Three years after I started playing it I have finally finished Halo, the first one, on the original Xbox. It is one of the most aggravating games of all time. Between the stupid and constant arena death traps and the ridiculous vehicle controls and physics I can’t see why anybody thought this was a great game when it [...]
I’m a little late to the party on this one. Braid has been out for a while now on various platforms, but I only just picked it up during the Playstation Network 10 for 10 sale. At $14.99 Braid was considered a good buy by most critics, at the sale price of $7.49 it is [...]
Smash Cars is another attempt at a r/c racing video game mash-up. Just one of many. People have been drawing comparisons between this and Re-Volt since it was announced. ReVolt for all it’s flaws was a pretty fun racing game. Smash Cars with all it’s flaws is only a passable racing game.
Graphically it is very nice [...]
[ My review of the Thundertech Racing Pro-2wd is a two parter. This first part covers the features, assembly, and appearance. The second (coming soon) covers performance, durability, and hop-up potential. ]
I’ve seen the Thundertech Pro-2wd featured in RC Driver magazine, talked about on web forums and blogs, and in videos on youtube. It’s been [...]
Big wheeled, great looking, ground clearance to die for, fun. Those are all phrases you could use to describe Losi’s newest electric truck, the Highroller. It’s a purpose built basher that flies right and looks good to boot.
Features
The Highroller has a three gear transmission, a 12-turn closed endbell modified motor, and high performance speed control [...]
…for new and cool software. Earlier last week I was looking for a solution to control my laptop from my main computer. I looked at VNC and found, much to my dismay, that most free/open source clients no longer work with Vista due to a change in the way Vista handles network security. I experimented a bit [...]
Losi’s Micro-T is the next step in the fast growing mini and micro market of the r/c hobby and industry.
Everything you need is included, and it is the first truly self-contained, travel anywhere off-road r/c truck. The entire package includes a RTR truck with 27 Mhz transmitter, a battery powered peak charger for the included [...]
It has issues. They’re being worked out I guess, it seems to be getting better. There are still no trophies, but that’s not a big deal. The greatest crime of all though is that there isn’t support for CUSTOM SOUNDTRACKS! Come on guys in an online only game custom soundtracks are essential. If I had [...]
So I bought the Futaba 4PK after lusting over since it was first announced. It’s a costly beast, in the $500 range, but after just a few hours of use I can definitely say it’s worth every penny if you’re really into R/C. This is the first pro level transmitter that I’ve ever owned and [...]
It’s one of the best games on the PSP ever. Simply put. Graphically it’s outstanding, top of the class. If this is what the PSP is capable of then I can’t wait to see what’s coming for it. I mean it almost looks like a PS2 game, on a portable system. That is impressive.
The sound [...]
