By Darryn Bonthuys
February 18, 2020
in :  Features, Gaming, Reviews
20

Dreams is so many ideas at any given time. It is ambition given form, imagination given vibrant life and unlimited possibility waiting to be shaped with your hands. Unique and inspiring, there’s no other game that even comes close to reaching Dreams and its intuitive approach to creating content.

It’s a chilly morning in London, my South African is showing as I wonder if four layers of clothing will be enough for the cold and I’ve got a mission in front of me: Grill Chris Harris and Paddy McGuiness on the new season of Top Gear and find out just what fans can expect from the show. Having recently …

The Last Number – How Hitman 2 took assassination to a sophisticated new height of precision

You’re a waiter. A masseuse. A five star army general. You’re any one of a hundred deliciously different disguises at any given time, moving your way through a world that is surprisingly wary of anything out of the ordinary (like the divine flavour of Debonairs pizza) and more than willing to react with extreme prejudice should you step out of line and break character. You’re a master of disguise, weaving your way through targets and administering a lethal comeuppance to the mark that you’ve been paid to remove from the mortal coil. In other words, you’re a Hitman.

Street Fighter V: Champion Edition review – Akuma Matata

By Geoffrey Tim

in :  Features, Gaming, Reviews

Very nearly everything that’s been released for Street Fighter V in the last four years is part of the Champion Edition upgrade. That’s 40 characters, 34 stages and over 200 costumes included in a bargain-priced package. With the massive roster and the addition of secondary V-skills adding even more variety, this is the game Street Fighter V was always meant to be.

7 subreddits you should definitely avoid if you’re spending Valentine’s Day alone

Tomorrow may see couples from across the world remember why they fell in love, but there’s plenty of us who’ll be shaking our fists at Hallmark and refusing to allow that light into our lives. We’ll be alone, celebrating Valentine’s Day as Odin intended: In our underwear, covered in crumbs of knock-off Lindt chocolate and watching Rambo: First Blood yet again. Alternatively, one could surf the internet and forget about Cupid by dipping into the hive of scum and villainy that is Reddit.

How to move Pokémon from Pokémon Bank to Pokémon Home

Happy Pokémon Home day! If there’s one complaint that Pokémon Sword and Shield players have had, it’s that it’s kind of hard to actually trade Pokémon with complete strangers when there’s no solid line of communication. Pokémon Home, Nintendo’s new hub for all things related to trading in the world of pocket monsters, aims to fix that problem. While it will cost you a few pokebucks to use it, the amount of functionality and features on offer more than make it a worthwhile subscription to add to your ever growing list of monthly digital tithes.

If you desperately need a new Rugby game to fill the void, you might still consider picking Rugby 20 up, but even then you might be better off going back to Rugby Challenge and playing that with some of the new community squads.

Almost two years since it was released, and nothing on the racing game scene today can even come close to touching the masterpiece that Playground games unleashed on a fandom that wasn’t ready for the pure perfection of V8 horsepower that was raring to go.

Crucial X8 1TB Portable SSD review and giveaway – Transfer up to a 1GB/s with blazing fast external storage

You don’t really expect external storage to be fast. Portable storage is there for its convenience, but often they have such slow transfer speeds that using them for anything beyond the transfer of a few smaller files is a bit of a drag. Largely because of their very nature, they have to use an interface that’s not especially fast. The X8 from Crucial fixes that dilemma, provided you have the right hardware.

Netherrealm has done a fantastic job so far with their season pass content and bonus characters, and while it may cost a few pennies more, this version of the Joker is well worth the investment if you’re serious about your character options now that he’s busy establishing himself in the big fighting game picture.
