Why Hotline Miami 2 Left Me Feeling Cold
I was surprised to find myself losing interest in playing Hotline Miami 2 less than a few hours into playing it. Here's why I think the sequel fails to capture the spirit of the excellent original.
What's going on?
Hello there ladies and gentleladies. This is an update about what's going on now, and what I've got planned for the next few months. It starts off pretty concrete about games I'm covering etc, but then does dive off into some heavier stuff. It's probably worth a read if you're a...
New Website!
Exciting-ish news! I've been thinking about this a lot lately, and I figured that if I wasn't using YouTube adverts OR YouTube comments, I might as well build a home for my stuff that lives in a different, cleaner place. I ALSO realised that a lot of people find it frustrating that they can...
Looking for hope at GDC
Hello! Last week I went to GDC to represent the world of analog gaming with the rest of Shut Up & Sit Down, and was asked to write a thing about the conference while I was there. This is that thing. Sorry I've not been making many videos lately - it's a trend that will likely continue for t...
What Can Change the Nature of a Moon?
Majora's Mask! Remember that old bean, eh? Anyway, this has been bothering me for a while, so thought I'd put my brief thoughts into a little video. Things will be quiet for the next week or two, as I'm off to GDC with Shut Up & Sit Down and then away with my girlfriend for a bit the we...

Endless Legend: IS IT GOOD?
Hello sweetheart! This is a video about a game that isn't really new, but I hope you enjoy it anyway. If you don't enjoy it that's OK too, jesus do I have to explain everything, Dorothy? Just give me a break for the love of god. Thanks. Matt x
Trademarking Volume - My Thoughts
Hello guys! Recovering from a cold, slowly - but had a daft idea for a video in the shower this morning that I simply couldn't resist. Is it any good? God knows, I'm really rather unwell and don't trust my brain at all. BYE
Pants Man Livestream
Just a reminder that the charity Pants Man stream is in just over two hours. It'll be on YouTube at a later date. Have a lovely day! x
Darkest Dungeon: Worth It Yet?
Here's a thing - I've been struggling to know how to deal with Early Access stuff at the moment, especially as it seems like so many of the games that swoop into my HOT-PIPE RADAR these days seem to be Work In Progress rather than done deals. So yeah, IS IT GOOD is strictly reserved for fi...
I'VE FIXED EVERYTHING
Hello there! I've had this video as an idea in my head for a couple of months, and today's news that EG were dropping review scores felt like the perfect time to finally do it. It's silly! But I hope that you like it. Matt x
Everything Dying Light Gets Wrong
I REALLY wasn't sure about the title for this one - especially as I loved so much about it - but for me the emphasis on violence and the AAA-filler really fluffed up the potential it had. Anyway, here's a big ramble about what I thought of Dying Light. You might like it, you might not! Tha...
Daft Souls 32: AAA Filler-Fluff, Life is Strange, Danganronpa, Gunman Clive 2
I forgot to post the last one of these on here, possibly even the last two! Sorry about that, I do hope you don't mind. This week I was joined by a talented pair of chaps known as "Gav" and "Jim". Contains much swears.
PANTS MAN
Whoa mamma! That's right. Me and Bratt are bringing it back for one more BIG DAY of pants for charity. I hope this brings a smile to faces. :)
What You Need to Know about Amiibos
WELL HELLO THERE, how the devil are you? Things are still pretty up and down with me at the moment, but I'm trying to make the most of the days when I feel OK to make whatever video soars into my heart. Today it's this silly little thing. Tomorrow? WHO KNOWS. Actually tomorrow I'm worki...
My 10 Moments of 2014
Hello hello! I've been working on this for probably a couple of weeks - I do hope you like it. It's sort of a celebration of the things I really loved last year, and partly a way of SORT OF DOING some of the video things I wanted to last year but didn't get a chance. Matt x
CROTA'S CHEESY END
SORRY I know a lot of you don't care about Destiny, but crikey I'm fond of that silly old game. This is another very daft video about it - hope you enjoy! Matt
ONIONS
Bit of a cheat, this - as the footage is actually the same stuff I used for SUSD - but I want to get back into the swing of making cooking vids, so here you go. New VO and jokes etc, so might be worth a watch for those who've already sort of seen it. ANYWAY, I'm sort of getting back into th...
Chaos Reborn Versus
Hello hello! Happy new year! Easing myself into things (and learning to use new gear) with a handful of videos of me playing Chaos against some chaps from the Subreddit. There's two vids up so far - the second has far better audio. Matt
A Christmas Message
Hello there, and Merry Christmas! I wanted to write you all a short message. Well, actually I wanted to make you all a video Christmas card we me dressed as an elf and dancing around, but sadly in the end I just didn’t have time. That’s been a theme this year, and not one I’m proud of - I did...
Daft Souls 28: The Long Dark, This War of Mine, Chaos Reborn, Dark Below

Chaos Reborn: Early Access Turbopeek
GOLLY GOSH I'M ON A ROLL! Alright, so basically my mum's staying with me this week which means I've got time to actually play games and make videos and stuff without having to worry about stuff like cooking. So I've been taking advantage of the bonus time! Hope you guys enjoy the vi...
TellTale's Game of ThrOH NO (Spoiler-Free)
A short no-spoils vid about something that drove me mad in TellTale's latest thannng. Hope you're having a good week! Matt x
The Talos Principle: Is It Good?
Didn't I tell you I'd cover something different soon? I did, didn't I! And here it flipping is! My thoughts on The Talos Principle after about 4 hours. Sure, it isn't a super-in-depth-review-thing but to be honest it didn't grab me enough to invest a huge amount more time into i...
Destiny in Detail - Worries for the Future (Part 3)
YO here's another one GOOD LORD MATT, REALLY? Listen I know, I know. But I had it all scripted out, and if it didn't get done prior to the expansion then it would have been a big ole' waste of time. But now that this is all wrapped up, I'm free to start doing vids about OTHER THING...
Destiny in Detail - Part 2
HEY yeah sorry if you're not interested in these, but if you are then here's another one. x
Gingerbread PEARS
Yes you read that right, oh boy oh boy. Posting this up here as you may have noticed that I've not produced a huge amount of work over the last month - been breaking the back of designing the final Gold Club bag (which is soooo nearly done) and then I'm pretty much free to focus solely on v...
