Do you think you can do a better job than Ole Gunnar Solksjaer when it comes to managing Manchester United (or in this year's game, 'Man UFC')? Or have you ever wondered how'd Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham fare playing together alongside Mohammad Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold? Do you enjoy staring at endless data and graphs, extrapolating th...
Lay out all of the gadgets you regularly use on a daily basis. Your smartphone, laptop(s), perhaps your wireless headset or earbuds and even your tablet if you happen to have one. Oh, you are one of the few people in 2021 who carries around a dedicated camera as well? Add that as well. Quite a stash isn't it? Which leads to this question: how do...
There are three things in life that are certain: death, taxes and Alienware's latest flagship gaming laptop receiving significant improvements from its predecessor. In my review of the M15 R3 last year, I equated it to a sportscar. Like the 911 GT3, both 'tick all the right boxes when it comes to serving their purpose, while also offering someth...
The Samsung Galaxy Buds2 is the fifth and most recent iteration of Samsung's range of Bluetooth earbuds. Since its unveiling in 2019, Samsung has gone through several improvements to their Buds lineup, significantly improving them with each iteration and offering one of the most appealing choices for anyone in the hunt for compact in-ear wireless e...
To claim that first-person shooter gamers are blessed this year would be an understatement. Come the final two months of 2021, we have three major FPS titles coming our way instead of the customary one or two we've been getting these past couple of years. On 5th November, Call of Duty: Vanguard drops while Battlefield 2042 swoops in two weeks after...
Platform(s): Xbox Series (version played), PS5, Xbox One, PS4, PC, Nintendo Switch Genre: Annual football game from EA As someone who's played a heckaton of football games, the most infuriating part of these games, at least in my books, is the defending. Very rarely do the big two of football sims; FIFA and PES got it right. Missed a tackle? Go...
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 is a marvel of technology. When the smartphone industry widely adopted the flat, slab-like form roughly 12 years ago, many assumed that it was the end of the clamshell, flip phone form factor. But thanks to the advancement of technology and breakthroughs in material science engineering, flip phones are back in fashion...
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 is more than just a gimmick. It is a near-perfect smartphone. The Galaxy Z Flip 3 is a wonderful amalgamation of cutting edge technology, style statement and an awesome throwback to the late 90s and early 2000s. It was a unique point in time when mobile phone makers pushed the limit not only in what a phone was able t...
For a standalone episode that comes at the back of two highly successful seasons, Kingdom: Ashin of the North is surprisingly a perfect entry point for anyone who is yet to be acquainted with this one-of-a-kind, period zombie franchise set in medieval Korea. A special episode highlighting an ominous figure seen at the tail-end of Season 2, Ashin...
Say goodbye to PES. It's no more. Well, in name, at least. Just like how football clubs shuffle their players in order to gain that sliver of an edge over their rivals, so has Konami with the rebranding of their long-standing, annual football simulation release. In a story first broken by IGN, PES will henceforth be known as eFootball. On top...
Having reviewed the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra a while back, picking up the Samsung S21 5G feels akin to jumping from a finely tuned track car into the seat of a roadworthy version of the same model. Everything from the feel to performance felt familiar, yet much more ... civilized. Where the Ultra boasted industrial-like specs and a body made of ...
Platforms: Your country's health organization & body Genre: Life-saving initiative against worldwide pandemic As part of the initiative to speed up the distribution and uptake of COVID-19 vaccines in Malaysia, the Malaysian government recently made limited quantities of the Oxford-AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine (or AZ for brevity's sake) avai...
I recently came across the following tweet making its rounds in the Malaysian Twitter-sphere. Essentially, the caption read "If you think that there's no future in video games, look at them" accompanying the photos of two leading video game streamers in Malaysia, Mohd Faris “Soloz†Zakaria and the other, Imran 'Vokey' Rosli. Whil...
When it comes to phone innovation, where do you draw the line and say "enough"? If it's Asus you're asking, their solid answer would most probably be "But why?" The Asus ROG Phone 5 is Asus' latest iteration of their market-leading gaming smartphone device. Swiftly following last year's release of the highly impressive ROG Phone 3, this year's v...
Platforms: Xbox Series, Xbox One, PC, PS5, PS4 Genre: Online-only looter shooter from the folks behind Bulletstorm To my horror, the gamertags at the top right corner of my screen went from green to red in an instant. Both my teammates were down. My partner whom I queued with, the Trickster was felled almost simultaneously, right next to the random...
The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra is Samsung's flagship, tentpole smartphone model of 2021. Considered the beefiest version of the already impressive S21 range - which itself already presents a leap from last year's solid offering - the S21 Ultra is akin to the Xbox Series X to the Series S of the 'standard' S21 variation. It's huge, comes with all the ...
Microsoft Corp. is in talks to acquire Discord Inc in a deal which may be worth US$10 billion, according to some folks who are deep in the development. Via a brief piece on Bloomberg, no deal is imminent according to the source who asked not to be identified. Another source said that Discord is more likely to go public than sell itself. Still fr...
Let's lay down some facts first. A number of us at Kakuchopurei have been primarily PlayStation gamers. While we have owned Xboxes in the past - specifically the Xbox 360 and the Xbox One - the PlayStation have always been our go-to piece of home console gaming hardware. Its ecosystem, game selection, and the fact that a bulk of our gamer friend...
For more 2020 gaming goodness, head here. #4: Cyberpunk 2077 (PC, Xbox Series, PS5) CD Projekt Red's magnum opus CRPG of 2020 is obviously an undercooked broth that needs more time on the stove if December's many game-related headlines are of any indication. Heck, it's hard to excuse the fiasco the company has put itself into, what with the y...
For more top 30 of 2020 write-ups, head here. #15: Valorant Don't let anyone tell you any different; Valorant is a breath of fresh air in the supersaturated first-person shooting game sphere. Sure, some will label it an Overwatch copy with the shooting mechanics of Counter-Strike. But to actually straddle both elements, make it their own, ...
