Sony launching a half way house mobile device
This is an odd announcement. I love the look of the device but it’s purpose is to stream games over Wi-Fi that are already installed on your PS5… I have to assume this is a step 1, before Sony announce a game pass competitor that has full on game streaming. I hope it isn’t too…

How much does Nintendo charge for a switch battery replacement?
I came across this page showing Nintendo will charge £120 for a battery replacement, this seems steep given it’s half the price of a new console.

I’ve not turned on the Xbox Series X or PlayStation 5 since Zelda tears of the kingdom was released
Wow, just realised I’m so absorbed in Zelda that the Xbox and PlayStation haven’t had a look in. My PSN also expired so I’m glad I cancelled it for a bit to save some money. What a game!

Every time I play Zelda: tears of the kingdom
Every time I play Zelda: tears of the kingdom I can’t believe how great this looks on older hardware. Even on launch the Switch didn’t have a cutting edge processor but Nintendo can get a lot out of their hardware, they always have. It’s such a beautiful game, handheld or docked it reminds me why…

The first 2 hours of Zelda: tears of the kingdom
So it’s release date for one of my most anticipated games of the year, the new Zelda. Before breath of the wild I hadn’t got into Zelda but that game grabbed me and took me on one of my most memorable gaming experiences ever. In the end I couldn’t wait to play it so I…

Escaping into the world of Ghost of Tsushima
When I stepped away I continued to game, it’s been a constant in my life for as long as I can remember. I decided to finally delve into Ghost of Tsushima on my PS5. Wow, what a beautiful game. Open world (think Zelda, GTA, Red Dead Redemption) games are my favourite, I get so absorbed.…

It’s about time for an updated Nintendo Switch
I’ve owned my Switch for 5 years now and it’s gotten to the point where it’s showing it’s age. Between the slow Wi-Fi, a store that’s so slow to navigate I give up, no access to other games (it would be the perfect device for Xbox cloud gaming) and joy-cons that always seem to start…

My PlayStation 5 is a Gran Turismo 7 machine
When I picked up the PlayStation 5 before Christmas it was to replace our PlayStation 4, which had gotten so loud I needed to turn the volume on the TV up so loud it was unreasonable. When I got it I installed all of the games I could with my subscription to PlayStation Plus but…

PlayStation 5 review
I’ve been using the PlayStation 5 for over three weeks now and I wanted to share some thoughts on using it almost daily. I picked up the disc based version. Build and design It’s a stark design, very futuristic but less practical than the Xbox series x that sits on the shelf underneath. It’s bigger…

PS5 vs PS4 Pro
I’ve currently got both a PS5 and PS4 Pro to play with and have some thoughts around each and if it’s worth upgrading if you already have a PS4 Pro. The worst part of owning a PS4 Pro and the main tangible difference between it and the PS5 is fan noise. The fan noise on…

PlayStation has Xbox beat when it comes to the single player experience
Now I’m a few days in with the PS5 it reminds me why I loved the PlayStation in the first place, great single player experiences. Uncharted, last of us, god of war, ghost of tsushima, Spider-Man and more. These stories really get me engaged and Xbox doesn’t really have anything to compare. Don’t get me…

Which games show off the graphics of the PlayStation 5?
I’ve only had 24 hours with the PlayStation 5 but already starting to pick my favourite games, graphics wise. When you get your new shiny PS5 you’ll want to see what it can do. Here are some of the games I’ve played that look to be utilising some of what the next generation console has…

My most played Xbox games this month
Gaming is a massive part of my downtime, in fact it’s the default way I unwind. I don’t really talk about it much here though but thought I’d share the games I’ve been playing the most this month. This isn’t gained from looking at stats but the ones I feel I’ve been playing the most.…

Chivalry 2 comes to Xbox Game pass
I didn’t even spot it was coming but Chivalry 2 has come to game pass. Another reason I’m loving the Xbox this time around rather than a PS5.
