Logitech G Astro A50 X Gaming Headset Review: A Multi-Platform Maestro

While Mario has become the face of Nintendo, and perhaps video games as a whole, it’s important to remember that it was in a Donkey Kong game that he really became an icon. Since then, our beloved ape has bounced between being friend and foe of the plumber, as well as broken free to star in his own series of games with an expanded cast of friends and enemies. It’s been a long time since we’ve been graced with one of his banana-fueled adventures, so we decided this was as good a time as any to look back at Dinkey Kong’s legacy and decide which of his many solo efforts stand as the best.

There’s a lot to love about Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, and its open world setting is surely high on that list. On top of being massive and incredibly varied across its many different regions, the entire map is also entirely seamless, which means you’re never hit with a loading screen when traveling from one area to the next (unless, of course, you’re fast traveling). Interestingly, however, according to producer Yoshinori Kitase, the game’s open world design wouldn’t have been quite so impressive if it hadn’t been developed as a platform-exclusive title.

Corsair just launched its latest gaming mouse, the M75 Wireless. It’s ambidextrous in the truest sense, features swappable side buttons, high-speed wireless with a 2,000Hz polling rate, and an ergonomic shape tailored for speed. It’s a heavier take on the M75 Air Wireless which launched earlier this year, a gaming mouse for gamers not sold on the ultralight craze. At $129.99, it’s expensive but its performance is hard to argue with.

Publisher DreadXP and The Mortuary Assistant developer DarkStone Digital (Brian Clarke), in collaboration with Paramount Game Studios, have announced Paranormal Activity: Found Footage. It will launch in 2026 across multiple platforms.

The Cooler Master MK770 is the first keyboard we’ve reviewed in some time from the brand and it seems that it has something to prove. Like Razer, Corsair, and ASUS, the MK770 is Cooler Master’s custom-inspired gaming keyboard, complete with sound dampening silicone, gasket mounting, and pre-lubing. It easily offers the best out-of-the-box typing experience of any Cooler Master keyboard to date, and is competitively priced at only $119.99, but misses the mark in a number of ways.

Revealed as part of the latest Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase, Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection is bringing both Star Wars: Battlefront and Star Wars: Battlefront 2 to modern platforms later this year.

Alongside revealing that Hi-Fi Rush and Pentiment would be getting multi-platform releases, Microsoft has also revealed that two more of its first-party titles will be coming to other platforms—Grounded and Sea of Thieves. Grounded is coming to PS4, PS5 and Nintendo Switch on April 16, while Sea of Thieves is coming to PS5 on April 30.

Last week, Microsoft confirmed it would bring more first-party titles to other platforms. There was plenty of speculation as to what those games would be, but after various announcements today, the roster has been set.

This past week, Blizzard revealed another round of Hero Talent Trees in a Sneak Peek at the upcoming War Within system. Our Marksmanship Hunter guide writer, TheAzortharion, offers an early review of the Dark Ranger Hunter Hero Talents that offers more Aimed Shots but lacks the additional support to fire them.

The best gaming headset needs to be affordable, comfortable, sound sharp, and have a microphone that won't make your voice chat companions wince. Our top picks manage to do it all with some extra features on top.

Founded in 2020, Mavix introduced the world to its line of ergonomic gaming chairs. These chairs blend the best of gaming and ergonomic worlds, delivering a chair that is quite unique in the current market. I've spent the last few weeks with the Mavix M9, its flagship model, and have been impressed. It's not perfect, but it is a chair that's more comfortable than your average ergonomic chair and more supportive than your average gaming chair, Which makes it a compelling choice when you don't want to sacrifice good looks for good support.

Xbox Cloud Gaming should start allowing users to stream their own games sometime in 2024, according to Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer. Streaming enthusiasts have been waiting for this feature to be added to the Xbox service since its earliest days, back when it was still called xCloud.
