If you have been checking out the site recently, then you will have likely seen that I am currently getting knee deep into MTG. The MTG Newbie series of articles is basically a way for other newbies, or potential newbies, to watch and learn from my journey. With that in mind, an awesome new set called Wilds of Eldraine recently dropped, which naturally means that is where I have spent most of my time. So this review will cover my thoughts on the set, but keep in mind as a newbie to the game, it will have that perspective. So…

With something as big as Magic: The Gathering, trying to figure out where and how to start is intimidating as hell. I bought and checked out Magic: The Gathering Game Night: Free-for-All 2022 and found it a great way to start playing with actual cards. I was sent the new Magic: The Gathering Starter Kit 2023 to test out, and there are ways this is pretty damn superior, especially when it comes to price. So what’s in this kit? This kit is nice and basic; it comes with two pre-built 60-card decks. Each deck contains 2 mythic rare cards, 6…
I’m getting knee deep in the MTG Newbie series here on Yeah Nah Gaming. This insanely fascinating trading card game has gotten its hooks well into me now. A big part of this is that the game is actually bloody fun, and the biggest part is Bea DND. I’ve now been to a couple of their events, and the consistent fun I have had there is entirely why I’ve been enjoying this game. I went to check out their latest tournament, which was a sealed store championship using pre-release packs. Unsurprisingly, I loved it. What the hell is a pre-release…

With a fantasy world and shooting at your fingertips, the question is: was it worth it to replace a gun’s pew pew pew with your hands magical pew pew pew? It’s basically a shooter https://youtu.be/KPBJlCWCtco The first thing I wanted to know was…
When I checked out the HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2 wired earlier this year, I was impressed with my experience. Its weight, simple design, comfort, and price make it an excellent, affordable option. So with this in mind, I was keen as hell to check out the wireless version. And here we are! The wired version in most of the best ways Looking at the wireless mouse next to the wired version, in almost every way, it’s the same mouse. It looks, feels, and is used just like that mouse. The nice, simple aesthetic with minimalist lighting gels with me. It’s…
When it comes to Magic: The Gathering, you may be curious about it for a fun evening, but the whole thing seems a touch too much to get into.

The better news is that one of the best ways to get stuck in is through the board game version, Magic: The Gathering Game Night: Free-for-All. What is Magic: The Gathering Game Night: Free-for-All? Great question; I’m glad you asked. Magic: The Gathering Game…
The OG PSVR had a surprisingly wide selection of games by the time the PSVR2 rolled out with some solid FPS on offer. With the upgrade to PSVR2 that back catalog was lost so PlayStation has brought their shooter Firewall: Zero Hour forward to PSVR2 as Firewall Ultra. https://youtu.be/pqSJRTTiTtM If you have played Firewall: Zero Hour then you basically know what you are in for. The maps, as far as I experienced, are the same. The game modes are basically the same but with a slightly better offline mode, it’s more or less the same game. The big upgrade here…
