When rapper Soulja Boy dropped his line of game emulator consoles, the internet arched a collective eyebrow. This, we knew, probably would not end well and lo, less than a month after launch, both the SouljaGame Handheld and SouljaGame console have been pulled from the rapper’s online store.
When it comes to all things that concern gaming peripherals and accessories, there is one particular name that should always be taken into consideration: Razer. This leading lifestyle brand for gamers has just introduced an all new method of enjoying your Xbox One console via the introduction of the Razer Turret, a wireless keyboard and mouse combo that has been specially designed for Microsoft’s console.
This exclusive collaboration has one main intention: to deliver the full experience of a keyboard and mouse, alongside lighting and game integration to the Xbox One. Specially constructed for reliable gaming from the comfort of one’s favorite couch, the Razer Turret for Xbox One delivers a fast and stable 2.4 GHz wireless connection through a single dongle for both the mouse and keyboard, alongside a battery life that has been rated to up to 40 hours on a single charge. This should be more than adequate for most marathon gaming sessions or even up to two days’ worth of intensive gaming in a row sandwiched by a few hours of sleep.
Boasting of Razer’s signature Chroma technology working alongside Xbox Dynamic Lighting, console gamers will now be able to access the largest ecosystem of lighting with up to 16.8-million color options and lighting effects for their keyboard and mouse. This opens the door for a truly personalized experience, while raising the immersive level on various supported titles such as “X-Morph-Defense” and “Vermintide 2”, among others.
The keyboard will boast of Razer’s gaming grade mechanical switches that have been specially engineered for durability and reliability, sporting a lifespan of up to 80-million keystrokes. Chances are the Xbox One would have long gone obsolete before the Razer Turret is in need of a replacement. There is also a dedicated Xbox key that will instantly pull up the Xbox One dashboard for seamless navigation. As for the mouse, it has been modelled after the popular Razer Mamba Wireless gaming mouse, boasting of a high-performance 5G advanced optical sensor and Razer Mechanical Mouse Switches.
Expect the Razer Turret for Xbox One to be also fully compatible with the PC (Windows 10) platform, letting you enjoy both PC and console gaming with a single $249.99 purchase.

lg g7The LG G7 was released earlier this year, although unlike some other 2018 smartphones, it has yet to receive its Android 9.0 Pie update. However the good news is that LG G7 owners might not have to wait much longer because according to LG Korea (via GSMArena), it seems that the handset is set to receive its Android Pie update in the first quarter of 2019.
There were no specific dates mentioned, which means that it could be anywhere between January to March, plus we imagine that it could probably end up being pushed out region by region, and might be further delayed if you bought it from a carrier which will require additional carrier approval before the update is released, but either way it is scheduled for early next year so there’s that timeframe we can look forward to.
Like we said, there have been other handsets, such as those from LG’s competitors, who have released the update already, but better late than never, we suppose. That being said, LG is said to be working on their next flagship smartphone codenamed “Alpha”, so it possible that maybe their focus is on the handset which could explain the somewhat late release of Android Pie.
Either way we’ll keep our eyes peeled for more information on when the update will be released, so check back with us next year for the details.

Two of the best all-time Nintendo games are Super Mario Bros. and Mega Man. So I can think of no better Nintendo hero than one who combines Mario and Mega Man himself.
This fun mashup comes courtesy of CG artist Yago De Amorim, who says the inspiration came from a 2D illustration by artist Jake Parker. Yago created the image using Maya, Zbrush, Vray, and Photoshop, and the end result is one of the greatest video game characters ever. Can you imagine blasting through the Mushroom Kingdom with an buster gun? And Bowser’s flying hammers won’t even leave a mark when you’re wearing that helmet.
Great job, Yago and Jake! I hope Nintendo someday makes a Mario Mega Man game.

While the thought of a machine that can squirt out endless ropes of molten glass is a bit frightening, the folks at MIT have just about perfected the process. In a paper published in 3D Printing and Additive Manufacturing, researchers Chikara Inamura, Michael Stern, Daniel Lizardo, Peter Houk, and Neri Oxman describe a system for 3D printing glass that offers far more control over the hot material and the final product.
Their system, called G3DP2, “is a new AM platform for molten glass that combines digitally integrated three-zone thermal control system with four-axis motion control system, introducing industrial-scale production capabilities with enhanced production rate and reliability while ensuring product accuracy and repeatability, all previously unattainable for glass.”
The system uses a closed, heated box that holds the melted glass and another thermally controlled box where it prints the object. A moveable plate drops the object lower and lower as it is being printed and the print head moves above it. The system is interesting because it actually produces clear glass structures that can be used for decoration or building. The researchers take special care to control the glass extrusion system to ensure that it cools down and crystallizes without injecting impurities or structural problems.
“In the future, combining the advantages of this AM technology with the multitude of unique material properties of glass such as transparency, strength, and chemical stability, we may start to see new archetypes of multifunctional building blocks,” wrote the creators.
Amazon’s bringing the year to a close with a Gold Box sale on several popular Anker products, spanning a variety of categories. The PowerPort Cube power strip was probably the biggest new hit with our readers this year, but who couldn’t use a new Qi pad, a 5-port charging hub, or a USB-C hub for their laptop? For the…

Organizers said they would work harder to attract participants who reflect the community’s diversity.
Well, we did it. In spite of everything, we made it through 2018, a year that felt eternal. Even the last week of 2018 was trying it with that “super blood wolf moon” bologna. There were definitely some fantastic comics and great movies, though—including Bird Box, our review of which you definitely shouldn’t miss.
