I shouldn’t say this out loud because it feels like I’m jinxing things, but I think Half-Life 3 might actually be getting closer. Combined with some of the hints, leaks, and rumors from the past couple of months, Valve, generally, seems a little more interested in Half-Life these days. First there was the big 25th anniversary celebration for the original game and now, investigating the Steam backend, it looks like Half-Life 2 might be getting the similar birthday treatment. Four years since Half-Life: Alyx and two decades since the last mainline outing for Gordon Freeman, G-Man, and co., we’re certainly - still - very ready for Half-Life 3. But some kind of relaunch of the second game wouldn’t go amiss, either.

While the Grand Theft Auto 6 release date feels like it's miles off, Bully, one of Rockstar's most underrated titles, is the perfect way to wile that time away.  The 2006 action-adventure game sees you playing as a rebellious boy named Jimmy Hopkins as he attends Bullworth Academy and it feels just like the GTA games of its era, except instead of driving cars and using guns, Jimmy rides a bike and uses a slingshot.

By the time you've finished Factorio, the world is a very different place.

The minerals, trains, and myriad factories make up a painting even Jackson Pollock would envy, but you leave it all behind in the end. The spaceship you've been working towards finally sets off. Four years later, the new Factorio Space Age DLC opens the lid on what happened next. Continue reading The Factorio Space Age DLC is basically a complete sequel, and it’s out now

The Halo Select smart lock is Kwikset’s first to support Matter. It works over Thread and can also be used as a Wi-Fi lock. | Image: Kwikset The Halo Select is Kwikset’s first new smart lock in five years, and its new features, updated design, and creative approach to connectivity could make the long wait worthwhile. The Halo Select is a ground up redesign of the company’s Halo line and its first lock to support Matter. It works with the new standard over the low-power, mesh networking protocol Thread and, interestingly, has the option of skipping Matter and using Wi-Fi. “You have Wi-Fi, which is what most customers want today, but it’s also future-proofed with Matter and Thread.” It’s a clever move by Kwikset. Smart locks have limited features in Matter today, but the standard offers greater interoperability and Thread promises better battery life (a key feature in a... Continue reading…
