Logitech Unveils A Bunch Of G-Series Gaming Headsets
Posted in: Uncategorized
If you’re in the market for a new set of gaming headphones, then Logitech might have something for you. This is because the company has recently taken the wraps off four brand new gaming headsets part of its G-series lineup, so there definitely should be something there that would appeal to you.
There are four different models to choose from which includes the Logitech G935 7.1 LIGHTSYNC Wireless, the G635 7.1 LIGHTSYNC, the G432 7.1 Surround, and the G332 Stereo. Their names are pretty much an indication of some of the features that you can expect, such as wireless connectivity, surround sound, 7.1 sound, stereo sound, and so on.
For example the G935 will feature the use of Logitech’s Pro-G 50mm audio driver and Lightsync technology. It also boasts a 12 hour battery life, enhanced 6mm microphone technology, and on-ear volume controls. The G635 on the other hand is more or less the wired version. It does not come cheap though at $170, but if you don’t mind the wired version, you can save yourself $30 as it will be priced at $140.
If you’d rather not spend over $100 on a gaming headset, that’s where the G432 and G332 come in, where they are priced at $80 and $60 respectively. The former will feature 50mm drivers, DTS Headphone:X 2.0 surround sound, and rotating leatherette ear cups. The G332 on the other hand will focus on stereo sound, but will feature a similar build. The headsets should be available this month so check out Logitech’s website or their retail partners for the details.

London Gets a LEGO Coffee Shop
Posted in: Today's ChiliRecently, London went LEGO while promoting The LEGO Movie 2. Among the LEGO-mania was a pop-up coffee shop that filled with LEGO items. The pop-up cafe is called The Coffee Chain, and it was inspired by the cafe in the movie. It was set up at London’s Observation Point in South Bank for two days.
The LEGO brick cafe is one thing, but there were also LEGO cupcakes that look delicious, though you would lose some teeth trying to eat one. The movie’s voice actors paid the coffee shop a visit too, including Chris Pratt and Tiffany Haddish who are the voices of Emmet and Queen Whatevra Wa’Nabi. The pair were on hand to serve the first customers, as well as endure endless selfies.
About 50,000 LEGO elements were used to bring the coffee shop to life, and it took six builders 236 hours to finish. Obviously, the entire structure wasn’t built entirely of LEGO, but it’s still pretty damn cool. It probably would have taken them a million pieces or more if it was.
I’d like to see LEGO build an entire town out of LEGO bricks, so people could live in it. I would live there. Though I’d probably kill my feet just walking across the floor of my house.

Two more bangers for the Switch’s NES selection: Kirby and Super Mario Bros 2
Posted in: Today's ChiliNostalgia for the NES is high following the success of Nintendo’s classic mini consoles and the launch of its Switch Online service, which just got a couple more great additions to its selection of 8-bit games: Kirby’s Adventure and the immortally weird Super Mario Bros 2.
Kirby had just made his debut on the Game Boy, but the NES follow-up really improved things. Better controls, better graphics, still hard as hell.
Super Mario Bros 2 is remembered as a curiosity, but it deserves more than that. Sure, it’s just an asset swap for Doki Doki Panic, but that doesn’t matter. It’s a fantastic game and you should take this opportunity to play it all the way through.
As long as you’re here, I feel I should also plug the games added a couple weeks back that probably didn’t get the love they deserved, then or 30 years ago.
Blaster Master is one of my favorite games of all time and massively underplayed. It’s an early “Metroidvania,” as we call such things these days, with amazing controls both in the side-scrolling and top-down portions, and a huge, crazy world to explore. This is an absolute classic and anyone who loves the NES should play it — or, if you find the original a bit clumsy, try the recent remake, which was both faithful and added some serious upgrades.
Zelda 2 also got added two weeks ago, and while it definitely has its problems, it’s actually a really compelling game and worthy of the name. But cast aside your associations and just play it as if it’s an old gem — use a walkthrough or VGmaps to help, though, because this game is a real bastard.
So far the selections for NSO have been quite good, and they play well. The service is still extremely barebones even for its paltry asking price, but at least you can’t complain (too much anyway) about the selection of free NES titles. With a few more trickling in every month, the library will soon be quite formidable and I might even start using it instead of my hacked SNES Classic. Especially with the rumor (and near certainty) that SNES games are soon to join their 8-bit cousins.
Nintendo is definitely going through some growing pains with its online service, but I feel that in a year it’ll be up to snuff. They tend to approach everything by first establishing essentials, and then adding bit by bit. No doubt we’ll hear more at GDC and E3 later this year.

What’s in a name? Sometimes not much, especially when a company offers the exact same product, just under a different brand. But when giants do some rebrand, it isn’t always just for the heck of it, especially when a simple name change will cost thousands of dollars. So when Microsoft rebrands Microsoft Studios into Xbox Game Studios, it’s doing more … Continue reading

I like to think I’m a friendly guy. I frequently wave at people and tend to like a lot of tweets on Twitter. Today, that friendliness was transformed into something dark and unfamiliar. Today, I accidentally re-liked hundreds of years-old tweets, alarming some, delighting others, and leaving me very, very sorry.

Remember the somewhat underwhelming wireless charging power bank Tesla released, pulled, and then re-released last year? It turns out that wasn’t the end of Tesla’s mobile accessories lineup. Now it has new folio cases to give some iPhones some classic classy flair. But as curious as that may sound, what’s even more curious is that Tesla has actually set up … Continue reading
