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 […]

The game was revealed with a cinematic trailer shown during today's Xbox Partner Preview showcase, which gives off some serious Dead Space vibes.

Arcadia Bay is all but a forgotten memory for some. Washed away in a brutal storm, the town that Max Caulfield, Chloe Price, and so many others called home has simply ceased to be. Now, years after those traumatic memories have finally subsided, Max is ready to pick things back up and start a new life in Life is Strange: Double Exposure. Square-Enix invited us to take an early look at the first two chapters of Life is Strange: Double Exposure in their entirety. This will be the same Early Access that owners of the Ultimate Edition will gain access […]
There was a slight decrease in global PC shipments in Q3 2024 compared to Q3 2023, where Apple was the most affected company. The worldwide shipments for PC hardware declined by 2.4% Y-o-Y but are expected to increase with AI hardware demand The global PC shipments are forecasted to grow significantly in the coming years but as of now, the overall shipments have declined a bit compared to the previous year. Since the transition to AI hardware, it's expected that the PC market will see a boom in the coming months and the slight decrease in shipments is only temporary. […]
The God of War Ragnarok PC port is most definitely solid, but it offers few options to scale visual settings beyond the PlayStation 5 version and sometimes looks worse than it as well. Earlier today, Digital Foundry provided an in-depth look at the port, highlighting how the new version of the game is a great way to play it, thanks to shader compilation issues being pretty much non-existent, thanks to the move to DirectX 12 over its predecessor, great support for ultra-wide and super-wide aspect ratios, NVIDIA DLSS, AMD FSR, and Intel XeSS upscalers, complete with frame generation where applicable […]
Newzoo's financial report for August 2024 is out, discussing the engagement and revenue rankings for the month. Many of the statistics aren't too surprising, with Black Myth: Wukong dominating the market. Although Black Myth: Wukong was incredibly popular and performed well in revenue, it didn't quite hit the mark regarding MAU (Monthly Active Users) rankings. Despite not performing well in the MAU rankings, it remained first in August and was the top-grossing game in six markets. This was a huge achievement for Game Science, the game developer, as they had only worked on mobile titles previously. The game was #1 […]
Ask any Dragon Ball Z fan in the mid-00s who the strongest fighter is, and you'll probably hear a million different answers. If you ask them instead to name the best Dragon Ball game, it would almost certainly be a unanimous call for Budokai Tenkaichi 3. In all of the years since the PS2 release, there hasn't quite been a fighting game featuring Goku that's captured that high (although Dragon Ball FighterZ certainly came close). As the 40th anniversary of Dragon Ball as a whole is rapidly approaching, Bandai Namco has revived the fighting tournament with the first new title […]
Visions of Mana's combat and diversity of player classes are the high points for the latest entry in a thirty-year old JRPG franchise that sadly has little else to show for itself to stand the test of time.
Worldwide PC shipments saw a whopping 8.8 million AI PC sales in Q2 alone, doubling the sales compared to the first quarter. With significantly higher sales compared to the first quarter, the AI PC segment is on the rise With the booming AI demand, AI-oriented hardware shipments are on the rise. PC hardware manufacturers are now focusing on developing specific hardware for AI applications to handle machine learning algorithms. Major chipmakers such as Intel, AMD & Qualcomm have added significantly faster NPU hardware into their latest SOCs to make sure that they are MS Copilot+ certified. The drastic change in […]
Until Dawn is one of the most well-known games created by Supermassive Games. It's time for the game to shine again. Released in 2015, it was a huge success for the PlayStation 4 and spurred Supermassive Games to make more games, such as The Quarry and The Dark Pictures Anthology. Now, it's time for Until Dawn to take the limelight again, as it's gotten an official release date for when it will launch on PlayStation 5 and PC. The story for Until Dawn will still be the same, but the game has been revamped massively to showcase the best cinematic […]

The PlayStation VR2 headset is finally becoming compatible with PC next week, and it seems like the headset works on PC as well as it does on PlayStation 5, according to a new video shared online. As reported by Gamergen on YouTube and summarized by ResetERA forums members Cilidra and DjRare, the Sony headset works very well on PC, with good tracking, image quality, and easy setup, even with the beta version of the app. The only complaints are the same for using the headset on PlayStation 5, namely the headset's cable and sweet spot. At the end of the […]
For those eagerly awaiting the new Call of Duty game, players won't have long to wait. The Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 beta is coming soon. It will be released simultaneously across all platforms, and subscribers to Game Pass can get early access to the game alongside those who have pre-ordered the game. It's been a long time since that happened. Due to contracts with certain platform holders, such as Sony, the beta used to be available first on PlayStation, much to the dismay of eager Call of Duty players. Now that Activision Blizzard is owned by Microsoft, though, […]
