Doctor Who: The Lonely Assassins Review – Don’t Blink

Doctor Who: The Lonely Assassins is a "Lost Phone" Style game developed by Kaigan Games, the same team that did Sara is Missing and the Simulacra series. It's published by Maze Theory and Another Indie, and it's available on Steam, Nintendo Switch, Google Play Store, and Apple Store. The game is based and expands on one of the more famous episodes of the modern era of Doctor Who Called Blink (From Episode 10 of the third season Of the Tenth Doctor Played by David Tennant.) where in the Wester Drumlins, you meet the Weeping Angels. Doctor Who: The Lonely Assassins - Don't blink. Blink and you're dead. They are fast. Faster than you can believe. Don't turn your back. Don't look away. And don't blink. Not only the lore of a Doctor Who game that piqued my interest, but the idea of having...

Cloud Gaming with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate – What Exactly Is It?

Cloud Gaming with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is the terrible name for a great service. Formerly known as Project XCloud, this is the free addition to Xbox Game Pass that allows you to play games on mobile devices. By heading to the Xbox Game Pass app on your phone you'll see a tab labelled "CLOUD". Now when I say phone, unfortunately at this stage it's only on Android. There is talk of a browser-based solution coming for iPhone users at a later date. Also, this will work on any compatible Android device; tablet or phone. In this post, we're going to be looking at cloud gaming with box game pass ultimate and asking the question; what exactly is it? Cloud Gaming With Xbox Game Pass Ultimate - How Does It Work? Ultimately, XCloud (sorry Microsoft, it's easier to write) streams the c...

Razer Kishi For Android Review

The Razer Kishi is a clip on mobile accessory that turns your smartphone into a portable console. Mobile gaming has often been frowned upon with hardcore gamers. A stigma that is soon to be obsolete as mobile chipsets, screens and cloud based gaming options continue to grow. It's likely no coincidence that the Razer Kishi is advertising alongside the likes of Xbox's Cloud Streaming service. It's clear from the layout and feel of the pad they've worked closely with Microsoft on this one. Sporting a compact design, but still evoking the traditional Xbox pad layout it does feel great in your hand. The flatter shape however does mean that sometimes it's a struggle to comfortably use some of the buttons. Design Fresh out of the box the Razer Kishi is surprisingly small and flat. It's v...

GameSir F4 Falcon Review

The F4 Falcon mobile controller instantly impressed. With it’s light-weight and foldable design, limited moving parts, clickable buttons, and cushioning pads to house your precious device, you can tell it’s been built with the user in mind and for serious hours of gaming involved. GameSir has created a masterpiece that will surely impress both casual and avid Mobile gamers. Design The F4 Falcon has been designed from the ground up to promote all aspects of the mobile accessory with a limited compromise for the end-user. Some key standout elements that came to my mind throughout my playtime with it: There are minimal moving parts: there are no pads to replicate a thumb press, instead, it’s initiated directly from the trigger press which reduces the time to react drastically - during...

Roccat Cross Headset Review – Something Like A Phenomenon?

I don't know about you but over the years I have had a few different gaming machines and being a bit of a family guy with small children I can't always get to enjoy my gaming in the evening feeling the explosions rippling across my carpet from the subwoofer nor the sounds of gunfire whistling around the room as I may wake them all up! As a result I have had a fair few headsets over the years and this has also led to the issue of having various types of headset to suit the device I am playing on. Enter the ROCCAT Cross, a stereo headset that offers multi-platform connectivity between your devices. On unboxing the Roccat Cross I was greeted by the headset as seen above along with 2 interchangeable leads and the instruction book. Of the 2 anti-tangle leads, one featured a 1.2m sin...
