How did 9 developers squeeze a 2-disc, 1.2 GB PlayStation game onto a tiny 64 MB N64 cartridge? 🤯 The engineering behind Resident Evil 2 on N64 was an absolute miracle. Custom compression, exclusive lore, and a $1M budget. Full video break down below: youtu.be/eQ68M1R-1hk

Brief return to say - I was a juror on a @baftagames.bsky.social Games awards panel this year! Best New Intellectual Property to be exact. Loved every second of it. Super honoured and grateful to have been a part of something so impactful within the games industry :)

Excited to stream more in 2026. 2025 was a great first full year and I've learned a ton. Aiming to get into a better rhythm with YouTube uploads, upload more short hardware reviews, and to build on the success gained on Twitch. Here's the schedule for this week 😀

Editors - Looking for a WoW Midnight beta (or beyond) person? I've been playing WoW since closed beta days in 2004 and I've written about it for SO many outlets (including Edge last year which was v cool). Reach out if you need a WoW person! :)

Exciting work news! I'm over at @gamesradarplus.bsky.social writing about how Bravely Default on the Switch 2 is ideal for those JRPG fans short on big chunks of time - www.gamesradar.com/games/rpg/br...

Bravely Default's remaster is secretly the Switch 2's must-play RPG, but it's still flying under the radar

For all the pathetic attempts to "legitimise" this week's Supreme Court decision, this is, at the end of the day, the outcome. It's the outcome of relentless hate and hostility aimed at trans and non-binary individuals. This is why showing support is so important. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

"In the last week, I've had to respond to four suicide attempts or threats from young people," said Oscar Hoyle, who founded the Blossom LGBT community interest group in 2018. "The most significant one, I was on the phone for three hours to a transgender girl, 18 years old. It took three hours for police to come.” Blossom works with about 400 16 to 30-year-olds from across the LGBTQ community to support them into adulthood, and about two-thirds identify as trans or non-binary.

"Regardless of where you sit in this conversation, nobody should be in a position where they feel like life isn't worth living just because they fall within a marginalised group," Hoyle said.

A little announcement. After losing two major retainers due to the uncertain industry, I realised I needed a career break after 15 years of constant hustling and so much poor health. TL;DR of this image alt tag - Throwing myself into streaming/video work. Support would be great!

So, after losing two major retainers and reassessing my life, I'm taking a bit of a career break after 15 years of constant freelance hustling. I'm still working a little on the side but my focus is improving my health (Crohn's is a tough disease to manage!), and also developing my streaming/video skills.

I've cultivated a small but passionate community already, and I'm keen to grow it further. Aka I'm combining 15 years of professionalism with the accessibility of streaming. I'm aiming to review some of my existing tech but more is always good to see (same for games!). If you happen to represent any cool products looking for a cozy bunch of gamers to impress, I have an honest and genuine home for it.

1/4 Randomly remembered the time in Feb 2020 when I was hanging around near shops checking work emails, & a woman in her 40s carrying shopping bags approached me. Asked if I had a moment b/c I looked busy. I assumed she was asking for directions but she told me how she could tell I was a busy person
