Extras

If you’re a PC gamer or content creator, you know how big some of these files can be — if you’re looking for a storage upgrade, I recommend investing in a WD Black D10 8TB External Hard Drive. It’s what I personally use in my setup and have tons of games and years of stream footage with space to spare.

If you’re looking for a new controller, my top recommendation is the 8BitDo Ultimate Bluetooth Controller. It’s one of the few wireless controllers with rumble features, it connects to both PCs and all consoles, and features special Hall Effect joysticks to prevent future controller drift.

What games are you most excited for, even if they aren’t on this list? I’d love to hear your thoughts and what games you’ve been playing. Let’s start a conversation and leave a comment down below!
