    Smartphones vs Games Consoles: The Fight Begins

    There’s this consistent sense that games played on a smartphone or tablet are not as legitimate as those played on consoles or PCs.

  • Rumor: New Leak Reveals Microsoft's New Xbox Controller for Accessibility

    Rumor: New Leak Reveals Microsoft's New Xbox Controller for Accessibility

    According to a leaked image obtained by Windows Central, Microsoft is about ready to reveal their new Xbox controller for accessibility.
