I love movies, and I love games. So you'd think I'd love games that are based on movie licenses. The only problem is that, historically, movie tie-in games have been terrible.

I don't buy new TVs or monitors often, but when I do I like to put them through their paces like anyone else. For me, the best way to do this is watching a few of my favorite movies that pose one or another visual challenge.

DALL-E has been replaced by a new image-generation engine under GPT-4o, and boy is it a big jump. There seems to be little this new image generation tech can't do, but what about adding color to old black and white photos?

As humans, so many things in life can remind us of how frail our flesh is. An injury, an accident, or just the humbling experience of trying to lift something heavy. So why not give yourself a little robotic boost?

The Minecraft movie is blowing up records and is currently the second highest-grossing video game movie of all time, and it might even reach the top if things keep rolling the way they are.

Apple TV+ is making some of the best television in the history of the medium, but rarely if ever releases any of its movies or shows on Blu-ray or DVD.

The official reveal of Nintendo Switch 2 details has come as a flurry, and all the information at once can be pretty hard to handle. Now that the dust has settled, there are a few things that are worth knowing about this console that were either glossed over in the main video, or relegated to supplementary material.

From the first announcement of the Switch 2, it's been a pretty universal assumption that the Nintendo Switch 2 would be backwards compatible with games from the Switch. Similar to the DS and 3DS, or Gamecube and Wii.

There are numerous ways to control most games, and, of course, you should pick the type of control scheme that works the best for you. However, I think a lot of people overlook the humble D-pad as an option—always opting for an analog stick.

With the reveal that Switch 2 games will cost $80-$90, and speculation that the base version of Grand Theft Auto 6 might be $100, there's a predictable (and understandable) uproar from gamers who want to keep enjoying their hobby during tough economic times.

Nintendo has never had an achievement system in the vein of PlayStation trophies or Xbox achievements, and it's continuing this hallowed tradition with the Switch 2. Good!

If it's not crypto- or AI-driven shortages, it's tariffs. The price of hardware goes up, while the supply of that hardware goes down. So, honestly, it's not a great time for hardware enthusiasts to be in the market for new gear.

Remakes are always a topic of heated debate in the gaming community. Sometimes they result in games that garner critical acclaim, but I'd say that most remakes we've seen so far simply end up showing us how good the original was, and that we'd rather be playing that.

Everyone knows optical disc formats like CD and DVD, but history is littered with other attempts to make shiny round discs that hold some sort of recording. With very mixed results!

The gulf in quality between a Blu-ray disc and even the best mainstream streaming services is vast. It's not just something video nerds notice! Which is why I always advocate buying your favorite shows and movies on disc, but for most people, convenience seems to trump all.

With the official reveal of the Nintendo Switch 2, we now know that the launch model comes with an LCD and not an OLED as the last Switch model did. This seems to have upset quite a few prospective Switch buyers, but is it really a downgrade?

The Centauri Carbon is one of those rare market-disrupting products that makes you re-evaluate every other product it competes with. The Carbon would be an excellent product at twice the price, which makes it almost unbelievable that Elegoo is offering so much, for so little.

Today is April Fools' day, and that means you've probably seen a bunch of gaming-related April Fools' announcements that range from just dumb to very annoying. The same thing happens every year, sadly.

When you hear "biology" you probably think something like "nature" or "natural", but humankind has been interfering with biology for thousands of years, and now in the 21st century our tools are more powerful than ever.
