Westworld

Westworld is a Sci-Fi lovers dream! From JJ Abrams and Jonathan Nolan, starring Anthony Hopkins and Ed Harris, the show is based on a 1973 movie written and directed by Michael Crichton (Jurassic Park/Lost World writer)

Now, the premise, is based on a future that isn’t too far from our own world right now, people go to a theme park (see the Michael Crichton link) where we as human’s get to live out our craziest fantasies through robots. Dress up as a cowboy and get into gun fights with cyborgs, go to strip clubs or even get drunk in the local robot bar (without actually getting drunk)

 

All seems fun right?

Well here’s where it all goes wrong. Said robots become too intelligent and are self aware, well, you can guess what happens next. The robots, go all terminator on the hosts and start causing trouble and fighting back against the humans.

AMAZING!

We can’t suggest this enough, when you can make sure you check it out!

Amazon Fire Tv Stick

We love our streaming here at How To Kill An Hour and HDMI Dongles are increasingly becoming more and more popular than a standard set top box, due to their ease of use and portability.

Producer Bill got to check out the Amazon Fire Tv Stick recently as he is interested in the brand new exclusive show ‘The Grand Tour” at £33 he couldn’t let this great offer slide and picked one up!

It was incredibly easy to set up and use and within minutes you are able to start enjoying your content on the big screen. You plug it into a Free HDMI slot, plug it into the wall if your tele doesn’t put out enough power for it to work, watch a short instruction video and you’re free to binge to your hearts desires.

Plus what makes it even better is that if you have a Prime Video subscription you’re already signed in (As it is an Amazon product) and ready to go with that so no need to labour around and remember passwords to things all your content is right there to watch! All in glorious HD too (4K if you decide to go the set top box route) there’s no 5.1 available unfortunately but you can plug it into a receiver to work around this. With 8gb of storage and 1GB of memory the stick is incredibly fast for such a small device and no LAG which is great for gaming too! (Crossy Road is available and for FREE too!)

Perchang!

We have been killing a lot of time Perchang this week! It’s a FREE app which test your skill and puzzle solving across a mammoth 60 levels! So you won’t get bored of this app!

There are a lot of skill testing games included such as testing your co-ordination skills to guide tiny balls into their goal, be that a flipper or a hole or even a cog. But once you have done this it activates the next portion of the puzzle, however, if you take too long to get to the end of the puzzle you fail, you’re against the clock!

You’ll get faster and faster at completing these levels the more you play, thus increasing your co-ordination skills as you go, so there’s a healthy benefit to killing time too!

Crossy Road!

Remember back in the good ol’ days we had Frogger? No?

Well if you’re too young to remember Frogger it was a simple game, basically you had to get the frog as far as possible up the field as you can, avoiding things like water and crocodiles.

Well Crossy Road has modernised that game with tons of different characters and added features like collecting coins and challenges that you have to complete. But this time with a chicken. Why did the chicken cross the road. Well you’re about to find out!

With over 100,000,000 downloads these guys must be doing something right and for one, we find it incredibly addictive! You always want to see if you can get just one step further! Plus the added bonus is that it is incredibly easy to just pick up and play!
