Mad Catz Cyborg R.A.T. 7 Review
Mad cats, cyborgs, rats, and a mouse. Wait, what?
A new mouse has hit my desk - the so-called Cyborg R.A.T. 7. It's not yet available in Australia, it's been shipped straight from Mad Catz themselves! But, they didn't do it because they love me, it's a review unit so I could analyse it. And analyse it I did!

S.H.M.U.P Game Review
A new side-scroller has arrived on the scene. But does it deliver?

Price: $9.99
S.H.M.U.P is a new age side-scroller aimed at the casual gamer demographic. The developer Charcoal Styles describes his creation as "...a side scrolling shooter that doesn't need pixel perfect positioning, lightening reflexes or for you to remember bullet patterns. All you need to do is make stuff explode", which is quite an enticing prospect for those who refuse to dedicate countless hours to mastering tactics. It integrates the classic 'ship' vs 'intruders' style of gameplay where the player controls a series of circular ships via the humble mouse. The continually oncoming intruders are made up of basic shapes with a range of offensive and defensive mechanisms to keep the protagonist challenged. It's the duty of the player to protect the wall on the left hand side of the screen.

Sorry for the lack of updates!
Just thought I'd pop in to inform you all that I haven't abandoned the place!
I've been busy with university work, nonetheless, I've just started work on the site's very first review! It's the Rihac CISS (Continuous Ink Supply System), which acts as a large ink reservoir feeding ink into bubble jet printers. It's an awesome product, but does it perform well? To find out, watch this space! In the meantime, here's a picture to whet your appetite:
