Visual Concepts just laid out the year-over-year on-court changes for NBA 2K27, from a five-meter Takeover rebuild to the death of the dice-roll ankle breaker. The biggest single change in NBA 2K27 isn’t a new shot or a new animation — it’s the rebuilt Takeover system. Gameplay Director Mike Wang’s team has split Takeover across five separate meters tied to specific on-court skills, with 24 unlockable Abilities that can fire off multiple at once when a player is performing across the board. Wang described that ability to chain Takeovers as an “uber demigod” state on the court. Each NBA 2K27 Takeover — Shooting, Finishing, Playmaking, Defense, and Rebounding — gets its own HUD bar that moves through six stages in real time: Frozen, Cold, Neutral, Warm, Hot, and Takeover. A full loadout is one Ability per discipline plus a universal Hydration Hero slot, so players can mix and match instead of running a single global Takeover. Each Ability runs on it...

2K has finally set the new NBA 2K27 for a worldwide release on September 4, 2026, with the Standard Edition available for pre-order for Php2,920 on Steam. Sony has not yet listed a PS5 PH price (2K’s official PS5 price is $69.99 / $99.99 / $149.99 USD), but it should close to the direct conversion of USD. Deluxe and Ultra follow at Php3,950 and Php5,400 on Steam PH, with Ultra limited to a pre-order window that closes September 6. Visual Concepts’ largest MyCAREER overhaul in years arrives as “Fire & Concrete,” an 11-chapter story. The modern path follows a top Duke commit whose detour starts with a car accident, resumes at a recreated Rucker Park, and runs through the G League. Vince Staples voices and mocaps the cousin Cam, and appears on the soundtrack. Two players can run MyCAREER through Running Mate Trace Miller — a G League teammate with nine build templates — with AI filling in offline. A separate branch layers historically locked ...

Xiaomi is getting ready to launch an updated version of its video calling camera, and this one comes with a display built directly into the unit. The company has made big changes compared to last year’s model. The most obvious upgrade is the 3.97-inch colour screen on the front. It has a 480 x 800 pixel resolution display, and the buttons next to it are now bigger and easier to press. You can make video calls in three different ways. You can wave your hand, push a button, or set the camera to connect automatically. The calls work between the camera and a phone, or between two cameras. For sound, the device uses two microphones and a decent-sized speaker. There is also a noise reduction feature that helps cut down on background chatter, so the person on the other end can hear you more clearly. The camera itself has an 8MP sensor that can shoot video in 4K quality, which is 3840 by 2160 pixels. It can also spin around a full 360 degrees and tilt up to 30 degrees...

Godox has just released a new pocket-sized photo printer called the Godox P100 . It lets you print snapshots straight from your phone, and it adds a protective layer to each photo as part of the printing process. The Godox P100 is small and light enough to take anywhere. It weighs about as much as a smartphone and measures roughly the size of a thick portable charger. The rounded edges make it easy to hold, and it can slide into most bags without any hassle. Charging happens through a USB-C port, and it works with common phone chargers that output 5V and 2A. On the inside, the printer uses dye-sublimation technology, which is known for producing rich and accurate colors. It prints at 300 dpi and can handle millions of color shades. The paper and ink ribbon come together in one cartridge, so replacing them is simple. You just open a side panel and swap in a new one. Each print gives you a photo that measures 86 by 53 mm, with a slightly larger paper size around it. What...

The lower chamber of Congress has given its final approval to a measure that would establish a dedicated government office to handle the Philippines’ digital defense. House Bill No. 9605, formally titled the “ National Cybersecurity and Critical Information Infrastructure Protection Act of 2026 ,” passed its third reading on August 12. The approval came just two weeks after the second regular session of the 20th Congress began. The proposal, which the Legislative-Executive Development Advisory Council considers a top priority, will now move to the Senate for further action. If enacted, the National Cybersecurity Agency, or NCSA, would function under the Office of the President. It would take the lead in setting policies, coordinating responses to online threats, and enforcing security measures across government and key industries. The agency would absorb the cybersecurity division of the Department of Information and Communications Technology , includ...
