Last Half of Darkness is a point-and-click horror adventure game first released in 1989, and now has been faithfully recreated with new graphics, an improved story, and modern mechanics by the same solo developer that first made it. Bill Fisher of SoftLab Laboratories — and later William R. Fisher III Studios — first released Last Half of Darkness in 1989 on the DOS platform to somewhat middling reviews, but the series established a fan base and Fisher went on to create several more games in the franchise. Given the graphical quality of 1989, the original title isn’t quite as scary…

Table of Contents Table of Contents Pricing and availability Specs Performance Wait and see Nvidia made some stark claims with the announcement of its RTX 50-series GPUs. It promised double the performance with the best graphics card Nvidia has ever released, the RTX 5090, and it said outright that the more modest RTX 5070 could equal the performance of the last-generation king, the RTX 4090. That seems dubious, even with the hype surrounding the new hardware. We can’t officially confirm or deny such claims until the embargo lifts on reviews for these new cards, but for now, let’s consider how…

Apple’s new smart hub could look like a HomePod with a seven-inch screen attached to it, and a higher-end version of the same device could even have a robot arm that lets it track users around the room. In his latest Power On! newsletter, Mark Gurman lays out what fans can expect from the new device. It aims to improve on the capabilities of the existing HomePod and elevate Apple HomeKit to a higher level. Gurman said, “I still consider it Apple’s most significant release of the year because it’s the first step toward a bigger role in the smart…

In the aftermath of Luigi Mangione’s story going viral, Dave Franco’s phone blew up. The actor told The Hollywood Reporter that anyone who knew him said he looked like the now infamous young man, who is accused of killing United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson on the streets of New York City. “I’ve never received more texts in my life about anything,” Franco said. “Not just friends — anyone who has my phone number has reached out about it.” Franco, who was being interviewed alongside his wife Alison Brie, said that he had yet to receive any official officers to play the man,…

Smartwatches can save lives. It certainly did the trick for my colleague, Nirave Gondhia, who detailed his journey of having a heart attack at the age of 33, and how the Apple Watch helped him on a path of recovery, even with emergency needs. Unfortunately, not every adopter is using smartwatches the way they are intended to assist. As per a survey by the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center only a quarter of Americans who use a smartwatch for health tracking share the wearable data with their doctor. “If patients are monitoring their blood pressure at home and notice…

It’s no secret that Apple’s entry into the AR/VR segment didn’t quite stir the product revolution that the company may have expected. A cumbersome build married to a sky-high asking price for the Vision Pro headset were some of the key woes, but the company has not given up on its dreams. On the contrary, Apple might even expand into the wearable category beyond the domains of XR itself. According to Bloomberg, the company is working on multiple ideas for smart glasses, both with advanced AR optics and those without a sophisticated display unit. “Apple is already working on a…

When Nintendo revealed the Switch 2, there was a tinge of disappointment in some corners of the internet over the fact that the console wasn’t a major departure from the original Switch. It is still a hybrid console that you slide in and out of a dock to play games on the go or via your TV, only with prettier graphics, a bigger screen, and new Joy-cons. However, Nintendo still has a gimmick up its sleeve, only it isn’t as in-your-face as it was with something like the Wii’s motion controls. The Switch 2’s new Joy-cons aren’t just bigger and…
