| Sega Dreamcast darling Shenmue is becoming an anime series Posted: 04 Sep 2020 05:47 PM PDT  I've often heard that Shenmue set the standard for a living, breathing open world in video games when it was released on Sega Dreamcast in 1999. It was followed by some of the most highly anticipated video game sequels ever made, and Shenmue III set a record for the most-funded Kickstarter game in 2015. Now, AT&T's Crunchyroll has announced that Shenmue is getting its own anime series. According to Deadline, it'll air on Adult Swim's Toonami in the United States, not just on Crunchyroll itself, and will follow game protagonist Ryo Hazuki in his quest to become a martial artist and avenge his father's murder. Other than that rough outline, the image above, and the fact that Crunchyroll has ordered 13 episodes, we don't... |
| Today I learned my baby’s Fisher-Price gamepad accepts the Konami Code Posted: 04 Sep 2020 05:14 PM PDT  My wife bought a toy game controller for our baby girl. I couldn't have been prouder. Our six-month old already loved to drum her feet on my DualShock 4 — a born gamer. So I started absentmindedly fiddling with the so-called "Fisher-Price Game & Learn," impressed by how many sounds they'd managed to cram into one toy. Then, a funny idea struck me. I started pressing the buttons in that infamous sequence — the one that's become such a must-have easter egg in the gaming community, it's worth punching into practically any game to see if developers decided to pay respects. Up. Up. Down. Down. Left. Right. Left. Right. B. A. By the time I got halfway through, I'd convinced myself it was folly. The controller's audio wasn't keeping up... |
| Doom and Doom II get official widescreen support, 27 years later Posted: 04 Sep 2020 04:11 PM PDT  Doom is the game that just won't die, no matter how many times you blast those demons away — and owner Bethesda has seen fit to give the 27-year-old original quite a number of upgrades this year. After adding 60fps support and community-made add-ons in January, the re-released Doom and Doom II are now getting official 16:9 widescreen support as well. According to a Bethesda blog post (via Polygon) the company has actually modified the original Doom renderer to natively provide 16:9 without letterboxing, giving you a wider field of view on the original game instead of big ugly borders or simply stretching out the existing image. The lack of letterbox should be particularly handy for owners of the Nintendo Switch, iPhone and Android... |
| Amazon takes down a five-star fraud in the UK Posted: 04 Sep 2020 03:24 PM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Amazon's top reviewers in the UK appear to have engaged in fraud, leaving thousands of five-star ratings in exchange for money or free products. The company took down 20,000 product reviews following an investigation by the Financial Times. Justin Fryer, the number one Amazon reviewer in the UK, left a five-star rating once every four hours on average in August, according to the FT's analysis. Many of these reviews were for products from random Chinese companies. Fryer then seems to have resold the products on eBay. Scams like these typically start on social networks and messaging apps such as Telegram, where companies can meet potential reviewers. Once the connection is made, the... |
| This suspected Apple Watch prototype is disguised as a tiny iPod Posted: 04 Sep 2020 03:02 PM PDT  Is this an actual prototype Apple Watch in one of those covert "security cases" that companies sometimes use when they're testing gadgets in broad daylight? We can't say. Either way, this tiny iPod is perversely adorable — and quite the in-joke if it's real.
You see, the sixth-generation iPod nano inspired quite a few people to try using the tiny square as a watch, including The Verge's own editor-in-chief Nilay Patel. (Note: this was a... |
| How to turn off autoplay videos on Facebook, Twitter, Firefox, and more Posted: 04 Sep 2020 02:30 PM PDT  Photo by Amelia Holowaty Krales / The Verge You've probably been caught off guard by videos that play automatically on Facebook, Twitter, or just across the internet in general. They begin playing as soon as you load a page or (if they're more deviously implemented) when you start scrolling through a page. Automatic video play is a feature that, while nice to have when it's surfacing content that's related to your interests, can be pretty annoying. Autoplay videos can be harmful, too, exposing you to violent, offensive, or otherwise unwanted content that you shouldn't have to see by default. Whether you just want to put an end to autoplay videos on social media platforms or are looking for a more comprehensive fix, we've got some tips. Keep in mind that you'll need to adjust... |
| The Pentagon says Microsoft should still get its $10B JEDI contract following an investigation Posted: 04 Sep 2020 01:15 PM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Following an investigation by the Pentagon, the Department of Defense says it is standing by its decision to award a $10 billion cloud computing contract to Microsoft, not Amazon, the latest in an ongoing legal battle over the lucrative infrastructure project. On Friday, the Department of Defense said in a statement that it had completed its investigation into the awarding of the Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure (JEDI) contract, an investigation it pursued to determine whether there were discrepancies in the procurement process. The Defense Department said it had "determined that Microsoft's proposal continues to represent the best value to the Government," adding that "contract performance will not begin immediately." That's... |
| Read Apple’s commitment to freedom of expression that doesn’t mention China Posted: 04 Sep 2020 01:10 PM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge On Friday, Apple published a new human rights policy committing to "freedom of information and expression" after facing years of criticism over the company's willingness to follow mainland China's censorship laws. As first reported by the Financial Times on Friday, Apple's four-page policy document commits to "respecting the human rights of everyone whose lives we touch — including our employees, suppliers, contractors, and customers." But it does not cite any particular country, like China, where the company has been asked to ban apps that allow users to circumvent censorship before. According to Apple's policy document (PDF), this approach is based on the United Nation's Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. |
| T-Mobile details its plan to give free internet to 10 million students at home Posted: 04 Sep 2020 12:38 PM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Last year, T-Mobile announced a plan to provide 10 million low-income households free broadband internet to close what then-CEO John Legere called "the homework gap," pitching it as one of the reasons that the company should be allowed to merge with Sprint. The company has now revealed that it has allocated $10.7 billion for that "Project 10Million" program over the next decade, with the goal of making it available to K-12 students who participate in the national school lunch program for low-income families. "Even before the pandemic, more than 9 million of America's 56 million school-age kids did not have access to reliable internet, and could not complete after-school assignments," the company said in a news release, suggesting that... |
| Trump administration issues directive aimed at enhancing cybersecurity in space Posted: 04 Sep 2020 11:10 AM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Today, the Trump administration released its fifth Space Policy Directive, this one designed to come up with a list of best practices for the space industry on how to protect their spacecraft from cyber threats. The goal is to encourage the government and space industry to create their space vehicles with cybersecurity plans in place, incorporating tools like encryption software and other protections when designing, building, and operating their vehicles. Senior administration officials, speaking on background, claimed that focusing on cybersecurity in space is key right now, as there are growing threats to space hardware from foreign adversaries. "These threats are diverse and complex, and robust public-private cooperation to enhance... |
