Ross’ Top 5 Albums Of 2015

What a year it’s been in terms of music. What a bloody outstanding year. There have been so many good tracks and albums in the past twelve months, with some of my favourite bands releasing new work, surprise newcomers and outliers that I had never listened to before all contributing to make this one of […]

Real-Life Squid Sisters Concert Planned To Celebrate 1 Million Splatoon Sales

One of the most unique shooters possibly ever, Splatoon, has hit the big 1 million copies mark in its native Japan and, to celebrate, Nintendo has announced that a concert featuring the game’s iconic Squid Sisters will take place at the same venue as the Tokyo Game Show, the Makuhari Messe convention centre. It is planned for […]

Forge Mode Added To Halo 5 In Huge Update

Rather than delaying Halo 5: Guardians‘ launch, 343 Games and Microsoft made the decision to ship the game without the Forge mode that’s been present in all titles bar ODST since Halo 3, and looking at the size of Forge mode in Halo 5, it’s easy to see why. With a whopping 1,700 items for […]

RePlay: Halo 3: ODST

After around eight years or so, I’m finally ready to say my goodbyes to Halo. It was the franchise that made me get an Xbox 360, and I can recall countless evenings playing Halo 3′s excellent campaign in co-op or the great multiplayer of Reach. I even read the novels: Ghosts of Reach is still […]

Music Monday – Best of 2015 (So Far [The Other One])

It has been a hella good year for music so far. Some of my favourite bands released great new albums, some pushing the envelope and evolving their styles and others sticking largely to the templates they’ve created with their previous works. It’s been a veritable aural treat, with some of these songs being stuck in […]

EwTube: Team Fortress Ew

Fan films of Valve’s various universes have been around for years, thanks to the easy availability of Garry’s Mod, and more recently, Source Film Maker. As SFM is the software Valve itself uses in-house, it’s led to some incredibly creative videos that are near-indistinguishable from professional work. The majority of these videos are Team Fortress […]

As described by Riot themselves, she’s part of the juggernaut class, a type of solo lane fighter with equal amounts of health and damage, and is slow but powerful with a lot of zone control.

ReListen: Jeff Wayne’s War of the Worlds

Really, when you look at it, this is an absolutely ludicrous concept. “Let’s adapt a perennial science-fiction classic into a two-disc musical epic with spoken narration, progressive rock and orchestral bombast”. It should never have worked. It would be like remaking 2001: A Space Odyssey as a dance-pop album (which Lady Gaga is probably working […]
