It’s that time of year again, where consumers brace themselves for a torrent of deals both online and on the high street. I am of course talking about Black Friday, and so I’ve brought back my helpful buying guide to this year’s retail event, as navigating all the flash deals and (hopefully) ridiculous bargains can […]
It all happened so fast, or at least my racing heart made it feel like it. The safe area had just shrunk down to cover a small hill I was standing upon, with a small ridge below where the last remaining opponent was hiding behind a tree. Low on ammo and knowing the safe area […]
In an effort to expand his fledgeling business empire, entrepreneur Galen Holst had organised a journey across the land to the Grand City of Reach.

It shouldn’t be too surprising that Andromeda was already one of my most anticipated game of next year. After all, I’ve made no secret of how much I enjoyed the Mass Effect trilogy. Its universe, filled with interesting characters and a rich history, has given us some of the most memorable sequences the medium has […]

Online games (or multiplayer modes in AAA games) have been doing them for years, especially in the MMORPG scene, but last weekend EA took the approach one step further. They opened up most of FIFA 17, their current EA Sports flagship game, to PS4 and Xbox One owners. With […]
My Dealspwn days may be long behind me, but somebody needs to look out for you all during this year’s craziest retail day – Black Friday.
