I have been playing games since a very early age, thanks to my Dad's encouragement. I've been an Xbox gamer since the very beginning, the Master Chief is to thank for that. I'm also a big Nintendo geek, and my other half is a PlayStation nut. I'll play pretty much anything in any genre (although FIFA and COD maybe pushing it).

10 Seconds to Win! Review

10 Seconds to Win! is as formulaic as they come, but remains an enjoyable little platformer, despite the fact it’s all over in a flash.

Halo: Epitaph – Book Review

Despite not matching the breakneck pace of the games, Halo: Epitaph is a fitting tribute to one of the best characters from the Reclaimer Saga.

Manic Mechanics Review

Manic Mechanics is an enjoyable repair ‘em up, at least whilst it lasts.

Tomb Raider I-III Remastered Starring Lara Croft has to be thought of as a game of its time, not a modern release.

Speed Crew manages to feel different enough despite opting for a tried and tested format.

KontrolFreek OMNI Performance Thumbsticks for Xbox One Review

KontrolFreek have been making Performance Thumbsticks for Xbox for longer than I care to remember, pushing out a multitude of products with varying features, specifications and ideas. You can get high-rise concaved designs, you can caress your thumbs with mid-rise convex options, and you can put the lowest of height increments on your standard controller, giving an increase in grip, surface area, feel and overall user experience. It is with the latter in which the OMNI come into their own.

It’s the Charging Station which is most exciting and what PowerA are delivering to market with their Dual (Duo) Charging Station is good. It works near perfectly, it keeps your controllers fully charged for when they are needed and, honestly, it looks pretty decent as well.
