Games that have Great Replayability

In my experience, Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Fallout 4, The Sims (any of them, even the spin-offs like The Urbz - played that multiple times), Rollercoaster Tycoon (number 3 was my favourite) and Black & White, these games are great for playing multiple playthroughs with different play styles. I’m sure there are more but I’ll be here forever typing otherwise, so I’ll leave it there. New Game+ mode offers an extended experience of a game for those who want new unlockables, new story quests that are only available in New Game+, new locations added and more, so sometimes it’s worth checking out. I’ve listed below some games that feature New Game+:

• Marvel’s Spider-Man
• Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales
• Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
• Horizon: Zero Dawn
• Horizon: Forbidden West
• Far Cry 5
• Far Cry: New Dawn
• Far Cry 6
• Assassin’s Creed: Shadows
• Metro Exodus
• Assassin’s Creed: Mirage
• Days Gone
• Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

True Crime: New York City Review (Game Reviews) (Reviews)

 Review by Warren Woodhouse

Rating: 10 Stars

Unlike some of the games I’ve played in my lifetime so far, True Crime: New York City was the most fun I’ve had in my teenage years. It has the most interesting and the useful character progression system in gaming, it’s nuts - the story branches out into multiple stories if you fail a story mission. Those details we never see in any games since then. Love the developers for making every effort count. You guys will be remembered for those moments and for leaving a lasting memory in my heart. Highly recommend this PS2 classic for any new or older veteran gamers alike.

Apple iOS 26 Update Review (Reviews) (Phone Update Reviews)

Review by Warren Woodhouse

Rating: 3 Stars

Apple’s latest update, iOS 26, called Liquid Glass, has made the app icons look blurry, images appearing disoriented and according to more than one source, the new update also causes battery drain on iPhones, no surprise here since this has happened in the past.

There is no shortage of surprises with Apple each year, sometimes they are unexpected. In a long line of annoying and less useful updates, this one takes the biscuit.

I hope if Apple are reading this that they’ll fix these issues or at least implement a feature that allows users to select older icons and features if we prefer them instead of the recent updated designs.

Disneyland Paris Holiday 2025 (Holidays) (Journal) (Travel)

• Dates: 18th September 2025 to 20th September 2025
• Photos and Videos By: Warren Woodhouse

I went on holiday to Disneyland Paris with my sister Kirsty, my brother in law Sean and my niece Heidi. I took loads of photos, went on loads of rides and coasters, done two character meet ups with Darth Vader from Star Wars and Olaf from Frozen, had two fine dining experiences as well - one was fine dining lunch at I’Auberge de Cendrillon and we got to meet different Disney Princesses too and the next day we had a fine dining breakfast buffet at Plaza Gardens, both are in Disneyland Paris. We’ve all had a great time on our holiday.

Captain Marvel Statue at the bay near the Spider-Man Pumpkin

Plaque dating the opening of EuroDisney (which I remember it was called during my childhood visits to the park more than 30 years ago)

Gate to Walt Disney Studios area of the park

Hollywood Tower

Sneak peek at the new Frozen area being built near the Hollywood Tower. Very secretive about it but a little glimpse of it from this angle for you super fans

Me (on the left) and my sister Kirsty (on the right), our scores during the Spider-Man Web Academy ride over in the Avengers area

The Fountain near the park’s entrance is pretty cool

It has this old timey vibe which I love

The architecture is always impressive

Old timey Mickey sign is cute

My niece, Heidi, wanted me to take some photos of Pumba spiny thing

Genie from Aladdin

The Castle, always an iconic view

We had fine dining lunch at I’Auberge de Cendrillon

I had for my appetiser: Duck pâté en croûte with apricot and ginger

I had for my main course: Beef and red wine casserole

I had for my dessert: Warm chocolate fondant

Beanstalk near a shop

Dumbo Elephant ride

It’s a Small World! My childhood favourite ride

Hyperspace Mountain. When I was younger, I was far too small to go on it, being that I was 3 foot 5 in height at the time.

Me and Sean got lost in the labyrinth of footpaths in the Adventure Isle area of the park. The bridge (in the south west corner of the map) was closed during our trip, making it difficult to navigate the area

Thunder Mountain

This area of Adventure Isle looks a bit like Agrabah from Aladdin

I would of liked it if they designed the topiaries to look like Mickey Ears

The Cave under the Castle is pretty cool

This area of the park hasn’t changed much since the last time I visited

Spider-Man Pumpkin, pretty cool

20th September 2025 at 8:35 am

The next stop for my fine dining experience is a breakfast buffet at Plaza Gardens

Moody lighting

I shall eat your rubbish! A bin that kind of looks like a face

Bought myself some Mickey Ears

Love the tile designs

The lettering is pretty cool

Lightbulb moment
