A few weeks ago, our good friends at Google Canada sent over the Google Pixel 3 for us to review, and we've been doing so over the last number of weeks. The biggest changes to the device come within the camera options, which we dive into deeper here. Ultimately, we found the Google Pixel 3 XL to be a brilliant phone with a few potentially problematic issues, so let's dive in and see if this phone will be right ...
Released earlier this week, Megaquarium is the latest game to come from Twice Circled, the one-man developer responsible for the construction-puzzler indie hit Big Pharma.

However, there are some major differences as well, and fans of a more traditional tycoon experience may be in ...

I've been using the BlackBerry motion for a good 2-3 weeks now, and I'm thoroughly impressed with the product in my hands. BlackBerry gets a lot of flack and hate, some deserved and some not, but with their latest two cell phones - the BlackBerry KEYone and the BlackBerry Motion - they are letting the cellphone marketplace know they are still alive and well, and ready for business. Whether a classy businessman, ...
For the majority of people, a television set is, well, a televisions set, and while you might notice the weight difference between an LCD and an LED, or perhaps the brightness differences between a plasma and a non-plasma TV, the reality is the majority of people will not know whether they are watching on a great TV versus a phenomenal TV. Prior to receiving the Samsung Series 7 55inch Q7 UHD QLED TV from ...
There are often serious debates about the necessity of a headphone set for your Xbox One or PS4, and when people decide it is important - paramount, in my opinion if you wish to game online with friends - the discussion over what needs to be included, and what price you should pay, often leaves consumers going crazy. With so many headsets available on the market, it is sometimes hard to decide which one is best ...
A few months ago, I was pretty sure only one racing chair company existed, but it wasn't long before I realized there are tons of these companies out there, all trying to compete with each other in a very busy and cramped marketplace. While most of these chairs are, on average, around the 400-500$ mark, they are priced out of the range of many people, Ewin Racing has chairs that are competitively priced with ...

Over the past few months, we've reviewed more hardware and peripherals than we can shake a stick at, but from everything we have done - headsets, speakers, entertainment systems, and toys - we've never had the pleasure of looking at one of the more expensive items you can buy for your gaming setup: the elusive gaming chair!
I'm going to be perfectly honest with you: I've never reviewed a wireless router in my whole entire life, but somehow I hope my thoughts will be qualified enough for you to actually consider them! I know how Internet works, and getting the opportunity to try out a new router in a home I just purchased was an outstanding, and eye opening, experience. Today, we will be looking at the AC 1900M Smart Wifi Gigabit ...
We have been playing around with the Creative iRoar Bluetooth Speaker for about a month now, and are thoroughly loving it! Although we have reviewed a number of units in the past - including a few lower level items from Creative - nothing we have used yet compares to the iRoar when it comes to the balance of portability and sound. With only a few issues to talk about, the Creative iRoar is easily recommendable ...
Steel Series is a leading innovator in the pc and console hardware marketplace, and the quality of their products has always been top notch. We have looked at a ton of Steel Series products over the last year, and almost always have really enjoyed using them. A few months ago we reviewed the Apex 800 keyboard from Steel Series, and really loved it. Not everyone has the funds to purchase that model, however, so ...
The marketplace for portable Bluetooth speakers in incredibly crowded; the quality across all the brands is usually sub-par, with each company working towards having the cheapest item on the market.
It's been an audiotastic type of summer in the Roffel household this summer. The only thing better than lounging around my pool is doing so with some great music flowing through my back door and windows out to my pool. Until recently, that sound was coming out of a variety of cheap computer speakers, but this month that all changed when I received the Creative Sound Blaster X7 with book shelf speakers.
The Rival series of mice have evolved over time, from the basic capabilities of the Rival 100, through the upgrades in the 300, to the most advanced options available in the 700.
A few weeks back, we reviewed the wonderful Creative T4 2.1 Wireless speaker set. We highly recommended these for a smaller living room or gaming room, but said they might be a bit large for an average sized computer room. Don’t fret however, because Creative has thought of those people as well. Enter the Creative T50 Wireless speaker set.
Creative has made some impressive products over the years, and we have just begun reviewing a ton of them on GamesReviews.com. Video game audio continues to improve, and as gamers become more competitive - and in certain situations, go professional - having top grade audio is equally as important as high definition video. Creative has an extraordinary lineup of speakers available to satisfy varying levels of ...

The name is immediately followed by the claim of “World's fastest mechanical gaming keyboard” which after gaming on it playing Far Cry 4, Minecraft and Team Fortress 2 for about 30 hours I can completely agree on. This keyboard is engineered for speed, and fulfilled that claim within the first few minutes using it.

This is the mindset we enter controlling the silent protagonist of Phosphor Games’ new title, Corpse of Discovery. Released in late August of this year, this indie exploration game reaches into the stars to present a sentimental story about fear, loneliness, and death. Not the first (or the last) alone-in-space game to reach ...
Occasionally games will take a break from the typical structures of crafting, battling, and leveling, games to present a softer, more idealistic approach to gameplay.
