    Microsoft Studio Surfaces (first looks)
    Microsoft’s Surface Studio, a 28” "tab-top" touch workspace, and Studio Dial are now in Australia.

  • Persona 5 review: Anime high school never looked so good

    Persona 5 review: Anime high school never looked so good
    Persona 5 review: Anime high school never looked so good Pretty sure train rides aren't this short in real-life Japan, though... I’ve been enamoured with the Persona series as a result of Persona 4 Golden.

While it’s been a long time in the making, Persona 5 is finally here to break the streak of P4 spino..

Earlier on Monday, my wife let..

    Samsung's biggest challenge now is Google software, not Apple hardware
    It's an occupational hazard among gadget geeks to fixate on new hardware, and yesterday's introduction of the gorgeous Galaxy S8 by Samsung made that easier than ever. I could write for days about how pretty and pleasant that new handset is. But I also ...

  • First Thoughts: New-to-franchise player vs Mass Effect Andromeda

    First Thoughts: New-to-franchise player vs Mass Effect Andromeda
    I’ve played very little of the Mass Effect trilogy. I actually played Mass Effect 3 before I played the original game, but that was only the then newfangled multiplayer component. From the multitude of friends who raved about the series, I knew I’d missed out, particularly when it came to the idea of transferring a narrative thread between games (very cool).
