Industry Focus

Prateek leverages his experience in the consumer tech field to try out the latest and greatest AAA titles to see how they fare on different PCs. Additionally, he has a penchant for putting in a lot of hours in turn-based strategy games like the Sea of Stars and the Octopath Traveler series and helping gamers find the best equipment and armor to easily win boss fights.

Prateek also dabbles with FPS games and has spent over 2,000 hours playing BRs like Apex Legends. He is also a big fan of the Survival genre and can talk about games from the Metro series and more for days.

Favorite Games

Prateek routinely plays Apex Legends, which explains why he has over 2,000 hours in the game. He also has an affinity for RPGs, including old-school God of War games like Chains of Olympus and Ghost of Sparta and new-age, story-driven cinematic titles like The Last of Us.

Since getting a Steam Deck, he has developed a newfound appreciation for games with pixelated graphics, such as Dave the Diver, Sea of Stars, and Octopath Traveler II, too.

Favorite Console

Prateek has several gaming devices, including a high-end gaming laptop, a PS5, an Xbox Series S, and a Nintendo Switch OLED. Despite that, his most recent purchase, the Steam Deck OLED, is shaping up to be his favorite console as it allows him to emulate old-school retro games and play newer titles when on the go.
