(Not stirred). The latest UK charts are in, and just like last week, the top spot has been claimed by a newcomer — another one that’s heading to Switch 2 at some point, no less. It’s 007 First Light that’s snuck off with the gold in its debut week, beating last week’s champ, LEGO Batman:…
With Asus’ ROG brand turning 20 years old this year, it has announced a whole pile of fancy black and gold gaming gear at Computex. Its new 82 g mouse is just as fancy as you’d expect and comes with some truly outrageous specs. Called the ROG Harpe II Extreme Edition 20, Asus’s new gaming…

With the RAMpocalypse doing its very best to ruin PC gaming, with memory and storage now ludicrously expensive, the handheld market has struggled to keep things affordable. Acer’s solution to all this is simple: bin everything needed to play games locally, and just make a streaming device instead. Officially called the Nitro Blaze Link, Acer’s…
