I have been playing games since a very early age, thanks to my Dad's encouragement. I've been an Xbox gamer since the very beginning, the Master Chief is to thank for that. I'm also a big Nintendo geek, and my other half is a PlayStation nut. I'll play pretty much anything in any genre (although FIFA and COD maybe pushing it).

How will Studio Closures Affect Xbox? – TheXboxHub Official Podcast #200

No, we can’t quite believe it either. This week TheXboxHub Official Podcast hits a major milestone. Episode 200! As the guys get over the bewilderment of how they got here and reminisce about their favourite moments, there’s also a big news week to dig into.

Little Kitty, Big City Review

Little Kitty, Big City is an utterly charming adventure while it lasts.

Sker Ritual Review

There’s certainly room for improvement, but Sker Ritual is an enjoyable zombie horde shooter that will appeal to fans of the genre.

Get 10 Quest Review – Gotta Match ‘Em All

Get 10 Quest is a brilliant little game which will only cost you a few pennies. For this reason it can be forgiven for being feature light, but at its core it’s amongst the best puzzlers around.

Roombo: First Blood Review – Don’t Push it

Despite nearly showing its entire hand from the start, Roombo: First Blood on Xbox remains original and hilarious in light of all the bloodshed.

Butterfly Review – They Grow Up So Fast

Butterfly on Xbox is an average puzzle platformer that doesn’t do enough to catch your eye. It will only set you back a few quid, but doesn’t do enough to stand out from the crowd.

Looking Back to 2001 with Paper Mario – Flat Out Fun

As it turns out, there’s a lot more to Mario than collecting coins and sliding down flagpoles.

Spacebase Startopia Preview – Welcome to the Ultimate Space Resort

Spacebase Startopia on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S is shaping up to be a management sim in the truest sense. It's got a few small twists thrown in there too, however it’s looking set to be one to watch for fans of the genre.

Bonkies Review – Look At These Adorable Space Monkeys

Bonkies on Xbox is a charming puzzle game at heart, which is best enjoyed with friends. It’s not without its niggles, however there’s a genuinely enjoyable experience on offer here which will appeal to gamers of all ages.

Spirit Arena Review – “Please Sir, I Want Some More”

Spirit Arena on Xbox will challenge you whilst providing plenty of unlockables to go after, if that’s your thing. This doesn’t stop it from being loads of fun, but it’s all over so quickly. I’m unashamedly asking for more, but right now, there's no reason not to check this one out.

Looking Back to 2016 with the Resident Evil Zero HD Remaster – Origins of Evil

I view Resident Evil Zero and the 2016 Remaster as a bit of an oddity in the series, the black sheep if you will. It tried something a bit different, and in the end did so with limited success.

Get Over Here Review – Will You Be Hooked?

The repetitive gameplay and unrefined controls of Get Over Here on Xbox make it very difficult to enjoy. It’s cheap, and throws a fair bit into the mix, but despite this it will struggle to get its hooks into you.

Guntastic Review – Blink and You’ll Miss It

Guntastic on Xbox is a well-designed, fun little game, if only for a limited time. However, its hampered replayability along with a lack of depth, put up against a not insignificant price tag, makes it difficult to recommend.

BFF or Die Review – Teamwork Makes the Dream Work

BFF or Die on Xbox is clearly best played with friends, but the inclusivity of a single player mode is welcome, despite being less enjoyable. It’s lacking compared to some other party games out there, but it will provide a couple of hours of fun to those prepared to give it a chance.

Freddy Spaghetti Review – Twist and Shout

Although short and simple, Freddy Spaghetti on Xbox is also a bit mad, making it fun to play for the most part. The levels can be hit and miss, however you can’t help wanting to stick with Freddy to see his adventure through to the end.

Drunken Fist Review – A Walk of Shame

Drunken Fist is built on a very thin foundation, executed in poor taste, and poorly created in general. It's very much what I imagine a drunken brawl to be like. Slow, painful and not particularly enjoyed by anyone.

Georifters Review – Shape Your World One Building Block at a Time

Georifters is fun for a time, and packs in plenty of levels. However, the gameplay shows its hand early on, and struggles to develop from there. It throws in some new bits and bobs as you play, but soon it becomes quite repetitive, and the levels start to feel like a bit of a grind.

Wonder Blade Review – A Cut Above the Rest?

Wonder Blade on Xbox is inconsistently fun. The wildly contrasting difficulty and bumpy pacing makes the experience feel slightly disjointed, however it’s all wrapped up in a way that will no doubt bring a smile to the most miserable of faces.
