⭐️New @swappingjoysticks.bsky.social Episode⭐️ I've rolled credits on Pokémon Pokopia, while @ednights.bsky.social has some strong opinions about it. He’s also finished Resident Evil Requiem and, because he feels like it, has started playing through Mass Effect 2. 🔽LINKS🔽

Oh my god I want them all! www.pokemoncenter.com/en-gb/catego...

Friday Night Wrestling is back! What could be more fun that watching your community oiled up and beating each other up in virtual wrestling? 🔴LIVE NOW🔴 (wrestling from 8pm GMT) ✨ twitch.tv/biggusbennus

I went to Reading for a day trip and genuinely enjoyed it. Things I learned: - Sheep are chonky - Henry VIII was a vandal - Popeyes is overrated - Not enough biscuits If you want to check out the 3min video, here it is: vm.tiktok.com/ZNR927YT8/

I always feel awkward when I’m about to like an Insta story and notice it was posted 30 seconds ago. Makes me feel like a stalker. 💀

No more random yelping coming from the living room. Kept thinking we’d bought a puppy.

⭐️New @swappingjoysticks.bsky.social Episode⭐️ Pokémon Pokopia has grabbed me by the Pokéballs and will not let go. Also, @ednights.bsky.social has been obsessed with Resident Evil Requiem and Minishoot' Adventures when he wanted a palette cleanser. 🔽LINKS🔽

I really wish Netflix would stop summarising the entirety of a documentary in the first 3 minutes before the title card. I get that people have mushy brain attention spans these days but what’s the point in watching when they do that? A good documentary has great storytelling. Netflix docs do not.

Got a day off today, so a whole afternoon and evening of Pokémon Pokopia sounds like the perfect thing to do. 🔴LIVE NOW🔴 💫 twitch.tv/biggusbennus

Met Cubone in Pokémon Pokopia. IYKYK

Time for more Pokémon Pokopia! The Pokémon Centre should be fully built now! 🔴LIVE NOW🔴 💫 twitch.tv/biggusbennus

Time to play Pokémon Pokopia for the first time! Other than the reveal trailer, I've avoided seeing anything else, so very excited to see what it's all about! 🔴LIVE🔴 - with Twitch drops! 💫 twitch.tv/biggusbennus

Happy 9 year anniversary to the Switch! What a day this was - my only regret is not getting a Pro controller at the start. 80+ hours of BotW with the Joycon Grip was agonising.

Formula Joysticks returns this Friday and this year it's going to be LIVE on my Twitch channel! Join me and @ednights.bsky.social as we put our relationship to the ultimate test with head-to-head battles in F1 2025 every race weekend. Luckily, we aren't that competitive... 🫠

Having a lot of fun with this

Almost 6 years later to the day, it's time for another brilliant cute and cosy Nintendo life-sim to come out as the world falls apart around us.

Looking forward to playing Resident Evil: Requiem later today! I’ll be live from just after 4pm UK time. Huge thank you to Capcom for the code! 🌟

Going live testing out the @marathonthegame.bungie.net Server Slam! Can't wait to try it - Bungie always deliver. Then later on I'll be playing the first hour of Resident Evil: Requiem. Nice bit of spook before bed. 🔴LIVE🔴 ✨ twitch.tv/biggusbennus

How your email finds me

I may be basic but dog + fire = the perfect Pokémon. Can't wait for this! Pombon will be best boy. #PokemonWindsWaves

Ohhhhh it's finally coming out! Excellent news for PS5 Pro owners!

Didn't realise just how stacked the next month is for game releases. We're in for a treat (and a battering of our wallets).

It's live! #Marathon

This is so sad to see.

⭐️New @swappingjoysticks.bsky.social Episode⭐️ My turn to play Nioh 3 this week and it went as well as can be expected. @ednights.bsky.social and I chat Resident Evil 3 Remake, Steam Next Fest demos, and much more! 🔽LINKS🔽

Great day at Guildford Games Festival today!

Now with a face! (Yes I’m eeking this process out)

⭐️New @swappingjoysticks.bsky.social Episode⭐️ We're back and hopefully better than ever! @ednights.bsky.social and I chat about what we've been up to the past 6 months and chat about everything revealed at last night's PlayStation State of Play. 🔽LINKS🔽

Slowly plugging away at this and it’s starting to look like a tree. Now, it’s decision time…

I really wish Virtua Tennis was on modern consoles. I’ve never been into an arcade game as much as Virtua Tennis 2. I don’t even need a new game - gimme a port!

Playing WoW last week really made me want to return to FFXIV. So let's do it! I've got a bunch of post-Dawntrail MSQ to finish and plenty of other bits! Also - news about @swappingjoysticks.bsky.social!! 🔴LIVE🔴 💫 twitch.tv/biggusbennus

The Yorkshire representation in Dragon Quest VII Reimagined is beyond anything I could have hoped for.

Playing Dragon Quest VII Reimagined on Switch 2 while @ednights.bsky.social cooks up dinner! This is the life. I’ve been wondering what game to start and an hour in, I’m loving it. Runs so smoothly too! #ad #gifted @square-enix-games.com

Very happy to see such positive reviews for Nioh 3. The first release I’ve worked on in PR, glad to see media loving it as much as I enjoyed the demo!

Time to play WoW for the first time! Let's see how it goes. Help appreciated! twitch.tv/biggusbennus

I fancy a day playing Fable. Come join and see my chicken kicking skills! twitch.tv/biggusbennus

This seems dangerous. How welcoming is WoW to someone who's terminally casual in every game they play? I have zero interest in PvP or endgame high-skill raids. I just wanna goof around.

So cool to be able to play Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade on Switch 2! The performance is genuinely brilliant, but don’t take my word for it - plenty of tech videos out there saying the same. If you’ve not played it before and have a Switch 2, it’s a great experience! #ad

I adored Fable back in 2004 when it first came out, but haven't played it since. Now seems like a great time to play through it all again! 🔴LIVE NOW🔴 💫 twitch.tv/biggusbennus

Time for Swapping Joysticks Live! Chatting nonsense with @ednights.bsky.social about life, gaming and whatnot. Don’t worry, we’ll finish stream in time for Traitors. Twitch.tv/biggusbennus

Just finished reading ‘I Who Have Never Known Men’.

Treated myself to a Kindle as we ran out of space on the bookcase. I’ve heard this is a brilliant book, can’t wait to get started!

Best news I’ve heard in ages. The first two in the series were incredible.

Very happy to announce I’ve now made the jump from journalism to PR and have joined the gaming team at Premier in London. Exciting projects ahead I look forward to sharing more on soon!

It’s too expensive and chaotic to go out, so let’s see in 2026 on Twich! Join me and @ednights.bsky.social now and for the next few hours as we finish off 2025 in style. twitch.tv/biggusbennus

Best Christmas present

Think I’ve found my Christmas game! Never played KOTOR before but 2 hours in and I’m really enjoying it!

Wow, this is incredible. Cow socks and mug, epic hot chocolate, blanket, and a cozy cotton Yankee Candle. Feeling very spoilt, huge thank you @marvelouseurope.bsky.social Started Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar yesterday and loved it. More soon! #gifted

Time for my 9-year streamiversary stream! Story of Seasons, Euro Truck Sim 2, Secret Santa opening, and maybe even playing Peak for the first time. Come by for the chaos! Giveaways too! twitch.tv/biggusbennus

Celebrating 9 years on Twitch tomorrow with a bunch of weird and wonderful things including the annual Secret Santa opening, a Euro Truck simulator drive (with wheel), giveaways, community games & a very exciting unboxing! Live from 2pm UK time!
