Which board game should you play when it’s just you and your favourite other person? Let’s review some games that work well with two players.

Click through to see my latest review. It's of the Traxxas Slash 2-WD racing truck, which is a 1/10th scale radio controlled vehicle with speed, power, and a bit of a wild side. The results of my testing were somewhat mixed, but the Slash is most definitely worth a serious look to any RC hobbyist. Come on in and check it out!

For Parrot, the Bebop 2 was an incremental improvement over the original, focusing primarily on battery life, flight stability and improved optics. While the drone still hasn’t changed since it launched, how it flies now has with the FPV bundle it comes with. Using the new SkyController 2 and CockpitGlasses headset, flying it looks and feels very different from before.

For the most part, many of the iOS based toys nowadays have potential, but are very limited to what they can do. The Parrot Mini-Drones for example were fun, but not that expansive in ability. They both also cost more than the Sphero Ollie, a brand new challenger into the fold. Ollie comes from the same science and physics loving minds behind the Sphero and promises to continue branching fun and physics at an affordable price. You know what? It’s great fun too.  Come check out the Sphero Ollie.
