OFFICIAL (@stalker_thegame) December 16, 2021 The implementation of NFT in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chernobyl was shaky at best. One element in the original plan include letting players that bought into the NFT spiel be NPCs in the game’s open world....

Specifically, consumers can slash down the price of their Galaxy S21 Series devices by trading in their old device through the Samsung Trade-Up Program. Held in cooperation with CompAsia, the amount of discount that they would be able to get mainly depends on the device itself as well as its condition. According to the program’s Terms and Conditions, Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max 512GB commands the highest trade-in value at RM 4,815....

To boil it down to the simplest terms, Samsung says that it is more or less on track in the development of 6G and that research is ongoing at its Advanced Communications Research Centre, set up in May last year. On another note, Samsung says that the commercialisation and availability of 6G will only be feasible early as 2028, while mass commercialisation may only happen sometime in 2030. Samsung also says that where 5G focused on performance, 6G will add two more focus pillars: architectural and trustworthiness....

According to TechSpot, Oracle endgineer Michael Driscoll wrote a script that scrapes eBay’s sold listings in the US for specific items. And based on the data, scalpers have made a profit of about US$39 million (~RM158 million) off of this season’s tech toys. Breaking the numbers down for the consoles, the full PS5 netted scalpers are around US$14.7 million (~RM59.6 million) in profits, while the Digital Edition brought in US$4....

TweakTown reports that in a recent management meeting, Sega CEO Haruki Satomi said that the company has no concrete plans for P2E (play-to-earn) for now. And if its implementation is “perceived as simple money-making” by gamers, then the company will not proceed with said plans. Which is very refreshing to hear, especially from the head of a video games publisher these days. Translated minutes for the meeting cited in the report is dated 14 December 2021....

This time around, the E-Bazar is being held in conjunction with the upcoming Chinese New Year.

And it looks like Shazam! will continue DC’s fine form. Well, at the very least, we know that it’s going to be a film unlike anything we’ve seen come out of the DC live-action banner in recent memory. Check out the new Shazam! trailer below: As evident from the trailer, this Shazam movie will be a bonkers, over the top, action-comedy. Recently, the higher-ups at Warner Bros/DC have made it clear that they’ve gotten rid of their previous blueprint — which we assume simply read: do whatever Marvel is doing — and are instead starting to forge their own path, focussing more on standalone films with unique directorial visions as opposed to building a cinematic universe....

Specs-wise, the RX0 II features the same 1-inch, 15.3MP sensor that was first introduced in the RX0.

As the Financial Times reports, the two Japanese companies have established a joint venture known as Sony Honda Mobility earlier in September. They’ve yet to decide on a brand name, but the two have already decided that they want to take on the other names in the EV market in making an EV “built around a premium entertainment experience”. With Sony in the mix, the premium entertainment part of the equation is probably sound....

While we haven’t personally tested the feature, one owner of the earbuds says that users will have to choose between adjusting the volume or easy access to noise-cancellation. The implementation makes sense from a specific standpoint; like most earbuds, volume control requires both earbuds, with one side each either decreasing or increasing the volume level. For owners of the Sony WF-1000XM3, installing the new firmware is pretty straightforward. You’ll need to open up the Sony Headphones Connect app and ensure that the earbuds are connected to your phone....

While a fresh new look isn’t unwelcome, the bigger question is: has Sony managed to retain the elements that made the 1000XM3 good with these earbuds? What Is It? Just as the 1000XM3 was an overhaul of Sony’s horrifying 1st generation WF-1000X, the 1000XM4 is essentially a complete redesign and “do-over” of the TWS earbuds. Of course, like the 1000XM3, these earbuds come build with Sony’s full suite of top-notch features, including improved active noise cancellation (ANC) and proprietary audio technology too....
