Review by Nick H. There are more than a few running jokes about gamers and film buffs never leaving the house, but the iHome iBN6 is an interesting option for those who do want to take their in-home entertainment somewhere else. It’s a speaker that is very durable while remaining…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. The entire DDNet team got together to test out Nintendo’s first attempt at DLC for its Mario Kart franchise. The Legend of Zelda x Mario Kart 8 pack adds new tracks and new characters into the mix. Did we enjoy it? Very much so. Mind you,…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. Digimon has been around for ages, but it’s never quite hit the heights of its peers. My kids got into it for a while (though it never took precedence over Yu-Gi-Oh! or Pokemon), but none of the family have really been concerned with the numerous game…

Read MoreReview by Nick H. The term ‘gaming keyboard’ indicates additional functionality above and beyond just precision typing. But that implies that it should also do typing very well, and while I spent more than enough time using my mouse and keyboard for gaming, I actually use my keyboard for traditional…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I am completely convinced it is more difficult to make a game for children than any other genre. Because simply making a simple, watered down version of whatever existing genre the developers have decided to appropriate won’t work. Children are not stupid, they understand and demand…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. Pool is a very strategic game. It’s not just that there are the various angles and shots a person can play, but as with poker, it’s more important to consider your opponent than what is in front of you. If I do not think I can…
