I’m sinking deeper and deeper into holiday mode, which means Geoff has to crack the whip extra hard to get me to do any work. What, can’t a guy dream of all those carefree days he’s going to sink into defeating the almighty backlog? I have so much to play his holi… OW! Ok Geoff, I get it – back to work I go!

Worst Stories
You know Fifa, that game that’s all about football? According to Russian MP’s, it’s a whole lot of gay propaganda. Like, what?
A little while ago, Alessandro told me all about the new Pebble Time 2. I was sorely tempted to order it. I’m glad I didn’t though, because the device has now been cancelled, and right on the eve of its shipping too.
This isn’t a bad story per se, but it has received a mixed reception from the overall gaming community. Final Fantasy XV is getting a patch to fix some of its story, which some people aren’t happy with at all. Others? They get it, Square Enix are just looking to flesh out the story some more is all. What do you think?
