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.

Smash and bash retro style with some free Rock of Ages 3 DLC

Rock of Ages has allowed players to smash, bash, crash and roll their way through multiple stages over the years, with great humour and fun accompanying every tale.

Pull off a backhand smash as Tennis World Tour 2 hits out on Xbox One, PS4 and PC

We won't beat around the bush - the original Tennis World Tour failed to hit the promised heights when it first launched, needing many a fix and amendment to even put it into the realms of consideration. But that was way back in 2018 and here and now in 2020 the sequel is looking to provide a much more rounded, more equipped tennis experience. With a new team in place, and NACON and Big Ant Studios now pulling the shots, there is much hype for the new big-hitter on the block as Tennis World Tour 2 releases on Xbox One, PS4 and PC.
