The Asus ROG Zephyrus is one of the nicest laptops I’ve tested in recent memory, almost ruined by an unnecessary RTX 4090. Let me explain—because the Zephyrus G14 does some things very well.

Trying to figure out where to find the Streamside stash key in Alan Wake 2 is a bit of a conundrum.,. The only clue you’re given is a crudely drawn picture of a lightbulb stuck to the top of the Cult Stash, so you’ll need to figure out how to find the key for the…
Let’s kick (clam) shell. It would seem that Chinese manufacturer Miyoo is looking to capitalise on nostalgia for Nintendo’s GBA SP with a new model of its Miyoo Mini emulation handheld (thanks, Retro Dodo). Rumours of a ‘Miyoo Mini Flip’ have been circulating all year, with design images and photos leaking online – and subsequent…
One of the most ambitious mods in history got even bigger today with the release of Tamriel Rebuilt’s Andaram expansion, the seventh major add-on for the 22-year-old Morrowind mod project that is, somehow, older than Morrowind itself.
