The concept of constantly charging a wireless mouse via a mouse pad is not actually a new one, having been done many years prior.

Middle-Earth: Shadow of War Review – Shadow of Greed
God damn, Warner Bros., you couldn’t just release a game without finding a way to stuff microtransactions into it, could you?

Raid: World War II Review – Chasing That Nazi Gold
On paper, Raid: World War II sounds like a good idea: four players work together to attack German forces while snagging any Nazi gold they come across, their secret work sanctioned by the army who will quietly ignore any missing loot provided the squad does some serious damage along the way. Toss in comedic scenes…

Darkestville Castle Review – Demon Logic
Oh, adventure games! As a colossal part of my childhood, their modern resurgence has done my heart good. Suddenly we’re back to the days of witty dialogue, fun puzzles and mad stories complete with modern graphics.
