If you’re a serious gamer or have ever watched one in action, you know that the right microphone and headphones make a huge difference. The new Shure MV6 USB Gaming Microphone is an affordable way to immerse yourself in your gaming experience.
The Legion Go is an amazing and powerful gaming device; we’ve loved testing it at Gear Diary, and anyone else who has had the chance to play with it has been equally impressed. Lenovo knows the Legion Go is something special, so they’re expanding the Legion Go accessory ecosystem in a big way!
I was very excited at the mere WHIFF that Ghost of Tsushima would be coming out on PC after an initial console-only release. Many consider this game a resounding masterpiece that sets the standard for any open-world sandbox games that come after. It’s admittedly quite good, actually great in some ways. But in my opinion, it is nowhere near perfect, and I’ll try to explain why while hiding from the lynch mob under my bed. Don’t tell them I’m there.
Horizon: Zero Dawn was my first review on this site, so before we get into the meat of the sequel, this is a message to anyone who reads my stuff: Thank you for being here as we cover the game’s successor. Anyway, now we have Horizon: Forbidden West—momentous occasion, sparkling wine for everyone, or in my case, hobo gin.
Pimax, a high-end VR gaming gear manufacturer, announced two new models of its Crystal line of VR headsets at its 2024 Frontier event on YouTube. The Pimax Crystal Super sets a new high bar for the industry with 29.5 million pixels and the world’s first swappable optical engine, allowing users to select between QLED and micro-OLED panels. The new Pimax Crystal Light offers the same 16.6 million pixels as the existing Pimax Crystal but at a much lower cost, starting at $699.
I’m not a hardcore gamer, but I do enjoy playing video games. Unfortunately, I spent most of my formative years playing Nintendo and Sega games, and anything more complicated has always spooked me. It’s never too late to face your fear of video games that are more complicated than the original Mario, and I am proud to say I’ve mastered far more complex games, thanks to my use of the Lenovo Legion Go!
I beg you. Do not pre-order Star Wars Outlaws. That’s it, article over. Jokes aside, I can guess that some of you may have seen that a Star Wars action-adventure game was set to be released, and the ol’ nostalgia brain chemicals may have fired immediately. Not to be a wet and crusty towel on your potential hope and excitement, but this news scared me for a few reasons.
SteelSeries has earned a reputation for its high-quality gaming headsets and has now entered the gaming microphone market with two versions of its new Alias microphone. I am testing the SteelSeries Alias Pro, an XLR microphone, and the Stream Mixer interface in this review. A sister product, the SteelSeries Alias, is a USB microphone with an integrated interface.
We’re back, and we’re cracked; let’s get to it. My inbox is flooded with press releases, so why don’t we pick a few and go over the updates? Here is last month’s edition of New Game Monday; if you haven’t had a chance to read it, we will be following a similar style. These are a few of the games that are coming up and are actively being hyped to me.
Hello, Readers! It’s the year of our Lord 2024, and I’ve cranked out quite a few reviews, each seemingly longer than the last. I enjoy writing, but I’m currently in a bit of a pickle as to what to put my grubby meathooks on next. A lot of stuff has been launched recently by the usual murderer’s row of development teams, but to be honest, none of it really interests me. So, I’m going to start a series called New Game Monday that I may or may not update monthly; it just depends on what’s new and interesting.
Dear Readers, we may have found the 2023 Game of the Year in Lies of P. I’ll admit, when I first saw the game pop up on Steam, my first reaction was, “What a fricking stupid name.” Once I got over my initial revulsion (and admittedly waited for it to go on a small sale), I dove into the discourse surrounding this game to see if it was something truly worth playing. As far as I knew, it had a gameplay loop reminiscent of the much-accredited Dark Souls franchise, where punishment is your only friend as its core alluring trait.
Whether you’re a gamer, a student, or just an all-around little bit of everything laptop user, ASUS‘s refreshed lineup for 2024 has something for you! You can become more productive with the ASUS Zenbook Duo or immerse yourself in the new TUF gaming laptop.
When you think PC gaming, you think Lenovo Legion. Their laptops run the gamut from budget to high-end, so they have gamers of all experiences covered. The newly refreshed line of Legion laptops, towers, and LOQ budget line will have you covered for work, play, and more play!
Gaming enthusiasts, here’s some exciting news from GravaStar! The innovative brand has just introduced its latest offerings – the Mercury M1 Pro and Mercury M2 Gaming Mice, set to provide the perfect blend of cutting-edge design and top-notch performance.
Holy sh*t, people, do I have some filth to say about this game! Shadow of the Tomb Raider is right in the sweet spot of games for me not only to play but to review because while I did end up enjoying the experience overall due to my rolodex of neurological quirks, it had so many problems that I can relentlessly dunk on it with abject glee. It’s essentially the baby bear’s bed Goldilocks trespassed into, so forgive my exuberance and elation; it’s been a long month.
It’s funny that people are referring to Cassette Beasts as “not Pokemon.” While that’s technically true, there are a lot of similarities that make such a strong opposition to the comparison laughable, in my opinion. That being said, this is not just a reskin, as Cassette Beasts incorporates a charming and interesting twist on a format that has grown a little stale due to Nintendo and Gamefreak’s apparent disregard for their fanbase. If you saw it on the Steam Page and thought, “Do I really need this in my life?” Well, I’m here to tell you that you just might.
Hold onto your toilet seats, ladies, germs, and nonbinary friends; we’ve got a card battler coming your way! But is that really all it is? More than just a card game, Inscryption is divided into three distinct acts that will leave you wondering what on earth is happening. It’s an ambitious undertaking, but you, the reader, must be careful before proceeding through this article because there will undoubtedly be things that you may wish to experience for yourself rather than read about. I’ll give you fair warning now and before each section so you can skip ahead if you’d prefer.
We’re back with another Marvel game, howdy, howdy, howdy. Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales was on sale recently, and I enjoyed the original immensely, so I felt it would be good to give this game a whirl. Instead of playing as Peter Parker, however, you are playing as the newcomer Miles Morales, the hero of Harlem. While the game borrows a fair amount from the previous Spider-Man game, it does bring enough new to make the experience interesting. I beat the main story in about 8 hours; here are my thoughts.
PC gaming isn’t confined to just desktops anymore. Laptops are becoming increasingly powerful and capable of handling AAA games, video editing, and any other heavy lifts you need. Most importantly, with the new Lenovo Legion Slim 5, you don’t need to lift heavy to enjoy a portable gaming rig!
Well, everyone, we’ve made it. Here we have the final step in the Metro trilogy that, presumedly, you have been waiting for. Following the events of Metro 2033: Last Light, we rejoin our silent friend Artyom as he ventures out from the musky subway tunnels of post-apocalyptic Moscow. It’s certainly an ambitious switch-up of the format that was very linear in the last two games in this series, and they have learned from what worked well in the past. That being said, they didn’t get the balance quite right, and that puts it a tier below Metro: Last Light.
Well, well, well. After all these years, RuneScape is still kicking. I remember thinking that this was the coolest game way back when it was browser-based; since then, the RPG has done some growing. We’ve got the info regarding their next content update, Necromancy, scheduled to go live on August 7th, 2023. Here’s a full trailer for it.
