Triple Threat I: Marathon/Blue Prince/Switch 2 Reveal

Somehow, we’re only two weeks into April. A lot has happened! I’m introducing a new feature called Triple Threat, where I pick and discuss three topics. For the premiere, here are my thoughts on Marathon, Blue Prince, and the Nintendo Switch 2 reveal. No Zombies? How diverse. I am working on a Shattered Veil video review, which will be out …

Predicting the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct

Years and years of speculation are nearly over; we’re roughly 24 hours out from the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct. I’ve been anticipating an upgrade to the Switch since the Switch Pro/OLED fiasco, so it’s about damn time! The upside of waiting so long is that I’ve saved the odd £20 here and there for the past 3 or 4 years.  …

If We Shatter the Veil, It Could All Make Sense

The Mansion, no more. Shattered Veil is the name of Season 3’s Zombies map. It’s not a name anyone predicted, but it immediately made my head race with possibilities. I like it a lot! The name has inspired me to dig up the script of a theory video I buried a few months ago (I had too much to say …

Richtofen’s Mansion (Shattered Veil Teaser Analysis)

It’s hard to believe, but the third post-launch map of Black Ops 6 Zombies is already on the way. This means it’s time for some predictions, teaser analysis, and my thoughts on why I believe this is the map the story of BO6 Zombies has been waiting for. Much of the goodwill from the launch period has evaporated, as is …

BO6 Zombies: Strikes, Skins and Season 3

Despite finishing my thirty-minute review of The Tomb last week, I still had more to say, which is no real surprise if you know me. I figured I’d scribble down a few more thoughts about Black Ops 6 Zombies and where we stand as of Season 2.5. The review is here if you haven’t watched it: Generative A-WHY? I know …

Predicting the Nintendo Switch 2 Reveal (if it happens)

Now, at the end. Is it time? If the latest rumours are accurate, Nintendo will FINALLY reveal the successor to the Nintendo Switch tomorrow. I’ve been vocal in my disappointment over Nintendo’s 2024.  Outside of the incredible Emio: The Smiling Man, I had little to get excited about. I’ve been waiting for new hardware for a long time. Do I …

115 Day Update

Happy 115 Day! To honour the momentous occasion, I’ve given the Aetherium Anonymous poster a bloody twist. It felt fitting. The news of a new Zombies map so soon after the launch of Citadelle Des Morts is massive. We’ll potentially be playing DLC 2 by the end of January—it’s crazy! In the back of my mind, I hoped Treyarch might …

The Shutter Paw Awards 2024: Top 10 Games of the Year

2024 is all wrapped up, so it’s time for the inevitable end-of-year list. I’ve enjoyed a lot of different things this year, so there are some additional awards alongside my top ten. Enjoy! 10: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Like the man himself, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle makes it by the skin of its teeth! Despite my …
