Rare for me, this year, I’ve played many of the new games we’ve picked. Brag.

It’s not quite 2026 yet and the release calendar is already getting shuffled around. IO Interactive just confirmed its upcoming James Bond game won’t release as previously scheduled. Instead, 007: First Light will get a few more months in the oven as it snags Grand Theft Auto 6‘s old release date. Originally set to arrive on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch 2, and PC on March 27, 2026, the stealth action game will now launch on May 27, 2026.

As the exploration project manager for the Training Systems Office at Johnson, Grace Lauderdale leads the team that develops and operates the Orion Mission…
In 2026, we will see the beginning of precision medical forecasting. Just as there have been remarkable advances in weather forecasting with the use of large language models, so will there be for determining an individual’s risk of the major age-related diseases (cancer, cardiovascular, and neurodegenerative). These diseases share common threads, such as a long incubation phase before any symptoms are manifest, usually two decades or more. They also have the same biologic underpinnings of immunosenescence and inflammaging, terms that characterize an immune system that has lost some of its functionality and protective power, and the accompanying heightened inflammation.The science…
Over the past two years, the Nex Playground has carved out a niche for itself with kids and parents alike. It’s a small box that sits in front of your TV and uses a camera, along with computer vision AI processing, to track your movement for interactive games. Think of it like a simplified version of Microsoft’s Kinect (RIP), with a bit of the local multiplayer we see from the original Wii. In this bonus episode, we chat with David Lee, Nex’s CEO and co-founder, about how he went from building a basketball tracking app to one of the most…
Early Starlink adopters are getting a small but welcome surprise from SpaceX. Customers who signed up during Starlink’s early rollout in 2020 are now being offered a free router upgrade, as the company prepares to wind down software support for its original hardware. SpaceX has begun notifying users who still rely on the first-generation Starlink router (UTR-201), which shipped with the earliest round dish kits before the transition to flat-dish terminals and the Gen 2 router in 2021. According to the company, software updates for the Gen 1 router will be discontinued in the near future as part of broader…
The PvP nature of multiplayer extraction shooter Arc Raiders has been contentious since the game’s launch. There are many who see the ability to kill and be killed by other players are vital for the game’s tension and enjoyment. There are others who argue it’s antithetical to the conventions of a game in which a scant, brave few are trying to bring back resources to those living underground. Either way, Arc Raiders players have reached a fascinating and fragile understanding in which most people, most of the time, don’t kill. So when a retired pro gamer shows up and just…
During the first half of 2025, the number of CyberTipline reports OpenAI sent was roughly the same as the amount of content OpenAI sent the reports about—75,027 compared to 74,559. In the first half of 2024, it sent 947 CyberTipline reports about 3,252 pieces of content. Both the number of reports and pieces of content the reports saw a marked increase between the two time periods. Content, in this context, could mean multiple things. OpenAI has said that it reports all instances of CSAM, including uploads and requests, to NCMEC. Besides its ChatGPT app, which allows users to upload files—including…
NASA’s launch and mission teams, along with the Artemis II crew, completed a key test Dec. 20, a countdown demonstration test, ahead of the Artemis II flight around the Moon early next year. The astronauts, supported by launch and flight control teams, dressed in their launch and entry suits, boarded their spacecraft on top of its towering rocket at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida to validate their launch date timeline. Winding the clock down to a point just before liftoff, the rehearsal enabled NASA teams to practice the exact steps teams will take as they move toward launch…
