Brands Hatch has the best views in UK motorsport
I went to Brands Hatch this weekend to see some of the action at the 50th Formula Ford Festival. I stopped by the same event back in 2018, but after a few more years visiting more circuits, I can safely say that Brands Hatch is the absolute best when it...
Razer Huntsman Tournament Edition keyboard review
It’s been a few months since I delved into the world of mechanical keyboards for the first time with the Razer Huntsman Tournament Edition - a little black number with a hugely customisable LED setup and super-responsive keys. Having used it extensively for everything from gaming, to work, to writing...
Gran Turismo 3 retrospective: Progression and reward
With Gran Turismo 7 on the horizon, I thought now seemed like a good time to revisit an earlier game in the series. The last entry I played at any length was Gran Turismo 3, the then-next-gen PS2 title that hit the shelves in 2001, so I fired up the...
Running is like F1 for your feet
A few years ago, I did a lot of running. I’d wake up early in the week and head out for an hour or so, then go even further on weekends. Part of my reason for running was the therapeutic element - it was the only time I’d be alone...
eFootball 2022 is no match for PES
eFootball 2022 rang alarm bells as soon as it was announced. Gone was Pro Evolution Soccer, the stalwart of slower, more considered football gaming. In its place we were to be given a free-to-play, cross-platform title in the form of eFootball. The change, the skeptics warned, was a downgrade designed...
Transport Fever 2 review
Let’s face the facts: Transport Fever 2 is a lot like Transport Tycoon. You’re dropped into a map dotted with small towns, resources, and factories and tasked with building the road, rail, sea, and air infrastructure that connects them to help the world’s economy to develop. With the same scenario...
What if Football Manager was a tabletop game?
What if Football Manager wasn’t a computer game you play alone in front of a screen until the early hours of the morning, but a physical product you could reach out an touch with your hands? Maybe even an activity you could do - dare I say it - with...
Transport Fever 2: What Production, Shipment, and Transport really mean
In my Transport Fever 2 review I wrote about the how the game sometimes frustrates by leaving you guessing as to why a line isn’t working or a factory isn’t producing goods. Three key metrics - Production, Shipment, and Transport - are the root cause of many of these annoying...
Visiting Thruxton for BTCC and Formula 4
With the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic somewhat reduced thanks to the UK’s vaccination programme, I decided to make the most of the last of the summer sun and head down to Thruxton to see some racing, see some family, and generally just do something that didn’t involve sitting in...
Transport Fever 2: How to fix a broken shipping line
If you’ve read my review of Transport Fever 2, you’ll know that one of the most frustrating parts of the game is when there’s a problem but it doesn’t tell you what’s wrong or how to fix it. And none of these is more frustrating than when you find yourself...
