Soundart joins Audioshield and the revered Beat Saber as another music-based VR game-come-dance-fitness title.
The VR equivalent of the Guitar Hero/Rock Band craze of a decade ago, the VR hitting-things-to-music genre shows no signs of abating. And it’s understandable. Continue reading Soundart PC VR review

Soundself promises a psychedelic trace-like experience without ingesting LSD or psilocybin.
Ever since my first dabble with virtual reality, I’ve wondered about its effect on the human brain. These strange realities that we can now experience, as if they are real, conflict with what we know and understand. Is VR capable of reprogramming our minds?

The Isle of Man TT is arguably the world’s most dangerous motorsport event. It’s a 37.5-mile race along public roads around a picturesque island sitting in the Irish Sea. But don’t let the serene countryside backdrop fool you. Since the event’s inception in 1907, the race has claimed nearly 260 competitor’s lives, even more if you include bystanders. Continue reading Isle of Man TT: Ride on the Edge 2 Xbox One review
Doom Eternal is the direct sequel to 2016’s Doom reboot, pitting players against a demonic horde set to a sci-fi backdrop.
Doom has a heritage that goes back all the way to very beginning of the first-person shooter genre. In 2016 id software took it on themselves to reboot the franchise in a similar way that they did with their Wolfenstein series two years prior. Slick and polished with very little story to get in the way of the action, players set out to slaughter a lot of demons in amusing ways and it was a lot of fun.
Doom Eternal is a lot like the 2016 reboot, in that the Slayer (i.e. Doomguy, the player) is still tasked with dispatching hordes of demons in imaginative ways with an exotic arsenal of weapons. And, of course, it’s good fun. Gratuitous, but still good fun. Continue reading Doom Eternal PC review

Big Ben’s Overpass gives players to chance to try their hand at negotiating extreme terrain on UTV and ATV off-road vehicles.
Years ago, I was living in a house where one of my housemates was a huge motorsports fan. But he wasn’t interested in the clinical science of Formula 1, or even touring cars. He would watch crazy Icelandic drivers driving buggies up the vertical inclines of the island’s inhospitable volcanic landscape. Exhausting to even watch, the drivers would inevitably roll and flip their machines traversing an environment not meant to be driven across. Overpass, with its off-road action and challenging terrain, reminded me of that crazy Icelandic motorsport. Continue reading Overpass Xbox One review
