Outlast, oh how I miss you. I vividly remember traversing the upstairs of Leadville's local mental institution and screaming as that dead body dropped from the ceiling - you know the one. Red Barrels' horror epic is one of my all-time favorites, so imagine my face when I realized that its 2023 multiplayer spinoff, The Outlast Trials, was going cheap on Steam, complete with a brand new update.

It looks great, has programmable back buttons and customizable triggers, and can connect through wireless dongle, Bluetooth, and USB-C. So far, so good. It’s also got a whacking great price tag. But the main thing that drew me in is the novel OLED screen. I’m often skeptical of products that put flashy features front and center in marketing. Most of us want solid performance above anything else, and any cherries ...

Let’s start off with a bang: the Corsair HS80 Max Wireless is the best-sounding gaming headset I’ve ever used. Although it’s clearly aimed at a gamer audience, with a priority on in-game sounds like footsteps and gunshots, it’s now my go-to listening gear for music and podcasts, too.
