Dead as Disco may be in early access, but it’s still my current Game of the Year by a MILE and is filling the hole that Hi-Fi Rush left in my heart! My review: www.thegamer.com/dead-as-disc...

I played Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight and I’m finally allowed to talk about it! (and I have a lot to say) www.thegamer.com/lego-batman-...

I’ve been looking forward to Invincible VS since it was announced, and it was definitely worth the wait. It’s only brought down by a cheeky ending and slightly slim offerings - my review: www.thegamer.com/invincible-v...

I played through some of Yoshi and the Mysterious Book last week and I’ve been itching to get back to it ever since www.thegamer.com/yoshi-and-th...

I’m a fraud (rhythm-wise), but Dead As Disco is enabling my delusions anyway 😌💃 Here are my thoughts from my hands-on preview. @gepugg.bsky.social’s high score is safe… for now! www.thegamer.com/dead-as-disc...

What 20+ hours of Meat Boy 3D (and a lot of luck) looks like

Had an anger-fuelled blast with Meat Boy 3D, a bit clumsier than the original but still gets a lot right! My review: www.thegamer.com/super-meat-b...

Mario Wonder is one of my favourite Switch games, and it's even better on Switch 2 Read all about it in my review of the Bellabel Park expansion: www.thegamer.com/super-mario-...

Late to the party but Requiem was PEAK

It's here! This has been an utter joy to work on for Dragon Age 2's 15th anniversary. Huge thank you to David Gaider for taking me through how he and all of the writers managed to get this fan favourite story finished, with no time for redrafts www.thegamer.com/dragon-age-2...

I really enjoyed Planet of Lana 2, it builds well on what the first established and raises the bar: www.thegamer.com/planet-of-la...

Scott Pilgrim EX’s announcement was the last time a reveal truly surprised me, and I’m happy to say it mostly lives up to my high hopes! My review: www.thegamer.com/scott-pilgri...

A couple of weeks ago, I had the honor of interviewing Nick Apostolides (Leon) and Angela Sant’Albano (Grace). Two very cool humans and two great interviews. Give them a read! www.thegamer.com/resident-evi... www.thegamer.com/resident-evi...

I’m still conflicted about whether Life is Strange: Reunion bringing Chloe Price and Max Caulfield back together is the right choice or simply an attempt to capitalise on the nostalgia of a classic sapphic story. My full preview: www.thegamer.com/life-is-stra...

Demon Tides is one of my favourite platformers in recent memory, and one with some surprisingly grand ambitions that it absolutely lives up to - roll on Bubsy 4D! www.thegamer.com/demon-tides-...

Double George review day, but I wish I loved My Hero as much as Nioh - it has all the makings of something great, but the story mode is sadly one of the most frustrating I've ever played

I reviewed Nioh 3 for VGC, and it's one of Team Ninja's very best www.videogameschronicle.com/review/nioh-...

First review of the year and kicking things off very strongly with the brilliant Nioh 3, which I’ve not put down over the past two weeks. My review: www.thegamer.com/nioh-3-review/

With 2026 fully upon us now, worth nothing that I too am looking for work to help supplement my current gig. I am open to: - Reviews - Mock reviews - Interviews - Previews - Features/Op-eds - Guides - Across all relevant platforms Email is in my description, DMs are open. Reposts are appreciated!

THE BOY HAS ARRIVED

tips hat

What better way to cap off my birthday than finally diving into KH2 on Steam!

Finished Skate Story, only words for it

I have never heard @rhithewitch.bsky.social and @quinton.bsky.social as loud as when Fate of the Old Republic popped up

Here it is! Absolute labour of love putting this together. From day one, Cyberpunk 2077 has been a story about mortality, and what it means to live on after you die. It was a pleasure to speak with Paweł Sasko and Cherami Leigh about this story. www.thegamer.com/the-making-o...

2025 has been absolutely manic and full of George games, but it’s that time of year so here’s my top 10! www.thegamer.com/game-of-the-...

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is almost two decades in the making and it's arguably worth the wait? #MetroidPrime4 A faithful evolution of the series with a great world and strong characters that carried me all the way through to the end. Here's my full review: www.thegamer.com/metroid-prim...

Cosmic Invasion is yet another great beat ‘em up from the masters at Tribute, although Shredder’s Revenge still stands as my all-time favourite. My review: www.thegamer.com/marvel-cosmi...

Always a pleasure to talk and nerd out with Frederic! www.thegamer.com/marvel-cosmi...

For the first few hours, I really didn’t get what Kirby Air Riders was going for. I haven’t been able to put it down since it clicked, though, and don’t plan on it anytime soon! My review: www.thegamer.com/kirby-air-ri...

SpongeBob games are usually just popcorn games for me, but Titans of the Tide actually has some pretty creative platforming - definitely the best since BFBB! www.thegamer.com/spongebob-sq...

Kirby Air Riders is one of the strangest racers I've ever played, but it's one that I expect I'll be very into www.thegamer.com/kirby-air-ri...

I am still too ill for Halloweening but past George killed it

Last week, I had the honour of attending an event with many of gaming's top actors. You'll find out what the event was for in the near future, and I'll have another larger report from it, but I also used it as an opportunity to discuss the many injustices video game actors still face.

I also spoke to the legendary Jennifer Hale, who told me in the last few weeks, she was offered less for an appearance at a convention than her male counterparts. She also discussed the money corporations are leaving behind by not hiring game actors for film and TV. www.thegamer.com/jennifer-hal...

My review of The Outer Worlds 2! I adored it, but had a lot to say about how I feel Obsidian needs to be more earnest. The best moments are when the writing takes the setting and themes seriously www.thegamer.com/the-outer-wo...

Several of my colleagues were laid off today, and seeing the usual reaction from the usual people pushed me to write a blog post (how retro) about the sad state of online discourse: jackcrustycoleman.com/2025/10/22/l...

Incredibly jealous of whoever gets to work with Eric next, one of the most passionate writers I'm lucky enough to call a friend

In light of being laid off from TheGamer today, I don't intend to let my passions die out. I'll continue to create work independently, and keep that excitement for whatever opportunities come my way in the future. This was a dream career, and I'm not done with it yet.

Don't really know what to add to this that hasn't been said better, but absolutely gutted to lose so many talented writers and friends today

I got laid off from TheGamer today, along with the entire Features team (go give @epicswitzer.bsky.social and @hallafyre.bsky.social a follow!) Needless to say, I'm now looking for work. I'm open to roles in: -Journalism -PR -Copywriting -Copy editing -Games writing -Scriptwriting

Unfortunately, my time as an Editor for TheGamer.com has come to an end. I met some of the best coworkers I've ever had there, I learned and grew a lot. If anyone is looking for a journo, especially for guides, reviews, VR, horror, and farming RPGs, I'd love to hear from you.

Please follow and support what they do next, as all three of them are tremendous talents who deserve the very best. @funnelchest94.bsky.social @epicswitzer.bsky.social @hallafyre.bsky.social No matter what they end up doing, they're going to kick ass and do themselves proud.

TheGamer is losing so much talent today, it breaks my heart. On a personal and professional level, I cannot put the loss into words. Everyone being laid off today is incredible and would be an asset to your team. They have jumped through more hoops than you can imagine. Hire them!

Not the best weekend, but really really proud and excited to share my Ninja Gaiden 4 review :) Definitely my Game of the Year, surprising no one - www.thegamer.com/ninja-gaiden...

I made a game! Last weekend, I and six pals created O.R.C. in a couple of hours. We playtested once and decided that it was good enough to launch into the world, so if you've always wanted a dexterity dice game about rowdy orc cheerleaders, grab it for free here! sledgehammer-gaming.itch.io/orc

I see games media old guard are doing the “let’s shit on the newer folks rather than offering to support them” thing again. I’m tired. As if there’s not enough aggression towards us from audiences.

Next up is my Denshattack preview, a game that very pleasantly surprised me! www.thegamer.com/denshattack-...

I’ve not shut up about Absolum since I first saw it, and I’m happy to say it completely lived up to all my hopes - one of my favourite games this year for sure: www.thegamer.com/absolum-revi...
