Odyssey News, Tips, Tricks & Ideas

I’ve been waiting to watch Junk Head for over a decade.

Samsung is making the most of Gamescom 2023, with the announcement of two new high-end gaming monitors that could potentially up your gaming prowess and get you to the top of the leader board — if you don’t mind their somewhat goofy size and shape. The Odyssey Neo G9 57-inch and the Odyssey Ark 55-inch are both on display at the huge European computer and video game event. I’m not there in person, so while we may have to wait a few days to get a proper look and feel for the massive monitors, we do at least have some information about what they look like, and what could separate these new Odyssey gaming monitors from the competition.  

The Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 57-inch and upgraded Samsung Odyssey Ark 55-inch (model G97NC) are the latest additions to the Samsung Odyssey gaming monitor series. The former of which is the first dual UHD monitor to hit the market, with an astoundingly high resolution that’s sure to provide unparalleled immersion and test any graphics card.

Samsung has just unveiled its brand new Odyssey Neo G9 57" & Odyssey ARK 55" flagship gaming displays with up to Dual UHD & 240Hz panels.

Your choice of gaming monitor could make or break your Starfield PC experience when it lands on Steam, but high spec screens often come with astronomical price tags. Thankfully, decent display discounts pop up from time to time, and I’ve just come across a great 49-inch Samsung Odyssey curved ultrawide panel with $900 off. If you’re looking to invest in an immersive portable and traverse the stars using an immersive premium portal, this might be your chance.

Now here’s a game I didn’t know I needed. Space colony management sims aren’t exactly a rare breed, even after you cross them with survival elements. However, I never realized that the one thing they were missing was the SDF-1.

Comedy platformer Orbo's Odyssey is a game about being locked in your boss's office. Here are some things I might do if I were locked in my boss's office (sorry Katharine): approve expense claims, sift their browser history for blackmail material and oh, who am I kidding, what I'd really do is perch on the desk, quiet as a churchmouse, waiting to be let out. Orbo's boss keeps an... atypical office, however. It harbours product portals that take you to alternate worlds, hewn from the same seam of weirdness as Psychonauts.

Samsung is stepping g into a new era of ultrawide gaming displays with its cutting-edge Odyssey Neo G9, which is set to launch on August 23.

Publisher Flyhigh Works and Banchou Tactics developer Secret Character have announced Neko Odyssey, a cat photography adventure game coming to PC via Steam in 2024.

Let's Build a Zoo, the cheerful tycoon game with a thing for DNA splicing, is almost ready to swim with the fishes; its previously announced Aquarium Odyssey DLC finally has a release date and will be making a splash on PC, Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch next Thursday, 17th August.

Next month is absolutely packed with games big and small, but hopefully your hard drive has space for another fantastic-looking one because Jumplight Odyssey is zooming into early access on August 21st. It’s a mix between starship management and roguelike planet hopping from developer League Of Geeks, the studio behind strategy gem Armello. Check out its pretty ‘70s anime-inspired trailer below.
