  • These solutions aren’t always effective at cutting down motion sickness, however, and can even exacerbate the problem by increasing lag, which leads to motion blur and sickness. LG Display, in collaboration with Sogang University, is utilizing AI to banish motion sickness in VR, reports Business Korea.

  • It turns out a briefly present always-on display mode was buried in the settings of the new phone, as a Redditor discovered, but it was removed in a day one update.

  • It’s both brilliant and flawed, a technical masterpiece on a near five-year-old console where morality, duty and loyalty are all tested in equal measure. Even running on a vanilla PS4, this is one of the best-looking games on Sony’s hardware we’ve seen thus far.
