You don’t have to be married to understand these dilemmas - if you live with other people or share your life with other people, these will be familiar too. Did this week’s Friday Feature miss any classic dilemmas? Pop them in the comments.

nice of Rob to finally admit that Dave is his work husband
I'd never shipped them before now. But seeing it on screen? It's perfect!
Really just a matter of time
@@coyoteartist what do you mean? that's clearly Rob's actual mother
And how do you deal with the fact, he's also his mother?
@@coyoteartist whatever they like to do is their business
The return of Friday Features, with old running jokes AND Delsin, is the best thing that's ever happened to me.
I know how you feel. I missed these so much. They used to be one of the highlights of my week. I'm so glad they're back.
We're back, baby!
It was okay when the other person was doing it but this is how the Friday features should be
Delsin is the Access we watch for. We thought it was the metal gear solid board but no, it is Delsin
These videos were the breakout success for this channel in my opinion, it was a huge blow when they stopped making them. I stopped watching a lot of their videos back then. So glad to be back!
One I expected to hear is the spouse talking over important cutscenes, ones that can’t be paused but you aren’t 100% sure.
“If I press pause will the cutscene pause, or will it skip it?”
One of the most relatable Friday Features to date. “Oh honey I’m tired. I’m going to bed early.” (Perfect) “okay good night!”
Midway of that sentence I usually have turned on my PS5, controller in hand, scrolling through menus picking a game and going "Ok! I'll stay up for a while longer."
Then about two hours later, the phone rings "When are you coming to bed?"
'I'll just need to get to a save point."(which are pretty much nonexistent in games these days, but that excuse gives a few extra minutes of gaming.)
Yeah, I am lucky in that my wife crawls into bed pretty early so I normally have 2 to 3 hours of playtime at night.
My girlfriend and I have almost opposite sleep schedules cause of work so say if she goes to sleep at 10am I'm up doing stuff till 8pm or so before I go to sleep. So I can usually get 6 or so hours in before I do stuff around the house
Divorced Gamers don't have these problems 🤣
This is me right now. Stop for a smoke break and saw the video and here you are!
Number 7 is a genuine choice between extra two hours of sleep time or playing for a couple of hours at night. A choice you will regret in the morning and promise yourself not to repeat it anymore... until next evening comes.
Every time😂
Yup, that one's for everyone.
Always the same decision, always the same regret, always I learn nothing. 😅
I felt this.
Nothing lasts forever, I know, but having regular Friday Features back is a glorious thing.
My wife surprised me and bought me a ps5 and when she came home I screamed in such excitement, can’t remember the last time I was that happy. I got injured on the job as a firefighter and now disabled and gaming is my sanctuary.
Is your injury permanent?
Yes, it made me disabled.
The good thing, the only good thing, I’m now retired and can’t play games morning, noon and night.
Now I'm imagining Rob doing an IRL version of that bit from Final Fantasy 7 where you have to get downstairs without alerting Aerith to the fact that you're sneaking out.
God forbid I interrupt her watching an episode of General Hospital from 1987. But, just when an incredibly emotional cut scene comes on like the one with Arthur Morgan, sitting at the train station, talking to the nun, she HAS to know at THAT very moment if I can take the trash out
That does not seem like a healthy relationship. 😅
Sure after the cut scene. I don’t interrupt your time so don’t interrupt mine
I've had this very conversation. But me and my wife are exceptionally understanding of each other.@@Mohawk_Productions
Married my husband who I met while playing Final Fantasy XI. We both still play games.
We have our own ps5s, our own TVs, and the added benefit of setting up console sharing so we can access each other's game libraries. We have one PS extra subscription so we can share that too. 👍
I generally have the instance where I get the go ahead to play a game and as soon as I sit down and turn the console on, "Can you come here?" or "I need help with something."
Omg, how i misswd the old friday feature videos, and now its like a reunion, with the jokes and the stageplay, its amazing
I saw your 107 hours in Final Fantasy 7, so apparently you still found the time
After a particular age trying to enjoy gaming even for an hour(if you’re lucky) feels just divine
Lol yep with a 2 and a half year old & 3 month old. So for me @ night so all 3 are a sleep
Or sketchy…..what did you forget to do?
Without even watching the video yet, I know I'm going to laugh and cry 😭
The trick is not having kids 🤪😎
It has nothing to do with age. It's two particular decisions, and you know exactly what they are, that determines how much free time you have.
And those are two decisions I made my choices on almost two decades ago. I'm 32.
This is a great modern list with all the nostalgia of the classic Friday Features. Delsyn rodent, Rob's mum and just classic gags, expertly written and presented. Bravo Rob and team!
I married a gamer, we solved the problem by having two PS5's linked to two TV's in the front room. And her dad is a massive gamer too so when the in-laws come over we play something together or he watches / gives tips or watch UA-cam playthroughs.
It does get tricky when you both want to play the same game but you can't get to it but your wife can so you have to avoid the front room for fear of spoilers.
Living the dream
That’s kinda pay to win.
That's the dream right there.
My husband and I did this! Monster Hunter World didn’t have a couch co-op mode so we had two consoles and 2 tvs and listened to our games with headphones ^_^. These days we usually pc game together though - there just aren’t enough couch co-op games out there as we’d prefer to play on one screen together if we could on the console anyway …
Same :) it also works when the kids wanna coop games 😂 we set it up in such a way you can’t see each others tv
This one is a classic. “Games, ALL THE TIME - ME ME ME ME ME”
I feel seen.
That intro was a rollercoaster of emotions, that culminated in euphoria with the "Hello, you've caught me..."
Can't believe this is back!
That non-gamer dude trying to marry Rob's daughter is going to have a literal hell of a time.
The occasional bit of game rage? Occasional? Classic Rob.
"You can call me dad if you like" made me spit my drink everywhere.
Reminds me of Hazbin hotel.
I recently got engaged myself, and these all speak to me! Nice to see the Friday Features back again!
Congratulations! 🎉
Although I think this one is more universal: Ask if they need anything, get told 'no', sit down to play, instantly get called to 'come here a moment' or 'I need help with something' every single time without fail
I've been single for a year or so now after being in an out of relationships for a decade, and I can honestly say I've never done so much gaming since I was a teenager.
lovely to see your Mum is alive and well Robert. one thing you missed is the request to "pause the game" when you cant...... like in Diablo 4 when you are in the middle of a boss battle
"I wanted those bubbles"
"Should have been faster, then"
"Yeah, you WOULD know about doing things too fast, wouldn't you?"
😂 They had me at "I wanted those bubbles" 🤣
You cannot imagine how joyful it was to hear “ROBERT?!” again after so long 😂❤️
I’m loving this Friday Feature renaissance. I watch everything Access put out, but these are the videos that made me a subscriber all those years ago. Rob is doing an amazing job. Keep up the fantastic work. 🎉
Can I relate to this? No.
Will I watch it and have a good laugh hoping future me relates, absolutely 😂.
Love a Friday feature!
"You can call me dad if you like"😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😮
Alastor moment.
I'm just glad he didn't say "daddy"
Absolutely sent me
"Video games all day me me me me me" That is such a relatable mood honestly Rob😅😂
Love this! Dave feeding Delsin, the return of Rob’s mum “Robert!”
and relating to the last one lol
Leblanc's law truly never fails, THAT minigame is emblematic of every randomly erotic non sequitur in gaming.
Petition to permit an alternate name for it: The Emperors Law. Look I just needed the platinum for bg3 ok 😅🦑
@@heypesky That just reminded me of a couple other trophies, one from Yakuza 0 literally called "... I did it for the trophy" that you get for watching a sexy video and another from NieR Automata called "What are you doing?" for looking up 2B's skirt a bunch of times.
It's like you're watching an awesome 10/10 anime and right when someone walks in the scene changes to something lewd :D
@@Anime-DoomI got the I did it for the trophy one right when my girlfriend walked in the room. I had to give a few minute explanation that I was playing a serious crime drama and that what just happened was part of said seriousness
OMG, this is brilliant! Laughed so much! Love Friday features' back! Happy Friday and weekend, PS Army ✌️😎
Married and a dad of a 10 month old baby here: I can game pretty much exclusively during evenings while sacrificing sleep or during nap times, online gaming is no-go since I need to be able to pause at any given time and there might be days or weeks without any game time at all. Still I'm pretty happy I can still play games even though my life has massively changed over the years
At least you and Rob get it, when you have children to take care of, you can't spend your time frivolously. You'd be surprised how many people consider being married with children (cue the iconic theme tune) a life prison sentence with no chance of parole.
@@deathbykonami5487 I'd say it's not that bad. Sure you'll have less time to play but there are still some moments for it and you also appreciate those moments a lot more. And when your kids get older they become perfect gaming buddies
Facts same here as a married man and a father playing games is so minimal now
lol lmao "I know every dodgy floor board", "I know how to mute my PS5". having a wife and 2 kids, that is soooo relatable!
This brings me so much joy seeing the return of Friday Features! Always funny and most of all extremely relatable! Thank you access team!
Life got busy and I drifted away from PlayStation Access over the past couple of years, but recently with the style of videos and the Friday features I find myself eagerly awaiting every upload.
Leblanc's Law took me out 😂😂😂😂😂 The Friday Features never miss!
As a gamer about to turn 60, being divorced and whose children are adults, I am one of those laughing.
That's hilarious lol. Happy gaming, my friend!
I'm almost 50, still gaming.😀
51 go way bk to the atari 2600 still loving it,she tells me to grow up!balls to her 😅
My husband and I are both gamers, and one dilemma I find is trying to avoid spoilers when we're both playing the same game but at different times or one is getting further than the other. We also have two children, our eldest who seems to have been born a gamer and never stopped lol, so we're basically a gaming family.
I personally would never have got with a non-gamer because gaming has been a love of mine since I was about 4 and it's amazing to share the hobby and talk about it together. If we go on holiday, we always take a portable with us such as the Switch or Steam Deck so we can play occasionally.
I’ve been with my wife since 1999 & 4 kids later my wife knows that gaming is part of the package, she doesn’t play games but she always watches me play, she enjoys watching the narrative of the games
You are a lucky person, bless your wife
@@elshubi52 she tells me that everyday 😂
@3:22 I like to think that this is how Rob views The Great British Bake Off
the only thing that would make the clip better with the mom walking in is after saying "That's exactly what it looks like" is if the mom said "Your timing is off." and walks away.
Absolutely brilliant Rob. Was laughing all the way through. I have had to say goodbye, see you soon to my PlayStation before going on holiday. Even had to find an arcade to scratch my gaming itch whilst away. My partner is a gamer so have experienced a lot of what you’ve described 😂. Keep up the good work my friend.
Im not married but me and my partner solved this issues by buying 4 different consoles and 2 different tvs to beat these very problems
Now that's a partner. 😊
Mamma Dave! Oh how I have missed you. As a married gamer I can relate to most of these 7 dilemmas.
My favorite married gaming thing is when my wife asks questions with super vague descriptions "what's that game called you played with the guy and the guns?" or sometimes it's so specific you forgot about the one part she saw you play. "What's that game where there's a space shuttle with monsters?" (After asking several questions I realized she meant Prey 2017.)
Words cannot describe how happy I am to see a new Friday Feature in my feed
The opening alone gets a thumbs up from me
The whole skit ending in "is it the blue recycling bin tomorrow?" haha it's like Moss from the IT Crowd: "It's too real, Roy. It's too real!"
Dang, you guys are on a roll with these Friday Features lately. I've been absolutely dying of laughter. This list, in particular, is one I can relate to strongly (especially the part about having to sit through nonsense tv shows my gf likes when I'd rather be gaming).
I know most people have already mentioned it but Friday features like this were the reason for me subscribing 10 years ago. Good job Rob, the team is great but this is simply phenomenal.
I had a seriously good chuckle for point 7. It hits home too hard. Excellent list as usual Rob! I'm so happy Friday Features are back!
I sometimes play my PS5 in bed on remote play once my wife falls asleep. Stick my headphones on, remote play to my MacBook and then zero game rage has taught me to play my PS5 like a ninja. Way quieter than sneaking downstairs and then putting the kettle on. Great Video Rob!
It brings me so much joy to see you making this style of video again. Oh, oh, how I have missed Friday Features!
Thank goodness for two tellies! I game on the one upstairs in the bedroom, leaving the rest of the fam to argue over the one in the living room :D
My personal dilemma, though, is working out what's a 'reasonable' amount of time to play. Sometimes, an hour just doesn't cut it. I live for the nights when there's football on because then I've got 2-3 clear hours to indulge.
This is genuinely one of the best you've done. So funny, and every point is so spot on. Rob, you're a master. Also Dave feeding Delsen killed me 😂
Absolutely had me (and my wife who could hear this video from the other room) howling 😂 1 to add to the list is how blimmin' long it takes to get through a game like HFW. Took me about 5 months to get through 84 hours! And I tried really hard to play whenever I could! I was recently sick off work and when I realised it meant I could play games all day, I pretty much jumped for joy!
I just love that they are comitting to Friday features again , they are what actually got me in love with this channel
Yay, Friday Feature is back! This put a huge smile on my face :-). I've missed these so much. Thank you Rob and crew. Fridays have just become a whole lot brighter.
The marriage part isn't as big a hindrance to gaming as this pesky working thing is.
Truth
Having Rob as my father-in-law and watching old Friday features together is my new goal in life!
As for my hardships with a significant other: they always say how they want to play video games with me and how they beat Halo when they were six years old, but now they're clearly not interested in ANY game genre and can't move a 3D model up a ladder.
Dood!.. I spat my tea with the lols at.. "you can call me dad, if you like.." god level timing
Let me be very clear. This is the OG Friday Feature energy that I've been missing for years. KEEP IT UP GUYS!!! DONT HAND FRIDAYS OFF TO ANY NEW HIRES!!!
These have been absolutely brilliant from start to finish! So much clever subtle and nuanced humour woven into these and delivered superbly.
This is one of the most laugh out loud funny episdoes I've seen in a while. Well done!
Rosie's posh in-law voice is weirdly intimidating 😳 Great video, I was dying laughing for most off it!
It warms my soul to see all the classic elements of Friday features again. Delsin, “Rob’s mom”, a recurring game tally. *chef’s kiss* Fridays are more fun again!
Thank you for reminding me of my age, I just turned 27 last week 😂 My cousin has always told me that I’d have the easier time finding a significant other, since usually the girlfriend/wife is the one who doesn’t play video games 😅
I’m so happy to see the old Friday Features back! Even Delsin is there!
A Friday Feature about gaming while married on my 6th anniversary. Seems like a sign I should play more games today
The return of the Rob Friday Feature to Access gives me the same happy warmth inside that I get when firing up the Lord of The Rings Extended Editions to herald the start of my Christmas Holidays. You bow to no-one.
Thank you rob. I have missed the friday features so much. They got me thru the weekends. Thank you for bringing them back.
When I heard “hello, you’ve caught me” I teared up a little bc it’s a return to greatness
Rob is simply on another level with the Friday Features. I am so glad they are back.
Omg this is so me. My husband is quite supportive of my hobby, which is fortunate. He can't play, and wouldn't even if he wanted to, but he watches me, or reads his kindle next to me. The second point is true too, having to take turns with my kids and all the fun arguments that come with it.
The last entry reminds me of staying up until 7am playing KH3 with headphones in on release day because I didn't want my housemates interrupting 😂 I only stopped when one of them came down to breakfast and asked me if Id slept at all
This is an amazing Friday Feature! Couldn't stop laughing at all the skits, I could watch a whole season of the chaotic dysfunctional life of the Rob and Dave couple 😂
I have literally stayed at home and gamed for a solid week rather than go on holiday. And I mean solid, no tv, no movies, just me and first playthrough of Dragons Dogma Dark Arisen on PS4; and my wife supported me in that decision. She didn’t want to listen to me moan about lousy internet service, it being too hot/bright/early for a week, and I didn’t want to go.
She also was fine with me turning 30 square meter shed into a bespoke gaming space, complete with log burner, wood panel walls, and a truly RIDICULOUS sound system.
Folks get yourself a missus like mine and the gaming worlds can be yours.
Absolutely stellar Friday Feature! :) Awesome job - and even Rob's Mom is back :D
When my wife wants to watch her shows on our gaming TV:
"Well alright! It's Friday so I'll be spending the evening with Rob and his list."
This was so well made. Everything y’all have done has been high quality but this, this brought so much nostalgia. It was like watching a video from 2013 all over again ❤❤❤ #PODSQUAD
“You can call me dad if you like” 😂 god I love Friday features
Good video, loved all the little skits and things. Rob sneaking about like a cartoon character was golden!
This hit on so many levels. I showed my wife this video... as she's like... did you memorize the path to the living room in the dark?😂
The return of the Friday Features is glorious!!! :D :D Absolutely these hit close to home xD
Friday features being back is amazing. great to see Robs mum still checking up on what he is playing too 👌
After nearly 2yrs of not watching videos on this channel, I return to a Friday feature, all is well 😊
One of the finest friday features in a while. Excellent work, Rob, its so good to have these back
This has to be one of my favourite friday features of all time 😂 the throwbacks, Delsin and hilarious checklist made me smile all the way through and the opening was epic 😂 all very relatable too, plus I'm actually getting married next Year?! These tips will save me and my true love (my ps5). Amazing 😎
“The single player chow mein” made me howl with laughter 😆
Loved it, excellent Friday Features, one of my fav'!!😆😄
Rob's acting in the opening sequence is Oscar worthy!
Every one of these are spot on! I love the LeBlanc callout 😂
A Friday Feature with cameos from Delsin AND the return of Rob's mom?!
You spoil us, Playstation Access! 😂
I love these Friday Features being back! I've missed catching Rob doing something, the tallies, and Dave in his dress 😂
Totally up there with number one right now 😂, one tv in the living room and don’t want to quit half way through a key mission to watch NCIS 😂
Fantastic video! I saw an article saying you can expect consoles and gaming setups in old folks homes in the not so distant future!!
You guys absolutely smashed it with this one. So good!! And super relatable 😂🤣 plus love to see the return of Rob’s Mum 🫶🏻
Friday feature has not been this good for too long. Laughed so hard watching this, so relateable!
Thank you so much Rob for the awesome video as usual ❤
When my husband and I both enjoy a game we will literally trade off every hour, watching the other play. We even did this back when World of Warcraft came out and we were first dating 🎮💕
Next to getting home from work the Friday Feature is the best part of Friday
