HexGaming Phantom PlayStation 5 Controller Review
In a market full of premium controllers, the Phantom manages to come out on top.
The PlayStation 5 DualSense is arguably one of the best first-party controllers to ever exist. This base PS5 controller already features amazing haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, motion controls, a touch pad, and a tried-and-true design that fits comfortably in most everyone's hands. Sony essentially combined some of the best features of the previous-generation PlayStation controllers and then added...

Band Together in Terror: The Outlast Trials Review
The Outlast Trials proves that survival horror can be more fun with friends.
The Outlast Trials is a four-player PvE game taking place in the Cold War era. The game's opening moments and lore paint a gruesome and wicked scene that will be familiar to series veterans but disquieting to those new to the Outlast universe. Players work their way through a series of experiments, each of which plays out on various large maps like a police station, a courthouse, a carnival, and more. The g...

TikTok Ban Signed Into Law by President Biden
Owner ByteDance has 270 days to sell off TikTok.
On April 24, President Joe Biden signed a foreign aid package that also included a bill that could ban TikTok in the United States. This ban can only be averted if the China-based company that owns TikTok, ByteDance, sells off the popular social media app before the 270 day time limit is up.
This gives ByteDance until January 19, 2025 to sell TikTok. An additional 90 day extension could be offered by President Biden if...

Steam Client Update for July 27, 2022
Haven't had one of these bad boys in a while.
Remember when Steam was still in its infancy and every update was a relatively major news event? Those have largely gone by the wayside these days as Steam updates are a dime a dozen and outside of a new feature here or there, there really isn't much to write about when a new update lands.
Today's update is no different. Frankly, I'm just writing about this new update because I happened to see that it was just released, and... -

Roblox Removed Iconic 'Oof' Sound from Game
The one-second-long piece of audio has been a legal issue for years.
The famous "oof" sound that we all know and love(?) from Roblox was just removed from the game entirely due to an issue with licensing.
Even if you never stepped a single digital foot inside of Roblox, you have probably heard that "oof" sound somewhere and at some point in your life. It has been used in countless meme videos, as sound effects in various YouTube videos and Twitch streams,... -

Grand Theft Auto VI Details - Female Protagonist, Miami Setting, 2024 Release Window
A new report offers a lot of fresh details on what Rockstar is doing with the next GTA.

Since then, Rockstar only released one new title, Red Dead Redemption 2 in 2018, while continuing to update Grand Theft Auto V by way of a steady stream of new GTA Online content. That's about nine years without a new Grand Theft Auto title.
Rockstar Games seems to have been quietly working on Grand... -

In June, Naughty Dog and Sony announced that The Last of Us Part 1 would be coming to PC in addition to PlayStation 5. We were given a firm release date of September 2, 2022 for the PlayStation 5 release. Most fans probably expected the PC release to arrive months after the PlayStation 5 release, but that may not necessarily be the case.
Senior environmental texture artist at Naughty Dog, Jonathan Benainous, responded... -
