Gifting A Console At Christmas

Posted on December 8, 2021 at 9:58 am

Buying a new console as a gift for a loved one can be an exciting time, especially when you know it is something they are going to love. But how can you gift a console in a unique way?

When your recipient may be expecting to receive this as a gift, you may wish to disguise it. One of the fun ways to do this is a box inside a box idea. This is where you put the gift into boxes that gradually get bigger. This will make it difficult for them to guess what their gift is.

You could also consider completing a treasure hunt. Hiding the gift in plain sight but giving them a treasure hunt with clues to be able to find it. These clues could lead them to believe they have another gift waiting for them making it more of a surprise.

Is The PS4 Pro Worth It?

Posted on May 13, 2017 at 12:09 am

In 2016 Sony launched two new versions of it’s flagship console. The PS4 Pro is a meatier and more powerful version of the standard model that is able to handle 4k performance gaming and High dynamic range processing.

The other new console is the PS4 Slim. It’s functionally the same as the base model, but is sleeker and lighter. It is officially becoming known as the main PS4 as the older models are phased out.

The PS4 Pro has a graphics processor that’s twice as powerful as the one in the base model PS4. It also has an upgraded processor which allows the console to handle physics and artificial intelligence in games more easily.

These features allow the PS4 Pro to make games look a little better graphically, which is a noticeable difference when using a 4k TV. But the PS4 Pro doesn’t have any exclusive games so is realistically only worth it if you want to use it with a 4k TV.

The first screen protectors that were available from retailers sold out fast, and for good reason. With the Switch being a handheld system, along with how it’s dock works, the risk of scratches to the screen are high.
