Are The E-Win Champion Series Gaming Chairs The Ultimate In Comfort?

This post has been sponsored by E-Win Racing. Gaming chairs have exploded in popularity over the last few years. With so many different models of PC gaming chair on the market choosing one can be daunting. So when E-Win Racing contacted me about their E-Win Champion Series and why they’re some of the best gaming chairs out there I was naturally interested. Currently selling for $309 (with another 30% off using code PCGamer) on the official E-Win site, the E-Win Champion Series gaming chairs offers some serious bang for your buck. It starts with the solid steel frame that gives this PC gaming chair the strength and stability that you want and need when paying for a high-end product. A class 4 gas lift able to handle up to 150KG ensures that the Champion Series can handle any size of gamer. When it comes to comfort the chair features cold molding foam with a 55KG density. This means there’s ample support for those longer sessions without sacrificing durability. All that foam is wrap...

Near Perfect Assassination

Platforms: Xbox One, PC, PS4 Reviewed On: PS4 Pro Developer: IO Interactive Publisher: Square Enix Singleplayer: Yes Multiplayer: No Review code provided free of charge by the publisher So far I’ve knocked out people with a fish, a brick of cocaine, a thrown apple and a variety of blunt objects. I’ve also drowned people in toilets, blown them up with fireworks, fed them poisoned chips, shoved them off cliffs, dropped sharks on them, squashed them with speakers and so much more. I’ve dressed as a waiter, a garbage man, security, a fast food vendor, a servant, a racing driver, a doctor and even a pink flamingo. It’s all just in a days work for a professional Hitman. The 2016 sort of reboot of the Hitman franchise proved that Agent 47 was back in all of his bald, bar-coded glory. The idea of releasing new levels episodically was an intriguing one, encouraging you to replay each new level multiple times while you waited for the next but it proved divisive among fans who just wanted the...

Rootin', Tootin' And Some Shootin'

Platforms: Xbox One, PS4 (and probably never on PC) Reviewed On: PS4 Pro Developer: Rockstar Games Publisher: Rockstar Games Singleplayer: Yes Multiplayer: Online Mode to be released Talk about pressure. It was eight years ago that Red Dead Redemption, a sequel to the oft forgotten Red Dead Revolver, hit consoles and took the world by storm. Rockstar are known for their craft, but even by their standards RDR felt special, a western in video game form that told the story of John Marston, the gruffest man who ever did gruff. Eight years is a long time to wait for a sequel. Well, a prequel, actually, as now we delve into the infamous gang of Dutch Van der Linde, the very same bunch that John was ultimately tasked with taking down eventually. With the narrative shadow of Marston looming over everything, can the game still tell a compelling story while improving on the wild west themes? Yes, yes, and a thousand times yes. Reviewing Red Dead Redemption 2 feels nigh on impossible with...

Brilliantly Chaotic Racing

Platforms: Xbox One, PS4 Reviewed On: Xbox One Developer: Codemasters Publisher: Codemasters Singleplayer: Yes Multiplayer: Yes Review code supplied free of charge by the publisher T he racing genre can be tricky to innovate in, especially since many of the titles coming out tend to focus more on the realism side of things. Onrush, though, wants to bring back the arcade thrills while also doing something a little different, ditching the normal racing concepts of trying to be ahead of anyone else, finish lines and laps. Instead, it brings in a little bit of Rocket League, a dab of Overwatch and a hell of a lot of destruction derby to create something that acts as a welcome kick in the racing genre’s nads. Overdrive is the main mode of the game and also the best example of what Onrush is all about; two teams of six vehicles collide with the aim being to score points by boosting, and to earn more boost you jump, smash, slide and basically drive like a freaking lunatic that’s tryi...
