Just be aware, the update WILL force Apple Intelligence to enable itself after it is completed (on compatible devices).

Halo Animated Short Midnight in the Heart of Midlothian January 27, 2025

The official Halo YouTube channel just released a major blast from the past with very little fanfare. In 2009, Microsoft released the very first non-gaming dedicated application, dubbed Halo Waypoint. It allowed gamers to unlock exclusive digital Halo content for the Xbox as well as offered entirely original Halo video content. Part of that content was a series of animated short films which adapted several stories from the Halo novels. One of those stories was The Mona Lisa, which was rereleased this past Halloween. Another was Midnight in the Heart of Midlothian, which was just rereleased earlier tonight!

If you’ve never seen it before or (like me) haven’t seen it in over ten years, you can watch it below!

If memory serves at least one more short film from Halo Waypoint has yet to be re-released. This team would go on to adapt the original Halo novel The Fall of Reach into a multi-part animated film, and that can still be found on several streaming services.

Halo: Infinite is out now for PC, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S.

iOS/iPadOS 18.3, VisionOS 2.3 Released January 27, 2025

It’s going to be another one of those nights if you happen to be an Apple Enthusiast! Apple has just released a major update for all iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Vision Pro and Macs earlier today.

Just be aware that with this update, the Apple Intelligence feature is no longer optional on supported devices, installing the update will force the Apple Intelligence feature ON, and you MUST disable it manually on a per-device basis after concluding the update.

Until Dawn’s First Movie Trailer January 21, 2025

Until Dawn was one of my favorite games for the Playstation 4! It had an incredible story performed by an talented cast and featured a branching storyline that made people want to replay it over and over again. Now, Sony is on the cusp of releasing a feature film based upon the game’s premise, and it will be in theaters soon. Here’s the official trailer!

I’m a little disappointed they’ve chosen to create a new story and hired a new cast, but the filmmakers are making it clear that this film is meant to be a new story in the Until Dawn universe, with a new mechanic (the repeating days) to adapt the gameplay to a linear film. Time will tell if this ends up working out, but I’m willing to keep an open mind. I did REALLY love Sony’s previous film adaptation for Gran Tursismo.

Nintendo Switch 2 Announced January 16, 2025

Human Within – Launch Trailer January 10, 2025

An impressive title I’ve been wanting to see in VR has just been released for the Quest 3, let’s take a look at Human Within and its launch trailer!

A branching live-action FMV game produced exclusively for virtual reality? This is EXACTLY what I’ve been hoping to see come to the medium since I got involved in it two years ago. Where do I sign up for more?

Human Within is out now for Meta Quest. It is also coming to PCVR.

iOS/iPadOS 18.2.1 Released January 6, 2025

Apple has just released a minor update for the iPad and iPhone at this time. It appears to have no specific new features, and only includes the typical announcement of “bug fixes and optimizations” common in an update as minor as this.

Depending on your device the update can weigh in around 250-350MB in size. This only seems to affect iPhones and iPads, as there does not appear to be an update for the Apple Watch, Mac or Apple TV at this time. We have not tested if an update was released for Vision Pro.
