Video Game Review: Game of Thrones, Episode 4

/ Video Game Reviews

Probably the most significant advancements come from Ironrath where, after three episodes of taking it on the chin from the Whitehills, Rodrik finally gets to start fighting back. Backed by members of House Glenmore, Rodrik is able to extricate Gryff from power — how much or little force you use to accomplish that is up to you (we opted for maximum bloodshed) — and in the process gets himself some leverage with the Whitehills, who still hold his little brother, Ryon.

Video Game Review: Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster (PS4)

/ Video Game Reviews

As you’d suspect with the additional time and jump to the PS4, the game’s presentation has been noticeably improved — that’s not to be confused with “dramatically improved,” however, as there is very little (if any) difference in the way the main characters look. Of course, they’re the ones that got all the attention in the first place, so it’s not really all that surprising.

Product Review: Skullcandy SLYR for Xbox One

/ Product reviews

The SLYR for Xbox One actually more closely follows the colour scheme of the original Xbox, featuring the bright green on both the ear cups and deployable microphone (it tucks nearly out of sight when not in use). It’s not our favourite colour, and we would’ve preferred the same black on the outside throughout the design, but it’s not worth getting hung up on, either. Also, the headset, while plastic, still feels durable and doesn’t exude a cheap vibe.

Video Game Review: Super Mega Baseball

/ Baseball, Video Game Reviews

Do you remember when baseball games were fun? Back before it was all about picturesque recreations of stadiums, lifelike players and tons of statistical minutia. We’re talking the days of Baseball Simulator 1000 and Baseball Stars, when sitting down and basking in the gameplay trumped everything else. Well, if you do, Metalhead Software’s Super Mega Baseball hopes to recreate that fun. And if you don’t, it intends to introduce you to it.

Video Game Review: Bastion (PS4)

/ Video Game Reviews

Awakening to a world that has been effectively destroyed by an event known as “the Calamity,” you make your way to your people’s safe haven (”the Bastion”) to find that you’re the only person to reach the sanctuary. That means it’s up to you to save the world… at least what’s left of it. To do so you’ll need to venture into the remnants to find crystal shards to build up the Bastion, which operates as a central hub for all your adventuring.

2015 RotoRob MLB Draft Kit: Top 10 Rookies

/ 2015 RotoRob MLB Draft Kit, Baseball, Rookies, Top 10 lists

Considered by most publications to be one of the top handful of prospects, if the not the best of the bunch, Buxton will nonetheless open the 2015 season in the minors for some seasoning (and to prevent his service-time clock from starting). He is long on talent — excellent speed, developing power, ferocious bat speed, etc. — but short on experience with just three at-bats above High-A. It’s possible the Twins could hold Buxton back until 2016, but a more likely scenario is a late-June promotion. If that happens, pounce.
