Age of Empires 2 Definitive Edition Review

Age of Empires 2 is a game that seems to never die. I remember playing the original game back in the early 2000’s when I was studying network engineering with one of my lecturers. We called it “network testing” so we could pretend it was a constructive usage of our time between classes. Fast forward…

Clones Review

I start this review knowing full well that I might be flogging a dead horse well past the point that I should. Not only have I reviewed a mobile version of Lemmings for Android, I am now reviewing another PC-based Lemmings lookalike from 2011 that’s been sitting in my Steam library for about as long…

Rocka Feller Review

I’ve mentioned elsewhere, for instance in my Lemmings review, that I have fond memories of my first IBM PC Compatible at home in 1992.  This is by far not the first computer I ever used.  That machine would be the BBC Micro Model B, which was a very common machine in schools if you grew…

T7Droid Screen Recorder Review

Some people may have a bit of confusion as to why a site intended for casual gaming might choose to review something that isn’t, strictly speaking, a game. I promise you there is a justification for it. Given I am planning to do some Android game reviews, I figured that it would be worth investigating…

Fruit Ninja 2 Review

The original Fruit Ninja game has always been a favourite of mine. Once I discovered the game, it has been installed on every smartphone I’ve owned. Turning perfectly usable fruit into a slushy paste has always been a great way to spend a few minutes when you’ve got nothing else to do. It was a…

Lemmings Review

I often feel very nostalgic of my experiences with computers in the 80’s and early 90’s. I still remember the specs of the first IBM PC compatible our family had at home in 1992 – a 386SX/16, with a whopping 4 megabytes of RAM, and an absolutely whopping 60 megabytes of hard drive space. It…

Do I Need A VPN?

The term VPN, or Virtual Private Network, has been getting thrown around fairly heavily over the last few years. They’ve been advertised frequently through various media outlets, including as part of paid sponsorships for various YouTube channels. Some of you may be wondering what the point of a VPN actually is and whether they should…

How Much RAM Do I Need In 2021?

There’s an old saying that opinions are like arseholes. Everyone has one and they all stink. We’re definitely wading into that territory here. Everyone has an opinion on how much RAM you need in your computer. Some opinions are more informed than others. Some old wisdom is that more RAM is better. This is generally…

What Storage Should I Get In 2021?

Once upon a time, computer storage was a relatively straight-forward affair. Everything your computer ever needed was stored on an internal hard drive, and you used floppy disks (you know – those things that look kinda like the Save icon) to move data between machines. Things are still relatively straight-forward today, except floppy disks have…
