasy' as the genre of my first attempt at writing an actual book is, I perhaps set the bar a little too high. Case & point: in the last two week I've been busier with coming up with a multilayerd burial ceremony for 1 single chapter instead of 'actual' writing.😅

Got a new logo! The old one was over 5 years and old and very rough in a lot of ways. This not only smooths out all those imperfections but is rounder in general. More friendly, better fitting for me as a person. The logo is part of a slight branding upgrade that will roll out in the coming days.
