A few nights ago, I was playing rental store simulator Retro Rewind when I got distracted by the final 20 minutes of The Terminator. As I watched the movie in my store on a tiny CRT screen in the corner, I forgot I was supposed to be running the place. Thankfully, the digital employee I’d hired a few days before checked customers out. And if you, too, want to watch old movies in a digital recreation of a ’90s-era rental shop, well, I can help you out. I love Retro Rewind, a recently released video rental store simulator out now on Steam. As someone who grew up loving trips to our local Blockbuster, Retro Rewind is a very cozy game for me. Something about being surrounded by shelves filled with movies and garish carpet covered in stars and cartoon cameras makes me happy. And like any good...

Sitting down to talk with Milwaukee’s Maximiano about their new album Rokeby came in the middle of a busy day for both Max and I - they let me know they had just booked the most epic string of tour dates that lasts pretty much all the way through 2026 and the exhaustion was palpable. Max wisely had us both take a pre-interview moment to be still with his meditation phone app, taking in some silence and breath to recharge and after, away we went - I was very eager to chat after listening to the full album the day before, enamored with its honest beauty and sonic shades of Sufjan Stevens.

Nvidia DLSS has been around since the RTX 2080 dropped back in 2018, but while it started as a way to use machine learning to upscale games, it's grown to be so much more than that.Now, 8 years after the Tensor Core that powers DLSS first debuted in Nvidia's Volta GPU architecture, DLSS will upscale your games, generate entirely new frames, and, when DLSS 5 comes out later this year, will even re-draw each frame in your game. Some of these features are more divisive than others, but it's hard to argue that DLSS isn't one of the most important GPU software suites in a while, and is a major part of why Nvidia graphics cards are so good. DLSS UpscalingDLSS ostensibly stands for “Deep Learning Super Sampling,” and that’s exactly what it did at the beginning. The whole idea was to render the ga...

Read More If you’ve been hunting for a pocket-friendly gaming laptop, we just might have the option for you, as we stumbled across the ASUS V16 gaming laptop with a decent price cut. Its asking price was $1,299.99 after the reduction, it’ll cost you $1,199.99, which is a good cost for an RTX 5060 and Intel Core 7 240H-powered machine.
