• Corsair SP2500 2.1 Speaker Review – Something The Neighbors Won’t Appreciate

    Despite having been on the market for a while now Corsair’s SP2500 speaker set continues to sell pretty well and remain highly regarded. After going hunting for a serious audio upgrade I managed to snag a set of those bad boys and decided that since they were there anyway I might as well review them.…

  • Fable Legends Is Going To Be Free-To-Play

    Microsoft and Lionhead today made a slightly surprising announcement; the forthcoming Fable Legends, a 4v1 game where a team of heroes battles a player-controlled villain, is going to be free-to-play. Here’s how the cross-platform Xbox One and PC title will play out: at launch there will be four heroes available, and every two weeks those…

  • Batman: Arkham Knight Earns Itself A Mature Rating And A New Trailer

    Batman can get pretty dark sometimes, as any long-time reader of the comics will know. Hell, back in the day Batman actually killed folk and didn’t think anything of carrying a gun into a combat until his character was changed, bringing in the no killing vow. While the last two Arkham games from Rocksteady have…

  • Sennheiser G4me One Review – Is G4me Even A Word? It’s Not, Is It? That’s Cheating

    Reviewing the Game One from Sennheiser after having just tackled their Game Zero model is a difficult task indeed as they’re incredibly alike, meaning I’ve already said many of the things that could be talked about here.

A helpful reader pointed out my mistake, and thus I apologise absolutely. It was…

  • Archos 50b Platinum Review – Phones Smarter Than Me Terrify Me

    Phones aren’t exactly my thing. In fact I have to admit that I still own a nice but very out of date Sony Ericsson flip-phone that has served me most faithfully for a few years now. As a technology lover smartphones intrigue me greatly and I’ve always admired what they can do, but I’ve never…

  • The Banishment Of Review Scores

    Those who frequent this site regularly may have noticed that my review of Grim Fandango Remastered didn’t include a score at the end of it. Now, I’ve done the occasional review before with no score attached to it for various reasons, usually mentioned in the article itself, but the Grim Fandango Remastered review marks something…

  • Avalanche Studios Unleash Just Cause 3 Trailer

    Avalanche Studios have unleashed the first ever trailer for the forthcoming Just Cause 3. Basically, explosions. Lots and lots of ‘splosions.

  • Grim Fandango Remastered Review – Not So Grim After All

    Platforms: PC, PS4, Vita Reviewed On: PC Developer: Double Fine Publisher:  Double Fine Singleplayer: Yes Multiplayer: No Despite being mostly classified as a cult classic, and therefore by description having a relatively small if dedicated fanbase, very few people who have been gaming for a while are unaware of Grim Fandango. It holds a special…
