iPhone 17 Pro Max Said to Be Thicker to Accommodate Larger Battery

Apple has increased the thickness of the upcoming iPhone 17 Pro Max compared to the current generation iPhone 16 Pro Max, claims the Chinese leaker known as Ice Universe. Apple is said to have increased the depth of the iPhone 17 Pro Max to 8.725mm, up from 8.25mm on the iPhone 16 Pro Max, which would be a 0.475mm difference in thickness. The increase "surely means a larger battery," according to the leaker. Apart from depth, the iPhone 17 Pro Max's frame reportedly remains unchanged, and is oth...

Goblin stealth gaming returns in Styx: Blades Of Greed, out in 2025 - here's the first trailer

Cyanide and Nacon have announced Styx: Blades Of Greed, the third in a trilogy of goblin stealth games known for puke-based mechanics and many a snarky note-to-self. I never completed the previous Styx: Master Of Shadows or Styx: Shards Of Darkness, and if I'm honest, I fear Cyanide's impish infiltrator is doomed to forever butt his smirking, warty head against the 6/10 glass ceiling, with Thief's Garrett flashing V-signs on the other side. Still, I have a certain respect for the series. There a...

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 Has Been Butchered For The Switch Remake

Pop shuvit up your... Our sheer elation when Activision announced Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 for Switch has sadly bailed in light of news that the fourth entry will be subject to some pretty seismic changes. In short, as confirmed by Kotaku (thanks, Push Square), Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 won't offer the original Career Mode, meaning you can no longer roam freely and take on challenges at your own pace. Instead, challenges will work in the same way as the previous three titles, giving you a 2-m...

With all those cities he’s built over the last few years in Tropico 6, I’d hate to think what El Presidente’s carbon footprint looks like. Clearly, the environmental guilt has got to him, because Tropico 6’s new expansion is all about embracing nature and making your cities greener. The Return to Nature DLC is the ninth to hit the strategy game, which shows no signs of slowing down.

The first private asteroid mission probe is probably lost in deep space

It was a swing and a miss for the first private attempt at an asteroid mission, but the company is still chalking it up as a win. California startup AstroForge launched a spacecraft dubbed Odin on February 26, but the team lost communication with it shortly after its launch on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket. "The chance of talking with Odin is minimal, as at this point, the accuracy of its position is becoming an issue," the company said in its extensive debrief of the mission.
