  • Well there’s a big question, but I’ll try to be brief. I’ve got a shelf full of DVDs and a folder on my PC with many gigabytes worth.

    Billy Connolly is an all-time favourite from my early years of random. Seen him 3 times. Stewart Lee, Maria Bamford (saw her live last year), Sarah Millican, Doug Stanhope, Bill Bailey*, Dylan Moran, The Umbilical Brothers*, Lano and Woodley* are all great. (* Also seen live)

    Some lesser known more recent comics I’ve discovered from the stand-up comedy subreddit are Chris Higgins, Django Gold, and Mike Baldwin. They’re all pretty unique and great.

    This list could be ten times longer.

    800 Pound Gorilla and Dry Bar Comedy are a couple of good YouTube channels for discovering new comics.








  • I played the first of the reboot series, and enjoyed it well enough, but it was mostly just a fairly bog-standard third person shooter. The really cool parts were the puzzles in the actual tombs but they were too few and far between. I got the other two free on EGS at some pint, but have yet to play them.

    However, the isometric games Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light and Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris are excellent and I’ve played them a couple of times each. The second one is fun in couch co-op as well. They both run brilliantly on the Steam Deck as well. Check 'em out.

    Edit: Just looked on Steam and they’re both currently 85% off until the 11th of November. I can’t think of a better deal right now. Links added
