In addition to some notable hires in the AR space, Tim Cook seems to wax poetic about the potential of AR every single time the topic comes up. While it remains to be seen if Apple's interest in AR will ultimately manifest in a pair of AR-powered glasses or perhaps an iPhone with some intriguing built-in AR capabilities, it's probably only a matter of time before we see what Apple's engineers and researchers have been cooking up over at 1 Inifinte Loop.

Right from the very start it was clear that Activision's Call of Duty franchise had taken a bit of a wrong turn with Infinite Warfare.

Now, Activision is admitting what we all knew: Infinite Warfare was a misstep. Continue reading...

This is a problem for anyone who used to like facts or news or information, because you'll probably know that the Bowling Green Massacre didn't exist and can't be the justification for anything except dank memes.
