The Guardians of the Galaxy are the latest Marvel heroes to get a video game adaptation. Square Enix revealed Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy at its E3 livestream yesterday, and it's coming to PlayStation 4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC on October 26.
The game is being developed by Eidos-Montréal, the studio best known for its work on the Deus Ex franchise. The new superhero title is a third-person action game based on the popular comic book franchise, and it focuses on combat and branching dialogue options.
On its surface, the game might seem similar to Marvel's Avengers with its third-person combat. The comparisons mostly end there. This is explicitly a single-player game with no post-launch content or DLC planned. It doesn't seem to feature loot or gear grinding either. Instead, it's a more straightforward adventure where players control Star-Lord, who can rack up combos with a mix of gunplay and melee attacks. |

With the exception of the Powerbeats Pro, which are primarily geared toward athletes, Beats by Dre has never made a pair of true wireless earbuds for everyday use. That surprising omission has finally been addressed with the new $150 Beats Studio Buds, a set of ultracompact, active noise-canceling (ANC) earbuds that offer most of the benefits of the AirPods Pro at a substantially lower price.
After listening to them for the past few days, we're big fans. With a tiny size, comfortable fit, great sound quality, and ANC that gets the job done, the $150 Beats Studio Buds are easily the best value of the entire Beats/AirPods range of wireless headphones. |

Xbox and Bethesda's big E3 press conference on Sunday featured a ton of game announcements. However, Xbox isn't quite done just yet. Microsoft announced a second showcase this week at 10 a.m. PT on Thursday, June 17.
Xbox Games Conference: Extended will take a deeper look at the Xbox and Bethesda games that were announced this past Sunday. It has already been confirmed that Double Fine, Rare, Ninja Theory, and many other developers will have representation at this showcase. This means we will hopefully get more information about games like Psychonauts 2 and the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean-themed season 3 for Sea of Thieves. |

TIPS, TRICKS, & TECHNIQUES |
Windows always has been a great environment for multitasking, with the ability to run several applications at once and to switch between them with relative ease.
In Windows 10, Microsoft tightened up the snapping mechanism and expanded its functionality. Today, the latest version of Windows 10 offers a number of ways to split your screen into multiple windows and get real work done, with better support for higher-resolution displays and multiple monitors. |
