The next Pokémon looks a bit like Minecraft

theverge.com Andrew Webster 2025-09-27 09:08:06

A new Pokémon spinoff is on the way, and it looks very different than any other entry in the long-running franchise. In fact, it looks a little bit like Minecraft — and it’s called Pokémon Pokopia. The game has players controlling a Ditto that has taken on the form of a human, which means that it’s a little cute and also a little creepy. The goal of the game is to shape an empty landscape into a suitable home for some pokémon. That means taming the wilderness, growing crops, and also using a bu

Little Nightmares 3 Hands-On: a Creepy Co-Op Game Arriving Just in Time for Halloween

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-09-30 13:01:49

After about an hour playing Little Nightmares 3, I'd used a person's bisected halves to solve a puzzle, gotten a high score in a carnival shooting game and escaped the murderous claws of a deranged baby. As a 2-foot-tall youth trying to survive the morbid dangers of one demented area after another with my co-player, I was terrified and delighted. I've only sampled the first two Little Nightmares games, but in my brief preview of Little Nightmares 3, it felt like a refined version of the series'

Our Favorite Earbuds for Working Out Are Cheaper Than Ever

wired.com Brad Bourque 2025-10-01 09:14:24

Beats has been a household name in headphones for years, known for punchy bass and bold styling. The Powerbeats Pro 2 (9/10, WIRED Recommends) use ergonomic over-ear hooks to stay absolutely secure in your ears when you're running, lifting, or just walking the dog. They're usually a little expensive at $250, but Amazon has them marked down to just $200 in a variety of colors. While ear hooks might sound a little odd coming from the world of more traditional wireless earbuds, there's no need to

The Robot Vacuum’s Next Humble Trick: Climbing Stairs

gizmodo.com Wes Davis 2025-10-07 02:30:34

Stair-climbing robot vacuums are actually about to be a reality, sort of. That’s courtesy of a little baby trend at IFA 2025 of robot vacuums slipping into something more climbable—a little caddy that carries them upstairs when it’s time to move floors, then waits to carry them back down when they’re done. The first one we encountered was the Eufy MarsWalker. Then, it turned out that Dreame had one, too, using almost the exact same approach, only it’s weirdly much scarier-looking. Both have a s

Finally, You Can Cuddle With a Cute Camera-Clad AI Robot That Feels Jealousy

Lots of people had stuffed animals when they were little. My personal favorite was a teddy bear in army fatigues, named—you guessed it—Army Bear. Fidel Castro was already taken, unfortunately. As much as I loved Army Bear, I remember thinking, “This would be so much more adorable with an on-device LLM designed to understand cloud-free natural language prompts and enable object recognition via computer vision.” And finally, almost 30 years later, SwitchBot has answered my very real and not-at-all

One of the most devastating parts of grief is how it can strike out of nowhere. There you are, doing a perfectly normal, everyday thing, and then that perfectly normal, everyday thing reminds you of something or someone who is no longer there. And when that presence you lost was intimately connected with your life, well, those moments happen frequently and unexpectedly.

Momentum is what Wheel World does best. It is the feeling of reaching a downhill section of road, a pristine Sega-blue sea stretching out in the far distance, and letting gravity, the weight of your bicycle, and slope do all the work. Release the right trigger, the button used to peddle, and simply careen down the gently curving asphalt.

I wish you could roll the tray into the riser to hide it, which would go a long way in making the FlexFit look a little more elegant, and could also help with storage. You also can't adjust the height of the tray, so while I didn't have issues typing on a keyboard, I found my wrist cramping up a little when using my Apple Magic Trackpad because it was a little too low.
