Creative SoundblasterX H5 Review
The Creative SoundblasterX H5 may sound like it was named by a committee of twelve year olds trying to come up with a name after their previous suggestion of Headsetty McHeadset was rejected, but at its heart the Soundblaster is a relatively low key, function over form headset. The Soundblaster…

Quantum Break Review
Quantum Break is somewhat of a remnant of the original vision for the Xbox One, the all-in-one entertainment system from Microsoft. A fusion of video gaming and live-action TV, Quantum Break is an ambitious project and whilst it’s not without its flaws, the concept works much better than it has…
Steelseries Siberia 200 Review
The Siberia 200 is SteelSeries’s spiritual successor to the Siberia V2, aiming to bring the ageing headset into the modern age with a goal of ‘reclaiming its title as the best gaming headset in eSports and PC gaming’. At £60 it’s not going to be the best and SteelSeries damn…
