Earlier this month, GameStop disclosed that it achieved the highest profit in the company’s history during the first quarter of its latest fiscal year.

According to Kotaku, new GameStop Pro members will no longer be able to earn Pro Points starting on July 15. Current Pro members are only getting a temporary reprieve until August 15. On that date, members will stop accruing Pro Points. Prior to these changes, GameStop Pro members could earn roughly 2% of their…

The budget smartphone market may be heading in an unexpected (or expected?) direction this year. According to a recent post from a reliable industry insider, several sub-brands of major smartphone makers are preparing to launch new devices in the sub-1,000 yuan (around $140) segment. The surprising part is that many of these phones will scale back hardware instead of improving it. Samsung never retired the waterdrop notch in the Galaxy A0X series. In Image: Galaxy A07 5G The report claims that the upcoming budget phones will continue to use 1080p LCD panels and bring back the waterdrop notch. The entry-level…

Splatoon’s single-player modes have always harbored some interesting ideas, but they’ve all either felt like drawn-out tutorials or been relegated to brief paid DLCs. That’s why Splatoon Raiders, the series’ first single-player spin-off, is a big deal—Nintendo has a chance to finally give players the full-length, fleshed-out mission we’ve been waiting for. Previous trailers have taught us that the player (after selecting a hairstyle from possibly the coolest list of options in a Splatoon game yet) will take on the role of a scrappy little mechanic who has to fend off salmonids. Big Man, Shiver, and Frye are returning, and…

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s internal announcement on Friday about a “large” companywide AI hackathon next month quickly sparked frustration and disbelief among employees.In internal messages seen by WIRED, some workers wrote that added responsibilities in the wake of recent mass layoffs at the tech giant had left them with little time to join such ancillary activities. Others said they felt discouraged from participating because of what they viewed as low morale and declining trust in management across the company.“I’m literally preoccupied with keeping the lights on for my team,” one employee wrote on Friday. “I have no incentive to participate,…

Usually when people hear the term “spin-off,” they think of some kind of supplementary material that you don’t necessarily need to experience to get the full experience of the primary course. That doesn’t apply to Kingdom Hearts, however, as just about every game in the series, whether it’s a numbered entry following Sora, Donald, and Goofy’s Disney-world-hopping adventures or not, is basically required reading. Kingdom Hearts IV seems to be carrying on that tradition, as the latest trailer teases the presence of several characters who originated in a game that a lot of fans probably haven’t played. The problem is,…

“While several organizations successfully blocked the activity or remediated the vulnerabilities, others experienced compromise, resulting in stolen data being published on the ShinyHunters DLS,” Mandiant said. (DLS is short for data leak site.) An analysis of a bash script left in the staging environment shows the attackers performed reconnaissance on compromised organizations, including mapping the PeopleSoft configurations, viewing process scheduler, and WebLogic server XML configurations. Eventually, the threat actors established an outbound SSH connection to 176.120.22.24, the IP address hosting ShinyHunters’ DLS. The stolen data was first compressed using the zstd tool. The DLS claimed to have recovered 48GB of…

Power banks are one of the most common tech accessories in modern tech, but Anker’s founder and CEO believes their time may eventually run out. According to a report from China, Anker founder and CEO, Meng Yang, recently said in an interview that power banks are unlikely to grow into a product category worth hundreds of billions of yuan. In fact, he suggested that they could even “die in a few years.” Yang compared power banks to older consumer electronics products such as MP3 players, cassette players, and CD players. He argued that many gadgets have a relatively short life…

God of War is about to do something it hasn’t done before: center someone other than Kratos. Before we head into the Everywhen as Faye with God of War Laufey, we thought we’d take a look back at over 20 years of god-slaying and navigating Kratos’ dysfunctional family tree by ranking all the previous games from worst to best. Don’t yell at us if your fave is low on the list. Simply swear vengeance upon us and take out a pantheon of gods on the way. God of War: Sons of Sparta Mechanically, the 2D, sidescrolling Sons of Sparta maybe…
