In addition to the new Nitro Blaze 7 gaming handheld, Acer also brought its wild Project Dual Play concept gaming laptop to IFA. It’s essentially a gaming laptop in Acer’s Predator lineup with an interesting design that fits a detachable gamepad and pop-out speakers. It’s the most unusual laptop to show up at IFA this year, but it definitely has the potential to end up as a pretty useful laptop in stores sometime in the future, in my opinion.

Sony promised PC support for PlayStation VR2, and it looks to have made an adapter for just that

Okay, thanks for knocking $100 off for a limited time Sony, but where’s the PS VR2 PC support you promised? One thing, just about everyone, feels is holding the PS VR2 platform back is its required connection to a PS5. This arguably makes for a more stable experience for all users, but it needs to get PC support and, if you ask me, it needs it soon. It has been out in the wild for well over a year now, the game library still feels a bit stunted (although it is showing off new titles tomorrow), and, at least in some ways, sales are too because of it. Sony has indeed said it would take its latest virtual reality gaming platform off the leash at some point this year, and some new evidence has surfaced that it is indeed what is still happening. Check it out below.
