As Dusk Falls really wants to be your next Netflix binge. Never mind that it’s technically a video game – a six-episode miniseries about a small-time heist gone bad, and the intertwining trauma of two families caught in the aftermath. It rides a fine line between game and television, but …
Read More »Rode RodeCaster Pro II review: “An encompassing solution for all creators”
Rode’s RodeCaster Pro II is the second all-in-one audio workstation by the Australian audio brand, and in my opinion, an absolutely essential addition to any high-end streaming setup, too. Priced at $699 / £629, the company, perhaps best known for making some of the best microphones on the market, has …
Read More »Resident Evil Netflix series review: “Does little to rise above what’s come before”
Adaptations of Resident Evil have a shaky history. Where Paul W.S. Anderson’s movie series fizzled out and last year’s big-screen reboot received a tepid response, a collection of CGI films – including a Netflix series – were handled better. Unfortunately, the streamer’s new live-action Resident Evil series does little to …

The Rode NTH-100 is the Australian brand’s first attempt at professional-grade monitoring headphones, with this model excelling straight out of the gate for any streaming setup.

Read More »Wonderlands War review
On paper, Wonderland’s War shouldn’t work. Mixing wargames with Alice in Wonderland? It doesn’t make sense. Equally vexing is the fact that board games based on these stories aren’t all that common. Lewis Carroll’s Wonderland books are mainstays of fantasy, but they are strangely absent from the gaming canon. It …
Read More »Razer Kaira for PlayStation review: a solid set of cups with some sacrifices
The Razer Kaira sits squarely in the middle of the brand’s current PS5 lineup. Sandwhiched between the budget $59.99 / £59.99 Kaira X and the $199.99 / £199.99 Kaira Pro. At $99.99 / £99.99, though, what are you achieving by scaling up from the cheaper model, and is it worth …
