UltraMon Review

Date Written: 6th June, 2010

Rating: 8.5

Type: Window Management

Windows default dual-monitor management is pretty shocking at the best of times. This is where Realtime Soft's UltraMon comes in and saves the day with a much need improvement over the default method for dealing with multiple monitors, giving you some handy shortcuts and an extended taskbar to help you manage windows over two monitors more efficiently....

This is a little program I discovered as I was switching my iTunes library from my desktop computer to my laptop. To get my music to my laptop I just copied it off of my iPod and stored the music on my laptop’s hard drive.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Review

Date Written: March 2, 2010

Rating: 9.0

Type: Shooter

It doesn’t feel like it’s been that long since we saw an epic shooter (read: Modern Warfare 2) and now, just two months into 2010, we’re seeing another one. While I haven’t played any of the past Battlefield games, Bad Company 2 is a fantastic addition into the franchise and EA DICE have done a superb job. As you would expect from first-person shooters as of late, the singleplayer campaign doesn’t really shine by itself; the multiplayer is the star of this show.

Type: Operating System

I recently was sifting through some old stuff of mine and came across my Windows 95 floppy disc collection – all 14 floppy discs required to install the classic Windows 95 operating system. So, here it is, the comparison between Windows 7, the latest and greatest operating system from Microsoft, and Windows 95 – the DOS-run OS from 14 years ago.

WinX DVD Ripper Platinum Review

Date Written: September 26, 2009

Rating: 8.0

Type: Media Tools

The reasonable purchase price and good range of presets for portable devices lead me to recommend the program to people who need “one-click” conversion to watch movies on portable devices. The presets are only available on the platinum edition.

Windows 7 Review

Date Written: August 22, 2009

Type: Operating System

It only takes a quick Google search to find all about how bad, slow and filled with bloatware Vista was, or at least accused of being. Could Microsoft hope to right all the wrong from Vista, and make it better than any of their previous operating systems? We installed the final RTM version of Windows 7 to find out.

F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin Review

Date Written: August 5, 2009

Genre: Horror Shooter

You have probably all heard of, or maybe even played, the first iteration of the famed First Encounter Assault Recon – better known as F.E.A.R.. The horror game makes a return again with F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin. Everything I loved about the first game is back again: slow-mo, scares and shooting, and most of it is improved upon

The Sims 3 Review

Date Written: August 3, 2009

Rating: 8.5

Genre: Simulation

Well, it’s been 5 years since the last instalment of The Sims and it sure has been a wait. The highly anticipated Sims 3 is about to reach stores and I am glad to say that the copy that I was given to review was a blast to play, as has the previous Sims games. Filled with great new features and retaining all the old Sims action this is a game that everyone should enjoy.

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Review

Date Written: August 2, 2009

Rating: 8.5

Genre: Shooter

Call of Duty is back, and this time it’s become modern. After 3 previous games being based on World War II it makes a nice change to see Infinity Ward straying from the classic and bringing it into a more modern sense. By doing this, it creates a much more real sense and the story does deal with a real sort of issue and based in locations that look similar to Iraq.

Prince of Persia Review

Date Written: August 1, 2009

Rating: 8.0

Genre: Fantasy Action Adventure

The climbing, running, jumping world of The Prince Of Persia is back in a remake of the original game. The graphics presented in this game are stunning and the animations are pure brilliance, but that doesn’t stop the game from being insanely easy and, at times, repetitive. Nonetheless it should be great fun for all that play it.

Need For Speed: Undercover Review

Date Written: July 15, 2009

Rating: 6.5

Genre: Street Racing

EA pulls together yet again to give another Need For Speed game to add to their collection, this time around naming it “Undercover” in reference to its story-line. The game tries to improve on the abysmal “Need For Speed: Pro Street” and does so with great cut scenes and some new gameplay, but it’s not an entirely joyful ride…
