This is a post that some of you might be surprised to read. But I’m writing this to declare my intention to shift my daily tech usage away from Windows PCs and back to the Mac. Most of my readers might not know this, but shortly before I started this blog back back in 2012,…
Those of you that follow me on X or YouTube, have likely noticed that I have updated my branding and promo art over the last several weeks. This has been done in anticipation of the following announcement: Effective immediately, my gaming livestreams have moved from Twitch to Rumble. This is a decision that has been…
Ever since I started this blog I’ve always made it a point to campaign against piracy. It should go without saying that I, like so many of my readers, love video games. And aside from a few indie titles, the majority of games are created by big development companies. These companies spend a huge amount…
2021 was an odd year for the site. In terms of gaming, progress on my backlog was slower than in previous years, but still fairly steady. Several of the games I played and reviewed were chock full of content and took quite a while to digest. Despite this, a number of them were Class A…

A few months ago, when I completed my initial playthroughs for the PS1/N64 era, I introduced the “Retro Flashback” series of articles on this site. This was my way to sort of play catch up before starting to dive into the next generation of gaming. So far, I’ve covered the golden age of video games…
It’s official. I’m on Twitch! I’ve updated the “Stream” button at the top of the site with a link to my official Twitch page. But you can also follow this link: OldGameHermit on Twitch! At this time, my streaming schedule is pretty inconsistent. I typically stream on weekdays between the hours of 2:00-4:00pm EST. I hope…
