Samsung’s next earbuds might be tuned for fitness – and, if this early report is to be believed, called ‘Bean.’ That’s according to an alleged trademark request Samsung filed in Europe, which was spotted by LetsGoDigital and uploaded here . Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus… Plus? That said, they could borrow some design specs from the Galaxy Buds Plus – like the better battery life and dual-driver woofer/tweeter combo. The Gear IconX’s shorter 5-hour battery life didn’t impress us, but given the 11-ho

For years, notoriously bad PC ports have locked the framerate to 30 fps or introduced issues with an increase to 60 fps. PC gamers are used to these kinds of weird bugs, especially with console ports of old games. The most basic thing you have to understand is that game code can be written to measure time in fractions of a second or in “game ticks,” a more arbitrary measurement set by the developers. In the case of old Halo, and a lot of games, both measurements are used in different parts of th

Apple has done away with the 15-inch MacBook Pro in favor of the bigger MacBook Pro 16-inch, and now it seems likely Apple will do the same screen stretching for its smaller model by introducing a 14.1-inch MacBook Pro. The 14-inch MacBook Pro may still be waiting, though, as earlier rumors have suggested a revised 13-inch MacBook Pro is still on its way. That would be great news for MacBook Pro users, as the keyboard on the 16-inch MacBook Pro is the best we’ve experienced on the family of lapt

One recent example of this is the upcoming Fisker Ocean all-electric luxury sport-utility vehicle. Fisker recently announced that the solar roof is capable of generating about 1,000 extra miles per year, all without having to connect to any power source other than the sun. With the Ocean, the solar roof extends from the front all the way to the back (instead of only a small section for solar cells). My eyes caught a glimpse of the solar roof as well, which is optional on the Ocean (how much it a

It’s pretty rare to score an Alienware system for around the cost of parts (or less), though it happens on occasion. Dell is offering a 17 percent coupon code on its Alienware Aurora desktop, and part for part, it’s about equivalent to what you’d spend building your own. Coupon code EXTRA17 knocks the price down to $1,439.71. In short, now is the time to pounce if you’ve always wanted an Alienware PC, but didn’t want to pay a significant premium for one. Also bear in mind that you can customize

Although the Valve Index released over a year ago, the VR system attained a new lease on life when Half-Life: Alyx was announced as a virtual reality exclusive.

But sometimes the stars align and a perfect crossover comes into existence thanks to the ingenuity of players. Thus is the case with Chris “Snickelsox” Lock’s Dungeons and Dragons homebrew stat sheet for a chaotic good Kool-Aid Man. Even in a game with creatures as terrifying as the all-powerful, quadrupedal beast Tarrasque, the Kool-Aid Man looks like a force to be reckoned with. ❤️ #DnD #KoolAid #5E pic.twitter.com/JbRriYzDQs — Snickelsox (@snickelsox) March 3, 2020Lock’s Twitter feed is full

If you’d like to shoot some people this weekend but don’t want to actually commit murder, go to jail, or spend money, Ubisoft is offering an alternative in the form of a free weekend in its multinational people-shooting game Rainbow Six Siege. From March 5-8, the full game including all maps and modes will be free to play on all platforms. The Siege freebie will be available on Steam, Epic, and Uplay, and will be preloadable beginning today so you can jump into the action as soon as it starts. A

Unfortunate news today for Bloodborne fans who might have hoped to see a new title under the IP to come to the PS5 at launch. However, with Elden Ring being the main company’s focus, and following up on statements from FromSoftware that there is no planned Bloodborne sequel, it seems that those hopes have been quickly dashed. Additionally, the development studio has famously always tried to move forward with something new, which is what created Bloodborne in the first place as Miyazaki had attem

The Anniversary edition of Halo: Combat Evolved is now available on PC through Halo: The Master Chief Collection. Developer 343 Industries released a teaser for the Anniversary edition just yesterday, but today’s surprise Steam launch is still, well, a surprise. Like other remastered Halo games, the Anniversary edition lets you switch between traditional and remastered graphics. The Master Chief Collection will continue to roll out throughout the year. Halo 2, Halo 3 (and seemingly Halo 3: ODST)

Surviving the Aftermath is a city building sim set in the aftermath of a global catastrophe: Basically “SimCity meets nuclear armageddon,” except instead of a game over screen you’re given a shovel and some lumber.

What may prove to be the bigg

With Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 2 in full swing, dataminers are uncovering the next bunch of content we should get excited about. The latest Fortnite patch notes addressed a handful of bugs, and if these leaks are to be believed, there’s a bunch of new stuff coming our way in the near future. According to the datamine, the shotgun “fires slugs for medium-range effectiveness” and has a rather large magazine. But Hypex isn’t the only dataminer keeping the Fortnite leaks flowing.

You hold the left thumbstick in to crouch, and you can only crouch when you’re standing still or walking slowly. But when you’re moving with WASD there’s no analog walk, and thus crouching demands you come to a complete stop first. “On mouse and keyboard, it’s kind of all or nothing, you’re either moving or you’re not moving. “You do get more of the freedom to crouch as you’re moving regularly,” said associate producer (and former pro player) Sean Swidersky.

Halo: Combat Evolved is on PC. Developer 343 did a surprise launch today with no lead-up announcement, though there was a hint that Combat Evolved might be coming soon. This version of Halo: Combat Evolved has an unlocked framerate, FOV options, and supports high resolutions like 4K. At release the MCC version of Combat Evolved won’t have a server browser like the old PC version, or come with any mod tools to help modders along.

Bloodstained, Koji Igarashi’s Castlevania callback, launched last year after a successful Kickstarter, which included a stretch goal for a roguelike mode. According to a Kickstarter update from Igarashi, “the code that was created early in the game’s development is not currently compatible with this type of gameplay.” “I wish I was surprised by the cancellation of a prominent stretch goal, but I’m not,” writes one backer. “That’s pretty cool how the code for the game ‘isn’t compatible’ with a ro

Two years later, FSP said ‘Hold my beer’ and came up with the T-Wings CMT710, a hideous chassis with an intriguing upside—you can build two complete systems in this case. I owned and positively reviewed Lian Li’s PC-777B case when it came out, and hold firm to this day that pictures don’t do it justice. FSP expelled the traditional tower blueprint and built a “stylish symmetrical design for hardcore gamers.” And for cooling, each section can have its own 360mm radiator for users who want to go t
