Final Fantasy XV by Square Enix
Welcome to MacDirectory's first edition of 2017.
There were many announcements at CES last month, and I am personally very
excited for what is to come later this year. The automotive industry and the gaming
industry are both advancing a tremendous amount, from self-driving cars to virtual
reality peripherals that will make each experience even more real. We have a special
feature in this edition dedicated to CES; be sure to check it out.
Innovation is at the core of our brand, and this edition we wanted to highlight seven
innovative products for the gamer in your family, or the photo enthusiast (even the
adventurer). We also have a very special Valentine's Day Buyers Guide. Not sure what
to get that special someone? We've got the gifts that they need and want.
Although it's winter time, we sent one of our writers to warmer locations to test the
latest GoPro HERO5 and the new H20 Ninja Snorkel Mask. In his review, he tells
us that now you can breathe underwater—I don't know about you, but I was very
intrigued when he said this.
We also continue to cover the latest in audio technology. Looking for over-the-ear
headphones, Bowers & Wilkins' P7 Wireless was our pick, and if you are looking for
something in-ear and very fashionable, then the A
ëdle's ODS-1 is unlike any other
in-ear headphones.
We continue our search for the most innovative, smart vaporizer. Find out what the
Hydrology 9 and the IQ vaporizer can do, that other vapes can't.
Finally, we will be attending PAX East this year, and have added a PAX section where
you can get the latest news available. Look for our PAX feature in the next edition.
Not sure what to play until PAX? How about Final Fantasy XV or Call of Duty: Infinite
Warfare—we had a blast playing it!
Thank You!
