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 […]

Compared to other games like Cyberpunk 2077, Starfield doesn't look as good, but the game developed by Bethesda can still be made to look great with select mods that improve its visuals A new video shared by Digital Dreams on YouTube shows the latest RPG by Bethesda running at 8K resolution on an RTX 4090 GPU with the Beyond all Limits Reshade ray tracing preset and over 50 mods, including the Natural and Atmospheric Space LUT.

Starfield players know the Starborn moniker very well, as it's discussed thoroughly in the main storyline of Bethesda's latest sci-fi role-playing game. However, a trademark registered earlier this month by Bethesda (and spotted by the ever-vigilant Timur222) suggests Starborn could be the title of an upcoming expansion for the game. As a reminder, Bethesda Game Studios is currently working on the first expansion, Shattered Space. Due to launch at some point in the Fall season for PC and Xbox Series S|X, here's its official description: A mysterious power stirs in the city of Dazra on House Va'Ruun's hidden homeworld. Investigate […]
Starfield's next update is apparently going to add the land vehicles that were talked about a while back to aid players in their exploration endeavors. As reported on the NoSodiumStarfield subreddit, buggies are coming in the next update, which will launch on a yet to be confirmed date. The buggies will come in two variants and are two passengers only, with a third optional passenger slot left for Vasco. NPCS from rescue missions will also be able to ride the buggy. Both buggy variations will have their weapons, a laser mode with slowdown and a launcher, and they will scale […]
Bethesda Game Studios is known for making some of the biggest open-world RPGs in gaming like Fallout 3 and Skyrim. Now it will also be known for being the first major studio in the U.S. to unionize across all of its teams. Read more...
Last year, a growing trend saw AAA video game publishers offering early access to new games if you pre-ordered a pricey special edition version. I worried then that if some publishers were successful in locking games behind a ransom fee, many others wo...
In June, Bethesda brought mods to the Xbox version of Starfield. Since then, fans have created a ton of cool and useful mods for the massive, space-faring RPG. And one fan has even started porting Star Wars ships like the X-Wing into Starfield on conso...
Starfield has just been made much better on Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, thanks to a new mod that finally allows seamless interplanetary travel. The IMPROVED Sublight Engine Boost mod, which is also available on PC, not only allows seamless interplanetary travel between planets and moons but also introduces tweaks for ship engines to make traveling more enjoyable, such as giving every engine extended boost time to make ships accelerate to great speeds. The ship's speed depends on the mass of the ship itself and how many engines are attached, but only Starborn ships are the ones capable […]
It is now officially summer. Yesterday, the solstice (Litha, as it’s known to some) brought us our longest day of the calendar year, and now we march on to ever darkening days. But right now, we’re just marching on into the weekend to spend that time o...
After a few rounds of updates, Starfield is slowly shifting into something quite different from what originally launched on September 4, 2023. And I’m not just talking about the cool new mods that are quick and easy to install now thanks to the Creatio...
Starfield on Xbox Series S is a surprisingly solid experience. However, Bethesda’s massive open-world space RPG is locked to 30 FPS on Xbox’s cheaper and less powerful console. But with some new fan-developed mods, Starfield can hit 60 or even 120 FPS ...
Fallout fans have been desperate for something new to play in the post-apocalyptic RPG franchise ever since the Amazon TV adaptation blew up earlier this year. Recently, however, director Todd Howard said Bethesda doesn’t want to “rush” a new single-pl...
Today, renowned YouTuber MrMattyPlays posted an hour-long video interview with Bethesda's Todd Howard, which touched on several topics, including the studio's latest game, Starfield. Howard provided an update on the game's player base. Last we heard, in December 2023, the game had registered 13 million players. Now, it's increased by another million. We now have three big franchises. Starfield has 14 million players, and the average playtime is still over 40 hours a player. It's just like a staggering amount of time in-game. The conversation then shifted to Shattered Space, the first Starfield DLC slated for release later this year. Todd […]
