Yes, i play video games far too much than my
partner would like. I wish for the day where I’l be working for a gaming company. Designing for
games, who wouldn’t want that. Transitioning
from PC to PS4 gaming was bitter sweet, PC
offers better control and graphics, but with PS4
you could play any game lying down on your
couch, who doesn't’ want that!
