Splatoon 3: Splatfest - Tricolor Turf War - Sturgeon Shipyard Map

This weekend just gone, August 27th and 28th 2022 was Splatoon 3's first Splatfest. It was free on Nintendo Switch to download. In this video i play through the new game mode, Tricolor Turf War. it was a little confusing how it worked, but it seems like you play a PvP game, the winners then have to battle against two losers from each other team. Hopefully the video will show off the mode as well as the new map it takes place in.

This weekend just gone, August 27th and 28th 2022 was Splatoon 3's first Splatfest. It was free on Nintendo Switch to download. In this video i play through two maps for Team Rock in the Turf War mode, a mode where the aim is to color the map in your team's color. Sit back and watch my team and I win and lose for Team Rock on Museum D Alfonsino and Mincemeat Metal Works maps.

Splatoon 3: Splatfest - Character Creation, Tutorial, and City Exploration Video

This weekend, August 27th and 28th 2022, is Splatoon 3's first Splatfest. It's free on Nintendo Switch to download. this video shows me going through the character creation, tutorial, and exploring the city of splatsville. There's no online multiplayer in this video as it was not on when i logged in. i assumed that it started today, 27th, but it appears that online multiplayer starts on the 28th in japan. 

Tokyo Game Show 2014

this won't be a succinct post like my previous news stories. but yes, after nearly a year, i am back. i did manage to get to japan, but this post isn't about that.

i have never been to a games event like Tokyo Game Show, or E3, or anything simular. i was offered the chance to do interviews at them but i never had the means, money, or both to actually go. but Tokyo Game Show was a hour or two in Chiba, yeh not actually in Tokyo or even close to the Tokyo boundaries...but Chiba game show lacks a certain sense of grandeur.

i went on the first public day, Saturday 20th...and wow...it left an impression for sure. it really turn out how i expected in some ways. i may not have been to a show before, but i've watched several on sites like GameSpot over the years to get some idea how it would be. i don't regret going, i will probably go again next year. just a word of advice, it's not a easy day out and don't be surprised if your leaving sooner than you think.

With A Heavy Heart, I'm Putting QTE Gamers On Hiatus

Yep, you read correctly. after nearly 5 years i'm putting the site on Hiatus.

it's not an easy decision and it's made me sad...but this does not mean i'm gone forever.

QTE Gamers started as something for me to do inbetween jobs. i never imagined it would go on as long as it did or get as big as it did. but times have changed since then. i'm in full time employment and have far less free time than i used to. also, i have accepted a job in Japan which starts in March which would make running the site near impossible with the hours and work i'd be doing.

i would like to thank everyone, from the readers to those in press...basically everyone who has been a huge help along the way. i have enjoyed myself soo much over the last years and if i could i would totally still be doing it. but i have to be realistic. i no longer have the time to do the things i wanted, the Podcast had to go by the wayside, so did other features i've tried.

the reason why the site will be on Hiatus and not gone completely is because i still have ideas and plans for it. the move to Japan could open up interesting opportunities for the site, for example we know there are a couple of sites that report news from Japan to the rest of the world, but there are fewer that report World game news to Japan. so that is an idea.

i'll leave the site up, the videos on Youtube will stay up too. i'm still toying with the idea of adding videos to Youtube. it may take a while to start that up again though.

this isn't goodbye forever, wish me luck on my Japanese adventure and i'll wish you all luck in each of your lives.
