My Top 10 Games of 2025

Last year I’d played so few that-year-released games that I had to put compilations and remakes all over the list, this year I’m happy to say there are no compilations and while entry #10 is two-thirds remaster it does have one-third entirely new game as well, so this is a much better look at games I’ve played in 2025 actually FROM 2025. I’m pretty sure Dynasty Warriors: Origins and Donkey Kong Bananza would’ve made it as well, but the former didn’t immediately appeal (due to going against what I like from DW games) and just hasn’t dropped in price all year and the other is a consequence on me only getting a Switch 2 for Christmas and only have so much free time! With that all said, let’s take a look!

My Top 10 Doctor Who Stories of 2025

2025 wasn’t a great year for Doctor Who. The actual TV show didn’t have a lot of highlights and was straight up hated on by a rather unpleasant part of the “fandom” and Big Finish audios didn’t do a great job of picking up the slack, though at least there were SOME highlights throughout the year, and the new on-going Ninth Doctor / Rose and Thirteenth Doctor ranges have been welcome additions… So let’s take a look, oh and I’ll point out that once again I haven’t listened to the December Big Finish releases yet (bar “Dare You”) so if any of those really stand out then, um… oh well!

My Top 10 TV Series/Seasons of 2025

While another rough time in my life has curtailed my enthusiasm for review writing I have managed to assemble enough motivation to keep my streak of yearly Top 10s going! I think more than any other category I’m always wondering if I’ve even watched enough new TV to make a top 10, but each year I just about manage it, almost entirely due to my love of animation to be fair… so let’s take a look!

My Top 10 Games of 2024

I knew going in that 2024 might be a bit more of a lean year game-wise, but thanks to games like Star Wars: Outlaws just disappointing me (to the point of an extremely rare giving up halfway through and selling it scenario) and the latest Assassin’s Creed game, normally good for an early Top 10 placement, getting delayed to next year it’s more lean than I’d imagined. Plus due to its length and having already played through a similarly-lengthy Atlus RPG a few months earlier I haven’t played Metaphor: Refantazio, nor have I played Astro Bot, two games that dominated most Top Games lists elsewhere. It’s so bad I’ve thrown in a few compilation re-releases to make up the Top 10, something I really didn’t want to do but a “Top 7” just sounds weird, so… Hey-ho. Also every game this year is either a sequel or a remake, so either I’m getting old and refusing to look into new things or the business has really gotten lazy… Either way, let’s take a look!

My Top 10 Doctor Who Stories of 2024

For the first time in many years I haven’t actually gotten around to listening to all the Big Finish releases this years, thanks in part to falling behind due to the new website/app disaster from a few months ago. So if any of December’s releases end up being better than my Number 10 pick… bugger. With that being said it’s also been a few years since we’ve had a year with a full Series of Doctor Who airing, so at least there’s a greater pool of stories to choose from! Let’s take a look…

My Top 10 TV Series/Seasons of 2024

It’s been an odd year for TV for me, thanks to playing a lot of long-form games and having a lot less free time in general there have been shows I’d normally have watched but I never got round to, like the second seasons of Arcane or Squid Game (though that only coming out a few days ago meant it never really had a chance…) That being said, there were still some shows I enjoyed but didn’t make the cut, like Agatha All Along or Star Wars: Tales of the Empire, so I guess it can’t be all bad. Also reminder: this is what I’ve enjoyed the most, not necessarily what has contained the best acting or anything like that… With that out of the way, let’s take a look!

My Top 10 Games of 2023

There have been a lot of years with the “Top 10 Games of 2023” where I’ve had to put one or two on that barely count just to make up the ten but this year I made a full ten quite easily, and had a rough time picking what should be Number 1. Also like prior years there is a major game missing, this time Baldur’s Gate III as it’s just not the kind of genre / game I like to play, so you’ll just have to excuse its absence here. As I always say, this is my top 10 of the games I’ve played, so there are bound to be games I just don’t have the time to play (especially as I like playing plenty of older games too!) So with that said, let’s take a look!

My Top 10 Doctor Who Stories of 2023

I always enjoy the Top 10 Doctor Who story list I do each year, I believe unlike the lists either side that It’s pretty unique to this site. 2023 was a tough year to fill out the bottom and middle because a lot of stories were “very good” but only three or so I actually gave a full 5 to. Interested in which ones landed where? Let’s take a look!

My Top 10 TV Series/Seasons of 2023

Another year, another Top 10 TV series / seasons list! Although I’ve been enjoying Season 2 of What If…? It failed to make the cut, which makes this the first list since Disney + started that an MCU show hasn’t made it on here somewhere, which is a shame, but there you go. At least anime and Star Wars had me covered! Let’s take a look…

Ranking the Doctor Who Multi-Doctor Stories

After a lengthy “catch up marathon” it’s time for the main event, on today the 60th Anniversary of Doctor Who’s first episode going live, I’m going to rank all 43 multi-Doctor stories I could find (not including short stories, as there was a surprising amount of them and so few are actually easy to find, and not including stories where two version of the SAME Doctor feature, as that’s still technically multiple Doctors but not in the way I mean…) Now the key thing here is I’m not ranking them on anything other than being a good multi-Doctor story, and by that I mean having fun multi-Doctor interactions and more often than not, some good anniversary stuff as well. So while some stories lower down on the list are clearly better than some higher that most likely means that the multi-Doctor aspect was only a small part of it. Make sense? Good. Let’s rank ‘em!
