Nathan Ellingsworth - Freelancer For Hire

After surviving two waves of redundancy and the closure of The Loadout, my time at Network N looks to be coming to an end. I'm looking for new opportunities in journalism, copywriting or content creation. If you know of anything, my DMs are open!

Was there any doubt that IOI wouldn't deliver a banger? I'm already halfway through a second playthrough of #007FirstLight, and I can't get enough of those TacSims. Bond is back, folks.

pockettactics.comIndiana Jones and the Great Circle on Nintendo Switch 2 is a treat for the eyes, but not for the wristsIndiana Jones and the Great Circle on Switch 2 is one of the console's most ambitious ports to date, but so far, so fairly good, with a couple of notable exceptions.

Your Favourite Toy is a high energy, direct, fun record that feels like the sonic reset Foo's needed going forward. It may lack the emotional heft of BHWA, but it's a nice mix of their experimentation with Greg Kurstin and the band's earlier days #FooFighters
