I just purchased an Xbox Series X last month, why? Well I do have an Xbox Series S and Xbox one but I worry that the Series X model which is available right now might be the LAST Xbox console to feature a disc drive as Xbox pushes forward to an all digital future (also leaks came out that a white Series X with no disc drive is on the way) !

I hate the idea of an All digital gaming future, I feel a balance and options is the best for consumers so I had to put my money where my mouth was an pick up a Series X, also it will allow me to pick up some incredible Xbox 360 games which work via backwards compatibility but are no longer available digitally due to licencing issues which is a BIG bonus!

Its an impressive bit of kit which i feel Xbox have nowhere near enough got enough performance out of this box, even though its a horrible looking console I intend to make it a bit cooler looking by firing on some cool dbrand skins! Maybe I should do a comparison between the Series S and Series X?

So this is my new favourite thing I bought a week ago! It's called ColorCoral and it's basically a cleaning slime, what you do is take it out and push it into your keyboard and roll it across, back and forth and what it does, is clean your cleanboard by sucking up all the crap between keys and dirt/dust off the keyboard!

It was I think £10 - It's really good and it's worth it and the best thing is it doesn't fall apart when you're using it.

The sweets are because I love sweets xD Plus it was a new sweetshop in the city and I couldn't resist going in!

MURRRAAAAY made me buy these and I love them! I was saving up for a Stream Deck, but then the Elgato Wave 3 mic was on sale too on Amazon so I gave in and went for both. Before I thought that Elgato products were overpriced and I only looked at a Stream Deck as a necessity to have easier controls to my stream but damn this was worth all the money I spent on it. Truly quality hardware and the software is really nice and easy to use even for a noob like me. Didn't think having a standalone mic would make such a huge difference compared to my headset mic, but it does. I 100% recommend these, they are not cheap but it's money well spent. And it makes me feel good that I could afford these from my payouts here, so thanks guys! 💚
