Apple Macs and gaming have long been odd bedfellows. Compatibility issues and different hardware designs has often made gaming on these proprietary devices a bit tricky. Thankfully, most of these problems are set to live in the past, and gaming on Mac machines is becoming more commonplace. They're still rather walled off by Apple's ecosystem, and often Apple's pricing, but if rumours are true the new Mac mini could be...
One of the best collabs I've ever seen is finally releasing in regions other than Asia. That's right, those freaking cool Gengar Kraken Kitty V2 headsets from Razer are finally releasing in more markets, including the United States, Latin America, Europe, New Zealand, and thankfully for this Pokemon nut, Australia.Razer's latest global Pokemon release really let me down. The designs looked more like a kids toy than a set of...

Apart from a wonderfully curvaceous 30th anniversary RTX 5090, the product that I saw get probably the most attention at Asus ROG's event earlier was the ROG Swift OLED PG27AQWP-W. Asus is calling this the "fastest OLED monitor in the market", and for good reason.We've seen plenty of fast monitors over the past few months, but I've not seen anything come close to this for OLED. It's 540 Hz at...
OLED monitors are an envy of mine. That's why it comes naturally for me to sit behind my IPS screen and point out some of the still-remaining flaws of the tech, namely burn-in and low brightness.

Though it doesn't hold up particularly well, Star Wars: Dark Forces was a pretty big deal back in 1996. Outlaws, on the other hand, wasn't: it was LucasArts' second attempt at a first-person shooter using its own Jedi Engine, and few people I talk to about '90s FPS games ever seem to remember it.
