the little man has grown a lot over the past 7 months, so I'm now taking my final paternity leave to spend my summer with him. I've gotta train him ready for Arsenal's Hale End 😉 I won't be on here as often as usual over the coming months, but I'll be back fully in September 🫡
I won’t be as active on here for a couple of months, as I’m taking some time off to look after a new arrival 👶🍼

in the recent Halo: Campaign Evolved preview, Halo Studios accidentally left some unfinished cinematics in the PC build. I’m not going to spoil any of them, but Halo fans are really gonna love one in particular 🙏

with all the talk of "radically different" console business models for Xbox, I think it was clear from Asha's Bloomberg interview that the future of Xbox consoles is OEM hardware. Why say Xbox will put out "great reference experiences" and hint at a Windows future if not
