With the recent announcement of #TombRaider creating the Unified Timeline, I took it upon myself to try and theorise how the new timeline would look... thomasclement.net/2021/08/08/tom…

24th April is a special date for me, as it is the 10th Anniversary of my website. I’ve been analysing/discussing #games for over a decade! It's been a fun ten years, and so I thought to take the chance to look back at some of my favourite pieces... thomasclement.net/2026/04/24/my-…

For the last year I have been working through a backlog of games that I never played before. One of those games was "Secret Service", supposedly one of the worst games ever made. I couldn't wait to write about it... thomasclement.net/2026/02/18/sec… #games #writing #WorstGameEver

New Post for 2026! It's the 20th Anniversary of one of my favourite games, the weird and wonderful Fahrenheit (Indigo Prophecy), a murder mystery game created by Quantic Dream, the same team as Detroit: Become Human... thomasclement.net/2026/01/17/fah… #gamewriting #retrospective

When learning a new language, general wisdom says to immerse yourself fully with books, films and TV. So I took that challenge with games, specifically #AssassinsCreed #Valhalla, and played through the whole game in German... thomasclement.net/2025/11/03/lea… #LanguageLearning #Gaming

With the recent #Netflix release of #SplinterCellDeathwatch, I felt it was time to rank the best levels from the entire Splinter Cell series... thomasclement.net/2025/10/18/the… #gaming #tomclancy

In the run-up to the #MafiaTheOldCountry release I played back through the rest of the series and found myself tackling one of the biggest conspiracy theories in gaming; is Joe Barbaro alive? thomasclement.net/2025/09/01/joe… #gaming

After #StateOfPlay yesterday, I am fully on the hype-train for #FirstLight007, check out my breakdown of the trailer here... thomasclement.net/2025/06/05/007… #JamesBond #Games

New Post! After spending many months playing #TombRaider Remastered, I decided to go through all the games and give my ranking of the best levels in each entry. Have a read... thomasclement.net/2025/05/08/the… #Gaming #TombRaiderRemastered #LaraCroft

After seven hours of play time and 8000+ words later, have a read of my dissection of one of the most interesting shooters I've had the chance to play; Medal of Honor, fifteen years later... thomasclement.net/2025/03/07/med… #gaming #gamewriting #electronicarts

The Survivor Trilogy actually inverted the “Daddy Issues” storyline trope and gave some great character moments, but players just heard the word ‘dad’ and immediately drew conclusions and still base their criticism on it… thomasclement.net/2020/10/30/a-d…

Unpopular opinion about Survivor trilogy?

A look back at the last time Sean Connery played James Bond, in a video game... thomasclement.net/2024/12/16/the… #gaming #jamesbond #007 #SeanConnery

@StoryEverPod Tried it. Really wanted to like it. But I always felt the “open-world” and collectibles that improved your abilities hampered my fun. The gameplay rewards for aggressive pushes, but after 2 minutes of fun I spend the next 20 minutes backtracking. It just made me lose interest.

Recently I finished Wolfenstein: The New Order. Who else has played it? What did you think of it?

Hey, I’m on the other website too, see you over there!

A post that I've been working on for a bit (and might actually be the longest article I've written!), an analysis of Assassin's Creed's first character: Altaïr Ibn-La’Ahad... thomasclement.net/2024/10/19/alt…

With the announcement and teaser at Gamescom a few weeks ago of a new Mafia title, "The Old Country", I had to write down my thoughts and speculate about the game... thomasclement.net/2024/09/03/tho… #MafiaTheOldCountry #Hanger13

With the closure of the Xbox 360 online marketplace last month, a whole host of games were lost into the digital wasteland. Here's the story of one such game, and it could be the closest thing to The Office: The Game as we got... thomasclement.net/2024/08/21/off… #games #writing #xbox

It's been a while since I posted a new article, but after playing Alba: A Wildlife Adventure I knew I had to write about it... thomasclement.net/2024/06/28/alb… #Alba #ustwo #gamewriting

Now that some time has passed since #CallofDuty #ModernWarfare3 released, I did a deep-dive retrospective across the entire trilogy's campaign... thomasclement.net/2024/02/03/cal…
