Recently, eSports has become one of the biggest revolutions in the gaming industry. Competitive play has long been a trope of gaming. Competing with friends dates back to the arcade era. While skill plays a major factor in player performance, so does the controller being used. Wear and tear or an aftermarket controller may be contributing factors to poor performance. Those looking to take a more s...[Read More]
I am always on the search for better solutions to my production setup. I never quite have the best but I always have a broad equipment spread so that I can create what I am into at the time. I produce written content, audio, video, and live streams and I’ve been doing so semi-professionally for many years now. Packages like the AVerMedia Live Streamer Duo, a combo pack that puts together the Live ...[Read More]
For quite some time I was mainly a single screen owner when it came to desktop computers. I owned a 23″ Asus monitor and that was about it. I had to mix in gaming and every day work and running Marooners’ Rock on a normal basis. I normally had my desk cluttered with random games, plushies, business cards, and streaming hardware—even to the point where I had to use my phone to see chat ...[Read More]
I game and travel—A LOT. I also stream, host events, and (if I can’t sleep) game in bed. So, it’s important to me have a headset that is comfortable, reliable, and produces high quality sound so I can hear everything going on in my games. The HyperX Cloud Alpha Pro Gaming Headset was released at the end of September, but before it was, I got a hands-on—or rather, head-on—preview of it. I can tell ...[Read More]
This is where I want to see the Switch thrive. Sure, having awesome games is a must and we still really need that Virtual Console, but there are few things more awesome than the accessory possibilities for the system. Yesojo, a Chinese company based out of Shenzhen, is working on what’s called the Ojo Projector. This magical dock will allow Switch players to project their gameplay to just ab...[Read More]
I’ll be honest – DXRacer has the gaming chair market knocked. It knows how to make a versatile, comfortable product, and has various models available for YouTube and other streaming stars to take advantage of. (It’s ideal for regular gamers as well, especially those looking for something convenient for the long-term.)
When it came out in 2012, Logitech’s C920 webcam worked its magic on the market, gathering a number of fans that were looking to simplify their streaming game – even those that already had built-in webcams in their computer (like yours truly). But, of course, as time inevitably shows, there’s always room for a new model, and that’s where the newly released C922 comes into play.
Connect with superior clarity every time you go live on channels like Twitch and YouTube. Stream anything you want in your choice of 1080p or fluid HD 720p at 60fps.

When I was given the opportunity to review Mimico’s Powerbot charger at PAX East 2016, I jumped at the chance. Who can’t use another portable charger these days? With PAX East killing batteries quickly and everyday life draining power it’s something worth checking out. Not to mention one that boasts 3 full phone charges of power that comes in cute animal shapes. I was sold, and picked the pa...[Read More]
When it comes to gaming on the go, most people turn to GAEMS’ line of monitors, either with the big, bulky Vanguard cases or the M240, both of which deliver fine performance when it comes to capturing that same experience (but without the couch, obviously). However, for those on a meager budget, there’s also the M155 Scout, which goes for $169. It has its fair share of limitations, lik...[Read More]
A few years ago, Logitech made quite a name for itself by producing Gran Turismo-branded steering wheels for PlayStation consoles, creating an unmatched driving experience with ideal force feedback and the kind of “real” feeling that’s usually limited to deluxe arcade racing cabinets. Sure, it was expensive as heck, but the feeling you got from this wheel – with the right driving...[Read More]
For some time now I’ve been using AVerMedia’s latest product: Game Capture HD II, which adds a lot of cool features. Since this is the second in the series, I was excited to see what has changed since the first unit. The Game Capture HD had a lot of cool ideas and provided an interesting way to capture footage via component cables. To see one of my videos uploaded for the first unit you can click ...[Read More]
