The new controller was only just unveiled but Microsoft is wasting no time getting it in the hands of gamers, as it’s available to buy right now. You can get an Xbox Wireless Controller (Deep Pink) for $64 at the Microsoft Store (opens in new tab). If you’re in the market for a new Xbox Series X controller but the current lineup doesn’t appeal to you, then this could be what you’ve been waiting for....
The battery is hidden in the down tube, which doesn’t bulge as large as many other e-bikes in this class. It can pass as just another bike on the rack outside the grocery store, yet it hides a pedal-assist motor in the rear hub that provides plenty of power for zipping errands around town. It’s a fun bike to ride and it feels solidly built. If you’re after one of the best electric bikes that doesn’t look or feel like an e-bike, the Voya e+ 3 is a good choice....
I was a huge fan of Monster Hunter World on PS4, so I have been anticipating this title since it originally came out. Yes, I could have tried it last year. But after playing Monster Hunter World and a healthy dose of PS5 games, I couldn’t play a game that ran on the Switch’s weaker hardware. The wait was worth it, because Monster Hunter Rise truly comes to life on PC....
Variety (opens in new tab) just broke the news that an upcoming test conducted in Chile, Costa Rica and Peru will tell Netflix users that they can continue to share their accounts if just just pay a little more. How much more? Costa Ricans would spend an extra $2.99 USD per account (pricing is 2380 CLP in Chile and 7.9 PEN in Peru). This message is justified because of language in Netflix’s terms of service (opens in new tab) which states that your account “may not be shared with individuals beyond your household....
As the popularity of streaming picked up, other services started following suit. Until they didn’t. These days the big streaming networks have switched back to that weekly release schedule, famously with Disney Plus’ launch-day decision where we didn’t get all of its highest profile show The Mandalorian at once, paving the way for a return to, dare I say it, normalcy. Netflix has always maintained (opens in new tab) that it would not follow that charge....
As Deadline (opens in new tab) reports, Running with the Devil: The Wild World of John McAfee will follow the antivirus mogul after the 2012 murder of his neighbor in Belize. McAfee, who died last year, was a suspect in the murder, and went on the run to avoid the authorities — as well as, he claims, a Mexican cartel. As the below trailer makes clear, McAfee was convinced he’d be killed while in police custody, though his paranoia didn’t stop him bringing a film crew along to document the whole experience....
Then, Sonic the Hedgehog is going into the multiverse, while Harry & Meghan Vol. 2 concludes its docuseries. And then there’s a new drama series starring up-and-comer Noah Centineo (To All The Boys, Black Adam). If you never saw its first run, Murderville is a series where Arnett plays detective Terry Seattle, who is accompanied by celebrity guest stars. Oh, and Bateman and Rudolph will be improv’ing their way through, as they didn’t get the script....
Analysis: Streaming vs the Theater During the first years of the pandemic, HBO Max led the charge to bring movies home, as theaters were unavailable. This, famously, created a major debate. Even at Tom’s Guide, we’ve written on the subject, opining about how Nope is best in theaters and on the decline of the movie theater experience. Now that theaters are back open, studios are focused more on those releases than ever, with Warner Bros....
New Zealand played excellently to defeat hosts Australia in their first match of the T20 World Cup 2022. Devon Conway hit an explosive 92 off 58 balls to help his side reach a total of 200. The Black Caps then put in a strong bowling and fielding performance, including a stunning catch from Glenn Phillips, to claim their first win in Australia since 2011. Afghanistan succumbed to defeat against England in their tournament opener....
There are three different firmness options to choose between: plush (soft), luxury firm (medium-firm) and firm. We slept on the popular luxury firm version for two weeks to test how well the Nolah Evolution 15" stands up against the competition in our best mattress guide. The first thing we noticed when we sat on it was how cool this mattress in a box (opens in new tab) felt. The top layer is made with phase-changing ArcticTex fibers, which are designed to absorb and release heat, giving it that cool-to-the-touch feeling....
Read on and we’ll show you how to watch the match live from anywhere with a VPN (opens in new tab), potentially for FREE. Djokovic looked slightly rusty in his first-round win over South Korea’s Kwon Soon-woo, eventually winning 6-3, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4. Kwon is ranked 81 in the world, so today’s match should present a similar challenge for Djokovic; Thanasi Kokkinakis is ranked 79. The Serbian world no.3 has faced Australian Kokkinakis once before, but that was back in 2015 on the clay of Roland-Garros, so don’t expect it to offer much guidance as to how things will go here....
Current-generation GPUs may remain extremely hard to get hold of, but that apparently isn’t preventing Nvidia from progressing on the next generation of graphics cards. If the latest rumors prove to be true, however, the hefty initial outlay may not be the only cause for concern for frugal gamers. A handful of reliable GPU tipsters have been suggesting a total board power (TBP) of 600W for the RTX 4090 for some time — with one going as far as to suggest that a theoretical 4090 Ti could go as high as 800W....
The Shift is part of Saucony’s Endorphin line, which includes the Endorphin Pro — Saucony’s marathon shoe, with a carbon fiber plate, and Saucony’s PWRRun cushioning. (The Endorphin Pro is one of the best carbon fiber running shoes to wear on race day.) The Speed is the middle of the range shoe, designed for fast half-marathons with an S-shaped nylon plate. The Shift is the most affordable shoe in the range, designed to protect the legs over long training miles and cope with most marathon training sessions....
We rank the WB_Black SN850 as one of the best PS5 internal SSDs you can buy, and it’s been slotted into my own PS5 console for the last 18 months and I can personally verify that it works flawlessly. In fact, when running native next-gen games off the internal storage drive I’ve actually experienced slightly quicker loading times compared to playing them from the PS5’s stock hard drive. One of the best things about adding a new SSD to the PS5’s storage expansion slot is that it doesn’t replace the console’s pre-existing hard drive....
We follow lead character, Suja, as she falls pregnant and has to leave Korea. What effect does this have not just on her, but the next generation of her family? Minha Kim could be this series’ breakout star as Teenage Suja, while Yuna plays the young version, and Academy Award Winner Yuh-Jung Youn the older version of the same character. Other stars include Soji Arai as Mozasu, Jin Ha as Solomon and Lee Minho as Hansu....
Information comes from the official Xbox Wire (opens in new tab) blog, where marketing program manager Dan Hickey outlined the weekend promotion. The process is about as straightforward as it sounds. From Thursday, May 5 to Sunday, May 8, three Xbox games are free for Game Pass and Gold subscribers: Call of the Sea, Sid Meier’s Civilization VI and Overcooked! All You Can Eat. You can download and install the games through the Xbox storefront, and play them until 11:59 PM PT on Sunday....
Built to be a training partner to the Saucony Endorphin Pro 2 super shoe, the Endorphin Speed 2 is an excellent, responsive running shoe, designed for training miles, tempo sessions, and even race day itself if you’re the kind of runner who only wants to buy one shoe. Now is a fantastic time to buy, read on to find out more. The Saucony Endorphin Speed 2 is part of Saucony’s Endorphin collection, which features a racing shoe — the Endorphin Pro, a tempo shoe — the Endorphin Speed, and a recovery shoe — the Endorphin Shift....
I’ve heard enough stories to know paying attention to my surroundings isn’t optional. That’s why I usually skip headphones unless my workout will bring me to a dedicated running route in the park or by the waterfront, in which case I’ll stow my earbuds until I reach the secure destination away from most dangers. And even then, the best noise cancelling headphones are usually a no-go, unless they offer a solid transparency mode....
The Samsung S95B OLED TV doesn’t quite make our list of the best TVs you can buy, but it’s still got plenty going for it. Its overall superb picture quality is easily its strongest aspect. It’s one of the first models on the market to fuse OLED and quantum dot technologies, and the results are pretty impressive, although its imperfect blacks do slightly let it down. In our Samsung S95B OLED TV review, we said “The innovative Samsung S95B combines Samsung’s consumer electronics know-how with the best aspects of both OLED and quantum dot technology....
Although I’ve yet to get my hands on a pair of Samsung’s flagship earbuds for a full review, the consumer tech giant hasn’t provided clarification on what it means by the 24-bit Hi-Fi Sound claim, stating: “[24-bit audio] offers high-dynamic range helping you feel connected to the content you’re listening to with crystal-clear resolution.” On the face of it, this sounds like a significant audio advancement, but as I understand it, whether audio is handled at 16- or 24-bit is only part of the story....
