Review : Beat Saber VR

Review : Beat Saber VR

I'm tired. Not from lack of sleep or because I overindulged in Thanksgiving dinner, which I did. It's because of Beat Saber, the new PSVR game from Hyperbolic Magnetism. Originally released earlier this year on Steam, it's finally made its way to the PlayStation. The game challenges you to slash…

Review : Everybody’s Golf : Hole-In-One

https://youtu.be/per6vny6XDQ The Hot Shots Golf franchise and I go back a long way. I began playing the titles on the PlayStation 2 with Hot Shots Golf 3, but the series itself began in 1997 on the original PlayStation. However, it’s been over five years since the last entry, World Invitational,…

Review : F1 2017

Review : F1 2017

Codemasters Birmingham ups the ante with their newest entry for the 2017 F1 season. In last year’s review we talked about how the updates that were desperately needed from 2015’s bare bones attempt made an impact with 2016 release. Not only does 2017 evolve from 2016, it sets up all…
