I can’t believe it’s actually happening. Universal bringing a brand new theme park to the UK. So exciting! The concept art looks really interesting, especially that coaster on the left with the launch and double spike!

Centralised platforms are never good for this very reason. Any company that goes for an IPO inevitably ends up worse for the users.

I’ll certainly pick up a Switch 2 on launch, if only to feed my handheld addiction. However, it’s definitely not the most exciting of reveals and so far it’s missing that “Nintendo magic”.

Presumably there will be something more interesting about it to take it beyond just a Switch Pro, but so far it’s not clear what that will be.

When is a handheld PC no longer handheld? I think this one is getting close to the tipping point. Just look at that picture of the dude holding it!

The more construction photos I see of Epic Universe, the harder it gets to not book a last minute trip for 2025!

The theming looks insane. The rides are looking superb. The food will no doubt be awesome.

Got to be strong and wait for 2026.

I’m not sure how this exists as an Ultra HD 4K movie but I’m glad I found it. I had to import it from Germany to get it though.

It’s a surprisingly good movie, considering it was effectively promotional material for Halo 4. It still holds up really well visually as well.

Worth a watch if you’re a fan.

First snow of the season and it’s a big one and in November as well. Wouldn’t expect this until the new year at least.

So peaceful out though! 😌

More. Again. Forever.

Happy to get to see the #Courteeners again. I’ve not seen them since before the pandemic.

Just a shame that the concert had technical issues in the first half (curse of the Co-Op Live?). Thankfully they pulled it together with a classic acoustic interval sing-a-long and a top encore.

The #DMA’s were great as well. One of the best supports I’ve seen for a while and great to see them get full access to the lights, screens, etc.
