2025 was a rough year—industry layoffs, chaotic tariffs, promising games dropping like flies, and a whole zoo of AI nonsense. And while none of that’s given me much in the way of hope for 2026, I have, at least, had a smile put on my face by today’s news: A hacker, dressed as the pink…
Every year, the CES event has tech vendors around the world showcasing their latest and greatest innovations and devices. Sometimes, though, it’s hard for your carefully crafted hardware to stand out in the ocean of gadgets, but Corsair reckons it’s done just that with its new Galleon 100 SD keyboard, with its built-in Stream Deck….
Asus has wheeled out some sweet new OLED panels at the CES. The most interesting is a pair of gaming monitors with so-called “RGB stripe” subpixel technology. Where things get confusing is that these two monitors in fact use completely different OLED panels. To cut a long story short, Asus has a new 34-inch ultrawide…
Crank up the AC. The new year is finally upon us, and with that comes a whole horde of new games to think about — yipee! 2026 is already looking pretty stacked, and while January is usually one of the quieter months in the release calendar, there are still a handful of big hitters coming…

Super Mario 64 ‘Coopware’ is available now. Super Mario 64 may have been released all the way back in 1996 (make that 1997 if you were based in Europe), but there has been no shortage of fans who have been busy finding new and inventive ways of keeping the game infinitely replayable in the modern…
Only 4000 copies up for grabs. We love ourselves a bit of Yacht Club Games’ stupendously good Shovel Knight series, and 2022’s Shovel Knight Dig, a collaboration with the maestros at Nitrome, even managed to swipe a rather excellent 9/10 in our review, where we concluded that the game “positively oozes quality, whether that be…
Head-turning cases at CES are hardly unusual, yet this year has already seen a couple of belters. CyberPowerPC has helped kick off this year’s show with a bang, flaunting a majestic mid-tower case that could fit into either an office space or a gamer den with ease. The case in question is the MA-01, which…
