Hasta La Gadget!

These days, one of the popular things for developers and publishers to do is release remasters of older titles. In a way this is not a bad thing, especially since there are many of us who have played games from back in the day that we wouldn’t mind playing again, especially with updated visuals and improvements.

Now, EA did previously tease that they were planning on releasing a remaster of their classic Command & Conquer RTS, and the good news is that the company has since confirmed that the remaster will now be released in June. This includes both Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn and Command and Conquer: Red Alert where both games will be updated with new graphics where they will now support playback on 4K displays.

For those who are unfamiliar, Command & Conquer was one of the early RTS games released way back in the day. It led to other companies creating their own takes, such as Blizzard which resulted in the immensely popular StarCraft series. EA’s plans for the remaster was originally announced back in November 2018, and it looks like after nearly 2 years later, the game is now ready to be played.

It remains to be seen how well the game will hold up in this day and age, so we’ll have to wait for a few more months before we can get our hands on it.

The ESA has recently announced that they will not be hosting E3 2020 this year. This is due to the coronavirus outbreak that has infected thousands around the world, with no signs that it is slowing down anytime soon. This means that any announcements you might have expected from developers and companies may no longer be taking place.

However, if you are looking forward to learning what Microsoft has in store in terms of Xbox-related announcements, you’ll be pleased to find out that according to Microsoft’s Xbox head, Phil Spencer, he has revealed that the company has plans to host an online Xbox event in which they will share the news on what Microsoft is up to in terms of Xbox games and development of the next-gen console.

The exact timing of the event and how gamers can participate is unclear, but Spencer notes that they will be sharing those details in the coming weeks. As for E3 2020, while the physical event itself has been cancelled, the organizers did state that they are exploring a way to perhaps create an online event that will allow companies to share what they’ve been working on online.

E3 has always been an important moment for Team Xbox. Given this decision, this year we’ll celebrate the next generation of gaming with the @Xbox community and all who love to play via an Xbox digital event. Details on timing and more in the coming weeks https://t.co/xckMKBPf9h

For several years now, Apple has maintained the design of its MacBook laptops, where some of the more major design changes include new color options, a built-in OLED display above the keyboard, and a new 16-inch display. But for the most part, on the outside, the MacBooks have kept that look for many years now.

While it’s not a bad look, we’re sure that there are some who probably think that it is time for a change, and the good news is that you would only have to wait until next year. This is according to notable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who claims that come mid-2021, Apple could be introducing a brand new MacBook design.

Kuo does not state which models will be getting the new design, but given Apple’s penchant for uniformity, we wouldn’t be surprised if all models were to eventually receive the updated design. Also, it is unclear what kind of design changes we could be looking at, but if you are hoping for a new MacBook design and you don’t need a new laptop right now, maybe holding out until next year might not be the worst idea.

In the meantime, Kuo has also stated that Apple’s long-rumored ARM-based MacBooks could actually be launching in the later part of this year or early 2021.

As the coronavirus has forced people to stay home to work or either study, in a bid to help prevent the spread of the virus, it seems that some companies are actually standing to gain from this pandemic. Apple is one of those companies where according to a report from the Nikkei Asian Review, the iPad is running out of stock in China.

Speaking to the publication, a person familiar with the matter was quoted as saying, “Later the need surged even higher when China opened schools but asked students to take the courses online. The shortage of the ‌iPad‌ range is up to four weeks of waiting, especially for the cheaper models. The supply could not meet the pace of the demand at all.”

This does not actually come as a surprise, because prior to this, there was a report that indicated that the iPad was seeing a surge in demand in China due to the increasing number of people who are staying home. There have also been reports that suggests that app stores could also be gaining financially as more people are looking for ways to keep themselves entertained.

That being said, it should be noted demand for the tablets could soon outweigh the supply. This is because many factories in China, where the iPad is made, have also been shutdown, meaning that it will be hard for Apple to restock the tablets once they’ve sold out. It was also previously suggested that this could also impact the rumored iPhone SE 2’s launch along with the 2020 iPhone 12 models.
