I have reviewed several GameSir controllers at this time, and while they share many commonalities, each model brings its unique style to the table in both aesthetics and functionality. GameSir's latest G7 Pro is similar, but it brings more innovation. The G7 Pro is GameSir's flagship controller, which succeeds the G7 SE and is kinda competitive to the Tarantula Pro, which was one of the most overwhelming controllers I have ever used. Nonetheless, the G7 Pro simplifies that and still manages to bring a lot to the table, but it's important to consider all its rivals to see if it […]

Soulike games are truly everywhere nowadays. Back when FromSoftware's Souls series did not have the immense popularity it enjoys nowadays, the release of any game inspired by the series was an event in itself. However, today's increased offerings for hardcore action RPGs have led to some stagnation for the genre. While many Souslike games released in the past few years are solid games, very few of them are true standouts, as the vast majority of these games opt to stay within the boundaries of a tried and true formula that is starting to get a little tiring. In this regard, […]

Its latest offering is the Storm A2, which succeeds its most popular headset, called Storm G2, which is a fancy RGB gaming headset for gamers. The Storm A2 appears to be a more serious design, intended for professionals and perhaps audiophiles who seek solid audio delivery and functionality that can be used across multiple […]

Nostalgia is only going to get you so far, when revisiting something from your youth. Sometimes it'll get you too far, and as a critic, it's important to be aware of those instances, so you're not ignoring the faults in a game or product to the detriment of your work. Thankfully, that's not something I had to worry about at all with Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4 when I sat down to begin playing it for my review. I have practically no nostalgic love for the series. I was the right age to play them growing up, I had the […]

Despite being the franchise that started it all for Nintendo, Donkey Kong has never been as meticulously managed as, say, Mario or Zelda. For decades, DK was largely entrusted to teams outside Nintendo’s core Japanese development structure, with the likes of Rare, Retro Studios, and the occasional third party offering their own varying spins on the franchise. That said, between a major role in the recent Super Mario Bros. movie and new Universal Studios attractions, it seems clear Nintendo is interested in returning Donkey Kong to true top-tier franchise status. As part of this, Nintendo is rolling out Donkey Kong […]

Regular mid-towers are a thing of the past. Most PC case manufacturers are now experimenting with unusual designs, stuff that most people would never even think of. Surely, PC cases do not hold as big of a status in our minds as a CPU or GPU, but they can indirectly influence the performance of a computer. Case manufacturers are becoming more creative when it comes to airflow and we have seen so many of them that it feels like there is no limit to unique designs. Once such a design is seen on the OmnyX mid-tower chassis by COUGAR, which […]

Intel entered the discrete graphics card market two years ago with its Alchemist architecture. The launch was highly anticipated, as the company entered a market dominated by NVIDIA and AMD for decades. But not everything went as planned. Intel's Arc A-series "Alchemist" graphics cards launched after much delay & even a delayed launch couldn't help the blue team's case as it was plagued with severe driver issues, software problems, and general gaming issues. This left a sour note in the minds of folks who had been waiting to see what Intel had to offer. Following the launch, there were several […]

AMD's high-performance CPU journey continues on the desktop platform with the arrival of the Zen 5 core architecture. The new architecture has several fundamental changes that allow huge performance uplifts in single-core and multi-core applications. These can be attributed to the 16 percent IPC improvement that the new architecture has on offer. Replacing the AMD Ryzen 7000 "Zen 4" CPUs, the Ryzen 9000 "Zen 5" CPUs do not change the core configurations but enhance them in certain ways. The architectural upgrades allow Zen 5 chips to run cooler, consume lower power, and support the latest features on existing and upcoming […]

So, for today's review, we will be trying out the ASRock Radeon RX 9070 XT Taichi OC, which has an MSRP of $849.99 US.

The company has a diverse portfolio of Mini PCs, Players, and gadgets, but the core focus is on the Mini PC segment, which includes both Intel and AMD options. While we have looked at several of Beelink's Mini PC options in the past, ranging from AMD & Intel CPUs, the company has introduced a new Intel model recently, the SEi13 Pro, which features the Intel Core i9-13900HK CPU along with strong specifications.

The DDR5 memory segment has been seeing a lot of action as it gets standardized across all PC platforms. With memory prices dropping and the latest platforms becoming affordable, memory makers are offering new solutions constantly.

It's been two years since the AMD AM5 motherboard platform and the 600-series motherboards launched. Since its launch, the platform has seen the launch of several CPUs in the Ryzen 7000, Ryzen 8000, and Ryzen 9000 families. While the 600-series motherboards provide great features & compatibility with newer Zen 5 CPUs, motherboard makers are always looking to enhance user experiences through the latest technologies, so AMD has introduced a new chipset line called the 800-series.

Well, I haven't reviewed laptops in a while now, especially the type of laptops that are on my desk right now. There's a company in the market called "X-Plus" that offers portable hardware in "very unique" form factors, whether it is handhelds, laptops, or mini-PCs. We have reviewed the company's GSeries1 gaming handheld in the past, which was basically an Intel N100 unit with a massive IPS screen slapped right onto it. This time, the company was kind enough to send their "2-in-1" laptop, called the Piccolo Series81, and upon the first-look, the first thought that came into my mind […]

The company also introduced its follow-up, the T705, which features up to 14.5 GB/s speeds.

Gamesir is one of the renowned companies offering an extensive portfolio of portable gaming products. One of their specialties is gaming controllers, especially the wireless ones. We have extensively reviewed several of their models in the past, but the SuperNova most likely exceeds them all, not just in the connectivity experience but also in the user-friendliness. Gamesir was kind enough to provide us with a review unit of the SuperNova controller.

Popular mouse manufacturers are racing to deliver the best possible sensor, ergonomics, and customizability for gaming, but Ragnok has different plans. Instead of competing in the same category, the company is thinking out of the box to offer more "immersive" gaming experiences. After releasing its first gun-mouse, the FireGrip, the company has debuted a brand new gaming mouse called "ErgoStrike 7", which is drastically different from the previous one. Not only does it resemble an actual gun, but it also offers much more than the FireGrip. In this post, we will go through the specs, features, and performance of the […]

When I first saw that Sifu developer Sloclap would be shifting gears to make a football game with Rematch, I would be lying if I didn't say I was a little disappointed. I like football and sports games well enough. I don't necessarily play EA Sports FC every year, but I've always liked hitting the pitch with my friends, and getting between the posts to make some killer saves, since my preferred position is playing goalie. I loved Sifu when it released in 2022. It was one of my favorite games that year because of how mechanically tight the gameplay […]
