Before I had kids: PUBG. I went real hard on that game for 18 months. I played 10+ hrs a week and never lost interest.

After kids (PUBG is stressful, I don’t need more of that) it’d be Rocket League. I’ve been playing it consistently since Day 1 and whilst I don’t see myself improving much anymore, I still get a kick (ahem) out of scoring a nice goal, or a laugh at totally missing an empty net.

Wasn’t it recently reported that Microsoft and Bethesda had no real love or interest in the game, and they sort of just left them to it?

Hogs of War.

I’m sure I’m doing it something of a disservice here, but even at the time I remember thinking it looked pretty grim.

Lots of browns and greens, lots of repeated textures and lots of pretty clumsy animations.

And you know what? None of that mattered in the slightest.
