Even though the GameSir brand isn’t one that immediately springs out, it is one that has delivered the goods over the years. We’ve been hands-on with a number of their products, with them becoming one of the leads in the Cloud Gaming scene – we especially like the GameSir X2 Pro Gaming Controller as a

Okay, we’re sold.  It’s taken a good few weeks. It’s taken us to put down and step away, to come back at a later time. But finally we understand the draw of the HexGaming ULTRA X Controller for Xbox. And right now, as we type this, we love it. Ask us again in a week 

Coming from developers Upstairs Digital is a new entry into the fairly crowded “party game” genre; a game going by the name of Oxyjet.  Set in outer space, Oxyjet features an interesting premise – you have to damage your spaceship in order to make it move. Yes, you heard that right and the only way

Following on from my musings/scribblings about the murky world of arcade racing games on the Xbox, it would seem that the time is finally ripe for me to cast the net a little wider, and consider the world of sim racers. Yes, the kind of racing games where you know that if you can just

Never bring a sword to a gunfight. More specifically in the case of this review, never bring a swordship to a gunship fight. You WILL die.  While that ‘Swordship’ title might make you think that you can defend yourself, you can’t. This is a shoot ’em up where you’ve neglected to bring a weapon. It’s

I have to be honest, if you had told me back at the beginning of 2022 that one of my favourite games to be released in the next twelve months would be a minimalist, retro looking cross between a shoot ‘em up and a roguelite, I’d have laughed in your face. This is the year

It’s an age-old question: “What do you want to be when you grow up?”. I often jumped from one profession to another including astronaut, teacher and even TV presenter, to name but a few. However, the humble firefighter never made it onto my shortlist. But now Firefighter Simulator – The Squad (or FFS if you

Eat, sleep, occasionally shower, repeat: It is what the Christmas holidays are all about.  Yet in an attempt to not lose too many brain cells this festive period, Lightwood Games have brought out another puzzler. Crossovers by POWGI may have released back in 2019 for the PlayStation 4 and PS Vita, but its arrival on

It’s hard to get too excited about a power bank, after all, it’s very much a case of plug, play and enjoy the charge that they offer up. But the excitement with Excitrus products is pretty much built into the name. That’s the case for the Excitrus 105w Power Bank Ultimate.  We use power banks

There are classic beat ‘em ups like Streets of Rage, Fatal Fury and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles that many gamers would think of before this next title. But, that may be because it goes by different names. Water Margin anyone? A Tale of Clouds and Wind instead? Or this new name: QuByte Classics – The

Kick off the new year with two great January Games with Gold! On Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, adventure through light and shadow in Iris Fall, and then set worlds in motion in Autonauts. Xbox Live Gold members will have exclusive access to these games for a limited time as part of Games with

As an owner of two rabbits myself, I find the concept of this name game offensive. My thinking is that the world would be a better place if everyone had a rabbit or two in their life. That was until I saw the trailer for this next game and saw a man dressed as a

Obsidian Entertainment is proud to announce the release of Pentiment’s soundtrack, available on some of your favorite streaming platforms — with a vinyl double album coming in 2023. To fit the game’s art style, the Pentiment team wanted to make sure that the soundtrack reflected the instruments and music of 16th century Europe. To achieve

Not to be too pessimistic but in the distant future, when we live in a dystopian nightmare, there will only be a couple of things that unites humanity. We will all own a gun of some sort, but they won’t be self-defence. Instead, people will use them to play the only sport in town that

Yes, we’ve played our Elden Rings, Plague Tales and LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Sagas. In fact, we’ve recently awarded the coveted TheXboxHub Games of the Year 2022 award. But we wouldn’t be doing our job if we didn’t give some special love to the indies!  For those perseverant small, independent studios, or even solo

Don’t listen to the naysayers, 2022 has been a cracking year for gamers. Whether it’s thanks to the blockbusting triple-A titles that have taken home the billions, the double-A wannabes below that or the weekly releases from the indie and micro devs out there, there have been a ton of game releases to enjoy.
