More consolidation in this industry. It's bad. Hopefully, I can return to writing more cheery articles soon.

IGN Buying The Gamer Network Is Bad For The Games Media Industry

I am going to preface this article by saying I quite like IGN. Sure they have had some ups and downs but the current editorial team in my opinion is amazing. I love watching Nintendo Voice Chat which…

Xbox’s Strategy Just Doesn’t Seem Coherent And It’s Worrying

The #BAFTAGamesAwards outshone the most recent #TheGameAwards. It understood how to celebrate the industry.

Life has gotten in the way recently so I haven’t been writing as much. I went into #thegameawards as a way of unwinding but sadly I was left disappointed.

Video Game Physical Guides Were The Original DLC

With the rise of the internet these days you don’t tend to see many physical guides anymore but when I was younger most major releases had a guide you could buy. With websites like GameFAQs and many media outlets information that was typically found in guides being provided for free online the need for physical book guides has dwindled entirely. Furthermore, games generally guide you through the game a lot more than they used to so even needing to find a guide is more reserved for completionism or being stuck on a puzzle for the most part. More on this later.
