At this point, GamePupper is as done with the holiday as we are

Happy Frozen Boiler Outlet Pipe Day to all who observe it 🎊🎉💃

What if none of these things is a distraction from the other things and instead they're all just horrible things

Happy new year from these twerps, recreating the Do the Right Thing poster for 2026. Love to you and yours x

I love the Beastie Boys back catalogue, but nothing tops this for me

Hiya. I wrote one of three end of year pieces and here it is. Another two, er, next year. 12 Essential Multiplayer Games That Made 2025 Way More Fun: www.forbes.com/sites/mattga...

Today I learned that Googling Katamari Damacy offers you the option to roll a Katamari all over the results page. It's good stuff

another robot highlight for 2025: man wearing humanoid mocap suit kicks himself in the balls

Merry Christmas and all that. Santa Paws got his annual walk to the pub, and all the fusses

GamePupper went to daycare today, and they sent him back with a festive bandana, because they're the best people in this world

GamePupper is already done with Christmas/overfussed by family/full of food secretly given by family

Sorry We're Closed, one of my favourite games of the year, is on Epic Games for free and you MUST get it

Because I'm an absolute legend, here's another article to help you avoid racist relatives, questions about if you're having kids, etc 9 Fun, Cheap, And Easy-To-Learn Party Card Games For The Holidays www.forbes.com/sites/mattga...

Last-minute Christmas presents (to yourself or someone else) don't get much better than Trigger Happy from @bitmapbooks.com. Check out my review here: www.forbes.com/sites/mattga...

"And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die..."

Yep, of course I'm watching The Muppet Christmas Carol right now

Oh boy, Megabonk is going to become a problem in my life real quick

After waiting since 2019 - and my estimated waiting time going from six months to "postponed to deal with urgent cases only", I finally have my Adult ADHD assessment next week. I really hope this works out.

I honestly think the BAFTA Games Awards are the only chance for Split Fiction to get a very well-deserved GOTY award. Full longlists here:

If you've somehow missed out on the funniest game of the last few years, @coalsupper.bsky.social's Thank Goodness You're Here! is finally on Xbox from today...

Ah why not Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

"You coming to bed?" "No, seriously, can I go to sleep now?"

I love how Google Opinion Rewards routinely pays me 18p for saying I didn't enter a Greggs one week ago

We stayed at a massive AirBnB recently, and the downstairs toilet had this haunted bust of a Victorian Katherine Ryan

I finally caved and bought a Switch 2 Pro Controller and headset, because I learned today that GameChat and the wider UI for online co-op is absolute dog shit. Also, my Switch 2 loves to forget the connections to all of my other controllers

Thanks, I hate it (and love it). If you like your horror games, get Quite a Ride, from Kazakhstan's Goodwin Games and @silverliningint.bsky.social, on your wishlist

I'm at a wedding reception, and the singer is a white Yorkshireman who exclusively sings reggae and ska. And no, not just UB40 and Bad Manners. He just sang "Dat" by Pluto Shervington in full Jamaican patois, and it's easily one of the most surreal moments I've witnessed in 2025.

Ah great, AI wine, just what everyone asked for

GamePupper is all done with Scarborough and Whitby

We're celebrating Thanksgiving with our American friends, which only means one thing: deep frying an 18lb turkey in vegetable oil at 175°C.

Scarborough has some incredible hidden spots. We took Dougal squirrel hunting (current score: Dougal 0-73 Squirrels)

You know you're hitting 40 when you're more excited about getting a new front door than the entirety of Christmas

pikachushockedface.jpg Tell you what, I know it's a public vote for the Joysticks, but given that Split Fiction just won't win any big awards in any major awards ceremony even though it deserves all of them, I'll take E33 as a backup

I really wish I was allowed to simply title this "Look At This Fucking Tartan Xbox Controller" but this will have to make do. Seriously though, look at this fucking tartan Xbox controller

My darling @samg-g.bsky.social saw a Christmas decorating trend on TikTok. I ended up figuring it out over an hour with a pen, paper, maths, and a little cry. Not gonna lie, I'm over the fucking moon with how it turned out

Yep, we're *those* people. Well, my wife is, but I'm along for the ride, as the lights make me happy #simpleton

I daresay the Call of Duty Black Ops 7 campaign may be the worst in the series, and it's not even close - utterly mad, given how amazing BLOPS6 was. Online only. Co-op with strangers by default. Endless XP and upgrade chasing. Can't pause. No checkpoints. Shit story. Who is this even for?

"Tonight's SmackDown is brought to you by Army Men Air Combat, the most intense chopper game in the sky, good to go by 3DO!"

Somehow, the only thing I bought for myself at Disneyland Paris was a MASSIVE Darth Vader mug - 880ml. I fear that drinking a coffee from this will make me see into the future, and no one survives, not even the children

I know there are a lot of really important causes to fight for, but I can't help but feel that people really laid down for the rebranding of Lilt to Fanta

Committed myself to sleeping for under five hours just so I could do Big Thunder Mountain at rope drop, because I'm a massive dweeb

There are three things guaranteed in life: death, taxes, and child-free couples in their late 30s going to Disneyland Paris during term time

We went back to the Eiffel Tower at night. Still f***ing massive. Gorgeous views from the top, though

I'm sure this will probably be a known thing, but there's an artist who does gaming pixel art with tiles across Paris. These are everywhere. You love to see it

Bonjour Just quickly checking in to confirm that the Eiffel Tower is f***ing massive

It absolutely blows my mind that family-friendly Nintendo is so militantly protective of its IPs, but this AI shit is in the top ten most purchased games in its sale right now

Little man was recovering from an injury, so didn't get his scheduled haircut and therefore looked abandoned. What a difference 24 hours makes!

Your man Joe Marler, turning up to The Traitors finale dressed like Jack-2 in Tekken Tag Tournament

Forgot to post this last night, but during the fireworks, GamePupper cuddled up with Panda, the only toy he's had since gotcha day in 2019

Well, that's another massive thing to add to the "I can't afford this but I need it" list. LEGO Star Trek kicks off with the iconic Enterprise (and a spectacular GWP)
