The thought of Nintendo handing over it's properties to another company seemed pretty unlikely to ever happen, and fans of the company have often been divided on whether or not Nintendo should lax their stringent rules on the use of their characters and licence them out.

As the market continues to get saturated with different types and brands of headsets, companies are looking to slash costs as much as humanly possible. I remember during the hey-days of the PS3 and Xbox 360, where a good gaming headset would easily set a gamer back at least $200! Today, that isn't the case, as more and more companies are opting for sub $100 units. Enter Turtle Beach (again) who have launched the Stealth 600 headset in limited quantities today for the low price of $99.99. What sets this set apart from others you might as?

I’m about to carbon date myself a little. I remember when the X-Files originally started in the 90s. I was just a kid. I had never seen a show like the X-Files before. Two FBI agents, Mulder and Scully, investigated aliens, monsters, and other stuff every week. And when I got a chance to play an X-Files PC game, I jumped at it. I’m not a PC gamer, but I do love point & click games. While I don’t remember…
