We still think getting a live TV streaming service is a better deal than paying for cable — but the gulf between the two options is narrowing. Now that many of the major providers go for more than $80 per month, it’s not the amazing deal it once was. Still, live TV streaming plans have no contract, offer relatively simpler pricing and need no special equipment beyond a smart TV... Read more ›

It’s shaping up to be a shockingly good year for former arcade-dwelling beat-‘em-up fans. This month saw the arrival of the excellent Absolum, which infuses old-fashioned 2D combat in a cartoony high fantasy setting with roguelike elements to great effect. And now we also have a release date for Marvel Cosmic Invasion. Out December 1 on practically every platform, Marvel Cosmic Invasion lets you choose a team of two superheroes... Read more ›

Nintendo has announced a free update for Pikmin 4 that could remedy one of fans' biggest complaints about the game. (Yes, free. From Nintendo. We're shocked too, but we'll take it.) The update, which arrives in November, adds Fierce mode to make the game more challenging for those who want it. We don't know exactly what that will look like yet, but a higher difficulty level is a welcome addition... Read more ›

One of the greatest comeback stories in the history of video games just keeps writing itself new chapters. If you’ve checked in on the wildly ambitious space sim, No Man’s Sky, in the last few years then you’ll know just how much UK-based developer Hello Games has turned things around for a game that was once the subject of a false advertising investigation. And its latest update introduces fully explorable... Read more ›

Sonic Rumble has a new worldwide launch date: November 5. The game, which we've previously likened to Fall Guys, was supposed to come out last winter before its release was rescheduled for May 8 this year. By the end of April, however, Sega announced that its global launch had been postponed yet again because its developers needed more time to "build the kind of high-quality, long-lasting Sonic game [their] players...

If I had a dollar for every time a vehicle manufacturer launched a new in-car software experience designed to achieve the same levels of user experience as your average tablet or smartphone, I'd probably have about enough cash for a decent lunch at a middling restaurant. It's a common refrain, and yet after years of hearing that same story over and over, I still find myself firing up Android Auto... Read more ›

The iPad Pro is about to turn 10, so hopefully you’ll forgive me for pulling out this well-worn Apple truism one more time. No, it’s not Steve Jobs saying “if you see a stylus, they blew it” (a quote continually used out of context.) It’s the tale of how since day one, the iPad Pro’s hardware often felt far more powerful and capable than the software it runs. If you... Read more ›

These days, thanks to smartphones, almost everyone has a camera with them and that’s mostly a good thing. At any time, you can capture memories with family and friends, painterly sunsets and crazy spontaneous moments. The problem is most of us have endless bland photos in our camera rolls because we simply don’t know how to take great shots. When you’re on vacation or gathering with friends and family, a...

I came into this review thinking of Private Internet Access (PIA) as one of the better VPNs. It's in the Kape Technologies portfolio, along with the top-tier ExpressVPN and the generally reliable CyberGhost. It's one of the cheapest VPNs out there, its interfaces hold together and it boasts plenty of server locations. Sadly, I was either misremembering PIA, or it used to be better until someone at Kape fell asleep... Read more ›

If you're an Apple user, then the AirTag is the best Bluetooth... Read more ›
