Asus Transformer Book Duet TD300 hands-on review The Asus Transformer Book Duet TD300 is an 13.3-inch 1920 x 1080 Full HD IPS touchscreen tablet and laptop convertible.

At £299 it’s a small fraction of the cost of the sort of computers you might see advertised on TV and in cinema ads.

Some of these entries may contain in-game transactions or the offer of paid DLC, but the one thing they all have in common is zero barrier to entry – at least no financial barrier – we can’t account for skill. In its current incarnation, the free-to-play model itself is relatively new in the wider gaming landscape; with some long-standing titles that were originally pay-to-play, or indeed pay-to-win, throwing out such traditional sales models in the hopes that removing the entry fee will bring in more players, not only raising the chances for in-game purchases but creating a larger, healthier player base overall....

One of the biggest areas for improvement is in audio, as the in-ear headset that comes in the box is unlikely to keep players satisfied for long, with thin audio and a crackly mic. With that in mind, we’ve rounded up the best headsets we can find for the PS4 that should keep your online trash talk crisp and clear. Gaming headsets have a tendency to lie a little on the garish end of the spectrum, so it’s a relief to find the SteelSeries Arctis line, which actually looks like something we’d be happy to wear in public....
