It’s ‘Day & Age’s birthday! That’s right, eleven years ago today, The Killers released this quirky little masterpiece into the world, and us Victims are all the better for it. Eleven years on, ‘Day & Age’ still remains a solid album across the board, with synth-pop and new wave vibes…

Pokémon Sword: My first impressions
It’s here, it’s finally here! Pokémon Sword is first game I’ve ever pre-ordered, and thus the first game I’ve ever played on the day of release. Thankfully, after months and months of waiting, filled with anticipation – the game isn’t a disappointment. In fact, it’s wonderful! Embarking on a brand…
My quest for the elusive Dragon Age: Inquisition platinum trophy
Dragon Age: Inquisition is one of my favourite games of all time, so naturally I had to aim to achieve the pretty, sparkling platinum trophy; to cherish forever on my digital cabinet.

Can you believe it’s been two whole years since ‘reputation’ was released? That’s right, Swifties, today is ‘reputation’s birthday; Taylor Swift’s equivalent of dying your hair black and going through an angsty teenage phase (and I mean that in the best way possible).

Pokémon Sword and Shield leaks: What we know
Update: The games are out! Check out my initial impressions right here! Have you heard? No, Brexit hasn’t been revoked. No, nor did the almost equally rage-inducing Poké-Brexit (sorry guys, looks like you aren’t making the cut into the next game). Buuuuut something exciting in the realm of Galar…
Maleficent becomes the Mistress of Mediocrity as Disney’s sequel magic wears thin
Before we begin, I just wanna say that I LOVE Sleeping Beauty. Like, to the point that I know it word for word and it’s my favourite Disney movie of all time. There’s just something about the art style, the dynamic villain and the whimsical setting that resonates with me.…
