FEATURING DIGITISER’S MR BIFFO
Who is Paul Rose?
Paul is probably better known as Mr Biffo – the creator of legendary teletext games magazine Digitiser. These days, he mostly writes his videogame ramblings over at Digitiser2000.com. If you want more Biffo in your eyes, you can catch him as the host of Digitizer The Show at www.bit.ly/biffo2000.
Nintendohas done it again. As I write this, I’m obsessed with The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom. It’s the kind of game that reminds me: a) how much I love games, b) that Nintendo – when it’s on form – is still utterly peerless, and c) that all other games might as well give up and go home. There are moments in Tears that feel almost accidental, as if that world has been made for me and me alone. It’s a testament to the potential of games themselves, and – for my money – the greatest example of the form up to this point. It really does feel, to me, that this is where everything was leading.
