The Galaxy S24 series is going official in a matter of days, and we are very excited about what Samsung has to offer. Over the past couple of months, all the rumors have slowly turned into leaks, and it is only a matter of time before we see these things materializing. A new leak reveals how Samsung is capitalizing on AI but also not forgetting its roots, so you are definitely going to get a great overall experience in terms of performance.

Squishmallows are the must-have toy in the plush world and have been for a while, and they don't have a rival. That might be about to change. Famous for letting its customers create and customize their own soft toys, Build-A-Bear has launched a new line of plushes similar to Squishmallows, but with their own Build-A-Bear twist. They're called Skoosherz, and the first five are available right now for less in preparation for Nation Hug Day later this month.

Nvidia really cannot keep a secret, can it? Yes, in a surprise to absolutely no-one, CES brings us the new GeForce RTX 40-series Super cards. The Ada Lovelace architecture refresh has been rumoured for a long while now, and here it is, either offering a little more performance for either the same sticker price, or in one particular case a fairly significant decrease.

Last month, the MultiVersus rumour mill span itself into a frenzy over some stickers plastered in Belgian McDonalds, which appeared early—like some kind of hallucination you experience when you're severely dehydrated, only the water in this case is a platform fighter most people had a good time with that randomly shut down for months.

Amazon Prime subscribers can claim and keep four PC games this month as part of their subscription, including the indie adventure Endling — Extinction is Forever.

Samsung's Galaxy A series has been selling really well for the longest time and for all the right reasons. I still remember the day I got the Galaxy A52s for my wife. It was only a few days after I received my Galaxy S22 Ultra's pre-order, and for a few minutes, I was confused about how similar these devices really are. With 2024 here, Samsung is working on the Galaxy A55, and today, we have some fresh renders showing the odd design choice the company is going for.

There are some solid additions for Xbox Game Pass subscribers to enjoy as we kick off 2024. With the headliners of the month being Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and Resident Evil 2.

It’s a new year, and Xbox is kicking off January with its first batch of new Game Pass titles for 2024. This month is headlined by the additions of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and the remake of Resident Evil 2. As always, when new games enter a few must leave, and one big departure is Grand Theft Auto V in just a couple of days. Check out the full list below and check out the links to our reviews for applicable titles.

Elon Musk had removed the headlines from article links from X (formerly Twitter) last year to make the post look more appealing. However, later in November, Musk promised that the headlines would be back on the platform in the upcoming updates. Now, X has finally introduced an update in which users can see headlines on the article links on the post. But, as per reports, the headlines do not appear to look similar to the previous version as long headlines may not show the full text. And yes, you may not like it much.

After some pretty solid additions in November, the titles coming to Xbox Game Pass for December look to continue the momentum. Remnant: From the Ashes and Remnant 2 are available on both PC and Xbox starting today while the others will be spread out over the first couple weeks of December. Both Remnant games are a ton of fun, and I’d definitely recommend checking out if you have a Game Pass subscription.

Amazon has revealed the next wave of ‘free’ titles that will be available to Prime members.

Elon Musk has announced that news articles shared on X (formerly Twitter) will once again feature headlines, instead of just the image in the URL card. This move has reversed his controversial decision from October 2023, when he removed headlines from news articles shared on the platform to reduce the height of the preview window and improve the aesthetics. At the time, many users complained that it would be difficult to contextualize the content of a URL with just the header image.

The retweet and like buttons have long been a fixture on Twitter/X. But it looks like Elon Musk wants to hide them, forcing users to go through an additional tap to access them.

X (formerly Twitter) has added another change to the iOS app version of its platform which might frustrate many users. The app has stopped showing headlines on the articles and other pages shared via URL to the platform in some regions. This means when a user shares a URL, it will only show the lead image of the web page and the domain name. As a result, users who follow Twitter accounts of news outlets and individuals who share the same will now face a tough time understanding what the content is about. Reports reveal that this change has directly come from company owner Elon Musk.

Season 7 of Overwatch 2 is incoming on October 10, and like every new Overwatch season, comes with a huge content drop for players to enjoy. Fitting for Halloween, Overwatch 2 has a spooky “Rise of Darkness” theme, a gothic and twisted theme accompanied by a returning PvE mode, new skins (including a collaboration with Diablo 4 — hello, Lilith Moira), and a brand new map named Samoa which seems to be the origin point for a highly teased and potentially playable character.

Sony has officially confirmed the selection of monthly free games available for PlayStation Plus subscribers in October 2023, and one of 2022’s goriest horror titles, The Callisto Protocol, is included, just in time for Halloween.

Humble Bundle has announced the games available in its monthly Humble Choice subscription for September.

Starfield is the obvious big “get” for Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass program this month, and it’ll be arriving on September 6 on the service for cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X/S. Before that though you’ll be treated to Gris – a lovely little puzzle platformer that’s a fantastic rainy-day weekend game. After that, we’re getting Solar Ash on September 14, as well as Lies of P on September 19. Microsoft also reminds folks that Age of Empires IV: Anniversary Edition recently hit the service.

Twitter is set to implement a major change to the way news articles are presented on the platform.

It appears that the ‘block' is not the only Twitter (now X) feature whose future is in jeopardy. After expressing his views on how blocking users is pointless and suggesting he may take away this feature, company owner Elon Musk is targetting the headlines on link previews, as per reports. At present, a large number of news organizations share their articles on X. While sharing the articles, the platform generates a link preview that contains the image, URL, headline, and a short summary. But soon, the headline might be gone to reduce the height of the preview window.

A new mobile version of Samba de Amigo is the headline addition to Apple Arcade this month.
