Manic Mechanics Escapes Onto Xbox, PlayStation, and Steam

Last year, 4J Studios, the makers of Minecraft, released a car-themed twist on Overcooked called Manic Mechanics. The gameplay was great, but being a Switch exclusive, the game could have looked and run a little better. That's no longer a problem, thankfully, because Manic Mechanics has finally arrived on all the other big platforms. It supports 4-player local and online co-op, and it promises lots of party-style fun.

Custom Mech Wars (From the Publisher of EDF) Out Now on PlayStation 5 and Steam

Japanese publisher D3 Publisher's Earth Defense Force series has always provided addictive co-op thrills. Now D3 Publisher (which has apparently been bought by Bandai Namco) has unleashed an exciting new title on PlayStation 5 and Steam called Custom Mech Wars. This one lets players design wildly inventive custom mechs and then tackle missions together in 4-player online co-op. Yeah, that sounds a lot like EDF but with even more mechs!

Repair Cars as a Team in 'Manic Mechanics' for Nintendo Switch

The Overcooked formula has been adopted by numerous developers in the last few years, usually leading to fun games based on different professions (see: Lumberhill). Now 4J Studios (the Scottish developer that ported Minecraft to consoles) has its own take on the genre with the car mechanic-themed, Switch-exclusive Manic Mechanics. Featuring ea...

HyperX Blue Switches come to the tenkeyless version of the Alloy keyboard

HyperX Alloy Origins Core (with Blue Switches) Mechanical Gaming Keyboard Impressions

I’m a big proponent of HyperX’s Alloy mechanical keyboard line. Over almost five years, I’ve reviewed a lot of variants of the Alloy, and I’ve never come across one I haven’t been impressed by. A lot of this is probably because HyperX knows what they’re doing right with the Alloy, and new variants don’t dev...

A 60% keyboard collaboration between Ducky and HyperX

HyperX x Ducky One 2 Mini Mechanical Gaming Keyboard with Black Colorway Review

Earlier this year in May, HyperX and Ducky launched a collaboration: the HyperX x Ducky One 2 Mini Mechanical Gaming Keyboard. This was an exciting collaboration that partnered Ducky signatures (like 60% keyboard size and Ducky Macro 2.0) with HyperX hallmarks (such as in-house HyperX switches with exposed LEDs). Only 3700 units were released, and they sold out very quickly.

Tiny but mighty

ROCCAT Vulkan TKL Pro Impressions

Thanks to Co-Optimus, I've been fortunate enough to get fingers on a lot of keyboards over the years. It's clear that in the 12 years this website has been around keyboard technology has progressed quite a bit. The latest keyboard from ROCCAT Gaming is the shining example of this when looking in retrospect. I've been using the the ROCCAT Vulkan TKL Pro for the past week and I've come away incredibly impressed with modern keyboard keyboard technology.

The Alloy Origins strikes again, this time with HyperX's in-house Aqua/Tactile switches!

HyperX Alloy Origins Mechanical Gaming Keyboard (with Aqua Switches) Review

Last October, I reviewed the HyperX Alloy Origins Mechanical Gaming Keyboard (with Red/Linear switches) and had a lot of great things to say about it. Today I’m reviewing the same keyboard, but this time with Aqua/Tactile switches. While it would be easy to just say “The Alloy Origins with Aqua switches is great, just like the last vers...

HyperX Alloy Origins Mechanical Gaming Keyboard Review

If you’ve read some of my other peripheral reviews, you might know that I’m a big fan of the HyperX Alloy series of keyboards. The original Alloy FPS (reviewed three years ago in October of 2016) made me believe that mechanical keyboards weren’t all just hype. Since then, I’ve reviewed the Alloy FPS Pro, the Alloy Elite, and...

All Dressed Up But No Place To Go

Woo-dy Wooden 67 Keys RGB Mechanical Keyboard Review

Let’s have a moment of transparency. I don’t write in a formal office nor do I play games in a special gaming room built and arranged for just such a purpose; both of these things can happen in coffee shops, at friends’ places, or, most often, at home. Knowing that my work, pleasure, and daily life may bleed into one another at any given moment has kept me aware of the aesthetic that my dedicated work/gaming/living space has, even when I’m not using it. To that end, Woo-dy delivers a sleek, very sharp-looking keyboard that adds a no-frills aesthetic to whatever area in which the work may be getting done.
