That being said, if you can actually ride a horse, you’ve seen a horse cock, and you know that’ll fucking kill you.
Indeed, who can forget the embarrassing demise of Mr Hands?

I think the next naughty dog game will be on playstation. I’ll be sorry to miss it, but not enough to buy the console.
- Comment on PlayStation Studios Removes Nearly All PC References From Websites 1 week ago:
Yeah, I won’t be buying a playstation, but I’ll definitely buy the next naughty dog game if I have a device that can run it.

- Comment on PS6 and Xbox Project Helix "will start at a 50% higher price" than PS5 and Xbox Series X, predict analysts following Sony price hike – and $999 "is not impossible" 2 weeks ago:
I’m kinda hoping valve waits for component costs to calm down before releasing it - otherwise I could see the price making it DOA.
- Comment on What was the first game you ever bought ? 2 weeks ago:
Jet Set Willy. It was on a cassette tape, for the spectrum computer. My brother’s and I got probably hundreds of hours out of it.

I think I actually got an achievement for checking out 2B’s arse ten times.
- Comment on Nier Automata 3 weeks ago:
I gave up in the third playthrough for this reason. I seemed to be just doing the same stuff over and over. And I don’t really like bullet hell things. But TBF I loved the style and the music, and the game gave me some truly epic moments.

Cool! I’ve been meaning to give cyberpunk another playthrough when I get time.
- Comment on Switch 2 demand appears to be flagging as Nintendo reportedly lowers production 3 weeks ago:
I played cyberpunk on my steam deck - it’s my only device. I picked it up on sale for £22
- Comment on Nier Automata 3 weeks ago:
Yeah it’s a game designed for multiple playthroughs. First time you see the ending credits, you’re actually only about a third of the way through!
- Comment on Nier Automata 3 weeks ago:
I enjoyed it, but you can have too much of a good thing and I gave up a few hours into the third playthrough. Music was spectacular tho, and I liked the art style a lot.
- Comment on I've had enough shimmying along ledges and squeezing through cracks sideways to last me a lifetime 3 weeks ago:
I’m a couple of hours into the last of us 2, and I have already edged through a bunch of cracks. And done the ledge thing too. I don’t hate it.

Man, I spent so long playing elite! Docking with those space stations took a whole lot of practise. And the graphics seemed amazing at the time, amazing how far and fast things have changed.
- Comment on is black myth wokong a good game? 3 weeks ago:
I absolutely agree about difficulty and frustration. I’m in my 50s, my hands are a bit fucked, and I don’t have the reaction times I did a few decades back. I also just don’t have as much screen time. I don’t want to spend that limited time getting my arse kicked again and again and making no progress. With a few notable exceptions, if I can’t get past something after a dozen or so tries, I’ll usually quit.
It’s very hard to define the difference, but there’s a type of difficulty that gives me a real feeling of triumph to overcome, and there’s a type that just annoys me. I can’t be arsed with the latter - life is short and backlog is long.

Strong coffee just makes me feel shaky and uncomfortable, with a comedown 2 or 3 hours later that makes me crave sugar. That’s really all I get from it. I’ve done pretty much all the drugs, this just seems like a crap one. I do like a cup of tea tho.
- Comment on Xbox as a platform is officially dead 5 weeks ago:
If I’m going to buy a PC type console, it’ll be the steam machine. No idea why anyone would go for something that has windows on it at this point. I guess some will buy it because it has the Xbox name but the value of that is waning.
