Apple today added the 12-inch MacBook (2017), iPad (6th generation), and BeatsX headphones to the obsolete products list on its website. Apple considers a product to be obsolete once seven years have passed since it last distributed the product for sale, including to resellers. Apple Stores and Apple Authorized Service Providers are instructed to discontinue hardware service for obsolete products and generally cannot order parts for these products as a result. However, Apple says MacBooks may re...

"We [could have] hit that schedule, but it won’t be the game we want to make."

We need it. Now. Nintendo has released a new overview trailer for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on Switch 2, give us perhaps our best look yet at the remake's gameplay – yes, even more than the Direct announcement. There's lots to peruse, including the new Hall of Fallen Foes feature, which is essentially a museum of sorts where you can view statues of enemies you've defeated on your travels. We also get another glimpse at the Ocarina features, including the ability to hum the tune in rea...

Nintendo's remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for Switch 2 is sharp, streamlined, and plays better than ever.

Link is getting a lot more than just a visual glow up for the new Switch 2 version.

So high... Upon accepting Nintendo of Europe's invitation to spend two hours with the Ocarina of Time remake, my expectations were so astronomically high that it felt almost unfair. Over time, we all learn to temper expectations, to sidestep disappointment and maybe even inject some pleasant surprise into our lives, but it's difficult to do that with something this formative.

I honestly can't tell you how many times I've completed The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, let alone how many hours I've spent in its bucolic version of Hyrule. Though, when I told my Mum about the upcoming remake she said, 'Oh the one with the music,' in a tone I've decided to interpret as delight. I think that says a lot about how much of a fixture this game was in my life, in our household.

It looks like the owl known Kaepora Gaebora - part-tutorial, part-tip giver - will be far less talkative in the Nintendo Switch 2 remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

Back in 2024, we heard about the formation of Summer Eternal: a new studio composed of Disco Elysium writer and world-builder, Argo Tuulik, and other veteran ZA/UM staff such as Dora Klind&zcaroni&cacute, Anastasia Ivanova, and Michael Oswell. Aleksandar Gavrilovi&cacute, secretary of the Croatian Game Development Alliance, and Lenval Brown, Disco Elysium's narrator, are also part of the crew.

Today marks the 15th anniversary of the iPhone 4S launch, introducing Siri as a built-in feature of the iPhone for the first time.

It initially launched in the United States, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, and the United Kingdom, retaining the iPhone 4's glass and stainless steel design while introducing substantial internal improvements. The device's defining addition was Siri, which allowed users to ma...

Max Payne 3 is a bit of a strange project. Unlike its two predecessors, the game wasn't developed by original creator Remedy Entertainment, rather it was the product of Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption studio Rockstar Games.

Galaxy Watch owners can now get Sleep Coaching faster.

Future Rockstar games won't take as long to make as GTA 6 has, the studio leadership currently behind the series have asserted, saying they're "confident" work that's gone into this latest game will allow them to build "more sideways than upwards" going forwards. That's despite Red Dead Redemption 2 seemingly having been viewed in a similar light when Rockstar opted to put everyone on getting over the line rather than developing GTA 6 concurrently.

Nothing's sister company CMF announced some playful bluetooth speakers that can be paired together and even work with Auracast.

Rockstar Games says the technology established during the creation of GTA 6 will allow it to develop its next creations at a faster rate.

AI and toilet paper: the joke writes itself, doesn't it?

Hall effect sticks, haptics and extra bumpers... for how much?

Valve have officially discontinued the Valve Index VR kit, launching a 20%-off sale on its headset and controllers to get rid of any lingering stock. This was arguably an inevitable end, given the newer, more multitalented Steam Frame launched last month, with the Frame's memory-shortage-induced price hike failing to discourage enough orders to the extent that its waiting list now stretches into 2027. It's also, truth be told, not really an effective discount – buying the Index headset, both con...

You can already set up your pre-order now, before the pre-orders open on Friday (October 16).

I (don't) want to hold your hand. Of all the discourse to hit the gaming industry in the past month, the conversation around AAA game design has been one of the most interesting. Insomniac’s Wolverine has been the final straw for a lot of gamers, turning the public tide against claustrophobically linear games that spoon-feed progression, whether that be through yellow paint or stink trails. Rogue Factor's Hell Is Us slots perfectly into this discourse, a game whose design is antithetical to Wolv...

A department where just a little bit of creativity doesn't go amiss.
