That's Dark Void done. It had some fun ideas that could have been executed better. Story was all over the place though. Next up, I'm revisiting Spec Ops: The Line.

I have platinumed Ghost of Yotei with every activity done. Now, I'm going to binge a few short games from a couple of generations ago, starting with Dark Void.

My Blood of Mehran review is here. It's a throwback to action games from a couple of generations back, but an average experience. #gaming #videogames #gamenews

Here's my Nicktoons and The Dice of Destiny review. It has some entertaining parts to it, but there are technical issues. #gaming #videogames #gamenews

Following today's news, I guess this will be the last EA game I'll be reviewing. Anyway, here's my FC 26 review.

I spent approximately 60 hours doing everything I could in Ghost of Yotei. Here's my review. www.thesixthaxis.com/2025/09/25/g... #ghostofyotei #gaming #videogames

My view is that this government knows exactly what it is doing and believes in some of Reform's messaging. I bet there is no single advisor to the PM or Home Secretary from a minority background to give context to what the flag represents to some of us. shorturl.at/VfEMC #UK

When will companies and governments learn that when you pander to and court bigots, life just becomes worse for everyone?

Nothing sums up the UK like landing at the airport to find the DLR is closed so no connection to the train station I would need to get to, from where I would need to get a rail replacement bus. £40 spent on an Uber instead.

Here's my review for Fresh Tracks, a fun entry to the rhythm genre with a very good original soundtrack. The story and delivery is great, and tracks like The Inspiration and Ekkos really stand out. #gaming #videogames

Books are my other passion aside from games, so Tiny Bookshop is near enough a perfect game for me. Check out my review.

Here's my review of The Dark Queen of Mortholme. It's only 20 minutes long but it is one of the best interactive experiences I've played in a while. #gaming #indiegames #gamereview

A Dream About Parking Lots lasts around 30 minutes, but packs in a pretty good therapy session. Check out my review.

I experienced Dear Me, I Was, the Arc System Works Switch 2 exclusive title. It has some great art and piano music, but this is much more a story with minimal interactivity rather than a game. #Switch2 #gaming #videogames

My review for Birdigo is up, and it is a fun word puzzle game. But progression is really hampered and it can be frustrating. #gaming #videogames

My latest review is of @monstertheater.bsky.social's Atomic Owl and I enjoyed it. It's a fun roguelike that you can get through in a few hours. #gaming #videogames

The people of the UK have a brand new internet experience in place, that the rest of you will definitely be jealous of. www.thesixthaxis.com/2025/07/25/w... #internet #onlinesafetybill #gaming #uk

No, I don't think I will. #UK #onlinesafetybill

Welcome to the new internet! Why worry about thinking about which content you're allowed to buy or watch? Corporations and governments will gladly remove that stress for you! 😊 #internet #onlinesafetybill #itch

I've played 10 matches so far of EA Sports FC 26. Here are my thoughts on the Authentic and Competitive modes.

Here's my Shadow Labyrinth review, and the game is not as good as it could have been. Boring environments to explore, a very slow drip feed of upgrades, and a story that just doesn't grab you. #gaming

I spent some time writing about how The Witcher 3: Blood & Wine shows the issue of class disparity, social inequality, and class warfare. www.thesixthaxis.com/2025/07/13/c... #gaming #videogames #gamenews

I've written an article that explores the issue of class disparity using The Witcher 3: Blood & Wine to discuss some themes. www.thesixthaxis.com/2025/07/13/c... #gaming #videogames #gamenews

Spent a few more hours with Wild Hearts today. I'm enjoying its vibe and how engrossing the world is. I've spent more time wandering the world looking for secrets than hunting the monsters.

Dear #gamedev and #indiedev community. I'm available to provide mock reviews for your in development games, so if this is a service you're interested in then get in touch and let's talk. I have 14 years of game reviewing experience under my belt, with over 300 reviews www.fiverr.com/s/YRz9Gga

Are there any devs working on mid tier action games? I'm talking about things like Army of Two, Binary Domain, Call of Juarez, Dark Void, Red Faction etc? Any recent games that have released that fall into this label? I have an itch to scratch.

I have finished my quest to confront Chaos! Next, I'll be playing Wild Hearts, hunting some monsters.

I've decided to stop playing Football Manager 24. So many hours spent on that game, but I'm just going to wait for FM26 now for my football sim fix.

First they'll ban books about the trans community, then it'll hit the wider LGBT community, then books about another minority group Reform finds unpalatable. It shows they want to deny and erase the world we live in because it doesn't fit their bigoted view www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... #uk

I Am Your Beast is a fantastic and challenging first person shooter with a really great setting too.

Basil Brush should be the next James Bond.

My copy of @ongamesjournal.bsky.social has arrived, and I really like the original PlayStation cover.

Right, I keep seeing misinformation about the lower Thames Crossing. 1. It is not in London. 2. Kent only has one crossing across the river. Here's a quick look. The red circle is Dartford Crossing. The green line is where the new crossing will be. It's needed because one crossing is a bottleneck.

If the government is proscribing Palestinian Action as a terrorist organisation, will it also do the same to the IDF for killing innocent people? Yeah probably not.

After 114 hours I have finished my replay of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Still as engrossing and mesmerising as the first time I played it 10 years ago. The next game from my backlog is going to be chaos. youtu.be/no-MCGxZcsQ?...

My latest review piece is about Rematch, a multiplayer football game from Sloclap. It has some potential but needs to spend a bit more time at the training ground.

If anyone has a Backloggd account feel free to add me. You can see what I'm playing and I'll post all of my reviews there too. If you're wondering where my profile pic is from it is from an upcoming game called Llamalandia. backloggd.com/u/AranAxis #gaming #videogames

Chucking this up for the lunchtime crowd. Have a read and let me know your thoughts. www.thesixthaxis.com/2025/06/15/l... #gaming #videogames

This is a piece I know is some of my best writing. I played through Tell Me Why, explore the themes of loss and acceptance, and how it reflects on current society.

Spent this evening wandering around Toussaint in The Witcher 3. Found all of the Witcher gear sets, and just enjoyed the vibe of the silly fairytale setting.

Here's my Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon review. This game has so much promise from interesting quests and so many character build options. But it is lest down by major performance issues. www.thesixthaxis.com/2025/06/13/t... #gaming #videogames #gamenews

It was only a couple of months ago I played through the anniversary edition of Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine. So it made sense to play the Master Crafted edition and compare. #gaming #videogames

My latest #Pokemon card pick ups are Loudred, Magby, and Garganacl art rares from the Japanese Ancient Roar set. Only 15 cards left to complete the entire set.

Today I found out that the new Reform leader of Kent County Council shared racist and Islamaphobic content when running for the Tories in 2019. www.theguardian.com/politics/201... #UK #UKpol #politics #reform

@playingwithhistory.bsky.social was born as a series on TheSixthAxis. Now it is turning it into a fully fledged book by Adrian and Jim. If you like history and you like videogames this is for you! The Kickstarter is now live. www.thesixthaxis.com/2025/06/03/p... #gaming

Went to Lyric Theatre in Hammersmith yesterday evening and watched Marriage Material. Excellent show that captured the essence of growing up in a Punjabi Sikh family, covering the ups, downs, and generational traumas. I recommend it. #theatre

Football Manager is a relationship simulator with a football wrapper.
