Future Reviews: Razer Viper Mini

by

There are a lot of different options these days when it comes to selecting a mouse. For some people, it doesn’t really matter. They might buy a cool novelty mouse, like a friend of mine has one shaped like a VW Beetle. He uses it at his workshop, so it suits him. Someone who plays … Read more

NES Memories: Ice Climber

by

I spoke about Battle City before, one of the few games of the time that could be played co-operatively on the NES. Nintendo’s own Ice Climber was one of the others that you could enjoy, but wasn’t always sunshine and roses. I find the difficulty spike to be a little steep after the first few levels, going from really … Read more

There are a lot of great dads out there in the world of anime, and there are some that are, in one way or another, scumbags who either cant even look after themselves or are too self-absorbed to care about anyone but themselves.

Guide – Custom Controller configuration on PS4 (including gyro aiming!)

by

I only recently got a PS4, after having gotten very used to using gyroscopic aiming on my PC for games like Tomb Raider (2013). I was completely unable to play Horizon Zero Dawn using only the sticks, so after much searching of Reddit and YouTube (and a fair bit of experimentation) I have figured out how to use it on my PS4 as well, with the help of my PC running steam and other software.

This guide will show you what I do to get it to work. In the process, you will also see how this process can be tweaked to unlock many options for PS4 control, including using the Xbox Elite controller, Nintendo Switch Pro controller, or Steam controller with your ps4.

Note: This technique is not free – it will cost you a minimum of 12 British Pounds (about $14 right now) for the software.

Forget Darwin’s Game . Mirai Nikki: The Future Diary is the unhinged death-game escapism you need right now.

by

What better way to occupy oneself during the increasingly bleak pandemic apocalypse than with a show that proudly bears the DVD cover tagline #You’re all gonna die? As a medic, I have become increasingly frazzled by the growing horror that has erupted not just in my country, but all over the globe. There’s a sense … Read more

I Take Back What I Said About NES Online

by

I have, in the past, expressed some derisory opinions about Nintendo’s NES Online service. I’m here to eat a slice of humble pie, with a side of my own words. I was of the opinion that NES Online, and SNES Online, weren’t getting the attention they deserved from Nintendo. My main complaint was the dearth … Read more
