Get to know Vanessa

Hi there,

I'm just your average Auckland girl with a passion for gaming. I'm autistic, so gaming isn't just a hobby for me. It helps me stay grounded and connected, no matter what comes my way.

My gaming journey began at age 5 with a PS2 controller in my hands. SpongeBob games were my first love. As time went on, my love for gaming only grew. When the PS3 came out, my brother let me have a go, and Tekken became my new obsession.

The excitement peaked when the PS4 was released. I couldn't get one straight away, but Christmas 2018 changed everything. I woke up to find a shiny new PS4 under the tree. Since then, it's been a huge part of my life.

Now, in 2024, I'm keen to try the new PS5 Access Controller. I'm curious to see how it stacks up. Gaming is my escape when the world gets too heavy. It relaxes and entertains me, grounding me when I need it most. Let's see how it plays out!
