An Xbox gamer since 2002, I bought the big black box just to play Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee. I have since loved every second of the 360's life and am now just as obsessed with the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S - mostly with the brilliant indie scene that has come to the fore. Gamertag is neil363, feel free to add me to your list.

Tetris Effect: Connected Review

At the end of the day, Tetris Effect: Connected on Xbox is just Tetris. It’s the game we’ve all played a million times over, it’s a game we all know like the back of our hand, and it’s a game in which we can rack up the highest of highscores with our eyes closed. And that, that feel of familiarity, is quite possibly the only thing that is holding Connected back from utter greatness. Yes this version looks great, it plays brilliantly, it sounds awesome, and it could well be the best Tetris experience yet, but at the end of the day it’s still Tetris... yet is still as stupidly addictive as it ever was.

Kid Tripp brings cheap autorunning to Xbox One, Series X|S and PC with Xbox Play Anywhere

We first stumbled upon Kid Tripp back in 2018, wandering towards the Four Horses booth at EGX and being drawn in by the old school platforming of Miles and Kilo and wowed by the nonstop autorunning of Kid Tripp. These were games that we kept going back to time and time again across the course of the event and after seeing the former drop onto Xbox One in the early stages of 2019, Four Horses have now got round to pushing the latter out to Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC, with Xbox Play Anywhere capabilities bringing everything together.
