Post Launch Plans for Assassin’s Creed Odyssey
If you've been following the website for a number of years now, you'll know that I'm a huge Assassin's Creed fan, and have been since the games original release. The last game in the franchise - Assassin's Creed Origins - topped Black Flag as my favourite Assassin's Creed title to date. With Odyssey on the horizon, Black Flag might tumble to #3 on my list!

Dragon Quest 11 – Review Chapter 1 – Beautiful Visuals
Thanks to our good friends at Square Enix, we received a review code for Dragon Quest 11 on the PlayStation 4. According to the PR firm for Square Enix, the adventure should take us roughly 70-100 hours to complete - depending on the side quests we engage in - and as the review window for this game has passed, we are looking to take a different approach to reviewing this title. Every few days for the next week or so, we will look at a different aspect of Dragon Quest 11, whether we think Square Enix did a good job with that particular decision, and overall how we are feeling about the game as we get deeper and deeper in to the experience. Up first: the visuals! How well did the development team do to bring the world of Dragon Quest to life once again? Let's dive in!

Sound BlasterX G6 Onboard Buttons
The great things about the Sound BlasterX G6 from Creative - outside of the amazing plug and play capabilities - is the host of onboard buttons and switches that allows you to quickly alter your sound output with a few quick presses.

The IR Receiver for Logitech Harmony remote controls is a fantastic little product from Performance Design Products that allows your Harmony remote - no matter how cheap or how expensive - to easily interface with your PS4 device.

Portal Knights Villainous Update Lands Around September 6th; Switch Version at a Later Date
The Portal Knights team has been very active on social media ever since the game originally launched, and now that things are up and running on every platform imaginable - Steam, Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android - the team is busy pumping out content updates to support the ever growing fan base. Although these updates are not coming as fast as fans would like - and I'm sure the Portal Knights development team would like to see certification faster as well - when they do launch, it is with much fanfare and anticipation!
