Razer made the 120hz gaming phone a reality with their previous outing, with the only real hole in its game being a somewhat weak camera.  They listened to their customers, however, and now they’ve announced a fresh take on their flagship mobile gaming phone — behold the Razer Phone 2.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider at 4K on PC – a technical cross section

The team at Crystal Dynamics and Nixxes created something pretty special with Rise of the Tomb Raider. The game looked gorgeous, utilized a ton of amazing technology (Hardware tessellation, HBAO+, etc. — you can read my writeup on Rise here) to bring it to life, and was generally my go-to game

“The blade itself incites to deeds of violence” — Assassin’s Creed Odyssey review

Clad in hammered bronze armor and braced for the incoming attack, I waited until the last moment — I’d have just one chance. As the strike descended, I crossed my spear and khopesh sword, rebuffing the attack in an explosive whirlwind of sudden motion. Pressing my foe backwards to the

I’ve tackled the issue of storage space on the Xbox One a few times, and during that time I’ve seen more than one approach to solving it, as from external plug-in drives, to more form-fitting systems like the Fantom sidecar I reviewed earlier this year. If there’s

Virtual counterterrorism – Firewall Zero Hour PSVR review

Firewall Zero Hour came as a surprise at E3. Kay and I knew we wanted to check out the upcoming PSVR slate of titles, but we went into the game blind. We came away not only impressed, but so much so that it won a nomination for Best of E3

Hands-on with Wasteland 2: Director’s Cut on Switch

I took a look at Wasteland 2: Director’s Cut on Xbox One back in October of 2015 and found it to be a very solid port from PC to console, as you can see in my review. Nintendo’s portable console has become an excellent platform for ports, but

Virtual tower terror – The Last Day Defense VR preview

I’ve gotta be honest…I’m not really into tower defense games. It seems like there’s a glut of them on every portable device, including the Nintendo Switch, so it’s not a huge surprise that the genre has made its way to virtual reality. After having two
