When I really think about how I spend my time writing here on PC Gamer, there’s actually not all that much of it that goes into straightforward recommendations. Between interviews, editorials about the games industry, features about PC gaming history and a spot of news here and there, it’s not all that often I just get to say: “Hey, here’s something I really like. Check it out!”
Considering how noisy the internet can be, it’s inevitable that when we do share these bits of our lives they’re quickly buried and forgotten. This is a permanent home for my favorites: Games, movies, gadgets, recipes, maybe even life tips? Before we get to what I like, though, a bit more on what I’m like:
Wes has been covering games and hardware for more than 10 years, first at tech sites like The Wirecutter and Tested before joining the PC Gamer team in 2014. Wes plays a little bit of everything, but he'll always jump at the chance to cover emulation and Japanese games.
When he's not obsessively optimizing and re-optimizing a tangle of conveyor belts in Satisfactory (it's really becoming a problem), he's probably playing a 20-year-old Final Fantasy or some opaque ASCII roguelike. With a focus on writing and editing features, he seeks out personal stories and in-depth histories from the corners of PC gaming and its niche communities. 50% pizza by volume (deep dish, to be specific).
His lasting legacy on this earth may be using WASD wrong for his entire life.

You should buy Ace Combat 7 when it's on sale, which might be right now as you're reading this. If it's not, chuck it on the ol' wishlist. I'm a convert to this over-the-top, anime-as-hell flight combat series, and want everyone to play this 2019 entry ahead of Ace Combat 8.
I travel internationally often enough to have opinions about power adapters, and I really like this one by Ceptics. It's not fancy, which is a big part of why I like it! For your next vacation free yourself from the annoyance of those oversized, all-in-one adapters and pack exactly the plugs you need, instead.
