From ripping up Call of Duty: Black Ops Team Deathmatches on the Xbox 360, to exploring the vast world of Tamriel through the revered Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim title via the Xbox One, the Xbox series has been a constant feature within my own gaming life, along with millions of others, and many of us have always been delighted with their performance. As of late, I thought I was happy with my Xbox One, but then disaster struck: I had a cheeky go on the Xbox Series X. The only way I can describe this experience is in the way of cars: it was like I had been driving a BMW for years, I was happy with the car, it performed perfectly and gave me quite the ride whilst travelling from A to B, but then I got to test drive a Lamborghini. Whilst both great cars in their own right, once you taste the speed of the latter, the former, despite its familiarity and consistency, might end up seeming a bit languid.
The Reasons Why There Is An Xbox and PlayStation Console Shortage
Joel GunnerJul 8, '21
It’s July 2021 – 6 months after the fall. The day the world stood still, the day when we couldn’t get our hands on a ninth-generation console. PlayStation 5 boxes selling for £1000, a pristine copy of Ghost of Tsushima waits, gathering dust: chaos.

The Crescendo of Nintendo? A Tour Of The Nintendo Switch And Related Accessories
Joel GunnerJul 5, '21
I still remember my first gaming experience back in the Summer of 2004. I was in the back of my parents car driving around the British coastline, playing Need For Speed on my two-button Nintendo Gameboy Advance – I was happy as Larry. A decade and a bit later, on March 3rd 2017, the long awaited Nintendo Switch came out; a device that, compared to the Advance, was ironically far, far more advanced and sophisticated. As I write this today, over 85 million of us have bought a Nintendo Switch; one of the most popular machines of its kind. I hadn’t played with a handheld gaming console since my Gameboy saga, so when I picked up the Switch for the first time I was just gobsmacked, blown away by the prowess of this device – I was playing The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt whilst at the dinner table. It didn’t feel quite real.
