It’s hard to think of a time when superhero stories felt new. Over the past two decades, superhero movies and shows have taken over the entire entertainment industry. Somehow, comic book characters are cool now, a safe topic for water cooler chatter or something people might casually talk about at parties. It may sound surprising, but for many years this wasn’t the case. Superheroes were considered a kind of niche genre apart from heavyweights like Superman, Batman, and Spider-Man.
Multiplayer crime sandbox and massive money sink GTA Online is getting its first new heist mission in a little while next week, with balaclavas set to be donned on July 14th. The target of this shady op's is the art gallery dubbed the Kortz Center, which you might remember as the setting for that one Merryweather-battling mission with Michael and Trevor in GTA 5's main story.
Some wild invites have just appeared on Amazon UK for some highly sought-after Pokémon TCG goodies. You can sign up to buy Chaos Rising and Phantasmal Flames Elite Trainer Boxes, as well as the glimmering Scarlet & Violet—Prismatic Evolutions Booster Bundle.
The Snapdragon X2 is clearly a really good CPU, but until someone can staple a better GPU to it, or slide it into a handheld where it could really shine, it only makes a mediocre gaming laptop.

If you've spent any time on Steam from your Steam Deck, there's a good chance you recognise the 'Great on Deck' tag, signifying that games work, well, great on Deck. Well, Steam has just published its Great on Frame collection, and you get three guesses what that could be for.
KTC has managed to deliver an outstanding monitor for competitive shooters here at a very reasonable price. It's not the best for casual gaming, but if games like Counter-Strike or Valorant are your go-to, you'll struggle to hit this sweet spot refresh rate in a nice panel for a better price.
The first hotfix since Arc Raiders' 1.36 update has rocked up, and while it may be small it does tackle some important issues, namely a new duplication exploit which has popped up recently and saw mountains of explosives spawn even faster than the throwables glitch.

Aw shucks. That's a bummer. I'm not angry about it, though. Surely this had to happen, just like the execs said it did. I'm paraphrasing quite facetiously, but that is the basic gist of id Software co-founder John Carmack's reaction to the studio cutting 136 workers as part of Microsoft's mass layoffs earlier this week, a devastating blow that leaves the Doom developers facing an uncertain future.
