PS5 / PS5 Pro content — upgrades, impressions, comparisons & “is it worth it?” breakdowns
Accessories & setups that actually make gaming easierThe funny realities of dad-life gaming (including my ever-growing Steam Deck backlog)
If you love the Steam Deck, enjoy console gaming, or just want tech that fits around real life and family life — you’re in the right place.
Subscribe and enjoy the journey!

The Witcher 3 on Steam Deck is now live.
This isn’t a benchmark — it’s about what it’s actually like playing a big RPG around real life: short sessions, suspend/resume, battery reality, and whether it genuinely fits.
If you find it useful, a like, a comment, or tapping the Hype button really does help get the video in front of more people and helps the channel grow.
Really appreciate everyone supporting this direction.

I’ve been spending proper time with The Witcher 3 on Steam Deck — not benchmarking it, just living with it.
Short sessions, suspend/resume, battery reality, and whether a big RPG actually fits around real life.
The video’s coming Saturday at 6pm GMT
(1pm Eastern / 10am Pacific).
This one’s for anyone who’s owned the game for years but never quite played it properly.

I’m thinking about tightening up the channel name so it better reflects what the videos are actually about — real-world Steam Deck gaming around work, family, and limited time.
Nothing drastic, just making it clearer for new viewers finding the channel for the first time.

Coming up soon…
I spent some proper time using a PlayStation Portal alongside my Steam Deck.
Not a specs video or a console-war thing — just using it around normal life: short sessions, sofa gaming, late nights, and seeing how well a streaming-only handheld fits into day-to-day gaming.
I’ll share the experience in an upcoming video.

I’m planning a more chill Steam Deck video focused on how games actually feel to play — real performance, battery life, comfort, and overall experience.
Less benchmarks, more real-world use.
If I do this, the first one would be on The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
Before I commit, would you want this?

It’s Love Island time which means Witcher 3 time for me!

New video is live.
This one’s a bit different — less about specs, more about why gaming still feels special. Playing single-player games on the Steam Deck brought back that PlayStation feeling for me.
If you enjoy it and spot YouTube’s new Hype option, giving it a tap really helps smaller channels like this get seen. No pressure at all — just appreciate the support.
What was the game that gave you that instant joy feeling?

This one’s a bit different.
Less about specs, more about that feeling you get when a game pulls you in and you forget everything else.
If you grew up on PlayStation and still love single-player games, this might hit home.
Dropping today at 17:30.

A bit different, this one.
I’ve been thinking a lot about gaming lately — especially how it used to feel when you first picked up a console and got lost in a game.
This Sunday’s video is more reflective than usual.
Less specs, more feeling.
If you grew up on PlayStation, this one might hit home.
Coming Sunday at 17:30 (UK Time)
