Blisteringly fast and big — Seagate BarraCuda Pro 12TB HDD review

Who in the world needs 12TB of storage space?! Gamers, that’s who. Watch Dogs 2 is over 100GB with the high resolution textures, Final Fantasy 15 is 148GB, Middle-earth: Shadow of War tips the scales at 151GB with its most recent patch. Start throwing in “4K” patches for games

Ports and storage for the masses — Fantom Drives Xbox One Storage Hub review

A lot of research and development went into creating the Xbox One and Xbox One X, but despite two bites at the apple, Microsoft dropped the ball in two areas both times. For anyone who owns one, you immediately know which two pain points I’m talking about — storage space

Portable 4K capture — AVerMedia Live Gamer Ultra review

Less than six hours before I left for E3, I received my AVerMedia Live Gamer Ultra — AVerMedia’s new portable 4K capture rig. Did I take the risk on a system that wasn’t even listed on the company website yet? Did I run the chance that the whole thing

4K60/HDR at last! — AVerMedia Live Gamer 4K Capture Card review

There has been a barrier since the launch of this current generation of game consoles in November of 2013. Other than the highest end commercial units on the market, there were no game capture systems available capable of capturing game output at 3,840 x 2,160 resolution (aka UHD,

We’re taking the hobbits to Isengard — My return to Middle-Earth: Shadow of War

I absolutely loved Shadow of War, at least until I hit the microtransaction-laden Act 4 slog to try to eke out the “true ending”. In my review I suggested people simply hit YouTube to watch the video of that ending, sparing themselves the aggravation. Fast forward from October 2017 to

Hurkamania runs wild — Far Cry 5: Lost on Mars DLC review

I really enjoyed Far Cry 5, and said as much in my review. One of the best parts of the game was the crazy cast of characters, with two ready standouts — “Dangerously Stupid” Hurk Drubman Jr. and crazy crop duster Nick Rye. Well, through reasons best revealed through the expertly
