I lose again in Hades II. Damn. I wake up in the same dim corner of the Crossroads, staring at the same painting. Melinoë as a baby, held by her mother Persephone. Her brother Zagreus beside them. Hades smiling down, the whole family together with the serenity of a dream you wake up forgetting. The game gives me one prompt: “Brood.” When I press it, Melinoë scoffs, “You don’t remember them, besides this painting and your dreams. But still you fight for them…” Another scripted moment no one will remember, lost to the churn of repetition. Brood, indeed. That’s pretty…
Samsung has been using the same 5,000 mAh battery across its Galaxy flagships for so long that I had basically given up hoping for something better. If anyone was thinking of going for a Galaxy S25 Ultra or similar, I’d let them know that they’d be stuck with a battery from half a decade ago.While no news about Samsung increasing the battery capacity for the Galaxy S26 phones has surfaced, other exciting reports paint a very promising picture. Samsung, it seems, is finally waking up and improving its batteries.Whether it’s because Apple recently overtook it with the iPhone 17 Pro,…
While Netflix seemingly led the way for other streaming networks to create compelling original programming, Hulu actually beat them all to the punch. In 2011, a year before Netflix’s Lilyhammer and two years before the arrival of House of Cards, the burgeoning streamer premiered The Morning After, a pop-culture-focused news show that ran for 800 episodes over three years.Hulu has continued to make TV history in the years since, most notably in 2017 when it became the first streamer to win an Emmy Award for Outstanding Drama Series with The Handmaid’s Tale (which recently dropped its long-awaited final season). In…
Lego has a long history of geek and gaming crossovers. We’ve seen recent sets for Star Wars and Star Trek, while past collaborations include everything from Super Mario Bros. to Minecraft. The latest blocky tie-in is a classic: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, as teased on social network X by Nintendo of America with the caption “Do you realize who you’re dealing with?”The short video clip recreates a scene from the game, with a minifig of Link armed with his Hylian shield and Master Sword beside a tiny floating Navi fairy. (Presumably Lego Navi will not interrupt you…
Astronomers have detected the first-ever “radio signal” coming from the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, right as it passed the halfway mark on its oneway trip through the solar system. And while this may seem like ostensible proof of the comet’s supposed alien origins — it’s actually the complete opposite.3I/ATLAS is the third-known interstellar object (ISO) to pass through our cosmic neighborhood. It was first spotted in early July, speeding toward the sun at more than 130,000 mph (210,000 km/h), although observations dating back to May have since been uncovered. Most researchers agree that it is a comet, potentially the oldest of…
You probably heard the big news about Grand Theft Auto 6 last week: Rockstar’s open-world crime drama has been delayed until November of next year. However, that was not the only major GTA 6-related bomb that dropped. The studio also fired a few dozen workers for “gross misconduct,” including what Rockstar claims was the public leaking of company secrets. Now, the affected developers are organizing with in-person protests, and preparing for a possible legal battle if Rockstar doesn’t reinstate their jobs. All of these developers were part of a growing attempt to unionize within the company’s UK branch that had…
This year, after multiple generations of using almost the exact same design, Apple decided to redesign the iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max. Understandably, not everyone was a fan of the new design, which is why the company is reportedly changing things up for the iPhone 18 Pro next year.iPhone 18 Pro to minimize rear color differenceAccording to a new leak (translated source), Apple is trying to minimize the contrast between the shade of the aluminum body and the glass panel on the rear.Currently, the iPhone 17 Pro phones use a glass panel on the rear to…
Lumines Arise, the latest chapter in the popular puzzle game franchise, is out today. It’s available for PlayStation 5, including on PlayStation VR2, and on Steam, with support for both VR and Steam Deck.I’m a bit of a Tetris fiend. If there’s any game with falling and spinning geometric pieces, be they tetrominoes or pills or puyos, I am here for it. My personal favorite iteration of the formula is Tetris Effect, because good golly is that ever a beautiful game. Normally if I saw reviews bestowing adjectives like “ecstatic,” “euphoric” and “breath-taking” on a video game, I’d roll my…
Thirty-eight years later, The Running Man is back on our screens, playing to a world that seems to have caught up with the original’s idiocy. This new one features a considerably less bulky, but no less watchable star in Glen Powell, playing runner Ben Richards. Fired from various jobs for insubordination, and tending to a sick toddler, he’s press-ganged into joining America’s favorite kill-or-be-killed game show, after a producer identifies him as “quantifiably the angriest man to ever audition.”The show’s premise has been tweaked a bit, too. Instead of navigating a series of video-game-like levels for the length of a…
