A Close Look At The New SteelSeries Rival 600: A Better Gaming Mouse

The Rival 600 is the latest gaming mouse from SteelSeries, and it sports a few features that make it stand out from other mice. First off, it has three side buttons whereas most gaming mice only have two. On top of that, the buttons are positioned in an ergonomic fashion that makes them easy to actuate with your thumb. The Rival 600’s weight is also adjustable; the side grips pop out easily where you can insert up to eight 4g weights (four on either side). In addition to firm left/right clicks and the accurate TrueMove3 optical sensor, the Rival 600 has full range RGB lighting (if you’re into that sort of thing). In the gallery above, we walk through what the mouse offers and look at it from all different angles.

It’s available now and carries a suggested retail price of $80 USD / £80 GBP.

PSN Is Down Right Now At Least Partially

It appears the PlayStation Network is running into some problems right now. The official PlayStation Network Service Status page shows that basically all of PSN’s services are experiencing outages right now. As always, your mileage may vary, but for now it seems as if the issues are widespread across PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3, among other platforms.

It’s been tough sledding for PSN of late, as this partial outage comes just over a week after the network faced big server problems at the end of January.

No Caption Provided

The outage appears to be affecting many games, including Epic’s Fortnite. The developer acknowledged the issues on Twitter and directed players to Sony’s support site for more details.

People on Twitter had a lot to say about the newest PSN outage. Here are some of the tweets we saw regarding the network issues (even Chance the Rapper chimed in):

Arrow: “The Devil’s Greatest Trick” Review

Warning: Full spoilers for the episode below.

Arrow’s sixth season has been in need of a big change for several months now. The general status quo of the series isn’t connecting, and its main villain certainly hasn’t been measuring up. At long last, “The Devil’s Greatest Trick” attempted to provide the shakeup the series has been needing. Whether it will ultimately prove successful remains to be seen, but it’s a start, at least.

One thing I’ll say in this episode’s favor is that it built a sense of urgency that’s generally been lacking this season. It quickly became clear that, one way or another, things would be very different in Star City by the end of the night. Maybe Cayden James would be convinced to abandon his misguided attempt to blow up the city. Maybe a new villain would emerge to replace him. Whatever the case, it was enough to know that something new and uncertain was in the air.

Netflix Buys Sci-Fi Thriller Extinction from Universal

Netflix has acquired sci-fi thriller Extinction after Universal ditched it from its slate.

The Lizzy Caplan (Cloverfield) and Michael Pena (Ant-Man)-starring flick was due to hit theaters last month, but Universal pulled it from release without explanation last November. Netflix has subsequently confirmed to Variety that it has bought the rights to Extinction and plans to release it later this year.

The news comes in the wake of another ‘Netflix Film’ that already came pre-packaged from another studio, The Cloverfield Paradox, suggesting a strategy for the streaming service of, er, picking up the scraps.
