Decided on my Backlog Beats games for 2026. Earthbound has been one of those "I'm gonna play this game one day" for like, 15+ years.

Excited for a new Fable and this looks great. Glad they kept the concepts and humour of the original games (Fable II is one of my favourite 360 games). Let's go.
Fable launches on Xbox/PS5/PC in Autumn 2026

▪️Focus on choices, action, drama, British humor, seamless open world
▪️Begin as a child, growing up in Briar Hill
▪️Rolling hills, magical forests, bustling villages, sleepy hamlets
▪️Customizable protagonist, face, hair, armor, etc

Finally put together my top 10 games of 2025. I wanted to play a good chunk of Ghost of Yotei before finalizing it. I'm glad I did because it rules.

Congratulations Donkey Kong Bananza! Incredible platformer and mayhem simulator. Clair Obscur is a close second with Hades II rounding out the top 3.

Nintendo, video games!

Recently finished both Marvel Cosmic Invasion and Silent Hill F—both good games! Silent Hill F is particularly great. Here are my reviews of each.

Man, I really hope Fable is good. I loved the original trilogy despite 3 being a little disappointing. I'm also very curious about Forza Horizon 6.

As I continue down my never-ending quest to play as many Metroidvania games as possible, I’ve decided to try out 2022’s HAAK.

I’m only about 2 hours in but it rules so far.

Rolled credits in Silent Hill f yesterday. Great game! Will likely be on my Top 10. Now I just gotta play Ghost of Yotei before finalizing my list.

This is the first time I’ve ever owned a set of pans that need to be “pre-seasoned.”

I've been on a Silent Hill kick recently. Finished the Silent Hill 2 Remake (which rules) and now I'm playing through Silent Hill f (which is also good).

I've been a huge Resident Evil fan but never really got into Silent Hill. I clearly missed out because man, these games are great! And spooky AF!

I lied when I said Metroid Prime 4 was my last review of the year—here are a couple more! Have a great new years everyone. 🍾

Man, my Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater coded ass brain cannot get used to the controls in Skate Story. Using circle for ollies just does not compute. And then add the triggers for tricks? Forget about it.

My Honda Civic hits the sweet spot. Physical knobs and buttons for stuff like cooling, heat, fan speed, etc., but has a touch screen for using Apple Car Play.

I couldn’t imagine trying to use a touch screen for changing the temp or something. Insane.
This is good to see. I've been driving a rental the past couple weeks (was in an accident - but just bumper damage, thankfully) and it's a VW with 90% touch driven controls. It's OK enough most of the time but if you need to quickly adjust/check something, it really sucks.

Amazingly, reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or high—no wonder 90 percent of drivers hate using touchscreens in cars. Finally the auto industry is coming to its senses.

Me, preparing for another spooky session with Silent Hill 2.

Merry Christmas to everyone who celebrates. 🎅🏻 My wife and I are about to do some cookin’!

We needed pans so freaking bad, our old set is so crappy.

2025 is almost over but I managed to finish all three of my Backlog Beats games with weeks to spare! Here's my final report. Looking forward to picking three new games for 2026. Cheers!

My bro @killersundin.bsky.social convinced me to play the Silent Hill 2 remake and I did not realize how awesome this game is. It’s so friggin’ good! I may need to rearrange my top 10 games of 2024 now…

Haven't played a Telltale-style narrative game in a while but the positivity around Dispatch pulled me in. It's really good!

Still catching up on reviewing every new game I've finished this year. Next up is Pokémon Legends: Z-A which is really fun—especially the real-time battles!

Can all companies please stop using these stupid friggin’ things?

Over the weekend my wife and I came to the (very concrete) conclusion that our Schnauzer simply does not like hanging out with other dogs. Which is unfortunate because we'd love for him to have fun and play with other pups if we're at the park, visiting friends, having family over, etc.
