Headphones and keyboards, that pretty much sums up my September and October review session. Is that a bad thing? Probably not, as improving audio and typing situations during a busy holiday review season is never the wrong position to be in during holiday chaos. Okay, rambling aside, you’re reading this because you’re interested in the ROCCAT Syn Max Air headset. They are a Bluetooth headset that ...[Read More]
It certainly has been a month of keyboards from ROCCAT. First, I had the pleasure of reviewing the ROCCAT Vulcan Mini II keyboard which turned the heads of my many associates and worked like a charm in almost every manner. Now, I have had the pleasure of working with its bigger, shiner beefy brother the ROCCAT Vulcan II Max. It’s a full keyboard that features some beautiful aesthetics and some pra...[Read More]
Another year of gaming and another year for the latest The Jackbox Party Pack, and I’m not complaining about that at all. While last year’s pack wasn’t well-received by everyone, in fact, it might have been the biggest downer of the party pack bunch, the good folks at Jackbox Games are ready to make it up to you with this year’s edition. And make it up to you they did. Let’s get this rolling. What...[Read More]
I’m a huge fan of fighting games. At least the old-school type of fighting games, where you’re just choosing, fighting, and having fun. In the competitive gaming world of Street Fighters and Tekkens, it’s nice just to be able to sit down and enjoy a fight that is simple as it is entertaining. This is where Mane6’s Them’s Fightin’ Herds comes into play. It’s a game where a four-button mechanic syst...[Read More]
Back in the olden days of DVDs, the phrase ‘collector’s edition’ actually meant collector’s edition. It usually brought the best of the best with whatever movie wore that moniker, and it didn’t create an additional version of whatever was released. It was literally the ‘collector’s edition’ that meant it was top-tier. Don’t worry, I have a point. When the age of Blu-ray came about, everything was ...[Read More]
When EA and KOEI TECMO announced a partnership to create a hunting game called Wild Hearts, I was a bit skeptical. First, what type of hunting game was this going to be? Didn’t Cabela corner that market with its deer hunting ventures? Why would these companies have any interest in going this route? Second, what could both publishers possibly offer each other in this type of partnership? KOEI TECMO...[Read More]
SOEDESCO sent us a code for Airoheart about a week or so ago. The game was developed by Pixel Heart Studio and is their grand opus dedicated to classic action-RPGs like The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (which it borrowed heavily from, but in a respectful way). Anyway, Airoheart is a classic top-down RPG that feels familiar with its gameplay design and nostalgic about what it does for the st...[Read More]
Torturous games these days are generally big hits. I think Dead Cells started the most recent trend of platform-action games that are incredibly difficult to conquer, but at the same time add charm to the process of slowly driving yourself bonkers. One of the strongest parts of Dead Cells is its backend structure which makes the constant dabble in dangers worth the journey. Following the path that...[Read More]
