So a few months ago, I decided I wanted a supplement to my desktop that I could travel with and hopefully get some more writing done on. Being a Windows user and a big gadget nerd, I settled on two principal options before deciding on Microsoft’s entry-level Surface Pro 4. So, why did I buy […]

For nearly four years, Ubisoft had been hard at work on Splinter Cell: Conviction. Originally unveiled as a very different game from what the Splinter Cell series has represented in games prior, Splinter Cell: Conviction was a very intriguing change to the established Splinter Cell formula, forcing former secret agent Sam Fisher to hide in […]
