Microsoft Could Be Bringing Xbox-Style Controllers to Your Phone
According to recently released research papers from Microsoft, it looks like adjustable, Xbox-style grip controllers could be used for mobile gaming in conjunction with smartphones and tablets.
As reported by Windows Central, these research documents have just been released this month, though it appears the research itself was conducted between 2012 - 2014. The key design goal for this mobile controller was "to combine a compact and convenient-to-carry form factor with the ease-of-use, control and comfort of a traditional physical controller” by using two hinged “clip-on” controller fragments that attached to the bezel of a mobile device.

PlayStation Classic’s Lineup Would Always Be Missing Some True Classics
Sony officially unveiled the 20-game lineup for its first nostalgia-fueled specialty system, the PlayStation Classic. And reaction has been...well, mixed. Anecdotally, one of the most common recurring refrains is that the list is missing some of the most seminal PlayStation releases — the Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon trilogies, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Resident Evil 2 (in addition to the included Resident Evil: Director’s Cut), and a few more.
Unfortunately, the Classic’s lineup was almost cursed from the start, in large part thanks to the nostalgia-driven culture of the entire industry.

Can CBS All Access Compete With Netflix?
On the heels of its four-year anniversary, CBS All Access ($5.99 per month) is by no means the new kid on the block when it comes to the digital streaming market, quietly existing as a hub to watch all-things CBS. Now, with the recent addition of big-budget serialized original series like Star Trek: Discovery and the upcoming reimagining of The Twilight Zone, All Access is striving to become more than just a place to watch old episodes of Blue Bloods and The Big Bang Theory. With its new approach to creating content, we thought it would be fun to review the site and see how it compares to the competition.
