Games of 2026:
Little Nightmares Enhanced Edition (NSW2) - I’m not a massive horror game fan, but this intrigued me. Some great environments and puzzles and a real sense of dread throughout.

I’m around 10 hours into Metaphor ReFantazio and really loving it. I was holding off for a Switch 2 release but playing on PC.

Reading took a major back seat for me this year. I’ve been reading again the last few days and think I’ll read a lot more in 2026.

As usual when I have some time off work to play games there’s absolutely nothing that scratches the itch of what I want to play. So many good games, none of them good enough to engage my brain right now.

Played through the Pragmata demo and thought it was great. Gave real Vanquish vibes - although with a hacking child on your back! Looked really impressive as well, will be an interesting Switch 2 game to see - I think I will play on PC.

The Pragmata demo certainly likes to compile those shaders.

On my way to the airport. Should finally be heading home after cancelled flights and an extra overnight stay. I’ve barely slept but can’t wait play Metroid when I get back.

Right, as promised, here's 30 personal recommendations from yer man Scullion for the current Black Friday sale on the UK Nintendo eShop.
To stress: this is the UK sale. Some of these will be in the US too, but not all are.
It's also far from an exhaustive list!

Took a punt on a cheap game in the sales - Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo (I liked the film and thought it was a weird licence to have). I’ve been really pleasantly surprised, it’s a really solid adventure game.

I purchased Yakuza 0 on Switch 2. It didn’t even come with a Ryu Ga Gotoku sticker, what is the world coming to?

Honestly Windows is so shit, how is it unrivalled for OS? I have a gaming PC which I literally only use for Steam. Windows still has constant updates and today it’s asking to reinstall Windows to repair files. Not to mention the quarterly push to sign up for Office 365 and One Drive etc.

I’ve played around an hour of Age of Imprisonment and it seems great so far. Looks amazing and the Zonai tech makes it very different to previous games.
