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.

Sony and Arrowhead Studios’ Helldivers 2 launched last week on PC and PS5, the rare PlayStation PC/console simultaneously release, and things are working out quite well for the throwback co-op shooter. Hellblade has been a consistent top 10 presence on the Steam charts, with the game peaking at over 200 thousand (203,312 to be exact) players yesterday. All that said, it hasn’t been entirely smooth sailing – as is often the case with online games, particularly unexpectedly popular ones – there have been some issues with matchmaking, maintaining connections, and other issues. Thankfully, Arrowhead have been working tirelessly, already issuing […]
Some new PS5 Pro details might have been revealed, including a possible price point for the rumored powered-up PS5 console. A lot has been said and written about a "Pro" version of Sony's current-gen console. Last year, alleged specs supposedly leaked, including GPU, CPU, and memory specs. In a new video from known YouTuber 'Moore's Law is Dead', some of these specs have been corroborated, although the rumored clock speeds of the CPU cannot be confirmed. Also, the YouTuber mentions that Sony is currently planning to use 16GB of GDDR6 memory (18Gbps) over a 256-bit bus. Additionally, 'Moore's Law is […]
Last week the gaming world was thrown into a grade-A tizzy, when XboxEra reported the rumor that Starfield would be going to PlayStation and other platforms. In short order, rumors that Indiana Jones and the Great Circle and even Gears of War were being considered for multiplatform releases began to make the rounds, raising the specter of Microsoft going fully third party. Well, we may want to slow down just a bit. Noted insider NateDrake/Nate the Hate, who has delivered accurate info numerous times in the past, was one of the first to endorse the XboxEra rumor, but it seems […]
Hideo Kojima has a lot of stuff on his plate, including Death Stranding 2 and the Xbox cloud-powered horror game OD, but perhaps the most exciting project for longtime fans is Physint, a new “action espionage” game in the vein of Metal Gear Solid. Since parting ways with Konami, Kojima has seemingly avoided a return to the stealth genre, so what convinced him to return? In his latest HideoTube video, Kojima provided a surprisingly raw answer for return to stealth – during the pandemic Kojima became sick, to the point of needing surgery and making out a will. At a […]
Sony is planning to make the PlayStation 6 the most powerful console of its generation and, as such, is not afraid to take as much time as needed to achieve this goal. A new video shared by RedGaming Tech this week provides some updates not only on Sony's next-generation system but also on the PlayStation 5 Pro. While Sony has yet to announce its mid-generation refresh system, it seems more and more likely the console is indeed releasing, as third-party studios started receiving dev kits recently. While this isn't a confirmation that the system is coming 100%, as hardware is […]
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has been a predictably big hit, but despite that, the game has seen surprisingly little in terms of post-launch and content beyond the usual big-fixing patches. A New Game+ mode was promised to arrive before the end of 2023, but was ultimately pushed back to sometime in 2024. Well, it seems that sometime will be early next month, as Insomniac have announced New Game+, some new Spidey suits, and more is coming in early March. ❗ OUR NEXT UPDATE IS COMING MARCH 7 Our title update for Marvel's #SpiderMan2PS5 arrives next month and adds highly requested features […]
