I’ve been PCMag’s home entertainment expert for over 10 years, covering both TVs and everything you might want to connect to them.

After graduating from Edinburgh Napier University with a degree in Journalism, I contributed to the Scottish Games Network and completed an Editorial Internship over at Expert Reviews.Without the back paddles, I enjoyed playing games like Sunset Overdrive and Dead Space 2 with the Elite Series 2 Core. The D-pad looks like a satellite dish of a futuristic spacecraft, and the buttons have Xbox's patented feel.
