Mifo FiiTii Kido Headset Review

The foldable portable headset with a detachable microphone that is available in two colours, blue and pink and is currently available to buy via the Amazon website. Will These Be The Foldable Portable Choice For Kids? It was perfect timing to check out the FiiTii Kido as we were going on holiday and my son needed a headset to watch some movies and listen to some music on the plane. As much as I would have loved to test these out with a portable console, we do not currently have one in the household.

F1 22 – PS5 Review

Developed by Codemasters and published by EA, we bring you F1 22. Available on PC, Xbox and Playstation F1 22 is available now. A Lot Has Changed In The Past 20 Years! As you can probably guess by the above highlight, it really has been 20 years or more since I last picked up an F1 title. I haven't really avoided them but they have never been on top of my list to pick up. It could be worse, I could have said the last F1-style title I played was Exhaust Heat. I have no idea what is in store, but having started watching F1 again over the past couple of years I was excited to pick this title up. Gameplay I was slightly worried (along with being excited) about picking up F1 22 to review. To be honest, I am not the biggest fan of F1, I just enjoy racing in general.

A place where, no matter your background, gender, nationality or age you are accepted and people come together.
