GameSir officially launches the PC version of its G7 Pro controller, unlocking a ludicrous 8,000Hz polling rate for less than $100
One of the controllers I’ve been most excited about this year is the untethered version of 2025’s best value gamepad. The GameSir G7 Pro has blasted onto the scene in the last year, and at CES back in January, it was announced that GameSir was launching a PC-dedicated model that improves its polling rate from 1,000Hz up to 8,000Hz. Despite that being a fairly common polling rate in a lot of competitive mice and keyboards, most of the best PC controllers still top out at a 1K polling rate.Despite being available for pre-order at GameSir’s own website for the last…

Industry lobbyists ridicule "false premise" that "consumers 'own' digital games" amid Stop Killing Games fight
The Stop Killing Games fight has recently entered a new arena with a piece of legislation in California called AB-1921, or the “Protect Our Games Act.” This bill, which will soon go before state lawmakers for a vote, would require publishers to ensure that their games remain playable past the end of official support or, barring that, offer a refund to players when those games shut down. One of the industry’s biggest trade bodies says this bill shouldn’t go through in part because it’s based on the “false” idea that you own your digital games.”AB 1921 is fundamentally flawed,” according…

The people behind the open source PS3 emulator RPCS3 are sick of dealing with bad code submissions from AI users, and are telling vibe coders exactly where they can stick it. The project has updated its policies on AI use, promising to ban anyone who tries to pass off AI-generated work as their own, and the team has been making its feelings on “AI slop” known on social media.”Please stop submitting AI slop code pull requests to RPCS3,” reads a tweet from RPCS3 posted on May 9 (thanks, Time Extension). “We will start banning those who do without disclosing.

Mortal Kombat 2 star Max Huang wants a Shaolin Monks spin-off after that standout Blue Portal fight
Mortal Kombat 2 star Max Huang wants a Shaolin Monks spin-off following that pretty sick Blue Portal fight scene between Kung Lao and Liu Kang.”Something that I personally would love to explore would be a Shaolin Monks spinoff,” Huang told IGN. “Ludi [Lin] has talked about it. I’ve been talking about it. It would be great to see those two characters’ origins and how they were raised by Bo’ Rai Cho and trained and exploring the White Lotus. Yeah, the lore of Mortal Kombat is huge.”Given that Mortal Kombat 2, the movie, adapts the second Mortal Kombat game from 1993,…
