In today's episode, we have a very special guest, Matthew R. Reynolds.  I reached out to Matthew after reading his weekly email where he spoke about envy and jealousy. But the first half of our conversation focuses on his father and reclaiming ancestors.Matthew opens up about a longing he has carried with him throughout his life - a longing to know his father. As he shares his heartfelt desire to connect with his deceased father and explore the impact of his absence, we dive deep into the themes of internalized racial oppression and the capitalist system that perpetuates it.Matthew's father passed away from Emphysema and COPD, and to honor him, Matthew takes a moment to say his father's name out loud. We learn about his great-great-grandfather, who was a slave in Alabama, and how this past has strongly influenced his own father's life and subsequently Matthew's own.As the conversation unfolds, Amanda and Matthew share their experiences of connecting with their ancestors. Amanda reveals her deep connection with trees as her ancestors, while Matthew reflects on his Irish ancestry and the importance of standing by trees. The belief that we are all connected, made of stardust, forms the foundation of their discussion.As we journey through Matthew's exploration of his father's life, we also find ourselves transported to the awe-inspiring beauty of the big island of Hawaii where Matthew resides. But the conversation doesn't end there. Aminata and Matthew discuss dance and theater as a form of healing abuse, racism and intergenerational trauma.In the second half, Matthew reframes our perceptions of jealousy and envy. He encourages us to question the definition of success imposed upon us by society and to explore our own unique paths. Matthew also offers a powerful acronym for FAIL: "first attempt in learning." Matthew also emphasizes accountability as a positive in our journey towards authenticity. We all need supportive communities and coaches who can help us navigate our shadows and empower us to stay true to ourselves and achieve our fullest potential.Matthew also invites us to embrace difficulty and discomfort because they can lead us to profound personal and collective transformation. So, grab a cup of tea, find a comfortable spot, and join us as we explore the intertwined threads of ancestry, healing, and the complex emotions of envy and jealousy.

i took a spontaneous trip to the beach where i made the decision to take my gap year. let's reminisce with old friends about some full circle shit.

What is your truth? What are the systems that get in the way? And what will be your way to build unconditional belonging, nonetheless? In this episode we explore the sincere insights and genuinely beautiful approach of Matthew Reynolds to create a fundamental impact on the intersectionality of oppression (systems of racism, colonialism, sexism, capitalism). Matthew is a recent author, former teacher, artist. He is a facilitator and consultant in the DEI space with a deep perspective on the human experience, doing powerful, foundational work. He gracefully and bravely shares his own lived experiences that now inform his work to help people craft their own equity lens. An Equity lens is a tool crafted by the individual, utilising their own lived experiences. Ever evolving, as one meets new people, has new experiences, gains knowledge and wisdom, and recognizes what their own definition of antiracist work is. For the purpose of building unconditional belonging. A call to action. This means exploring: What is your truth? What does it mean for you to become your biggest, fullest and brightest? And equally offering others that personal dignity? What gets in the way? In this conversation we talk about spotting limiting beliefs as well as systems that are hurtful and harmful. To the point where you can calmly be in conversation and say, “No thank you. I don't subscribe to that ideology.” When you craft your own equity lens, you will have a tool for yourself that shifts your consciousness and truly changes the culture around you. And, big picture: shifts the consciousness of humanity.

“ I wanted the classroom to be based on the fact that first and foremost, bring everything you got. Bring all aspects of who you feel and think and believe yourself to be, because we're all constantly forming that idea, all trying to figure out who our authentic self is. So through that, I started to focus more on creating an actual pledge for each of my class periods. So instead of saying these are the rules, I had my students help create community in that particular class period and what that meant to them. So that's something that I've presented nationally on creating a pledge, a classroom pledge for each individual classroom.”-Matthew Reynolds In this episode of Control the Room, I had the pleasure of speaking with Matthew Reynolds about building a Diversity and Inclusion Consultancy, what inspired their strong point of view within the industry, and finding a sense of belonging growing up as a multiethnic, same gender, peaceful warrior in rural America.  We explore strategies for creating environments of humanity and shifting the consciousness of humanity.  We then discuss the distinction between acquaintance, friend, and close friend.  Listen in to question how much of your thinking is your own thinking.

On Monday, me and my filmmaking group "Some Guys With A Camera" were invited to screen our latest short film "Blackbird" at the Plaza Cinema in Liverpool, followed by a Q&A with the cast and crew. Blackbird is a 20 minute short film we shot on a minuscule budget in January/February and released in March online. Over the summer it received several nominations from international film festivals. The plot is "Liverpool, 1985. Trampled by Thatcherist society and the loss of her long-term boyfriend, nihilistic loner Mary-Kate turns to petty crime to climb the class ladder as an inner-city avenger." In the Q&A we had: Matthew Reynolds (writer and director), Phoebe Riding (lead actor who plays Mary-Kate), Conor O'Neill (producer and supporting actor), myself (producer and supporting actor), and Ugnius Gorbaciovas (lead actor who plays Vincent.) The film is available to view on Amazon Prime here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/video/detail/B08DK31XQZ/ If you would like to keep up with my filmmaking adventures, you can follow the Some Guys With A Camera page on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/someguyswithacamera/ If you enjoyed the podcast, you can follow the show on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/artimitateslifepodcast/ or buy me a coffee at https://www.buymeacoffee.com/artimitateslife.

Today's episode is a little bit different because it's a story I'm very much a part of. I talk to my brother Matthew Reynolds about how we set up our zero budget film company "Some Guys With A Camera" and how we went from making films in our house as kids, to getting nominated for three international film festivals. We look at why you don't have to have money to make a film and why passion and a creative story is better than making a short film "technically" perfect.

Some people ask why they should bother learning a language when there are online apps and websites which can translate quickly and accurately. In this episode of LinguaMania, Matthew Reynolds and Eleni Philippou argue that translation is so much more than just changing words from one language into another. Translation is creative, it's personal, and it can help build communities.

The Sonic the Hedgehog movie has had quite the journey - from its disturbing first reveal, which even Sonic's original creator wasn't happy with - to recently becoming a box office smash. But did we enjoy it? Join guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn), guides writer Lottie Lynn (twitter.com/StormScribe), and our tech team's Thomas Marchant(twitter.com/hippopothomas) to discuss editor Oli Welsh (twitter.com/OliWelsh), who called it a a charmless cut-and-paste job in our Sonic movie review. Though others came away with more positive impressions, we did all agree it's probably a better Dr Robotnik origin story than a Sonic one. If you haven't seen the movie yet, we keep what there is to spoil to a minimum - but do announce when we discuss those moments ahead of time.

We've been having a lovely time with Dreams, the Media Molecule game that's been in early access for almost a year, and in development before the PS4 was even revealed. Despite this, there are still questions about what Dreams is, and what you get and can do in the final game, so guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn), features editor Martin Robinson (twitter.com/vics_viper), senior staff writer (twitter.com/Clert) and Digital Foundry's Tom Morgan (twitter.com/cataferal) try and put them to bed - from its short story mode and how much that matters, to whether opening creations up to self publishing or other forms of funding would be a good idea. Also - we recorded this episode on Monday, a whole day before Martin's dream mentioned in the episode intro turned out to be true. I'm hoping he dreams about Shenmue 4 next. Of course, audio might not do the game justice, so here's some further reading from Eurogamer's coverage of Dreams to help: The Dreams campaign is stylish but... is that it?: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2020-02-12-the-dreams-campaign-is-stylish-but-is-that-it Why did Dreams take Media Molecule seven years to make?: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2020-02-14-why-did-dreams-take-seven-years-to-make The best Dreams games we've seen so far: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2020-02-19-best-dreams-games The Power of Dreams: Game Creation - How Does It Actually work? https://www.digitalfoundry.net/2020-02-15-the-power-of-dreams-game-creation-how-does-it-actually-work

Have you played Outer Wilds yet? You must! A glorious little solar system filled with dynamic forces! A time loop that encourages exploration! A puzzle to solve and a culture - several cultures - to uncover. And a game so good it was crowned Eurogamer's game of 2019. And yet some people have bounced off this game. The ship controls, the art style, the daunting task that lies ahead. In this week's podcast, guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) is joined by features editor Christian Donlan and USGamer's Jake Green (twitter.com/jake_k_green) to make the case for one of the most interesting games of, well, ever really - as well as a full spoiler discussion of our favourite moments and mysteries for those who have played it to the end. We have plenty of further reading for you this week, including two pieces from Donlan and Jake about the game: https://www.usgamer.net/articles/outer-wilds-review https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-12-31-outer-wilds-goty-2019 The Noclip documentary on how Outer Wilds was made, which we mention briefly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbY0mBXKKT0 And several books we discuss during the outro: 'Isaac Newton', 'Time Travel' and 'Information: A History, a Theory, a Flood' by James Gleick 'Quantum Theory Cannot Hurt You: A Guide to the Universe' by Marcus Chown 'Driving Mr Albert' by Michael Paterniti

A quiet January for new releases has been helped with the arrival of Temtem, a Pokémon-inspired MMO available now in Early Access - which has caused enough of a buzz that servers have struggled to keep up with demand. Join a full compliment of guides staff - guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn), guides writer Lottie Lynn (twitter.com/Stormscribe) and USGamer's Joel Franey (twitter.com/joelfraney) - who explain how close it is to Pokémon, how much the MMO parts matter, and between the queues to log in and other rough edges that come with any Early Access release, whether it's worth your time yet. If you want to read more, Lottie wrote a piece explaining why Temtem proves Pokemon is a genre of its own now, and if you are jumping in for the first time, our Temtem starters page can help with the all-important opening choice: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2020-01-24-temtem-proves-that-pokemon-is-a-genre-now https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2020-01-23-temtem-starters-crystle-smazee-houchic-7011

What makes a good Double-A game? You know, the games that might not have had the biggest budgets or the best marketing, but which still made your life a bit brighter with their gimmicks and sense of simple fun. We've been looking at Double-A games over the last few months with our new-ish feature series, and we wanted to delve into more about what makes a Double-A tick, the things that exclude a game from becoming Double-A, and also the next logical question - is there such a thing as Single-A? Join features editor Christian Donlan, guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) and Metabomb's Ed Thorn (twitter.com/FromEdward) on the podcast as we discuss what makes Double-A so special. And, once you're done, you can read our on-going archive of Double-A Team features here: https://www.eurogamer.net/archive/double-a-team

As you might have seen from the massive number of Steam player concurrents, a lot of people have had The Witcher on their mind since the release of the Netflix show, us included - so much so that we wanted to discuss it on the podcast. Join guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn), reporter Emma Kent (twitter.com/GoneEFK), deputy editor Wesley Yin-Poole (twitter.com/wyp100) and USGamer's Hirun Cryer (twitter.com/HirunCryer) for their thoughts on the adaptation. Though we don't delve too deep into the story of the show, be warned there are a few spoilers along the way if you are planning on watching - so consider doing so before listening. Here's some articles we mentioned during the podcast for further reading: So you finished The Witcher on Netflix - what next?

Join guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn), deputy editor Wesley Yin-Poole (twitter.com/wyp100), news editor Tom Phillips (twitter.com/tomphillipseg) and guides writer Lottie Lynn (twitter.com/stormscribe) for a preview of what's coming in 2020, as well as a few predictions of our own. As mentioned, we recorded this before we broke up for Christmas, so expect a few unanticipated delays to slip through (such as Ori and the Will of Wisps to March 11th) from the dates we mentioned. And here's The Last of Us Part 2 interview we discussed towards the end of the episode: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-09-26-on-fridging-joels-return-and-revenge-a-short-chat-with-the-last-of-us-part-2s-writer Thanks for listening as always, and we'll be back on a regular schedule from mid-January. Happy New Year from us at Eurogamer!

It's hard to believe how long we've known each other. Matthew is an incredible human and is the best hugger on the planet! He says that I 'play well with others'. That is a very kind compliment. Enjoy the show!

Stadia, the new streaming service from Google, has launched in state that, to quote Digital Foundry's tech review, is far from ready. Deputy editor Wesley Yin-Poole (twitter.com/wyp100) - who has been playing Stadia and reporting on the launch - guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) and reporter Imogen Beckhelling (twitter.com/immybeck) discuss its rough launch, from an unconvincing business model to accusations of promises broken over game performance, but also the potential of its promising tech and what Google should do next to win over players.

There's a lot of anticipation around this year's Pokémon game, Sword and Shield - it introduces the eighth generation of creatures, a new region based on the UK and is the first original Pokemon game for the Nintendo Switch. Unfortunately, the end result is a bit of a disappointment. Guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn), guides writer Lottie Lynn (twitter.com/Stormscribe) and USGamer's Hirun Cryer (twitter.com/HirunCryer) join Chris Tapsell (twitter.com/ChrisTapsell, who wrote our Pokémon Sword and Shield review) who explains why, despite taking one step forward in some areas - such as an excellent new roster and the introduction of the franchise's first open area - it takes two steps back almost everywhere else. You can read our Pokémon Sword and Shield review at Eurogamer.net: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-11-13-pokemon-sword-and-shield-review-a-shadow-of-a-former-great

After a huge departure for Call of Duty with Black Ops 4 last year - swapping out a traditional single-player story for a more in vogue battle royale mode - this year's game, Modern Warfare, is back-to-basics; a soft reboot which not only sees familiar faces returning, but also attempts to court controversy with its campaign. Unfortunately, despite being a fantastic looking, sounding and playing shooter, the campaign - as well as some of multiplayer - left us cold, with guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn), deputy editor Wesley Yin-Poole (twitter.com/wyp100), reporter Emma Kent (twitter.com/GoneEFK) and Digital Foundry's Tom Morgan (twitter.com/cataferal) explaining why. Also - an apology for the poor audio quality this week. You may have noticed recent episodes have sounded much better, but a technical hiccup meant we had to rely on a simpler set up again for this episode. Hopefully we'll have improved audio again for next time!

As you might have spotted on the site this past fortnight we've been busy looking at the rather brilliant Apple Arcade, talking about games such as Where Cards Fall, Hexaflip and What the Golf. Features editor Christian Donlan has been flying the flag for us, who - alongside editor Oli Welsh (twitter.com/OliWelsh) and guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) - discuss how Apple has managed to pull off one of the most satisfying new platform launches in recent memory - and not simply because it has the right games.

They say puns are the lowest form of humour. And yet - if you're a long time reader of the site, you'll know we take them very seriously. With Eurogamer turning 20 years old this week, guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn), deputy editor Wesley Yin-Poole (twitter.com/wyp100), reporter Emma Kent (twitter.com/GoneEFK) and features editor Christian Donlan delve into our long tradition of straplines - something we put a surprising amount of time and effort into - for a special birthday episode.

The addition of overpowered mechs in Fortnite's latest season has riled up not only the pro players, but seemingly everyone else playing too. Guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) is joined by fellow Fortnite enthusiasts news editor Tom Phillips (twitter.com/TomPhillipsEG), reporter Emma Kent (twitter.com/GoneEFK) and features editor Christian Donlan to discuss how season 10's changes have affected the game, as well as a look back at Fortnite's short but incredibly dense history to see what defines a good season and how the game's constantly evolving nature can prove both a blessing and a curse.

It feels like the success of Fire Emblem: Three Houses has taken everyone a bit by surprise - we knew it'll be brilliant, but it's seen the best-selling launch for the series as far as UK charts go back and, perhaps as a result, has resulted in a lot of questions as people get to grips in what appears to be a very demanding game. The good news is the part-strategy, part social-sim is a lot more flexible than first appears, so guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) sat down with reviews editor Martin Robinson (twitter.com/vics_viper, who wrote our review) and USGamer's Hirun Cryer (twitter.com/hiruncryer) to help answer the many questions - from the best House to choose from, whether the Classic 'permadeath' mode is worth it, and how it compares to Persona - you might have. Read Martin's review on Eurogamer.net: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-07-25-fire-emblem-three-houses-review-a-tactical-masterclass

This episode is all about Auto Chess - games such as Teamfight Tactics and Dota Underlords - which has become the next big thing on PC, and a bandwagon several big publishers are jumping on. Guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) asks in-house experts deputy editor Wesley Yin-Poole (twitter.com/wyp100) and Metabomb's Ed Thorne (twitter.com/FromEdward) what makes them so captivating, why the Auto Chess name doesn't make sense, and after going a little off the rails with our dream Auto Chess line-ups, the best way to get started if you wanted to play yourself.

Trust Nintendo to release spin-off Zelda and Mario games this summer and both turn out to be as good as their main entries. We wanted to shine the spotlight on Cadence of Hyrule, a Zelda game by the Crypt of the NecroDancer team Brace Yourself Games - a non-Nintendo studio - who has made a remarkably Nintendo-like game. Join guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn), features editor Christian Donlan, US Gamer's Hirun Cryer (twitter.com/HirunCryer) and Gamer Network platform developer Thomas Merchant (twitter.com/hippopothomasj) to talk about what makes this Zelda game different, but also surprisingly similar.

Our final podcast of E3 2019 sees guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) join our away team to discuss what it was like being on the ground at this year's show - from our first timers, reporter Emma Kent (twitter.com/GoneEFK) and staff writer Chris Tapsell (twitter.com/ChrisTapsell), to veterans Johnny Chiodini (twitter.com/Johnneh) and news editor Tom Phillips (twitter.com/TomPhillipsEG). As well as contending with jetlag and a subdued showfloor, the team go through the games they saw behind closed doors that stood out the most - including Cyberpunk 2077, Control, Zelda: Link's Awakening, the Final Fantasy 7 remake, John Wick Hex, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Pokémon Sword and Shield. Some of the team's coverage discussed on the show: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-06-12-weve-seen-another-50-minutes-of-cyberpunk-2077-gameplay-is-it-cyberpunk-yet https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-06-19-an-interview-with-cyberpunk-creator-mike-pondsmith https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-06-12-a-conversation-with-the-artist-behind-that-cyberpunk-2077-poster https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-06-13-after-an-hour-of-playing-it-control-seems-extraordinary https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-06-17-carrion-is-disgusting-and-i-want-to-play-it-again-immediately https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/call-of-duty-cinematic-experience. https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-06-11-weve-seen-two-new-pokemon-from-pokemon-sword-and-shield

After seven livestreams, several late nights and a lot of coffee, we made it - E3 2019 is finally underway. Our away team is running around the E3 showfloor covering what's just been announced, so in the meantime, guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn), features editor Christian Donlan, deputy editor Wesley Yin-Poole (twitter.com/wyp100) go through each press conference to rate how each publisher fared.

Eurogamer is relaunching its series of 'best games' features, starting with the Nintendo Switch, and we thought what better way to explain why we're doing it, and how we've settled on the games we have, than doing it live on the podcast? Join guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn), reviews editor Martin Robinson (twitter.com/vics_viper) and features editor Christian Donlan (not on Twitter) as they try and narrow down the entire Switch catalogue into just 15 games you must play. Eurogamer plans to update this list regularly, so remember this is our choices as of May 2018, as it'll likely change over time. Read our best Nintendo Switch games list here: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-05-23-best-nintendo-switch-games-2026

Detective Pikachu is a weird film, and if you're like us, you inevitably have a few thoughts on how it all pieces together. Join Eurogamer's biggest Pokemon fans - staff writer Chris Tapsell (twitter.com/ChrisTapsell), news editor Tom Phillips (twitter.com/TomPhillipsEG), social media manager Paul Watson (twitter.com/WalnutSoap) and guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) - for a bonus spoiler podcast as they share their thoughts on the Detective Pikachu ending and much more - including yes, that Lickitung scene.

There's nothing Final Fantasy fans enjoy more than debating which is the best game in the series - so with features editor Martin Robinson declaring on the website how "the best Final Fantasy is even better now that it's portable" with the arrival of FF12 release on Switch, now is the perfect time to get into it ourselves on the podcast. Martin (twitter.com/vics_viper) joins guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) and Digital Foundry's Tom Morgan (twitter.com/cataferal)to explain what makes Final Fantasy 12 is so special - and so divisive - and why the remaster means it holds up better today than other entries in the series. Spoilers - it comes down to the font. We also (eventually) solve the mystery of how it's related to another fan favourite Square Enix game.

It was no secret both PlayStation and Microsoft were working on new consoles, but it was Sony who was the first to release concrete details of its next system - for what we assume will be called the PlayStation 5. Join guides editor and host Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn), deputy editor Wesley Yin-Poole (twitter.com/wyp100), staff writer Chris Tapsell (twitter.com/ChrisTapsell) and Digital Foundry's Tom Morgan (twitter.com/cataferal) as they discuss what the PS5 specs mean and what they want to see from next-gen - plus our predictions for launch games and the next Xbox's name for good measure.

The Ace Attorney series is breaking new ground this week, with a remaster of the Phoenix Wright trilogy making its console and PC debut. It probably explains why, despite having such an ardent fanbase, few in the Eurogamer office have played an Ace Attorney game. Podcast host Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) is joined by two long-time fans of the series - social media manager Paul Watson (twitter.com/WalnutSoap) and Outside Xbox's Andy Farrant (twitter.com/farrantula), as well as USGamer's Hirun Cryer (twitter.com/HirunCryer), who played Phoenix Wright for the first time recently - to explain why fans love the series so much, and why there's no 'Objections' to saying the trilogy remaster is the perfect place to start. (That'll make sense once you play it.)

At EGX Rezzed 2019 in London, Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) hosted a live podcast featuring editor Oli Welsh (twitter.com/OliWelsh), deputy editor Wesley Yin-Poole (@wyp100), reviews editor Martin Robinson (twitter.com/vics_viper) and contributor Malindy Hetfeld (twitter.com/yourkyotowife) answering your questions on reviews and the review process.

Well, who saw this coming? The original Diablo is now available as a digital download - for the first time ever - courtesy of GOG and Blizzard. Guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn), editor Oli Welsh (twitter.com/OliWelsh), senior staff writer Robert Purchase (twitter.com/Clert) and features editor Christian Donlan reacquaint themselves with a forgotten classic, and discover the similarities - and surprising differences - between Diablo old and new. We also touch upon how the Diablo originally came about - it was a turn-based game once, did you know! - as well as its future, discussing what we'd like to see from Diablo 4, and what could possibly be holding it back. And how do you pronounce Diablo, anyway?

The themes raised by Matthew Reynolds' Likenesses: Translation, Illustration, Interpretation will be discussed by Dr Jason Gaiger (Ruskin School), Dr Adriana Jacobs (Oriental Studies) and Dr Nick Halmi (English). Translation, illustration and interpretation have at least two things in common. They all begin when sense is made in the act of reading: that is where illustrative images and explanatory words begin to form. And they all ask to be understood in relation to the works from which they have arisen: reading them is a matter of reading readings. Likenesses explores this palimpsestic realm, with examples from Dante to the contemporary sculptor Rachel Whiteread. The complexities that emerge are different from Empsonian ambiguity or de Man's unknowable infinity of signification: here, meaning dawns and fades as the hologrammic text is filled out and flattened by successive encounters. Likenesses follows on from the argument of Reynolds's The Poetry of Translation (2011), extending it through other translations and beyond into a wide range of layered texts. Browning emerges as a key figure because his poems laminate languages, places, times and modes of utterance with such compelling energy. There are also substantial, innovative accounts of Dryden, Stubbs, Goya, Turner, Tennyson, Ungaretti and many more. Matthew Reynolds teaches at Oxford where he is a Fellow of St Anne's College and The Times lecturer in the English Faculty. It has been said of him that 'the best critics, like the best poets (in Browning's words) impart the gift of seeing to the rest: Reynolds has this gift of seeing and imparting' (TLS). His earlier books are The Poetry of Translation, The Realms of Verse 1830-1870, the novels The World Was All Before Them and Designs for a Happy Home(/i), and editions of Dante in English and of Manzoni.

If you've played the demo or early access, it was clear Anthem - BioWare's new games-as-a-service loot shooter - would be a fascinating if flawed game, and unfortunately the full game only emphasises what a mess it is in places. Guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn), news editor Tom Phillips (twitter.com/TomPhillipsEG) and guides writer Chris Tapsell (twitter.com/ChrisTapsell) join Anthem reviewer and Eurogamer editor Oli Welsh (twitter.com/OliWelsh) to discuss its many foibles, but also what works and the things that could pull us back in again - all while we try to keep our food metaphors and Destiny comparisons to a minimum.

2019 gets off to a flying start with Resident Evil 2, a remake that manages to meet some very high expectations in reviving the most fondly-remembered entry in the series. As well as why it's such a brilliant remake, guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn), deputy editor Wesley Yin-Poole (twitter.com/wyp100) and reviews editor Martin Robinson discuss their shameful anecdotes from playing the original Resident Evil games, what Lickers remind (some of) them of, and predict the next game in Capcom's hot streak of January releases.

It's the end of the year, so you know what means - it's time for Eurogamer to reveal its best game of the 2018. Though we've done things slightly different this time - there is no weighted list - we still crown one game as the year's finest. But what will it be? Join Eurogamer senior staff - reviews editor Martin Robinson, deputy editor Wesley Yin-Poole (twitter.com/wyp100), guides editor Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) and features editor Christian Donlan - as they explain what took the top spot and why, as well as a lengthy discussion over the one other game that under close consideration.

Monster Boy is back! Christian Donlan and Matthew Reynolds discuss the excellent Dragon's Trap remake and its spiritual successor Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom, attempt to grasp the complex lineage of the series and why the original Wonder Boy 3 was such a revelation back on the Sega Master System. Plus! Some 1990s games mag nostalgia thrown in for good measure.

After recording a podcast about how it's such an exciting time for Pokémon fans with Let's Go, you can't quite say the same for those looking forward to Fallout 76, the online spin-off in Bethesda's role-playing series. Unfortunately, after playing both the beta and the full release, it ranges from middling to being a bizarre, boring, broken mess as described in our review. Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) joins our in-house Fallout experts Wesley Yin-Poole (twitter.com/wyp100) and Emma Kent (twitter.com/GoneEFK) to chat about what went wrong, and whether the game could possibly redeem itself one day.

The Eurogamer office's most obsessive Pokémon fans Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn), Tom Phillips (twitter.com/tomphillipsEG) and Emma Kent (twitter.com/GoneEFK) discuss Chris Tapsell (twitter.com/ChrisTapsell)'s Pokémon Let's Go review - a game he enjoyed more than originally expected - our Community Day stories from a particularly strong year for Pokémon Go, and our collective horror at the first look at next year's Detective Pikachu movie.

This week Martin Robinson (twitter.com/@vics_viper), Tom Phillips (twitter.com/@tomphillipsEG) and Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/@Crazyreyn) discuss the biggest release of the year, Red Dead Redemption 2 - from what works and what doesn't in Rockstar's latest vast open world endeavour, to Tom's reporting on the working conditions of overtime and crunch involved in making the game.

Life is Strange is back, and so are the Arcadia Baes! Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) sits down with Aoife Wilson (twitter.com/AoifeLockhart) and Johnny Chiodini (twitter.com/johnneh) to chat about the first episode of the second - surprisingly different - series. While this isn't a fully-fledged spoilercast like previous Arcadia Baes episodes - it's more of a review-style chat - we dig deep into the themes and predictions - and as such, there are some slight spoilers if you're wary of them. Enjoy!

Whether you're making your way to EGX in Birmingham this year, or have ever been to one of our parent company Gamer Network's other events, you may have wondered how it all comes together. Reporter intern Emma Kent (twitter.com/GoneEFK) and Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) sat down with head of content (and former podcast host!) Tom Champion (twitter.com/TomChampion) to explain how the events team makes it happen.

Shenmue is back in our lives thanks to a recent remaster. Our second returning episode of the Eurogamer Podcast sees Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) and fellow Shenmue obsessive Martin Robinson (twitter.com/vics_viper) do their upmost to brush off the nostalgia and see how well it actually holds up now - as well as some thoughts on what the long-awaited third instalment will be like. Join us for a game of Lucky Hit, won't you?

It wouldn't be Eurogamer if we didn't try something new with the podcast at least every couple of years, so here we go again. The Eurogamer Podcast - it's back! Our first returning episode sees Matthew Reynolds (twitter.com/Crazyreyn) and Wesley Yin-Poole (twitter.com/wyp100) talk to Chris Tapsell (twitter.com/ChrisTapsell) about an article he wrote earlier this year - 'I was in Football Manager and I don't know how I feel about it'. It's an account of how Chris spent his youth breaking into professional football, and ended up in one of the most world's most popular video games because of it (and without spoiling things, there's some unexpected results) and is a brilliant, personal story whether you follow football or not. Oh, and the book Chris recommends is 'No Hunger in Paradise' by Michael Calvin, if you're interested.

“I’m looking for some sailors.” We begin tonight with an admission. I openly mock the fact that there’ll never be a Shenmue III to fellow peers on Twitter, but I’ve never actually played either Shenmue or Shenmue II, despite it being one of the most beloved games of all time. It’s a game that has […]

Short presentation by Dr Jason Gaiger (Ruskin School) followed by discussion. This seminar launched the Languages of Criticism project which brings together experts in literature, film, visual art and music to pursue a comparative investigation of criticism’s practices, their intellectual basis, and the potential for re-grounding and enriching them. We used examples from a variety of art forms to initiate questions regarding the creative possibilities of criticism. Among those present were Céline Sabiron, Ben Morgan, Mohamed-Salah Omri, Emma Ben Ayoun, Bryony Skelton, James Bond, Kamile Vaupsaite, Ellen Jones, Giovanni Mezzano, Xiaofan Amy Li, G. Lawson Conquer, Mia Cuthbertson, Junting Huang, Rafe Hampson, Joseph Jenner, Gail Trimble, Scott Newman, Julia Bray, James Grant, Robert Chard, Simon Palfrey, Philippe Roussin, Laurent Châtel, Emily Troscianko, Natasha Ryan, Charlie Louth, David Bowe, Lucy Russell, Jane Hiddleston, Marie Isabel Matthews-Schlinzly, Anita Paz, Harriet Wragg, Benedict Morrison, Kate Leadbetter, Katerina Virvidaki, Sarah Leyla Puells A, Thomas Toles, Lianjiang Yu, Carole Bourne-Taylor Andrew Klevan, University Lecturer in Film Studies, played a clip from The Magnificent Ambersons, read out a passage of criticism about it, and then explained why he felt the passage of criticism had value, paying attention especially to its style. Matthew Reynolds, a lecturer in the English Faculty, explored the borderline between perception and invention in literary criticism, discussing in particular Keats’s ‘On First Looking into Chapman’s Homer’ and a passages by Ali Smith and William Empson. Jason Gaiger, Head of the Ruskin School of Drawing and Fine Art, conducted a thought experiment in which works from Tate Modern were given away to people to keep in their homes. He asked what role criticism can play when a work’s context and situation are more significant than its intrinsic qualities. Martyn Harry, composer and lecturer in the Music Faculty, explored how pieces of music can themselves function as works of criticism Discussion probed many of the arguments made in the talks and raised new points, such as the relation between criticism and translation, and between criticism and commentary, and the different practices that might be thought of as criticism in different cultures.

Prof David Herman (Durham) on ‘Narrative and/as Heterophenomenology: Modelling Nonhuman Experiences in Storyworlds’ with responses from Dr Emily Troscianko (MML) and Dr James Carney (Social and Evolutionary Science Research Group) followed by refreshments Wednesday 20th November, 4-6.30pm, The Seminar Room, TORCH, Radcliffe Humanities Building with Prof David Herman (Durham) on ‘Narrative and/as Heterophenomenology: Modelling Nonhuman Experiences in Storyworlds’ with responses from Dr Emily Troscianko (MML) and Dr James Carney (Social and Evolutionary Science Research Group) followed by refreshments and discussion. David Herman is Professor of the Engaged Humanities in the Department of English Studies at Durham University. He is author of Storytelling and the Sciences of Mind (MIT Press, 2013) and many other books and articles working at the intersection of literary study and cognitive science. Emily Troscianko is a JRF in Modern Languages at St John’s College, Oxford. Her study of Kafka, Kafka’s Cognitive Realism, will be published early next year by Routledge. James Carney is a post-doctoral researcher in the Social and Evolutionary Science Research Group in Oxford. He is co-editor of Beckett Re-Membered: After the Centenary (2012) and is currently working on a monograph entitled: Life Stories: Towards a Biosemiotic Model of Narrative Signification to be published by de Gruyter. The seminar is the first organized as part of a new project with the working title: “Cultures of Mindreading: The novel and other minds” Report from Cultures of Mind-Reading: The Novel and Other Minds The session inaugurated a new thread in the Comparative Criticism and Translation Programme which will be investigating ways in which the novel as a form reflects on and contributes to a flexible understanding of how human beings interact with, understand and make sense of each other. David Herman’s presentation focused on the limit case: interacting with and understanding non-human animals, asking where and why we draw the limits of mutual understanding, and looking at the ways in which narratives which focus on animal consciousness can reflect on, expand and explore the limits of human self-understanding. Emily Troscianko, in her response, asked whether there was a lingering commitment in Herman’s otherwise very innovative approach to a model of consciousness as a representation of the world (agent-makes-representation-of-environment-in-its-mind). This is a crucial point. If we want to escape from the idea that literature ‘mirrors’ the world, it is probably helpful to give up the parallel trope that the mind ‘mirrors’ reality and to look to models, like that of Alva Noë, on whom David Herman drew in his presentation, which understand the mind not as a mirror or inner state but as a form of shared practice: a product of things people do together in a shared environment. James Carney emphasized the importance of checking the models of narrative we develop with what can be observed of the way people actually behave. He reminded us of the variety of narrative forms, not all of which we treat in the same way, and not all of which we have the same expectations of. Finally, he issued a caveat about anthropomorphism. However circumspect we are when approaching and trying to understand animal minds, it is all too easy to construct them in the end as nothing more than attenuated human minds. An element which strongly emerged from the discussion was the strength of the assumption that there will be one uniform human mind or one uniform animal mind. But the more we include culture and shared practices of interaction in our approach, the less tenable this will appear. Human beings and dogs learn to interact with each other in specific contexts, so there will be as many varieties of canine minds as there are cultures of dog-handling. The session opened the way for further study of the different cultures through which we learn to engage with other minded beings.

Matthew Reynolds, Fellow and Tutor in English Language and Literature, Oxford, gives a talk for the 2013 Oxford Alumni Weekend. Translations are never as good as their originals - or so we tend to think. But why should that be? Surely translation can involve gain as well as loss? But, if it does that, doesn't it stop being translation and turn into something else: a 'version', 'interpretation' or 'poem in its own right'? The 2013 St Anne's Founding Fellows Lecture will explore these questions with the help of a range of wonderful translations into English, such as Dante, Virgil, Homer, Zamyatin, Dryden, Pope, Ciaran Carson, Natasha Randall and Peter Robinson. We will discover what it means for a piece of writing to be at once a translation and a work of literature.

If there's one person that One Life Left chooses to follow as their leader in life other than Taylor Swift or Martin Hollis then it has to be Dean Gaffney. So when we read that he had applied to join MI5 we thought that if we got an actual spy on the show then it would help us in our quest to Be Like Dean. Unfortunately Simon read the e-mail wrong and booked Matthew Reynolds, gaming editor for Digital Spy. But that actually turned out to be a great decision as we're a radio show about videogames and we're not sure Judi Dench would be able to tell us much about the Wii U (although Nintendo have probably signed her up for an advert). Matthew tells us what it's like to work for the Internet's fourteenth best website and what the Wii U is actually like to play as Nintendo didn't send us one after that incident with Shigsy we can't talk about. He also manages to avoid staring at Simon's massive coldsore, getting confused by Ste's hungover questioning and the thing Ann did that was literally unbroadcastable. However, he did let slip about the housewarming party that he's holding on the same day as our Christmas Party. So that's our after party sorted, we just have the hotel lobby and the room to arrange now.  Cheerio!Team OLL x Links:https://twitter.com/Crazyreynhttp://www.digitalspy.co.ukhttp://onelifeleft.eventbrite.com/https://www.facebook.com/events/458392150874256/ Tracklist: 1.
