Nacon do some great games, but I've never encountered a game that is unplayable (for me) just because of a sound effect. Overpass 2 simulates damage to your vehicle with a sound that is a cross between nails down a blackboard and a dentists drill. I just can't stand it but it's such a shame as the game itself is pretty good (specially for 11.99 in the PSN sale). Please patch that shit out!

Yes please to new Silent Hill F. The setting sounds fantastic, the visuals are glorious and if it's anything like the recent remakes I'm definitely on board: https://youtu.be/Ag157nqMV0Q

Our gaming chat thread at work on Teams recommended "How Fish is Made" to me (as they think I like "out there" games) but I read the Steam Mature Content Description and now I'm a bit terrified.

"A Quiet Place" makes me think John C had noisy neighbours at some point, and dreamed up a fantastic science fiction story about wanting to see their grisly demise at the hands of aliens who don't like loud noises. My neighbour (and their annoying little yapdog) wouldn't last 5 seconds

My dentist, usually a lovely person does pee me off a bit when she says "oh, you grind your teeth!" Like it's something I could suddenly stop doing after a lifetime of doing it. If I could stop, I would, and no thank you I do not want to pay you a grand for a mouthguard

We managed about 10-12 miles this weekend in two separate hikes. One place we've been several times before (around Abingdon and the surrounding countryside which is nice and flat) and one place we hadn't (around Stoke Rowe where there were quite a few hills and a lot of quagmires). BUT the boots got walked in nicely, so I'll chalk that up as a win even though my calf muscles are definitely barking at me this morning.

Morning food delivery was crazy early this morning which means I now have a whole day for a hike. Determined to crack around 8 miles today as I've not done anything like that for a while so on with the boots!

Back to the dentist again. Thankfully the agony I’ve been in from last week has subsided a lot thanks to antibiotics but I suspect there will be some hideous expensive torture on the horizon…

Not a next-fest thing but someone put me onto Rustler (Grand Theft Horse) - a medieval GTA-Alike that just has exactly my sense of humour. Works on the 'deck - but is a bit pricey on steam (£33) - Hunt around for cheaper keys elsewhere. Loads of fun though. Capping knights with a crossbow to gangster tunes mixed with madrigals = WIN!

This comes up a lot at work. People ask me why I still play videogames "At my age" and I'm always surprised that there's still a perception that games are purely for kids / young people, and that us eldsters are somehow lacking the brain power or manual dexterity to be able to cope with games any more. I'm fairly sure that I'll still be playing them well into my 60s, 70s, 80s or however long I live. I'm also 100% sure I'll still get this question until I kick the bucket too.

Definitely my fave NextFest thing so far, the demo of "Deliver at all costs" is just awesome. Works nicely on the Steam Deck (though I'm tempted to pick it up on PS5 instead). Got that gorgeous 1950s vibe going on, a dark sense of humour. Kinda like pre-3D GTA with bells on and REALLY eggy NPCs! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1880610/Deliver_At_All_Costs/

I could just see the orange cockwomble telling Zelensky "Apology not accepted until you come here and kiss my shoe" with his little toady Vance standing behind him like all toadies do shouting "Kiss it, kiss it, kiss it!"

Mine gott! EA has actually FIXED SOMETHING! The recent 25th Anniversary editions of the Sims 1 and 2 now finally work on Steam Deck (and work very well too!) About bluddy time as they've been out for weeks! I still find it slightly disturbing that Bob Newbie bears a striking resemblance to me, though 25 years ago I would never have made the connection :)

Two of the best workout tunes (for me at least) are the themes to DandaDan and Sakamoto days. Both those tunes SLAP, baby!
