I adored Blue Prince, an indie puzzle game that was one of 2025’s biggest surprises. I played it on the Steam Deck, and thanks to a TV dock I have, I was able to cast it to the television in my living room to play alongside my partner. It was a great workaround at the time, because all I really wanted to do was play the game on my Switch, but it wasn’t available on the platform yet. However, today’s Indie World Showcase turned that around; Blue Prince is coming to Switch 2 later today. The indie game tasks players with…
Apple has made a meaningful change to its MacBook Pro lineup with the launch of the new M5 Pro and M5 Max models. While most of the spotlight is understandably on the performance gains delivered by the more powerful chips, the company has also updated the base storage across the range. The higher-end M5 Pro and M5 Max configurations now ship with more internal storage, with the M5 Pro models starting at 1TB and the M5 Max models beginning at 2TB. More notably, the company has quietly extended that same shift to the standard M5 model, raising its base storage…
Nirvanna The Band The Show The Movie is not a video game movie. It’s not based on a video game property, or even features video games in its plot in a primary way. But from its opening moments, it’s clear that its creators and its director, Matt Johnson, are video game fans, and specifically fans of 16-bit RPGs. Johnson and his creative partner, Jay McCarrol, are also the creators of the viral Wii Shop Update Day video where they run down an impressive list of classic video game titles set to the tune of the Wii’s Shop Channel music. We spoke…
Microsoft has revealed its list of March 2026 titles for Xbox Game Pass, and this one feels unusually stacked. Amongst other titles, the lineup includes Cyberpunk 2077, EA Sports F1 25, and Hollow Knight: Silksong, three highly acclaimed games across wildly different genres. This isn’t a quiet content refresh. It’s a momentum play. Game Pass has always leaned on variety, but March’s opening wave signals something sharper: recognisable, conversation-driving titles landing at once. For subscribers, that translates into immediate installs instead of “maybe later” downloads. Three big wins, three different audiences Starting with Cyberpunk 2077, what was once one of…

A 77-inch OLED under $1,500 is the kind of TV deal that doesn’t need much explanation. It’s just a legitimately big discount on a TV people actually want. The LG 77-inch B5 Series OLED (2025) is down to $1,499.99, which is $1,500 off its $2,999.99 list price. That’s a major cut on a current-model OLED, not some random old stock set that only looks good because the sticker dropped. And at this size, OLED really starts to feel worth it. You’re not just getting a nicer panel. You’re getting the kind of screen that can anchor a room, whether you…
Developer Wildlight Entertainment has announced that its free-to-play multiplayer raid game Highguard will be shutting down permanently. The game launched less than two months ago, on January 26.Since its reveal as the final world premiere at The Game Awards 2025 garnered a mixed reaction from viewers, Highguard has had an uphill battle winning over players put off by its style of game and general live-service fatigue. Highguard launched with an initially strong player base, but those numbers rapidly dwindled. Despite announcing a year-long content roadmap and releasing substantial post-launch updates, Wildlight would layoff the majority of its employees only a…
A new phishing campaign is using a fake Google security check to steal passwords and other sensitive data from unsuspecting users. Researchers at Malwarebytes warn that the scam impersonates Google’s account protection system, tricking victims into installing a malicious web app. Once installed, the tool quietly collects credentials, one-time passcodes, and other personal information. The scam begins with a fake Google account security page designed to look authentic. Victims are asked to complete a security verification step to protect their account. Instead of protecting their account, the process installs a rogue Progressive Web App (PWA), often through a domain designed…
