I'm looking for work. I have experience working in news, features, interviews and essays, and am able to do any of the above.

Just found out my wife might be losing her job, so I'm desperately searching for work. Contract, full-time, freelance, whatever. Press, PR, consulting, anything. I have 16 years of editorial experience and have been writing about games for 13. Reviews, news, previews, guides, etc. RTs appreciated.

Please...just one article...

Making Critical Distance list of 2025 games criticism worth reading is a fantastic way to start 2026, gotta say critical-distance.com/2026/01/01/t...

Openly wept several times during the Stranger Things finale. I am not immune to propaganda Messy, messy season, but the core emotion is done so well that it all just fades away at the end Also mark this down, Sadie Sink is going to be nominated for an Oscar within a decade

Hope everybody has a good New Years Eve! My one hope is that my 2026 is better work-wise than 2025

Not to defend this season (which has been undoubtedly messy) but I don't think Stranger Things fans know what queer baiting actually is

Let's GO

A mouth that eats and eats and eats by @edgarallanbro.bsky.social "None of us are innocent, myself least of all." Read on:

Working with Chris has been a highlight of my career, to put it lightly. He's one of the best in the industry.

I'm gonna speak as somebody who has wrote for Retro Dodo several times: this is a deeply embarrassing article that is serving as the normalisation of an actual war criminal, and Brandon should (and CAN) do better.

A gentle reminder if you've received an invoice from a Freelancer/Self employed person which is due before Christmas. Be a love, and pay it today.

Love to be chasing payments literally the week before Christmas. Really how I was wanting to spend the holiday season

At this point if you don't explicitly say you're anti GenAI I don't trust you It's giving "oh I'm apolitical"

Breens might be short and bald, but he's also damn good at this

Working The Game Awards tomorrow, send me energy

Reached out to some old University friends and have been reminded of the startling passage of time

Where Winds Meet is a beautiful game with decent combat held back by an utterly dire localisation, a cacophony of bugs and a general lack of polish. My review:

Bumping this before the weekend! Please get in touch if you're taking pitches

Bumping this for the US crowd!

I'm looking for work. I have experience working in news, features, interviews and essays, and am able to do any of the above.

EXCLUSIVE: So far it's been unclear what proof Rockstar Games has to justify its firing of 34 union members, who it claims were leaking "confidential information in a public forum". PMG has now seen some of the messages which contributed to this decision being made. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TvW...

I reviewed @necrosoftgames.com 's Demonschool for @shacknews.com, and I really dug it. It's gorgeous, charming, genuinely funny, and the combat system has the juice to keep you searching for the perfect turn. Also, there's a Gunsmith Cats reference. You love to see it. Wholly recommended.

Be aware of me too pls

AEW is so cool, man

Covered Where Winds Meet for MMORPG.com! It's a review in progress, but so far I'm not entirely hot, not entirely cold on it. It's trying a lot of things, and it's doing very few of them exceedingly well. www.mmorpg.com/reviews/wher...
