Some of the best video games are the simplest. This Grapple, a Puzzle Platformer developed by Tuesday Society and published by Midnight City, has no complex backstory, no big end-goal, just jumping from platform to platform. The player of Grapple is this small ball of black goo. Yeah, I don't know how to describe it any other way. Actually, I can. Take a piece of … [Read more...] about Our Review of Grapple, a Puzzle Platformer Game

The NomadKey, NomadClip, and NomadPlus from…Nomad!
I had a chance to try out three Nomad products from Nomad which includes the NomadKey, NomadClip, and the NomadPlus. I'll go ahead and start with the NomadKey, even though I have done it before with the Nomad ChargeKey. The ChargeKey is essentially a charging cord, but very, very short. It is made of "high-grade polycarbonate from Bayer and a stellar rubber elastomer … [Read more...] about The NomadKey, NomadClip, and NomadPlus from…Nomad!
Speculative Fiction Saturday: Psycho-Pass
Since I have been writing about television shows this past month, I thought I would continue to watch them and write about them for the rest of the month. Fortunately, a Netflix subscription gives you access to shows that I never heard of, so it behooves me to watch them. I could a chance on Psycho-Pass, and I am glad that I did. I am not a big fan of anime series, even … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Psycho-Pass

Magic Leap could be real, and it is real awesome!
I have seen a lot of interesting interactive scenarios that allow video games to be played off of the screen. I don't know how else to describe this, but you can see some interesting examples of RoomAlive and IllumiRoom. This time, I want to talk about the Magic Leap. My Source reveals that they are not certain whether or not this is true. I have to admit that I doubt … [Read more...] about Magic Leap could be real, and it is real awesome!

First, it can double your battery life, and the best part is the built-in … [Read more...] about The Otterbox Resurgence Power Case for the iPhone 6
Our Review of The Supreme League of Patriots
I have reviewed some good games from Phoenix Online Publishing, such as Morningstar: Descent to Deadrock and Gabriel Knight. I will have to say that this will be a negative review for Supreme League of Patriots. With a name like that, you would think that it would be a very action oriented game with a lot of metahuman fighting. From what I have played, I found it to be … [Read more...] about Our Review of The Supreme League of Patriots
Post Modern Skateboard is a new way to thrash
I remember a friend of mine told me that the term "Post Modern" doesn't really make sense. In fact, to apply the term "modernism" implies that this is the last art movement period, or it is going to look pretty stupid that we called it that in the future. Yet by saying "Post Modern" implies that we are now living in the future, or something. Still, this doesn't mean that … [Read more...] about Post Modern Skateboard is a new way to thrash
Speculative Fiction Saturday: Black Mirror
Okay, I'm going to continue with this month's theme of "Speculative Fiction things that I just happen to be watching". And let me start out by saying this: if you have Netflix, use it. Watch things that you might not have watched. You will never know when you might discover something that is a true gem. In the case of Black Mirror, this one is really good. At least the … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Black Mirror

How Minecraft will affect the next generation
I have been meaning to write about Minecraft for a long time, because my kids love it so much. My children are of varying ages from 7-12, and they all play Minecraft on the PS4 and on mobile devices. My daughter has said that Minecraft is "her favorite thing in the whole world", and this is a world full of puppies and My Little Pony. If you are not familiar with … [Read more...] about How Minecraft will affect the next generation
Our Review of the QODE Ultimate Pro Keyboard Case for the iPad Air 2
I was pleased to review the QODE from Belkin, and it lives up to its name of the Ultimate Pro Keyboard Case for the iPad Air. Okay, I had a chance to try it out, and I compared it to the description on the official product site, and it says that I should be able to detach the case with the iPad Air in it easily. The issue is that I could not get that to work. If it is … [Read more...] about Our Review of the QODE Ultimate Pro Keyboard Case for the iPad Air 2
Review of the Audio-Technica ATH-SPORT2 earbuds
