It's the reunion almost no-one asked for! Thanks to Christopher Dring for asking me to host this week's The Game Business - and cool that I got to (sort of) appear with Matthew Handrahan youtu.be/ceJROeihqx0?si…

That sound you hear is every developer and publisher with games due to release in 2025 and early 2026 collectively sighing with relief

I'm heading to Nordic Game later this month with two goals: 1. Meet awesome indie devs with awesome games. Email me james AT digitalbandidos.com if you'd like to meet. 2. Deliver my latest slightly chaotic, multi-guest. More details: linkedin.com/posts/james-e-…

Uriel Septim: Take the Amulet of King's. Give it to Jauffre. He alone knows where to find the last of my sons Me: Sorry, did you say Joffrey? Nah, mate. I'd rather not

Forgot how awful Oblivion's persuasion mechanic is. If you're trying to make someone like you, why would you Admire, Boast, Joke AND Co-erce? Surely you'd just focus on the one or two that they liked.

More data/insight into just how well Expedition 33 is doing. Great to see a title like this perform so well

Having recurring pleasant moments when I remember that in less than a month, we'll have in our hands the first new Nintendo console in 8 years and the first new mainline Mario Kart in 11 years

Fun fact: My Non-Violent Game Of The Day (BOOK OUT NOW) account has now covered 1,337 games. Does that make it leet?

While everyone's getting excited at seeing the Skyrim logo added to Oblivion, I forgot that it was in Morrowind all along!

I don't think I will ever tire of this silhouette

Finally finished Indy last night. It is everything I hoped it would be. Was worried it would mostly be a Nazi shooter, but I barely used my guns. A friend of mine said this isn't an Indiana Jones game, it's an Indiana Jones simulator - and he's spot on. Well done machinegames

Just back from a gaming birthday party for one of my son's friends, and I played Fortnite for the first time since 2018. It's changed a lot. I sucked less. And weirdly, I didn't hate it. I'm even tempted to download it and try again. Send help.

Nearly at Nordic

Just read that Perfect Dark, one of my favourite games off all time, turns 25 today. Celebrate by reading one of my favourite articles I ever wrote: nintendolife.com/news/2020/12/f… Absolute privilege to speak to that team!
