When someone says the word "Zenith", I think of a series of TVs that I don't believe are being made anymore. Zenith is a terrific game that is part science fiction and fantasy, but all RPG. The issue with Zenith is that the description on Steam doesn't really fit the game that I actually played. It says that "you won't need to piece the story together by yourself as if … [Read more...] about Our Game Review of Zenith

KINTA Clear iPhone 6/6S Cases
Some of you might be wondering why I am reviewing a case made for the iPhone 6/6S when there is the iPhone 7 out there. Well, this particular company of Kinta hasn't made a case for the iPhone 7 yet. I might as well get this out of the way and say that the Kinta case for the iPhone 7 is available on Kickstarter, but I had the chance to try out the one for the iPhone 6/6S. … [Read more...] about KINTA Clear iPhone 6/6S Cases
HookUpz 2.0 from Carson (IS-200)
So, I'll be reviewing a lot of iPhone 7 accessories and pretty much everything else for the holiday season, and this particular product is from Carson (or Carson Optical, in case the company has re-branded or something). This is the HookUpz 2.0, which is clearly a sequel, and I tried to use the best picture that I could to show you what it could do. Simply put, it connects … [Read more...] about HookUpz 2.0 from Carson (IS-200)
Toast Wood Cover for the iPhone 7
I have written about Toast products before, as they have products from Portland and they love to put birds on them. Of course, there is a great products for the iPhone 7. Unlike other cases, that are usually a huge plastic chunk that you shove your iPhone in, this is a cover that you can stick on. It comes with some interesting adhesive that requires some extra if you … [Read more...] about Toast Wood Cover for the iPhone 7
Our Review of the MyCharge Razor Platinum, Portable Charger for MacBook
Oh yes, I have reviewed many MyCharge products in my time, and the last one was the All-Terrain 3000mAh rechargeable portable charger. This time, it isn't just your average mobile battery, but this one is capable of charging a laptop. I am told that this is the first portable charger that can do a laptop, which is 8 times as powerful as a battery. The USB-C port delivers … [Read more...] about Our Review of the MyCharge Razor Platinum, Portable Charger for MacBook
Speculative Fiction Saturday: Kung Fu Panda 3
I have to admit the Kung Fu Panda took me be surprise when I first saw it. It was a typical story of a complete underdog who must overcome obstacles, kind of like Rocky and The Karate Kid. The only difference is that it is done with a computer-generated panda in an interesting and fantastical anthropomorphic world. The issue with the first film is that it was self-aware. … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Kung Fu Panda 3
Pelican Protector Case for the iPhone 7
Well, we had a chance to review yet another Pelican product, which is in addition to the Voyager case that we reviewed the other day. I've already talked about how Pelican makes some very interesting products that are very durable, and trusted since 1976. So, it has all the drop resistance, shock protection, as well as the non-slip grip. What is interesting is how this … [Read more...] about Pelican Protector Case for the iPhone 7
Pelican Voyager Cell Phone Case for the iPhone 7
Considering that it is essentially iPhone 7 season, that means that I am going to be reviewing a lot of the accessories associated with it. There is one company that I am familiar with when it comes to hard cases, and that is Pelican, and here is the last product that I reviewed for the iPhone 6. To say that Pelican cases are a bit of a hard case is underselling it, as it … [Read more...] about Pelican Voyager Cell Phone Case for the iPhone 7
Speculative Fiction Saturday: Mockingjay, Part 2
I probably should have reviewed this film a while ago, like right after it first came out. Most of you who are familiar with my Speculative Fiction Saturday stories know that I don't often report on films as they come out, but occasionally, I do. I usually feel a need to do some sort of plot synopsis or something, but honestly, just read my reviews of The Hunger Games, … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Mockingjay, Part 2
TiVo Bolt + Has more Tuners and More Memory
Okay, I have had a great time reviewing the TiVo Bolt, and now there is a TiVo Bolt +, or Plus. It has six tuners (the ability to record six shows at once) and three terabytes of recording capacity (up to 450 hours). Now, I don't know about the tuners part in comparison to the old version, but my Bolt only has 1 TB. Just to compare, the TiVo Bolt + has the same … [Read more...] about TiVo Bolt + Has more Tuners and More Memory
Patchworks New Screen Protectors and Cases for iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, and Samsung Galaxy Note 7
Okay, it has been a while since I reviewed a Patchworks product, or any product whatsoever. Patchworks has put out some really great screen protectors, and you can read about them here. Oh, there are also some great cases too that you can read about here. I will start with the screen protectors. I suppose that I don't really have to explain what a screen protector is, … [Read more...] about Patchworks New Screen Protectors and Cases for iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, and Samsung Galaxy Note 7
Speculative Fiction Saturday: Millennium Actress
I would appear that I am celebrating the anime extravaganzas of Satoshi Kon, and this time it is Millennium Actress. I'll go ahead and get this out of the way and say that it is very similar to Perfect Blue, in that I'm not really certain what is reality when I watch this movie. This is kind of why I like watching Kon's films, because they are deliberately disjointed to … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Millennium Actress
No Man’s Sky is an Apparent Disappointment
If you are not familiar with No Man's Sky, it was one of the most anticipated games of the year. It isn't every day where someone comes out with a game where the viewer can explore about 18 qunintillion worlds. Seriously, there is no way that you can do that in your own lifetime. Is it too good to be true? Apparently, it is. As you can see from the Angry Joe review that … [Read more...] about No Man’s Sky is an Apparent Disappointment
Speculative Fiction Saturday: Perfect Blue
Okay, I often don't review anime, and I can't say that Perfect Blue is speculative fiction. However, this is one film that is just so very interesting that I have to write about it. Perfect Blue was directed by Satoshi Kon, who passed away in 2010, and left behind many great animated films. I haven't seen them all, but I remember seeing Paprika many years ago and still … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Perfect Blue
Stephen King’s ‘It’ and ‘The Dark Tower’ Release Dates and News
It looks like 2017 is going to be the year of Stephen King adaptations. Considering that the horror author has had many done in his name with some good and some bad, it looks like some of his best and well-known works are going to made into films. The first that is coming is The Dark Tower with Idris Elba and Matthew McConaughey, and it is a planned trilogy that will be quite … [Read more...] about Stephen King’s ‘It’ and ‘The Dark Tower’ Release Dates and News
