Trending: DigiGames 2015 Promo Only Promotions Summer Sessions Music Feud |Quiz Game Technology & Wireless Buzzers provided by DigiGames. Photo credit: Matt Jyhla We had the pleasure of chalking up an evening of uncommon fun at our recent company party, where somewhere between great eats and Santa's open bar we found ourselves squaring off for a no-holds-barred, inter-departmental game of 'Promo Only Feud'. What ensued is best left to the imagination, but what can't be denied is that a good time was had by all, thanks to DigiGames.

Review: Cooler Caps Upfront, it's worth pointing out that Coolorcaps go well beyond providing signature bling. Visibility, ergonomics (the struggle is real for sausage-fingered DJs working cramped controllers), and the discomfort that accompanies repeated use of hard plastic controls can all be greatly improved with a few well-chosen replacements.
