Hardware refreshes are nothing new for a gaming console, especially from Sony and PlayStation. Ever since the PS2, there’s been at least one hardware refresh midway through the console generation. The PS3 Slim, the PS4 Slim, and new to this past generation was the PS4 Pro. Obviously with the PS5 just releasing a month ago, Sony’s not even remotely close to manufacturing, announcing, or perhaps even planning a new hardware refresh for this new generation....

Activision Blizzard is currently under investigation following accusations of harassment, discrimination, and fostering a hostile work environment. You can read more about the investigation here. Microsoft recently rocked the internet when the CEO of Microsoft Gaming, Phil Spencer, announced that the company will acquire Activision Blizzard for an estimated $68.7 billion. While this news might seem like a boon for Activision (given the recent lawsuits and protests it has faced) some gamers are concerned Microsoft will no longer release Activision Blizzard titles on non-Xbox platforms, and could even turn Call of Duty and Warzone into two of the company’s biggest future exclusives....

It’s science fiction’s world on television and we’re all just living in it. The little geek genre that could has come to dominate the TV landscape with everything from sci-fi comedies like Netflix’s Russian Doll to sci-fi workplace satires like Apple TV+’s Severance. Science fiction has become so pervasive that many shows aim to figure out an angle in addition to the already out-there form. Rarely has a show been more successful in choosing an additional angle to present alongside sci-fi than Prime Video’s Outer Range....

Harry Potter: Wizards Unite will host its first Community Day a little later this month, but there’s already plenty of rare Foundables for players to head out and hunt down.

Not to be outdone by their biggest competitor, Microsoft earlier this week revealed which apps, features, and services will be available for the Xbox One at launch.

Considering the console launches with the peripheral, it’s no surprise that the Kinect’s full feature set will be available at launch....

What Does Cheezburger Mean? The word “cheezburger,” misspelled with a “z”, is based on the idea that cats, if they could write to humans, would have a primitive control of the English language, and would misspell most words.

Techopedia Explains Cheezburger The emergence of “lolspeak” and “cheezburger” can be traced to “I Can Haz Cheezburger,” a site set up in 2007....

Not only does he steal whatever scene he’s in, but he already feels like a potentially major fixture in the Marvel Cinematic Universe....

It’s a new era of video game collaborations, and big-name battle royales seem determined to court the K-Pop industry’s finest. Although two coincidences don’t necessarily make for a trend, it’s still remarkable that BTS chose to debut their new single’s choreography video in Fortnite’s Party Royale Mode, only for K-Pop girl group BlackPink to announce a collaboration with PUBG Mobile shortly after. BTS is a Korean boy group that has gained massive international acclaim, to the point where you could call them this generation’s Beatles and not be exaggerating in the slightest....
