Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

2025 is still a long way off, but that hasn’t stopped the Grand Theft Auto VI hype-train from leaving the station. And as fans wait to play the game, some of the more ambitious among them are remaking that initial trailer shot-for-shot in other games.R...
You might have watched the new Grand Theft Auto VI trailer a few times since it was released in December 2023. Maybe you even paused it once or twice to spot a detail. But I bet most of you haven’t sat down and spent a few hours researching and writing...
Gaming’s biggest night has come and gone, and perhaps the biggest surprise of all was just how little time devs were given to thank their family, fans, and recently deceased colleagues during their acceptance speeches. But before that, we finally got o...
Grand Theft Auto VI is setting out to be a much better-looking game than even Red Dead Redemption 2, as highlighted in a new video shared online. The new comparison, put together by Cycu1, puts sequences from the reveal trailer side by side with similar sequences in the second entry in the Old West open-world series, further highlighting how the visual leap will be massive, especially when it comes to the finer details, physics and more. Considering the footage from the Grand Theft Auto VI reveal trailer is not really indicative of the final game's quality, the open-world title is […]
Judging from the Grand Theft Auto VI, Rockstar Games may be heavily leaning into ray tracing with the next entry in the series. A new analysis shared by the tech experts at Digital Foundry highlights how ray-traced global illumination and ray-traced reflections can be clearly spotted in the game's reveal trailer in the internal scenes with strong exterior light sources, where light bounce looks realistic and in the car sequence where the wing mirror reflection shows detail that is not present in the screen space. Rockstar Games may also be using a hybrid solution combining both software and hardware ray […]
Following the release of the record-breaking GTA VI trailer, there has been an equally large amount of reactions from all kinds of content creators and personalities. Among that sea, former Rockstar New England animator Mike York published his own reaction as an ex-employee of the studio. York worked on GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 for six years before leaving Rockstar (most recently, he worked on God of War Ragnarok in the final stretch to launch), and he was extremely impressed with the level of visuals achieved in GTA VI. It's not just a bigger city. Everything in the […]
So, how many times have you watched the Grand Theft Auto VI trailer thus far? To be honest, I’ve fully lost track for myself, but as the internet pores over it for the 98-millionth time, folks are starting to point out that many scenes of life in the f...
Yesterday, after literally years of speculation, rumors, and leaks, Rockstar finally dropped the first teaser for Grand Theft Auto VI. The trailer has gone over well for the most part, although some were surprised to note that the game will only be launching on Xbox Series X/S and PS5, not PC. Rockstar has made a habit of this over the years, but the industry has changed and outside of console exclusives either developed or paid for by Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft, it’s extremely rare these days for a big AAA game to be released exclusively on console without a PC […]
Grand Theft Auto VI’s big first-look trailer is hitting me with some deja vu. Back when Metal Gear Solid Ground Zeroes dropped its first trailer, my brain had to do a double take as the animations and lighting made me think I was looking at live action...
Last year Rockstar Games revealed that Grand Theft Auto VI would try to be a bit more “culturally sensitive.” The series has been known for over-the-top violence, a sweeping approach to satire of all elements of society, and, of course, a near total la...
Grand Theft Auto VI’s long-awaited first trailer has arrived and in the process confirmed that previous leaks and reports about the game co-starring a playable woman were accurate. However, this isn’t the franchise’s first playable female character. T...
Following the early release of the first ever Grand Theft Auto VI trailer, new comparisons were shared online, highlighting the amazing recreation of real life locations and the massive visual improvements over previous entries in the series. A new set of images put together by reddit user DanlyDanDanny highlight the amazing attention to detail in the Vice City recreation of iconic locations around Miami, such as South Beach and Biscayne Island. The recreation is so impressive that is sometimes almost hard to tell which is a real photo and which is a still from the reveal trailer. GTA 6 vs […]
