Stray promises a fascinating journey through the eyes of a cat
The Three Laws of Catotics.
Growing up I lived with a tabby called Twm. I say live with because it's less that my parents adopted him and more he appeared in their garage one night and refused to leave. Twm had a nonchalant attitude about life - going about his important cat business unworried unless a thunderstorm was involved. When Twm did require assistance though, he would silently stare at you, shadowing your steps, until you solved his problem. (And, once it was fixed, usually go do something completely different, because cat.) So I can say with utter assurance that if Twm had found himself lost in a city inhabited by robots, he'd have simply found a comfy spot near a radiator and waited for me to find him. Thankfully, Stray's titular cat is far more proactive than Twm would ever have been in this situation.

Digital Foundry | Steam Deck vs Xbox Series S - how future-proof is the Valve handheld?
Testing the Deck against the baseline for next-gen games development.
Valve's Steam Deck is a seriously impressive piece of it, thanks in no small part to the power-efficient, highly capable AMD Van Gogh APU that runs the show. As we've already seen, this portable PC can match the PlayStation 4 experience at lower resolutions, while its support for ray tracing in combination with its built-in SSD stands it in good stead for future games. However, with demanding software on the horizon and last-gen systems finally starting to fall by the wayside, Microsoft's Xbox Series S is establishing itself as the baseline for modern gaming. So here's the question: can we push the Steam Deck to produce a viable portable alternative to the Series S experience - even on the most demanding games?

Recommended | Apex Legends Mobile review - battle royale sticks the landing on phones
Good reception.
You know the feeling, right? It's like when the US makes a facsimile of your favourite UK show, or your most cherished childhood book gets the Hollywood treatment. You're excited, because getting more of something you love can never be a bad thing. But you're nervous, too, because the reason why you love it may be different to the reason others do. I get that same sense of uneasy delight each time I find out a game I love gets a port or a remaster. I'm at once both giddy and a touch apprehensive, and I've learned - mostly the hard way - to hold my giddiness firmly in check when a favourite franchise gets the mobile treatment.
