Some news from James and the team this morning. Thank you all for your support over the past 10 years. ♥️
Pass the Controller farewell message - After almost 10 years of bringing you gaming reviews, features, and even the odd video, the time has come to say farewell to Pass the Controller. It’s a project I’m extremely proud of, and I owe a lot of it to the dedicated team who have helped along the way. Chris and Liam in particular have been instrumental in keeping things going the past few years, and the contributions from Sam and Rob and every writer we’ve worked with over the years shouldn’t go unrecognised.Why now? With changes in all our lives and the media landscape of gaming there’s not been the time to do as much as we’d like to, and so the time is right to bow out gracefully. Perhaps one day PTC will return, but for now, we really appreciate every second of the time you gave to us. It’s been fun. James and Team PTC

Original IP is essential to our industry, so I’m thrilled that the development of OD is in full swing thanks to the talented team at Kojima Productions and their creative collaborators. youtu.be/eHCqxLtwy5g

So, here it is, possibly the longest piece I've written, all about my thoughts on The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom for @pass_controller. I've not had the greatest success completing Zelda games, and this was no different from a time point of view (over 2 years!). Enjoy

If you were wondering why things are a bit quiet at the moment. Stay tuned for more Team Talk coming soon.

So we haven't got a lot of sleep recently since a tiny girl came into our lives. For all the parents out there, I have a whole new level of respect and admiration for you, for those trying – hang in there, it will be worth it. We are so lucky and couldn't be happier.
