Windjammers Review
Call me a big softy when it comes to nostalgia. Classic games that are pretty much untouched in function are just the best when they make it to current generation hardware. Well, barely touched that is, as is the case with Windjammers, which has been brought back to life on the PlayStation 4 by developer DotEmu.While this might be the shortest review I’ve written in some time, mainly due to the fa...[Read More]

F1 2017 Review
One of my first memories of watching Formula 1 (F1) was the 1992 Monaco Grand Prix. A charging Nigel Mansell, in the iconic Williams FW14B, chased down Ayrton Senna who inherited the lead after a loose wheel nut forced Mansell to pit. Coming out on fresh tyres Mansell set a lap record which was two seconds quicker than Senna and with three laps to go was right behind the Brazilian. However, despit...[Read More]
NHL ’18 – Beta Impressions (short and sweet)
If you believe the conventional wisdom about three being a crowd is incorrect, then the new NHL Threes mode that makes its debut in the NHL 18 beta is worth your attention. As the name suggests, you take the ice with two other skaters to enjoy a faster, more open style of play. The pace, of course, is certainly more arcade than faithful simulation. There are modifiers that affect how many points a...[Read More]

A little bit about my background — I ‘lettered’ in golf in high school before it was cool to lette...[Read More]
