    What has happened to the Assassin’s Creed video game series should be considered a war crime. At one stage this was comfortably my favourite video game series of all time, as I was gripped by its breath taking vision, storytelling, characters, philosophy and lore, as well as gameplay comprised of an assassin fantasy, open world…

    A huge night for WWE and wrestling in general as WWE, capitalising on its resurgent boom period in the last 2 years and partnership with UFC under the TKO banner, made it’s debut on Netflix. But how was the show itself in my opinion? Read on: PROS: CONS: OVERALL Despite the momentous occasion I was…

    I’m not American, I’m British, and so I’ve been told a few times that I shouldn’t really care about Donald Trump and the path the United States is currently on. I shouldn’t be upset and distressed about it because it won’t affect me. This is bullshit, for 2 reasons. First of all being, I’m not…

    With one of football’s wackiest characters, even by football manager standards, returning to the dugout this month with his appointment as manager of struggling League 2 basket case Swindon Town, I thought he’d be a good case to start my series of individual pieces on football managers and my overall judgement on their careers, strengths…

    Crash Bandicoot has been the video game series that has endured in terms of my enthusiasm for it since my childhood. Born in 1998 and a keen Playstation kid from a very early age, I was caught up in that era’s Crash-Mania, owning all 4 of the original Naughty Dog games and enthusiastically consuming even…

    I’m English but tend to think I have a good grasp of US history given that it’s one of my favourite areas as a history fanatic. So given that I’ve already done a list of the most embarassing UK election losses, I thought I might as well do one for the US as well. US…

    At the most recent UK General Election, merely a few weeks ago, Rishi Sunak’s Conservative Party suffered what is possibly the biggest beating any major party has suffered under the First Past the Post system, an astonishing far cry from only 5 years earlier when it was the Labour Party that suffered the humiliating defeat…

    You’d be forgiven for thinking that you’d stepped into another reality post July 13th 2024, the moment a deranged assassin took aim at Donald Trump and came within inches of killing him, but ultimately only succeeded in clipping his right ear. I say that because judging by the media reaction since, they all seem to…

    With the Conservative Party suffering a disastrous defeat at the 2024 UK general election, bringing to an end a hideously grim and destructive 14 years in Government, here’s how our outgoing Prime Minister and the last Prime Minister of this foul, asset stripping and corrupt oligharcy that has ruined everything good about this country since…

    The 2023-24 Premier League season has come and gone, and I have mixed feelings about it. It was certainly one of the absolute maddest and best seasons from an entertainment point of view, with points deductions, goals scored and goals conceded galore. Indeed, this season featured the most goals in Premier League history, even considering…
