When I played…Blade Runner

As part of the site’s 15-year anniversary, I’m doing a few articles looking back at games I covered for FFG in the early days. They’re not the usual reviews or discussion pieces but hopefully you might find them interesting. The first piece, with a bit more explanation, can be found here, and all of the […]

When I played…multiplayer games

This is the second piece of a series of articles I’m doing about some of the games I covered for FFG in our earliest days. It’s a way of looking back at those games, at the site, and at my own gaming history, as part of the site’s 15-year anniversary. The first piece, and a […]

When I played…Wing Commander III

Somehow we’ve been going 15 years, and without wanting veer too much into the area of excessive self-congratulation, we figured it’d be nice to mark the occasion somehow. As regular readers will know, we’re not the most frequently updated of sites, and so any time spent looking back at, and/or rehashing, old content is time […]

Review of the year: 2015

Hello there. So 2015 is over, and it’s time to once again take a look back at the year on FFG. This time last year, my stated intentions were to try and fulfil some old and long standing requests and also to add something of note to the strategy section. We managed to do okay […]

FFG in 2014

Hello. Just popping back in with our traditional look back at the past 12 months. (It may not be very useful to you, the reader, but it helps old fellas like us keep track of things, as the years increasingly blur into each other, weeks and months seemingly pass in the blink of an eye, […]

FFG Review of the Year: 2013

Hello everyone. With the year drawing to a close, it’s time to take a quick look back at all things FFG in 2013. In terms of content, things were pretty quiet during the early months, as the not-inconsiderable task of porting content from the old site to the new one took up the bulk of […]

The heroes of 2012

Happy New Year! As it’s the season for continuing unwelcome traditions, here’s my annual roundup of the year in FFG-land. [Yay! – a reader]. Overall, we managed a reasonably steady stream of content across the year, roughly on a par with what we’ve produced in previous years (with the exception of the magical, industrious 2007, […]

FFG review of the year: 2011

Hello there! I hope you had a good Christmas and New Year, and whatever else you had planned. All the holiday fun is nearly over, but there’s just enough time for my traditional look back at the last year on FFG. And you thought you’d missed it. [More like, “hoped you weren’t doing it” – […]

10 Years On: Part II

As we may have mentioned, it’s our birthday. And, boy, are we dragging it out. I’ve been meaning to write this piece for quite a while now, but if I procrastinate too much longer, the anniversary year will be over. (Apologies in advance if any of the following sounds po-faced, serious and self-important!) I’d like […]

10 years on

So, we’ve managed ten years of this humble little site. We’ve never been quite as productive as the ideal I hold in my head, but we have in total churned out a lot of reviews of PC games from the past. I hope you’ve found our writing to be useful and interesting. Anyway tho, Rik […]
