With Saros, Housemarque makes a case for doing next-gen games differently

It is generally frowned upon to care too much about appearances. We have a lot of little aphorisms discouraging this – books and their covers, beauty being skin deep, style over substance, that sort of thing. Vanity is a risk.

The DualSense controller was one of Sony’s main selling points for the PS5.

Saros is pure action nirvana

The alien world of Saros feels like it has been touched by King Midas. The sky is golden after another impossibly frequent solar eclipse; rocks, specifically those of the precious resource Lucenite, radiate a shimmering amber.

A YouTuber channeled his distaste for the PS5’s design into slick console covers

The PlayStation 5’s curvy design is divisive. The Verge’s Andrew Webster called it a “robotic clam” in his 2020 review, which is actually kind of endearing. Personally, I kind of got over hating it sometime during the past almost-six years of its existence. Small form factor PC enthusiast Devyn Johnston is someone who did not […]
