Apple finally included a telephoto lens in its iPhone 15 Pro Max last year, with the upgrade extended to the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. This is just one of the many examples of how the Cupertino firm adopts various standards much later than the competition, likely because it wants to offer the best configuration to customers. One other technology that the company is said to bring for the iPhone 18 that rivals like Samsung introduced years ago is variable aperture for the main camera, and according to one analyst, another supplier will provide these parts.

The use of TSMC’s second-generation 3nm process for the M4 series has made Apple’s latest chipsets more thermally efficient, but that does not mean that a capable cooling solution should be ignored from the rest of the hardware configuration. In fact, depending on how robust that solution is, we can actually get more performance from the M4, as demonstrated in the latest Premiere Pro 4K Export test, where the redesigned Mac mini is faster than Apple’s updated 14-inch MacBook Pro. However, one other hardware ends up taking the crown, and we will discuss why this is happening. The 24-inch M4 […]

You might not have to wait long to see what’s going on with the much-pilloried Borderlands movie starring Cate Blanchett and Kevin Hart for yourself from the comfort of your own couch. The box office bomb is reportedly coming to streaming as early as l...
Borderlands 3 launched in 2019, so you might not expect an update for the looter shooter in 2024. However, possibly due to the recent release of the (terrible) movie, Gearbox has put out a new, small, but genuinely awesome patch for Borderlands 3. Read...
After a very long wait, the live-action Borderlands movie finally arrives in theaters this weekend. But before that, the movie was screened for fans and critics in Los Angeles. And, based on the first impressions being posted online, the Borderlands mo...
The upcoming Borderlands movie might not have happened if it wasn’t for the spin-off narrative game Tales from the Borderlands, which gave Gearbox confidence that the universe could be more than just a looter shooter playground.Read more...

Released last week, The First Descendant is a new sci-fi third-person looter shooter from Nexon that feels like a mix between Warframe, Destiny, and The Division. Yet despite mixed reviews and controversy involving icons and in-game purchases, The Firs...
Korean mega publisher Nexon recently released its own take on the free-to-play looter shooter with The First Descendant. Since the birth of the genre over a decade ago, many titles have come and gone, but two of them have stood near the top pretty cons...
The First Descendant, Nexon’s new third-person sci-fi free-to-play online looter shooter is a lot like a bowl of so-so mac and cheese. I promise that opening sentence will make some sense by the end of this article, okay? Read more...
I’ve had some fun with The First Descendant but I wouldn’t say a strong, distinctive art style is one of its core virtues. It’s a pretty derivative game from head-to-toe. Now it turns out that some of the free-to-play loot shooter’s in-game icons appea...
Two years after we first covered the game ahead of a PC beta test, NEXON has finally released The First Descendant, its free-to-play third-person looter shooter game. During this time, the Unreal Engine 5-powered title underwent various tweaks and additions, some directly requested by fans (over two million users played the cross-play open beta). Beomjun Lee, Game Producer at NEXON Games, said in a statement: With The First Descendant being our first global multi-platform launch, we wanted to develop something that allowed the voices of our players to be heard. Our goal is not only to create a game that […]
Yesterday, independent game developer Fun Dog Studios (composed of industry veterans who worked on such games as Horizon: Zero Dawn, DOOM Eternal, Killzone, Hawken, The Witcher 3, and Mass Effect) shared the debut gameplay trailer for their first game, The Forever Winter. In this squad-based post-apocalyptic tactical co-op looter-shooter game, players will have to enter a maze of relentless 'PvEvE' conflict where multiple enemy factions fight to achieve their own goals. Squads of up to four players (or AI-controlled squadmates) face off against (or sneak past) hordes of colossal enemies, looting the fallen in a race to secure what's left […]
