Nintendo 3DS: Video Review

By

Nintendo 3DS Nintendo attempts to build-upon the success of the DS family of portable consoles with the new 3DS which adds glasses-free 3D to the mix. The 3DS adds a little bulk when compared to the DS to make room for the new 3D cameras and the upper stereoscopic 3D display. If playing in three-dimensions is not your thing a built-in 3D depth slider allows you to adjust the intensity of the effect. Other notable features include the new “circle pad” analog control, adjustable stylus, and built-in motion and gyro sensors. Check out our video review to hear more about the 3DS and its launch titles from our gaming expect Ryan Fleming.

Sony INZONE H3 gaming headphones wired for Prime Big Deal Days

As far as Prime Big Deal Days discounts go, this next one on Sony's Official INZONE H3 gaming headphones is pretty shocking. Why? It's 52% off which is a huge discount anyway, but Sony's gear rarely goes on sale. If you want immersive gaming via a wired connection, spatial surround, low-latency audio, and a snug fit, these headphones are right for you. Normally $100, they're on sale today for just $48. It's only a limited-time deal, though, which means it could go away at any time. Don't wait.

 
Why shop this Sony INZONE H3 gaming headphones deal for Prime Big Deal Days?
We've covered Sony's INZONE gaming headsets before, as well as the Sony INZONE gaming earbuds and one thing we've certainly taken away from these products is they are standouts in their class. You get to experience immersive 360-degree spatial sound while playing. You benefit from crystal-clear communication thanks to the headset with a flip-to-mute mic. Plus, there's virtually no latency, if at all, thanks to the 3.5mm wired connection.

Not only has Astro Bot shot its way up to become one of the best PlayStation 5 games, but it is also in the conversation for the best 3D platformer among the likes of Mario. Besides the great graphics, tight platforming, and creative levels and powers, there are tons of things to collect in each world. Bots are the most common, and puzzle pieces are a bit more rare, but it is the secret exits that will have you scratching your head. There are only 10 of these in the entire game, with two per nebula. If you want to collect every Trophy, you will need to track them all down, so we'll point you in the right direction of every secret exit.
All secret exits in Astro Bot
As mentioned, there are 10 secret exits divided between each of the game's five nebulas. We'll go through each to show you where they are hidden.
Az-Tech Trail secret exit

As you progress with the snake gloves in this level, you will come to this room, where you need to use them to yank a red square out of the wall to spawn a bug you can use as a bounce pad to reach the upper area. Before you do, use it to punch all four of the torches on this wall to open it up and reveal the exit.
