If you need a new gaming headset for Prime Day but you’ve already spent a lot on gaming PC deals or gaming laptop deals, the good news is that the budget-friendly HyperX Cloud Stinger 2 is on sale for an even lower price for the shopping event. From $50 originally, it’s down to just $37 following a 26% discount. We’re not sure if the $13 in savings will hold until the final minutes of Prime Day, but if you want to make sure that you’re able to take advantage of this bargain, you should proceed with the purchase right now.
While most of our picks for the best gaming headsets cost more than $100, the roundup includes the HyperX Cloud Stinger 2, which we’ve tagged as the best budget headset for PC gaming. Despite its affordable price, we described it as “a great gaming headset” in our review, giving it an outstanding score of 4.5 stars out of 5 stars. It still provides premium audio when playing the best PC games with its DTS Headphone:X virtual surround sound support, and while you’ll have to mind its cable as it’s a wired headset, that only means it will work with any device with a headphone jack for no need to worry about compatibility with specific platforms.
The HyperX Cloud Stinger 2 is budget-friendly, but it doesn’t feel cheap. The gaming headset is very comfortable as it’s extremely light — you won’t feel anything on your head at all — and you can rotate its earcups until you find the best position for you. The HyperX Cloud Stinger 2’s swivel-to-mute microphone will let you flip it out of the way when it’s not needed, and it has physical audio controls so you don’t need to navigate onscreen menus to make volume adjustments while you’re in the middle of a boss fight.
The HyperX Cloud Stinger 2 already offers amazing value at its original price of $50, which is why it’s a must-buy at its lowered price of just $37 from the gaming headset deals of Amazon’s Prime Day. The $13 discount may expire at any moment though, so there’s no time to waste if you’re interested in this bargain. Grab the HyperX Cloud Stinger 2 while it’s 26% off, as this affordable gaming headset could be the missing piece to complete your gaming setup.
The Call of Duty franchise has held a special place in my heart ever since I played my first Black Ops game back in 2010. That game's campaign was something else, with twists and turns that culminated in a mind-blowing finale. We can all admit that compared to those older campaigns, the recent CODs have been lackluster at best, and a complete and utter disappointment at worst. The reboot of Modern Warfare did give me some hope, as the first two installments were actually quite good, but the third game left such a bad taste in my mouth that I wasn’t exactly expecting much from Modern Warfare 4.
After recently finishing the campaign, I can say that this installment is nothing like the recent releases and instead feels closer to the franchise’s roots. For the first time in a long while, the campaign comes across as well-crafted rather than rushed to hit a release date. It arrives three years after MW3, and you can see exactly where all that time went. It seems the studio finally made listening to player feedback a priority.
Epic Games has just announced the 2026 Epic AI MegaJam, which is looking to see how much game development can be squeezed into a very short window. This is running from November 12 through November 15.
Participants can work alone or in teams of up to five people, build in Unreal Engine or Unreal Editor for Fortnite, and bring along “as many AI agents as you want.” Epic explicitly encourages coding agents, AI-generated assets, audio tools, writing tools, and other AI systems. The official event page literally says "Vibe your way to $50k.”
It’s turning into a pretty good time to be a Monster Hunter fan who plays on a phone. Capcom has confirmed that Monster Hunter Outlanders will launch on Android and iOS on October 29, giving the series a new mobile-first game just as Monster Hunter Rise is also preparing to make the jump to smartphones through Netflix.
Outlanders is being developed by Tencent subsidiary TiMi Studio Group under license and supervision from Capcom. Unlike Rise, which appears to be the full console and PC game adapted for mobile, Outlanders is a free-to-play survival hunting game made specifically for phones.
