This Logitech gaming mouse concept was designed specifically for Google Stadia!

As we enter a new era of ‘everywhere gaming’, French designer Jean-François Bozec decided it was best if gaming gear began evolving to reflect that fact. Meet the Logitech G, a Stadia-ready gaming mouse concept that fuses Logitech’s gaming-series design language with Google’s crisp, clean DNA. The Logitech G is an ambidextrous gaming mouse (perhaps the first of its kind) that comes outfitted with all the extraneous trigger buttons you need, and even throws in a Google Assistant button right beneath the scroll wheel.

Just like Google’s Stadia controller, the Logitech G works using WiFi (with a dedicated WiFi button on its base) for seamless, low-latency gaming across any kind of gaming device. A MicroUSB port on the front allows you to supply power when in dire need (or you could just connect it to your PC as a wired peripheral controller). The ambidextrous design is an interesting one, because of the way it lays out buttons on the side of the controller for more nuanced gameplay. That being said, they’re positioned in an interesting mirrored way that lets you use either your thumb or your ring and pinky finger to trigger them during gameplay. The mouse comes in Stadia’s classic controller-color variants, with a black offering, and a stormtrooper-esque white variant with black buttons. Too bad it’s a concept, though!

AMD reveals G-Series X embedded chips, drops a little ARM-powered bombshell

AMD reveals G Series embedded chips, drops an ARMpowered bombshell in the process

We're no strangers to AMD's embedded processors, designed for specialist applications such as casino gaming and dashboard infotainment systems. But this latest announcement of an updated G-Series processor reveals something totally unexpected. It's not just that the chip contains four Jaguar cores of PlayStation 4 fame, or that it also includes a Radeon 8000 GPU and I/O module on a single piece of silicon -- although that's all interesting enough. The key thing is actually the "X" in the lower right corner of the logo, which signifies that this is an x86 chip of the type we'd normally expect from AMD. The question is this: Why bother even mentioning the "X" when everyone knows AMD is an x86 stalwart already? Read on and we'll explain its true significance.

Logitech G710+ gaming keyboard boasts quiet, glowing, speed-typing

Logitech unveils G710 gaming keyboard boasts quiet, glowing, speedtyping

Is that old pro-gaming keyboard you have finally breaking down from years of use, its blue backlight fading to teal (or worse) as the days go on? Are you ready to spend over $100 to get back in the game? Then you, ideal consumer, sound like a good match for Logitech's newest gaming keyboard, the G710+. "Plus what?" you ask? Well, it's a standard G-series performance keyboard from Logitetch, plus a white LED backlight, anti-ghosting tech, under-key dampening to help with all the clickety-clacketing, and a promised 50-million keystroke life span. A set of "G-keys" along the left side allows for assignable macros and scripts, should you need to suddenly maximize your APM mid-StarCraft 2 match (and let's be honest, you've totally been there) -- sadly, the G710+ only works with Windows Vista and up, so you'll have to maximize those actions exclusively on a PC for now.

The Logitech G710+ arrives at retail in the US this October for $150, and heads to Europe starting in December at an undetermined price -- check after the break for full specs and a quick demo video.

Future Panasonic G camera’s 72Mbps movie-making prowess teased through speedy drama (video)

Future Panasonic G camera's 72Mbps moviemaking prowess teased through speedy drama video

If Panasonic didn't have attention from movie producers before, it just might as of this week. Joining the quickly developing tradition of camera makers producing elaborate short movies as technology demos, the company has let cinematographer Philip Bloom wield (and tease) a "brand new G camera" to record Genesis, a fast-paced mini-drama showing a man's race to meet his love before it's too late. While Bloom can't talk much about the hardware in question until the 17th, he's allowed to confirm that the upcoming Micro Four Thirds body relies on a "superb" 72Mbps All-I codec for video -- letting it capture a sprint through the streets without the compression artifacts of the AVCHD format used by most mirrorless cameras. Panasonic's upcoming shooter also touts "much improved" results in the dark, Bloom says. It all sounds very tempting, especially if it turns out that Panasonic's inadvertent leaks are for the same camera we see in action here. The full movie is available after the break, and Bloom has the behind-the-scenes details at the source link.
