Sennheiser MX-365

WHAT IS

Earphones

1. GOOD FIT: these earphones are perfect for prolonged use.
2. GOOD SOUND: Every frequency is well balanced. Bass frequencies are deep but not too deep to mask the highest ones.
3. OK TO MAKE MUSIC: if you are a musician, these earphones are good enough to provide a fast, portable and reliable audio feedback.
4. EXTERNALLY QUIET: playing loud music won't annoy people around.
5. EASY TO FIND IN SHOPS: in Europe they can be found in every mid/large hi-tech shop.
6. STILL GOOD WITHOUT FOAM: with the foam they wear and sounds better, but without foam they are still comfortable and good sounding.
7. PERFECT CABLE LENGTH: cable length is just perfect, not too short nor too long.
8. AVAILABLE IN MANY COLORS: in case you care about color matching with you apparel

1. NO LONG LIFESPAN: sadly this is a common problem of the (many) Sennheiser earphones I had. After about one year of daily use the sound quality start to drop a little (with some crackling noise too). If not handled with adequate care will lead in damaged earphones.
2. SHOULD BE CHEAPER: this earphones are just a repaint (with a very little sound enhancement) of the MX-170. Problem is the MX-170 are just half the price.

FINAL RATE

8/10 ...great earphones

PERSONAL COMMENT
Probably one of the best earphones in this price tag. If you don't care about fancy color and can live with a little less deep bass frequencies, I suggest the MX-170 instead that are sold half the price.

Ridge Racer UNBOUNDED

GENRE

Arcade drive'n'destroy.

CAR ACCIDENTS: best feature of the game. Crashing opponents cars is spectacular and addicting.

1. GRAPHICS: bold, shining, well detailed and with a good variety of locations.
2. REQUIREMENTS: on PC the game is not demanding.
3. GAMEPLAY: generally really well done. The game provides a good variety of funny challenges and situations.
4. TRACKS: designed very well (from a racing point of view) and fulfilled of destructible buildings and stuff.
5. PHYSICS AND DRIVING: really solid physics (the best I've seen in a videogame). Each car has a well defined personality.
6. DIFFICULT BUT NOT FRUSTRATING: races are unpredictable due the high aggressiveness of the opponents.
7. GREAT AI: CPU opponents drive in a natural and engaging way. They are smart  and will do the possible to make you loose.

1. SOUNDTRACK: (attention: subjective opinion) Uninspired. Forgettable. Out of scope. And Skrillex...
2. NO CAR CUSTOMIZATION: just select one of the four colour schemes and drive.

FINAL RATE

8/10  ...just great

PERSONAL COMMENT

A pure arcade driving gem.
