So what if you slept in on Black Friday — that’s what Cyber Monday is for. We here at Digital Trends have joined in on the shopping craze with our very own killer deal: a giveaway! Thanks to Turtle Beach, we’re giving away a limited edition Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Sentinel Prestige gaming headset for Xbox One.
You can truly immerse yourself in the game with this awesome headset. Its got premium 50mm Neodymium speakers, a removable microphone, and volume controls built in. The headset even has variable mic monitoring, so you’ll also be able to hear yourself talk in the heat of battle. You’ll be able to adjust the bass boost, overall volume, and chat controls, too. To top it all off, Turtle Beach gave the Sentinel Prestige headset synthetic leather ear cushions, making it comfortable to wear for multi-hour gaming sessions. The headphones also block out other sounds to keep you focused on completing your mission.
Whether you’re using it to play another Xbox One game or Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, which our gaming editor Adam Rosenberg called “the best Call of Duty game in years,” this headset will keep you in the game. We’ve given rave reviews to Turtle Beach gaming headsets in the past, and this one is no exception.
Acer’s Predator Atlas 8 finally has a US release date and price, several months after the company first showed off the handheld in May. The highlight is the Intel Arc G3 Extreme chip inside, which has been adopted by only a couple of other consoles besides the Atlas 8. This version will go on sale exclusively at Best Buy on November 1 for $1,299.99.
Acer originally said the Atlas 8 would arrive in North America in October, but left pricing open at the time. The launch came amid the ongoing DRAM crunch, which has made memory more expensive across the PC industry and complicated pricing for hardware makers.
Google Play is borrowing one of the Nintendo Switch’s most useful little tricks. A new Sidekick tool called Playbacks captures a short clip after something interesting has already happened, sparing players from running a screen recorder throughout an entire game.
Playbacks is part of Google Play Store v53.8 and keeps saved clips on the phone. Google first announced it earlier this month, but the new Play Store update marks its arrival for players. Anyone who has watched a perfect win vanish because the record button came too late already understands the appeal.
