England baked under several heat waves throughout this summer. It didn’t just push the country into uncomfortable days—the heat waves also caused more than 2,800 additional people aged 65 and up in England to die, according to a new analysis from the U.K. Health Security Agency (UKHSA) and the Office for National…
While Archie Comics has had no problem pitting its main characters against werewolves, zombies, and more, the realm of spooks and specters has always been more the domain of Sabrina the Teenage Witch… and her cursed cat, Salem. Now, the feline familiar will get his own chance to battle the forces of darkness when…
If you enjoy the cringe comedy stylings of master manipulator and Canadian business school graduate Nathan Fielder, know that you’re not alone. In fact, you’re in company with everyone’s favorite richest man on Earth. Elon Musk also apparently feels a deep connection to Fielder’s off-kilter humor, and is sure that he…
It is “Spooky Season,” so it just makes sense we’d be seeing, or at least hearing, some famous tech folks coming back from the dead. Steve Jobs often feels like he’s still got two feet out of the grave for how often the tech entrepreneur is brought up in conversation by folks both in and out of the company he…
After a bit of a wait, Among Us VR is nearly ready. Innersloth, Schell Games and Robot Teddy have confirmed the virtual reality betrayal game will be available November 10th on Meta Quest 2 and Steam. There’s no mention of a PlayStation VR version in the announcement (we’ve asked Innersloth for comment), but this is still a big deal if you’re hoping for a fresh take on the game’s core concept.
As in the 2D version, Among Us VR asks crewmates to identify impostors before they kill the entire crew. However, the move to a first-person perspective shakes up gameplay. Impostors will now have an easier time sneaking around, and you can now use hand expressions when you accuse others or protest your innocence. If you’ve grown tired of plain Among Us, this might give you a reason to come back.

That “if” is important, of course. Among Usthrived in the early days of the pandemic, when it was one of the more entertaining ways to play and connect with your isolated friends. While it still has its audience, it’s not the cult phenomenon it was in 2020. With that said, this may be a good example of what VR gaming can do — you can socialize with your buddies while running for your virtual life.
The new monarch’s coronation is expected to be shorter and less extravagant than the three-hour ceremony that installed Elizabeth in 1953.
Because there will never be enough Star Wars merchandise in the world, Merchoid is selling this The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly-inspired stormtrooper statue. Complete with a cowboy hat and poncho, this stormtrooper is clearly ready to set out on his trusty steed (read: speeder bike) and seek his fortune. And if only he could hit the broad side of a barn with his blaster, he might actually stand a chance.
The statue measures approximately 18 cm (7 inches) tall and is cast from “the finest resin.” Not to be confused with just fine or finer resin, this is the finest resin, presumably mined from some planet in the Akkadese Maelstrom and used to cover the smuggling of glitterstim from Kessel. I’m not a Star Wars nerd; you are!
While the statue may have been made with the finest resin, it does not appear to have been made with the finest painting technique, with even the official product shots appearing as if they were painted by someone who assumed customers don’t have the same high standard in paint jobs as they do resin quality. That’s a shame, too, because I almost had my wife’s credit card out.
