This Kiwi game has gone global on Playstation

  A month ago, Sustainable Coastlines released a video game called Pick Up Quick! in collaboration with Playstation. The game allows people to virtually clean litter from Kiwi coastlines in Nelson and Kapiti Island and was populated using data from real beach cleanups. Seems simple, right? Well, it is. But it’s also gained a bunch…

The Last of Us 2, is it Worth it?

The Last Of Us was a Playstation 3 swansong, released some six months before the Playstation 4. It garnered rave reviews and was quickly re-released on the newer console. Seven years later and we have a sequel arriving in a similar set of circumstances. Worth the wait? TLOU2 picks up four years after the original,…

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Review

The yearly cadence of Call of Duty releases continues with a brave reboot to the game that put the series on the map. It’s also a game close to my heart so I’m both excited and apprehensive to dive in but dive in I shall. Twelve years minus eleven days after the original released, I’m…

Borderlands 3, More of the Same, And That’s just fine

After seven years of waiting, fans of memes, cartoony graphics, looting and shooting can indulge themselves once more. Borderlands 3 is here and  – spoiler alert – it’s worth the wait. Unfortunately I never had the chance to play The Pre-Sequel and, since it’s not a Gearbox entry into the series, I won’t include it…

JBL Live 650BT Headphone Review

In my JBL Live 400BT review, I said that while the headphones themselves were fantastic,  those with larger craniums might want to look at something like JBLs Live 650BTs. I’ve got exactly that set of cans wrapped around my fat head right now, so let’s get into it. The 650BTs are larger, over-ear, wireless headphones…

JBL Live 400BT Review

I haven’t reviewed headphones for quite a while so it was nice to reach out to JBL and snag a pair of its new Live 400BT cans. They’re pretty stocked with features for a mid-range set of ‘phones, so let’s dive in. The 400BTs use 40mm drivers to deliver audio, which work very well. I…

Anthem Full Review

After a rocky VIP weekend and following open beta, Anthem is out in full. Here’s the quick and dirty of it all. When the betas finished, I reached out to EA to see what state the game was in when we got our shot at it. I read somewhere a while back that one beta…

Marvel’s Spider-Man Review

I’ll kick this review off by admitting I am a massive Spiderman fan. Like so many before me, I was suckered in by Peter Parker’s relatability, his clear flaws but his constant desire to do good. A drive to change the world for the better and how persistently he is challenged in his quest, how…

God of War Review, “A Damn Good Game”

Disclaimer: I haven’t finished the game yet. Not for a lack of trying, though. God of War’s 2018 soft reboot is probably one of the longest games I’ve played since The Witcher 3, and, to be honest, that’s super refreshing. GoW has been away since 2013’s ‘Ascension’ title (not including remasters and bundles), which has…
