Review: RIG 900 MAX HX Wireless Headset
My new daily driver.
We are once again delving into the world of gaming headsets, this time with a spotlight shining brightly on Nacon's RIG 900 MAX HX. Priced at $249.99 (USD), the 900 MAX HX aims to be a more premium and feature-filled offering than the RIG 600 PRO HS we recently reviewed. Featuring the same dual-wireless connectivity as the 600 PROs, the 900 MAX HX sets itself apart thanks to Dolby Personalized audio support with Dolby Atmos 3D, plus a charging base station, a more...

Review: Starfield
A safe, if not soulless, journey through the cosmos.
Bethesda Game Studios releases are safe. They are familiar. You know almost exactly what to expect when a major new release from them rolls around. They instill a feeling of "I know this game won't be groundbreaking, but I know I'll have fun." Yes, there are some obvious differences, but the heart of each Bethesda game is almost universally the same. The recent release of Starfield is no different. To put it bluntly: Starfield is Fall...

Sony Blocks Fortnite Cross-Play Between PS4 and Switch Players
Sony continues to baffle and anger fans with their archaic multiplayer stances. The latest is that players on the newly released Nintendo Switch version of Fortnite will not be allowed to play with those on the PlayStation 4 version. Switch owners can, however, play with Xbox One, PC, Mac, and mobile players. Even worse is the fact that players are now finding out that they cannot link their Epic accounts to the Switch version of the game if it's already been tied to their PSN account...

Valve Overhauls the Steam Chat System
For the first time in years, Valve has provided a drastic overhaul to the Friends and Chat system within Steam. It has an all-new look with some new functionality such as embedding things like images, Giphy links, Twitter, Twitch, and even YouTube. You can even use something like /giphy to insert a random Giphy image, because that seems safe?
It's got improvements to group chats, improvements to voice chat, it has a two week long chat history you can keep, it has a new "persona" invisible mode, a new way to rename friends, a new way to trade, a new way to add friends, and more!
You can try this new functionality out in two different ways. You can either opt into the current Steam client beta by going to Steam > Settings > Account and opting into the currently available beta OR you can try it out via your web browser.... -

Destiny 2: Forsaken to Introduce Gambit Multiplayer Activity
A new multiplayer "activity" for Destiny 2 coming with the Forsaken expansion is said to deliver an experience with an "upwards trajectory of fun." This is of course if you believe the remarks made by design lead Lars Bakken. He's talking about the new Gambit multiplayer activity which was revealed earlier today.
Boiled down, Gambit is a competitive, team-based speed run, hooked around four core steps: fight, collect, bank, invade (all four of which can be happening simultaneously).... -

Thankfully, Elijah Wood once again came out on stage this year to finally provide some additional details on what Transference actually is. Hint: It's a psychological thriller.

While Battlefield V is going the route of ditching the Premium Pass nonsense, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 is going full steam ahead with another Season Pass. As you may already expect, it includes more multiplayer maps and Zombies stuff. Well, you can't very well add in any single player DLC when the game doesn't have any single player to begin with. Cue the tapping head meme image here. Let's take a look at the planned DLC after we take a look at the various editions that are being...

by Shawn ZipayGet that Premium Edition and play three days early!
Looks like the latest growing trend with game releases is to offer a more expensive Premium or Gold or whatever edition that grants you access to a game a few days ahead of its official release.
Starfield did it with their $99.99 (USD) Premium Edition. Today, Payday 3 is doing an "Early Access" release with their Silver and Gold editions. Diablo 4 did the same thing earlier in the year, as did Madden NFL 24,...I don't mind. If people want to spend more to play early, let them!33.33%1I'm indifferent to the whole idea.33.33%1I think it's kind of dumb that people get to play earlier. Spending more shouldn't offer a "head start" on other paying customers.33.33%1Other (describe below)0%0-
