As I’ve reviewed mechanical keyboards, I’ve come to appreciate big swings on the form factor front. By big swings, I mean adding things like volume knobs, screens, and other things that can transform a mechanical keyboard into a unique centerpiece to one’s office and/or gaming space. As someone who loves all things classic tech, I want a combination of new-school LED-fueled accoutrements with trad...[Read More]
When I was younger, I was very interested in Eastern religions despite my Orthodox Christian upbringing. Things like Hinduism, Buddhism, Shintoism, and Taoism all piqued my interests in reassessing the world and what it meant to survive in a world of strife. Perhaps this stemmed from my familiarity and comfort with the notion of death, a conversation topic my now late father and I regularly discus...[Read More]
Chumps Preview is a special kind of post where we unofficially preview games in Early Access, Beta, or are otherwise “unfinished.” This kind of preview is meant to be a first impression rather than a definitive review where we provide a rating to determine a game’s value. As such, we fully expect a game covered in a Chumps Preview to have room for improvement, some bugginess/incompleteness, and ot...[Read More]

Epomaker’s Shadow-S is one of the newest additions to Epomaker’s line of mechanical keyboards. Boasting an LED screen and volume knob, it adds some additional aesthetic appeal for users who want something more out of their mechanical keyboards. I’ve been impressed with Epomaker’s attempts at changing up their lineup to appeal to consumers, especially the DynaTab 75X. Let’s see how this new tenkeyl...[Read More]

Turtle Beach’s Stealth 600 headset has underwent two generations of releases leading up to today. Their initial release featured channel mixing, some bass effects, decent battery life, and an impressive price point. Back in 2017, it was one of the best selling headsets of the PS4 and XB One generation because of how well it reinvented the headset space with surround sound quality. A few years late...[Read More]

Until recently, I’ve been primarily using medium-size keyboards, ranging from 75% (84-key) to 80% (87-key). The few full-sized keyboards I’ve used have been great for working, especially for inputting numbers into Excel and adding some additional buttons for casual games that didn’t require mouse input. The 65% and under keyboard territory has been largely foreign to me. I’ve been hesitant to test...[Read More]
It’s not often I see an entirely clear mechanical keyboard. Heck, clear cases for my devices and peripherals are far too rare these days, barring a handful of PC cases that cost an arm and a leg while looking amazing when equipped with equally expensive LED-adorned internals. I remember when my old Game Boys came in crystal-clear cases, giving me a glimpse into its techy insides. That clear aesthe...[Read More]
