NCSoft’s making a new MMO shooter that, snazzy graphics aside, feels like it’s already 15 years old—and that might just match your freak

by

NCSoft’s Cinder City (technically CINDER CITY, but our style guide forbids such a loud use of caps) has been announced, and I feel like I’ve either been transported back in time, or just watched a clueless time traveller step out of a portal.

I’m genuinely excited to check out Beyerdynamic’s first 2.4 GHz wireless gaming headsets, but they’ll only be available in Canada and the EU for now

by

The Beyerdynamic MMX 330 Pro is our favourite wireless audiophile gaming headset, and I should know, I’m the one who reviewed it.
