Here we are; the classic conundrum. I have recently moved to London and, in about an hour’s time, I will move into a shared house. I have been gaming for many years; across Playstation, Gameboys and PCs and have always had a little dedicated gaming “area” to enjoy and call my own. Whether it’s a nice TV set up, a desk with my PC on it or whatever; it’s always been separate. Now, though, I face the possibility of having no room for that at all. I am having to make sacrifices to here, naturally, and gaming could well be one of them.

So I am exploring the possibility of a laptop to do my gaming on but there are, of course, a number of issues to take into account. First of all is the logistics of it; I do not have room for a desk or a TV in my new room. Secondly I would not want to put my PS4 in the living room with people I do not know that well yet (what if they think gaming sucks?!) It is a real issue, so I am now hunting for a laptop.
