Beyerdynamic MMX 300 Pro: Two-minute review The Beyerdynamic MMX 300 Pro hopes to distill the brand’s sonic pedigree into a gaming headset, by adopting a minimal design in every sense, devoid of extra features, and focusing completely on audio quality and comfort.

With Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 out and about, a lot of time is being spent figuring out the new movement system. That makes sense, omni-movement is a major addition to the game that offers a lot of skill expression, not to mention it’s a lot of fun. But with the good lurks the

The previously announced John Wick anime project is still on the way, and now it’s apparently a film about how the titular character retired.
