[ad_1] The game is generally free for Valve Index headset owners, although that device is basically out of stock everywhere — you’ll be waiting a while for it if you put an order in now. Of course, $899 for the Cosmos Elite is a hefty sum to part with for the sake of a free […]

‘Call of Duty: Warzone’ adds a solo mode
[ad_1] It’s a welcome addition if you’re either averse to teammates or just want to improve your skills without the pressure of supporting other players. At the same time, it could also be important to keeping Warzone relevant. The free-to-play mode has been popular so far, but it has fierce competition from the likes of […]
Apple accidentally listed four new iPad Pro models on its website
[ad_1] MacRumors Notably, two of the models, A2228 and A2229, match recent filings the company made with the Eurasian Economic Commission.

Samsung shuts down its PC-to-mobile game streaming on March 27th
[ad_1] There may be a simple explanation. Samsung has already revealed that it’s teaming with Microsoft on a game streaming experience that should debut later in 2020. It wouldn’t be surprising if Samsung saw that as more viable and decided to shut down PlayGalaxy Link to avoid duplicating efforts. Samsung’s service already faced stiff odds. […]
AMD’s efficient Ryzen 9 CPUs target Intel’s gaming laptop crown
[ad_1] The latest H-series chips go a bit beyond what we’ve seen with AMD’s 8-core 4800U mobile chips when it comes to overclocking, with clock speeds topping out at 4.4 Ghz.

Google details what you need to play Stadia games in 4K on the web
[ad_1] However, you might notice what’s not present: any mention of Mac support. Much like YouTube in Safari, Apple’s resistance to VP9 over patent issues (it prefers royalty-free formats like AV1) makes official 4K support unlikely. Take heart, though. As 9to5Google observed, the unofficial Stadia+ extension for Chrome can force 4K on Macs if you’re […]
Windows 10’s built-in Linux kernel will be available to everyone soon
[ad_1] WSL2’s focus isn’t so much on basic functionality (there’s been an emulator for a while) as it is performance. It should load and run faster, with reduced memory consumption to free up your RAM for other tasks. This prioritization isn’t completely surprising. Now that Microsoft is less dependent on Windows sales and more on […]
‘Call of Duty: Warzone’ gets 15 million players in four days
[ad_1] There’s little doubt that this growth will slow over time, just as it did for Apex. It’s mainly a matter of when that happens, and whether or not the sustainable audience will be enough to eclipse rivals. That’s a tougher call. It’s unlikely that Warzone will achieve Fortnite‘s level of cultural relevance, but a […]
