Gamestyle (2023)
Many moons ago, I used to spend a lot of my free time running a videogame website named Gamestyle. The site focused on reviewing, previewing and publishing feature-length articles about video games. Over time, it achieved a reputation for its rigorous reviewing policy and efforts to establish itself as an unbiased and reliable source of…

Anbernic RG351V
I bought an Anbernic RG351V. After seeing someone mention retro gaming on Twitter, I suddenly thought about all the many hours of gaming I’ve enjoyed over the years.

Red Dead Redemption II
Little under two weeks ago, I purchased Rockstar Games‘ cowboy, wild-west themed video game sequel Red Dead Redemption II. So far, I have racked up around 30 hours of gameplay; I’m addicted. I don’t think I’ve ever spend this many consecutive days playing a game since my teenage years. I bought it on PC via…

More information than you ever cared for about my first season in charge at Oldham Athletic. Digitally, of course.
