If you’re looking to bring your Xbox Series S on the road, consider checking out the xScreen Come from Sports betting site VPbet. This unique product clips onto your console and provides you with a portable screen, letting you game on the go without having to lug a big monitor with you–and the only cable you’ll need to pack is the original Xbox power cord.

In a recent development, FanDuel president Christian Genetski alerted D.C. City Council chairman Phil Mendelson through a letter that FanDuel may terminate its collaboration with the city concerning its sports betting platform. The communication, sent earlier this month, highlighted that FanDuel would “invoke its termination right” if the sports betting market in the District were to be expanded by lawmakers.

This letter from Genetski was dispatched before lawmakers considered the 2025 budget, which includes provisions to widen the sports betting market in the District. The budget has since received approval from the D.C. Council, as reported by Covers.

The newly approved budget proposes the introduction of a Class C license. This license would permit sportsbooks…

Yesterday reportedly saw the Legislative Assembly of Macau formally approve the first reading of the enclave’s comprehensive draft gaming bill and subsequently send the proposed legislation to a sub-committee for closed-door discussions on potential alterations or additions.

According to a report from Inside Asian Gaming, the former Portuguese enclave’s Economy and Finance Secretary, Lei Wai Nong, introduced the outline measure, which is officially entitled Amendment to Law Number 16/2001, to the 33-member Legislative Assembly with the required deliberations now expected to begin after the Chinese New Year holidays.

AMD has announced its new Ryzen 7045 mobile CPU family. Codenamed Dragon Range, it’s AMD’s new flagship chip for high performance laptops extending all the way to 16 cores.

Essentially a repackaged version of the Ryzen 7000-series already seen on the desktop, it comes complete with Zen 4 architecture and chiplet engineering, with an I/O die and up to two CPU core dies.

There’s also the same teensy little 2CU RDNA 2 graphics core in the I/O die, just like the desktop Ryzen 7000. That graphics is not, of course, intended for gaming. For that, AMD has RDNA 3, also known as the new Radeon RX 7000 mobile chips.

Back to mobile CPUs, this new family of chips tops out at 5.4GHz in the Ryzen 9 7945HX, which is the full 16-core monster. AMD is pitching the 7045 Series as both th…

This particular Team Group SSD is now sold out, but the good news is the 1TB version of the same drive is still on sale for $58.99. There are also a few other 2TB NVMe drives on sale for around the same price as the Team Group model. This Silicon Power 2TB drive ($98.99) is actually selling for a dollar less than the Team Group, and the Crucial P3 Plus 2TB drive is going for $104.99 as well.

When it comes to the world of SSDs, the ones that grab all the headlines tend to be the fastest or largest ones. This deal from Team Group is neither of those things but it’s still a great deal, for one simple reason.

At a cent under $100 for 2 TB of NVMe storage, you’re paying less than five cents for every gigabyte. I know it might seem like I’m laboring the poin…

Remember how everyone thought Raiden was stupid and dorky when Metal Gear Solid 2 came out, then ten years later the consensus was all of a sudden that MGS2 was a postmodern masterpiece? Well now we know what the endgame of that “Kojima Cycle” might look like: Future space aliens agreeing that you should absolutely give Death Stranding another shot.

Kojima’s meditation on the potential afterlife of a piece of art comes from a fan Q&A organized by Anan News (by way of GamesRadar). In response to a question about the mindset a successful game developer needs to have, Kojima replied that it’s “to make something that you’re satisfied with. Or rather, you can’t create something that you are not satisfied with.

“For starters, the way art is evaluated changes with the times. …
