I love games and I live games. Video games are my passion, my hobby and my job. My experience with games started back in 1994 with the Metal Mutant game on ZX Spectrum computer. And since then, I’ve been playing on anything from consoles, to mobile devices. My first official job in the game industry started back in 2005, and I'm still doing what I love to do.

  1. Like the blog post for Apex legends, not to much information just enough to get me going with the controls.

    post coming from a complete game newbie I’ve just downloaded the game as its free on my steam account and I want to test out the upgraded CPU / GPU set up on this desktop built for mining crypto and letting me work in the foreground.
    So I will post back learning to game on Apex legends with the control ‘input’ (pun intended) from this blog post
    Thanks Again
