The new Legion is a real solid slab of gaming laptop goodness. It’s robust, feels dense, and is the most powerful and performant of all the new notebooks we’ve been testing in this generation. It may feel like a classic big gaming laptop, but it’s still got some tricks up its sleeve which make it…
Built for gaming, the AceZone A-Blaze design skirts a fine line between affordability, portability, and practicality. Against previous AceZone wireless gaming headsets, we’re looking at a fairly cut-down model meant to bring pro-gaming audio to the masses. There’s a lot of competition in this price range though, and while the A-Blaze sticks to its roots…
Fallout’s second season just wrapped filming, which means we’re tantalisingly close to once again screaming at each other about Fallout: New Vegas. Personally, I can’t wait. I’m already gearing up to cancel you over your terrible Raul Tejada take and write an overly long dissertation on how that guy who hangs out on the Hotel…

“It became very easy for players to lose sight of what they should be doing”. If you grew up with a PlayStation, there is a good chance that you may have heard of Ape Escape — Sony Computer Entertainment’s 1999 platformer about a young boy tasked with travelling through time to round up a bunch…
While OLED gaming monitors might be a stretch goal for many of us, miniature versions are already being crammed into VR headsets. Much like their bigger, desktop-dwelling cousins, however, the price can be pretty prohibitive. Pimax may be bucking that trend, as it’s announced the Dream Air SE, a lighter weight, slightly lower-specced version of…
The news that Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 wouldn’t include the popular career mode from the original 4th game wasn’t received well when it was announced in March. Instead, the timed challenges from the first three games would replace the mode that so many skaters loved. In an interview with Game Informer, Iron…
If you’ve been keeping your finger on the pulse of AI developments, you’ll know that there’s growing concern about meeting the power demands of the data centers that train and run AI inference. Elon Musk’s Colossus supercomputer that powers Grok, xAI’s alternative to ChatGPT, tackles this by using over 30 methane gas turbine stations, but…
“Most of the CG designers were college students doing part-time work”. Developed as the first game to specifically require the use of the DualShock controller, Sony Computer Entertainment’s 1999 platformer Ape Escape (known in Japan as Saru Getchu) was built around a pretty simple yet ingenious premise. A bunch of mischievous primates have escaped from…
