Your Switch 2 will happily use a webcam without USB-C, and I feel like Nintendo should be telling you that

June 6, 2025 • By phil.hayton@futurenet.com (Phil Hayton) , Phil Hayton

The Nintendo Switch 2 supports standard USB-A webcams when used in docked mode, despite Nintendo's emphasis on using USB-C cameras. This means users can plug USB-A accessories into the docking station without needing an adapter. However, compatibility laws still apply, and not all USB-A webcams will work with the Switch 2. Some compatible options include the Logitech C920 and Logitech StreamCam. Nintendo's guidance may be misleading, as it implies that only USB-C cameras are compatible, but this is not the case. Users can explore third-party options or dedicated Switch 2 cameras, but it's essential to check compatibility before making a purchase.

This radical suggestion is simplifying my digital security
This radical suggestion is simplifying my digital security

June 6, 2025 • By Alaina Yee

A recent session at the 2025 RSAC Conference discussed home network security, highlighting the importance of maintenance for all users, not just high-profile targets. The presenter, Jennifer Minella, suggested improving security by removing devices altogether, rather than adding more layers of technology. This approach may seem counterintuitive for tech enthusiasts, but it can simplify maintenance and reduce the risk of security breaches. The author, Alaina Yee, tried this philosophy and removed about 25% of their devices, either by selling, donating, or recycling them. They also took some devices offline that were barely used. This process made them feel "lighter" and more free, allowing them to focus on other projects. Yee recommends asking three questions about each device: 1. Do I use it regularly? 2. Does it need to be online? 3. Can I replace it with something else? By answering these questions, users can determine which devices to keep, remove, or take offline, ultimately improving their home network security and reducing maintenance time.

VR gaming isn’t dead yet! Valve’s Deckard headset is our last hope
VR gaming isn’t dead yet! Valve’s Deckard headset is our last hope

June 6, 2025 • By Chris Hoffman

The VR gaming industry is struggling in 2025, with Meta, the leading company in the market, neglecting VR gaming in pursuit of the metaverse. Meta's Quest platform is the most popular, but the company is prioritizing its "Horizon Worlds" experiences over games, leading to declining sales for VR game developers. Many developers are losing faith in VR as a gaming market, and some are even saying that Meta is no longer interested in being a gaming platform. Valve, the company behind the Steam Deck, is rumored to be working on a new VR headset called Project Deckard, which could potentially revitalize the VR gaming industry. Valve has a proven track record of delivering high-quality gaming hardware and software, and its Steam platform could provide a much-needed boost to VR game development. The future of VR gaming looks uncertain, but if Valve can deliver a high-end VR headset with a standalone gaming experience, it could help to revive the industry. With Meta's neglect of VR gaming and the lack of interest from other companies, Valve has a massive opportunity to fill the gap and provide a sustainable platform for VR game developers.

AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB Review: Not Good
AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB Review: Not Good

June 6, 2025 • By Steven Walton

AMD's new Radeon 9060 XT offers impressive performance for a mainstream GPU, but the company's decision to release two versions - one with 8GB of VRAM and another with 16GB - is puzzling. The 8GB model is inadequate for modern gaming, with many games already pushing past the limits of 8GB. Benchmarks show significant performance gaps between the two models, with the 16GB version outperforming the 8GB version in various games. The 8GB model's performance deteriorates further when paired with older CPUs and slower system memory. AMD's move is seen as anti-consumer, and the company is criticized for contributing to the degradation of gaming standards by releasing an 8GB graphics card in 2025. The article advises avoiding the 8GB versions of the 5060 Ti and 9060 XT, unless they can be purchased for under $200.

Death Stranding 2 hands-on: An emphasis on combat and vehicles feels like an evolution of Metal Gear Solid 5, while continuing to push the first game's in-depth hiking physicality

June 6, 2025 • By Simon Parkin

Hideo Kojima's new game, Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, is set to release on June 26, 2025, for the PS5. The game is a sequel to the 2019 title Death Stranding, which was widely considered one of the strangest mainstream videogames at the time of its release. Kojima has stated that the first game was "weird" and that he has taken a different approach with the sequel. The game follows the story of Sam Porter Bridges, a courier who must navigate a post-apocalyptic world and reconnect isolated communities. The game features a new focus on combat, with players able to use vehicles and build structures to aid in their missions. The game also explores themes of grief, loss, and the importance of human connection in a world where technology has enabled people to become increasingly isolated. Kojima has stated that he was inspired by the COVID-19 pandemic and the way it changed the way people interact with each other. He has also said that he wants the game to be a cautionary tale about the risks of relying too heavily on digital connectedness. The game features a number of celebrity cameos, including Léa Seydoux and Norman Reedus, and has a strong focus on storytelling and character development. The game's development team, Kojima Productions, is relatively small, with around 150 people working on the project. Kojima has stated that he prefers to keep his team small, as it allows for a more personal and intimate approach to game development. The game is expected to provide at least 70 hours of gameplay, and features a number of innovative online features that allow players to collaborate and interact with each other in new and interesting ways.
