With the Quantum 100X JBL have catered for a lower end of the market as well as the younger end. I think it’s fair to get that out of the way.
As a big lover of the JBL brand and a convert to the mantra of ‘Sound is Survival’, I have to say the Quantum 100X was not what I expected.

ROG Strix G16 is a mouthful, isn’t it?
I’m not a PC gamer by any means, apart from some Mac based Football Manager or CM 97/98 in Dosbox. The last gaming PC I bought would have been back around 1998, it was a pentium something and came with a CRT screen so big I could barely get it through a door.
Thanks to our friends at Asus, I got the chance to see what twenty odd years of R&D had done for gaming on a PC.

Backbone, from a design point of view the name fits. From a purpose point of view the name fits. What we have here is a very sleek and functional way to access remote play gaming on your phone.

The JBL Range continues to impress with the Quantum 910 Wireless. Having swapped out my 810 Wireless Headset for the much new and improved Quantum 910 Wireless Headset I find it hard to go back.
It’s not even a year since I wrote about the 810 Wireless, and everything I said then still stands today for the 910 Wireless. Albeit with a few extra Bells, Whistles and Quality.

Replikator had me at “Top Down Sci-Fi Shooter”. I mean what’s not to love, being a huge Alienation fan and having grown up on the likes of Alien Syndrome, and Alien Breed.
Choose a rag-tag character from a bunch of rag-tag characters, including a Space Racoon. Board some crusty Space Stations and fight your way to the Boss. Yes, we’ve been here before.

Advance Wars is a poster-child franchises for Nintendo. After tough turn-based campaigns on Gameboy Advance, it’s rebuilt now for the Switch. There is no mistaking the franchise has the Hearts and Minds of older gamers.
So now would be a good time to get it into the hands of today’s Nintendo faithful. Wouldn’t it?

Startup Company Console Edition brings a successful business sim to consoles after a strong outing on Steam. Danish devlopers Hovgaard Games have obviously laboured over this title with love.
Starting from the ground level with minimal investment, the aim is to manage your business empire “to the moon”. Interestingly the simulation is heavily geared towards the Social Media / Online Sales platforms we are familiar with.
On paper this game should be right up my alley, should be.
