Intel is releasing the third iteration of its logo since its debut in 1968. The sweeping curve consumers recognize from the “Intel Inside” marketing campaign has been replaced by a more minimalist approach that adopts elements from both predecessors. From the general tone of the announcement video, it seems Intel wanted to revise its brand while staying true to its history. By sticking to elements already present in its past branding, as Sony did with the PS5, Intel clearly aims to freshen up its look while still being instantly recognizable....

The fighting game genre has been strong and saturated in the past few years. So many classics from the ’90s have been reintroduced to modern consoles that it’s easier to make a list of titles that haven’t been remastered, remade, repackaged, or updated in some way. Without counting Fatal Fury and Art of Fighting, which have been absorbed into King of Fighters, then Darkstalkers, and Virtua Fighter remain the only two major fighting game franchises to not receive some kind of modern version....

Grand Theft Auto is one of the most popular and beloved video game franchises in history. Many of us have that one crazy GTA story in which we invaded an army base, carjacked a tank (or tank-jacked a tank?), did a wheelie while running over hippies, obliterated 20 sunbathers on the beach, and then drove into the sea to go out like a boss. It was awesome, right? Part of what makes the GTA games so good is the series’ goofiness....

For Gen-X viewers, He’s All That is a story we’ve seen before: Pygmalion or My Fair Lady, but updated with cultural references, settings, and technology that make the story of the lesson behind the plot—that the person you are is more important than the image you put forth—more connected to a modern audience. But digital natives who have grown up with as much with TikTok as with teen movie tropes will have a far richer experience, recognizing the cast not only as actors, but as the same influencers they’re playing....

All in all, people are happy that Horizon Zero Dawn, one of the PS4’s most critically-acclaimed games, is now available on Steam, judging by how massively popular its PC debut is, but by now it’s clear that the transition from one platform to the other has turned out less than smoothly. This is apparent in the fact that the game seems to have a hard time not crashing on players....
