Hé, mais finalement, WARDOGS n’a pas l’air si nul !

On vous en parlait il y a une dizaine de jours, WARDOGS se montre de nouveau pour nous expliquer enfin plus concrètement ce qu’il proposera. On savait déjà que les développeurs s’étaient rapprochés des créateurs du mod King of the Hill pour Arma 3, mais on ne savait pas à quel point. Maintenant, c’est assez clair : il s’agit d’une transcription plutôt littérale en jeu standalone. En effet, il y aura trois équipes d’une trentaine de joueurs, dont l’objectif sera d’occuper une zone spécifique sur la map pour engranger des points, et chaque action permettra de gagner de l’argent, nécessaire pour faire évoluer son équipement. On n’est pas experts sur le mod du jeu de Bohemia, donc on ne saurait dire jusqu’où vont les similarités, mais dans WARDOGS, il semble que le teamplay soit réellement mis en avant, et d’une façon assez maligne : avec de la thunasse. Chaque action pour aider ses coéquipiers sera récompensée, ce qui encouragera les plus gros connards d’entre nous à tout de même relever les potes ou les transporter à l’autre bout de la map.

Un autre point intéressant est la non-restriction de la taille des escouades, ce qui permet de jouer avec les quatre potes habituels sans laisser Jean-Kevin sur le carreau, même s’il a un micro dégueulasse et qu’il n’a pas terminé de télécharger ses 8 Go de RAM supplémentaires. Sinon, il y a deux ou trois autres aspects techniques originaux, comme une mini-zone mouvante dans la zone à tenir, au sein de laquelle on gagnera encore plus de points et qui promet d’être le théâtre d’affrontements un peu plus nerveux, ou encore le fait qu’on conservera la monnaie emmagasinée entre chaque partie, afin d’avoir une sorte de méta-progression.

Visuellement, le jeu a l’air plutôt correct, et le mode de jeu est tout de même assez original. Évidemment, il faudra attendre d’avoir les mains dessus pour se forger une réelle opinion, mais on doit dire qu’on a changé d’avis depuis les premières présentations. On est franchement curieux de voir comment cela s’articulera.

Si vous aussi êtes intéressés par WARDOGS, vous pouvez dorénavant l’ajouter à votre liste de souhaits depuis sa nouvelle page Steam. Vous pourrez y découvrir que l’accès anticipé est prévu pour cette année.

The Ultra-Slim Baseus Blade 20,000mAh 100W Power Bank Drops to $39.99 for Presidents Day

Looking for a high-capacity, high-output power bank with a slim footprint? For Presidents Day, Amazon has dropped the price of the Baseus Blade 20,000mAh 100W power bank to just $39.99 shipped after you apply coupon code "YBKEIAQE". Unlike previous iterations of this deal, you do NOT have to be an Amazon Prime member. Unlike most high-capacity power banks that are shaped like a chunky bar, the Baseus Blade is slimmer. It's powerful enough to charge any gaming handheld PC at its fastest rate. This is one of the most popular power banks on IGN.

Baseus Blade 20,000mAh 100W Slim Power Bank for $39.99

The Baseus Blade measures only 0.7 inches thick. Most high-capacity power banks are well over 1" in thickness. The Blade achieves this slim depth by going with a wider body design. The form factor allows it to fit perfectly in a laptop bag or backpack sleeve. It still weighs in at about one pound which is comparable to other power banks, so no give or take there.

The wide body allows it to squeeze in four ports: two USB Type-C ports each with 100W of Power Delivery and two USB Type-A ports each with 30W output. Note that the maximum charging output is 100W. That means although all three ports add up to a total of 160W, only a maximum of 100W will be delivered across all three ports if they are used simultaneously.

The 20,000mAh capacity can fully recharge your gaming handhelds

This Baseus Blade boasts a generous 20,000mAh, or 74Whr battery capacity. If you factor in 80% power efficiency, here are the approximate number of times you can fully recharge each gaming handheld or iPhone model:

  • Nintendo Switch 2 (18Whr) about 3.3 times
  • Steam Deck (40-50Whr) about 1.2-1.5 times
  • ROG Xbox Ally (60Whr) about 1 times
  • ROG Xbox Ally X (80Whr) about 0.7 times
  • Lenovo Legion Go S (55Whr) about 1 time
  • Apple iPhone 17 (14Whr) about 4.2 times
  • Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max (20Whr) about 3 times

The 100W output can fast charge nearly all phones and gaming handhelds

The Baseus Blade has USB Type-C ports that provides up to 100W of power output but it will automatically throttle down to whatever maximum rate the plugged-in device accepts. The Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 can only accept a maximum of 18W-30W of power output. The Steam Deck can accept up to 45W. The Legion Go S accepts up to 55W. The Xbox ROG Ally X can actually accept charging rates of up to 100W.

This power bank can be brought onto airplanes

You don't need to worry about being stopped at airports. The 20,000mAh 74Whr capacity is well below TSA's 27,000mAh/100Whr carry-on limit, so you are safely in the clear.

However, My Best Buy Plus and Total members get an extra $397 discount, dropping the price to $1,599.99 with free shipping. This price is closer to what I'd expect for the 65" model. Note that, depending on your zip code, this TV may already be sold out.

77" LG Evo C5 4K OLED TV for $1,599.99

for My Best Buy Plus and Total members

The C5 is LG's most popular OLED TV, sitting right in between the super pricey Gallery Series (G5) and the budget B5. The C5 boasts the near-infinite black levels, near-infinite contrast ratio, and near-instantaneous response times you'd expect from any OLED TV. It's also equipped with LG's proprietary Evo panel, which is significantly brighter and offers a wider color gamut than traditional W-OLED TVs. This is the best TV for streaming 4K HDR content in its intended glory.

LG's OLED TVs have also been our favorite TVs for console gaming for three years running thanks to their outstanding image quality, low input lag, and high refresh rate. The C5 is equipped with modern gaming features, including a native 120Hz panel that can be pushed to as high as 144Hz, HDMI 2.1 inputs for running PS5 games in 4K at up to 120fps, variable refresh rate (VRR) and auto low latency mode (ALLM).

The mfish Valentines Day Sale Takes an Extra 15% Off Its Boldly Designed Power Banks, Chargers, and Cables

17 février 2026 à 00:05

Update: This coupon is now expired.

Still searching for a good Valentine's Day gift? Power banks and chargers might sound like a boring gift idea, but not if they look as stylish as the ones that mfish offers. Even better, you can save an extra 15% off sitewide with coupon code: "MFVAL26" through February 14. Note that you want your order total to clear the $39.99 free shipping threshold, since otherwise shipping starts at $6. mfish power banks, chargers, and cables are a huge step up in build quality, design, and features compared to the standard Anker, Baseus, and Iniu products you generally find on Amazon.

Aroma Bee 6ft 240W USB-C Scented? Cable for $4.24

"Aromatherapy cables"

I'll start off with a great deal on one of the more unique products, to say the least. mFish's "Aroma Bee" charging cable is down to just $4.24 from its original $16 list price. These cables are thicker than your standard USB cable but in a good way; they look and feel more durable, but they still bend well and comes in fun colors like pastel pink, blue, or purple. I'll mention that the "liquid silicone" sheath that mfish uses feels ultra silky smooth to the touch, and it's much nicer than any other silicone cable I've used before. They're terminated with RGB illuminated aluminum alloy connectors for that extra bling factor. It's rated for 240W, which is the max power rating for any USB cable.

What's really unique, though, is that the terminal ends acts as an electric diffuser. You read that right; there's a spot in the cable end to add in a few drops of oil for a little bit of aromatherapy. I believe some diffuser oil is actually included as well. I don't know if I'd use that feature myself, but for $4.24, I can't think of another cable with more features.

E-Rhino 140W USB-C Charger for $46.74

Free 4-in-1 USB cable with purchase

Looking for a charger with swag? The mFish E-Rhino charger features a stylish futuristic design in your choice of green, silver, or pink. It's no slouch in the performance department either. The compact GaN power brick houses four total outputs, including one USB-C port capable of up to 140W of Power Delivery 3.1.

With the coupon, the price drops to $46.75 (which means it qualifies for free shipping). That's actually not much cheaper than getting it from Amazon, however you also get a really cool freebie in the form of an mFish Armored Dragon 6ft 240W charging cable. This is a 4-way cable that can convert to (1) USB-C to USB-C, (2) USB-C to Lightning, (3) USB-A to USB-C, and (4) USB-A to Lightning with an ingenious terminal design which prevents you from losing any pieces.

E-Monster Qi2 MagSafe Power Banks from $33.99

Free 4-in-1 USB cable with purchase

The mfish E-Monster power bank boasts an eye catching that's bound to turn heads. The decorative side is protected by a textured tempered glass that gives it a much more premium look and feel than the plastic power banks that are all too common nowadays. Both 5,000mAh and 10,000mAh MagSafe models are Qi2 certified and rated for up to 15W of wireless power delivery. There's also a 20W USB Type-C port if you need faster charging.

The 5,000mAh model is very slim, measuring a mere 0.3" thin and weighing 4.4 ounces. It's priced at $33.99 after coupon. The 10,000mAh gives you twice the battery capacity, but it's also considerably thicker and heavier and also includes a built-in kickstand. This model is priced at $49.29 with free shipping after coupon. Both include a 4-in-1 charging cable

E-Tank 240W Power Station for $110.49

Free 4-in-1 USB cable with purchase

The mfish E-Rhino power station is popular amongst influencers because it looks so very cool with its illuminated ringed power outlets. This is a compact, all-inclusive power station that is hefty enough to sit on your desk without moving around. Total outputs include three standard 3-prong AC outlets rated for up to 1,250W each and four USB-C ports with 240W maximum power output (140W max for a single port). The three AC outlets are raised and encased in a plastic sheath that can be illuminated to your choice of color. The lights aren't super bright so it won't distract you.

With the coupon, the price drops to $110.49 plus you get a free mfish Armored Dragon 6ft 240W 4-way charging cable. It's currently priced at $139.99 on Amazon with no cable included.

Super Mushroom 20,000mAh Modular Power Bank from $80

Connect two together for 40,000mAh of power

One of the more innovative mfish products is its Super Mushroom 20,000mAh 100W modular power bank. It boasts a cylindrical design with a translucent plastic outer casing that showcases the stylish lithium battery cells inside. What's really neat is that two of these power banks can be stacked together to form a single unit with a 40,000mAh capacity.

The coupon code doesn't work on this product because there's already an instant discount. The $99.99 sku drops to $80 in-cart and includes a single 20,000mAh power bank. The $199.99 kit drops to $160 in-cart and gets you two 20,000mAh power banks plus (1) a link module to stack the two power banks together, (2) a flashlight module, and (3) a magnetic charging module. Whatever package you decide on, you get a free mfish Armored Dragon 6ft 240W 4-way charging cable.

The Legion RTX 5070 Gaming PC Drops to $1580 During the Lenovo Presidents Day Sale

17 février 2026 à 00:00

Thanks to a new unadvertised coupon code that just went live for Presidents Day, Lenovo is offering a solid deal on a mid-range gaming PC. The Lenovo Legion Tower 5 Gen 10 gaming PC equipped with a GeForce RTX 5070 GPU drops to just $1,574.99 after you apply coupon code "PDLIVE26". Free delivery is included. The RTX 5070 graphics card is an excellent choice for gaming at up to 1440p, although it also has the chops to run many games in 4K.

Lenovo Legion Tower 5 RTX 5070 Gaming PC for $1575

The Lenovo Legion Tower 5 Gen 10 gaming PC is equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 7 265F CPU, GeForce RTX 5070 12GB GPU, 32GB of DDR5-5600MHz RAM, and a 2TB M.2 SSD. The Intel Core Ultra 7 265F is a 20-core processor with a max turbo frequency of 5.3GHz. Rare for a Legion Tower 5 system, the CPU is cooled by a 240mm all-in-one liquid cooler.

A total of six 120mm RGB fans and a sensibly designed 30L midtower chassis keeps your components quiet and cool. An 850W 80PLUS Gold power supply provides plenty of power. The case offers toolless entry and most of the components are non-proprietary, so they are easy to swap out or upgrade yourself down the road.

The GeForce RTX 5070 GPU is an excellent choice for 1080p or 1440p gaming

Compared to the previous generation GPUs, the RTX 5070 offers a slight performance improvement over the RTX 4070 Super, which was and still is an excellent GPU. The fps gain is greater in games that support DLSS 4.5 with multi-frame gen, which is common for any new release game that doesn't have some special agreement with AMD (and even then, the support usually comes in the form of a patch later).

This is the best Nvidia RTX 5000 series GPU for up to 1440 gaming without overspending. That said, it is also fully capable of running non-demanding games at 4K resolution as well. The next card up - the RTX 5070 Ti - is practically impossible to find as a standalone card at MSRP, and an RTX 5070 Ti prebuilt will run you $2,000 (except during Presidents Day). Check out our GeForce RTX 5070 review for our hands-on impression and benchmarks.

The 77" LG G5 Gallery Series 4K OLED TV Drops to $2,352 During the Amazon Presidents Day Sale

Amazon is offering an incredible price on LG's highest-end OLED TV for Presidents Day. As of this post, you can pick up a massive 77" LG G5 Gallery Series 4K OLED TV for $2,352.24 with free delivery. The previous lowest price I ever saw for this TV was $3,000 and LG currently has it for $3,500. If you want it, get it now because, according to Amazon, there are less than 10 units left in stock. Beach Camera is an authorized LG reseller.

77" LG G5 Gallery Series OLED TV for $2,352.24

The G5 is the current generation (2025) Gallery series model. LG's Gallery series TV is LG's highest end OLED TV and perhaps the best OLED TV, period. That means it's superior to the more mainstream LG C5. Although both TVs are equipped with a premium "Evo" panel that's already better than traditional W-OLED TVs, the G-series goes one step further by incorporating MLA (micro lens array) technology, which significantly improves brightness.

We picked the LG Gallery series as one of our favorite TVs for gaming. It has all the features you'd want in a current generation gaming TV, including a native 120Hz-165Hz panel and four HDMI 2.1 ports that can run games in 4K at 120Hz on a PS5 or Xbox Series X console. It supports variable refresh rate (VRR) and auto low latency mode (ALLM).

One note to keep in mind is that none of the LG G-series TVs include a stand. They are meant to be mounted on the wall like an art installation (hence the "Gallery" monikor). Instead, a flush mount wall bracket is included.

Sans surprise, la majorité des devs de Highguard ont été licenciés

Par : Estyaah
16 février 2026 à 15:37

La semaine dernière, le studio Wildlight Entertainment a annoncé sur X le licenciement d’un nombre non déterminé de membres de l’équipe derrière son tout premier jeu, Highguard. Dans le cas où vous auriez déjà oublié ce que c’est, il s’agit d’un hero shooter en 3v3 avec une notion de loot et de la défense de base. La direction artistique absolument insipide n’avait pas spécialement attiré les foules. Malgré un démarrage correct avoisinant les 100 000 joueurs simultanés, le jeu, pourtant free-to-play, a rapidement sombré vers des chiffres difficilement soutenables pour Wildlight Entertainment. En effet, il fallait bien payer les développeurs et maintenir les serveurs. Mais avec des courbes qui dépassent de moins en moins les 5 000 joueurs sur les deux dernières semaines malgré l’ajout d’un mode 5v5, le studio a dû prendre une décision drastique.

Highguard

Ils assurent cependant conserver un groupe de développeurs pour continuer à maintenir et faire évoluer le jeu. La communication officielle n’est pas très loquace sur le nombre de départs, mais l’un des level designer mis à la porte a indiqué sur LinkedIn que « la plupart des membres de l’équipe de Wildlight » avait été licenciés.

Highguard 2

Il semble que personne ne soit très étonné : dès l’annonce lors des Game Awards, les joueurs avaient raillé le projet, qui semblait très décevant au regard des précédents projets des différents membres du studio (notamment Apex Legends et Titanfall 2). À la sortie, la tentative de hype lancée par certains influenceurs n’a pas suffi pour masquer les problèmes de performance, de rythme, ou la direction artistique sans âme. Cependant, tout n’était pas à jeter, et on avait trouvé ça beaucoup moins pourri que ne le laissait entendre les catastrophiques avis sur Steam. On avait passé une bonne soirée, mais on n’avait pas eu envie de relancer ensuite – chose que s’est dite la majorité des joueurs, au final. Ce sont tout autant de personnes qui n’achèteront pas de skins ou autres battle pass, pourtant absolument nécessaires à la survie du studio. On se rend compte du manque de discernement des dirigeants, qui n’avaient d’autre issue que de rencontrer un énorme succès s’ils ne voulaient pas s’écraser comme une bouse tiède sur le mur de la réalité. Peut-être auraient-ils dû consulter quelques professionnels du métier avant de faire un all-in. Si certains nous lisent, la prochaine fois, n’hésitez pas, on n’est pas cher !

Dans tous les cas, les serveurs sont toujours en fonctionnement. Et comme le jeu est free-to-play, si vous souhaitez tester, vous pouvez le récupérer en vous rendant sur sa page Steam. Mais ne tardez pas trop : le nombre joueurs continue de chuter, et le studio pourrait débrancher la prise dans les prochaines semaines.
