There's a lot to be said for the simple things in life. Bread and butter. A cold beer on a sunny afternoon. My brain on a Wednesday. Alienware seems to agree, as its latest mouse is not what you'd call jam packed in the features department. In fact, pulling it from its packaging, it almost seems simple to a fault.
I'm a big fan of Ridley Scott's Alien, a 1979 sci-fi classic that pits a crew of space miners against the now-famous xenomorph, a gigantic beastie stalking the hallways of the good ship Nostromo. I mention this for two reasons: One, it's a good excuse to link Alienware to one of my favourite films of a similar name, and two, because the late-70's futuristic aesthetic of that film cemented a much-copied standard in sci-fi design.
ASRock Phantom PG27Q15R2A | 27-inch | 165 Hz | 1440p | VA | FreeSync Premium | $239.99$153.77 at Newegg (save $86.22 after rebate) ASRock's gaming monitors are always so darned cheap—we love them for that. This 1440p panel offers resolution and a rapid refresh rate for a potent PC gaming combo, though the built-in Wi-Fi antenna helps it stand out from the crowd. That's hardly essential, but could come in useful for some.
Final Fantasy 14: Dawntrail's story is a bit of a mixed bag—I'm overall positive on it myself, ranking it just a half-step above Stormblood, and for all my critiques about the overall quality of its dialogue and its cutscene direction, I'm having a good time. Particularly with the sidequests, which have broken up a sometimes-plodding Main Scenario Quest (MSQ) nicely.
World of Warcraft: The War Within won't be kicking off until August 26—but some of its marquee features, including Skyriding and Warbands, are going to be arriving early as per anannouncement post by Blizzard on the game's official website.
A year after putting on an Olympic esports event that didn't include any actual esports games, the International Olympic Committee has joined up with the National Olympic Committee of Saudi Arabia to do it for real in the first-ever Olympic Esports Games, set to be held in 2025.
Poor Malenia, Blade of Miquella, Elden Ring's training dummy for testing some of the most ridiculous builds. If she isn't getting bullied by a naked man wearing only a jar, she's getting flies thrown at her until she can't take it anymore and gives up her Great Rune. Now, thanks to two players who realized Shadow of the Erdtree's new hand-to-hand weapon type won't even let her retaliate, her status as the hardest bosses in the game has been called into question.
We're certainly no strangers to the Machiavellian schemes of telecom companies in the US, where thanks to the restoration of net neutrality, we've only just recently been able to dodge the nightmare scenario of ISPs being legally empowered to throttle their competitors' traffic. That makes it all the more impressive when companies elsewhere in the world upstage our own constant advancements in corporate skulduggery—companies like KT, a South Korean ISP recently accused of inflicting malware on 600,000 of its own customers.
