In 2001 a green-armored soldier woke up on a mysterious ring and changed everything for console shooters. Twenty-five years later Halo Studios has torn that entire campaign down to the studs and rebuilt it in Unreal Engine 5. Campaign Evolved is not a simple polish pass. Every corridor, every beach, every Forerunner structure has been constructed again from scratch. Side-by-side footage now circulating makes the gap impossible to ignore.
Matty Benedetto keeps finding new ways to turn everyday habits into elaborate projects. This time the Vermont designer behind Unnecessary Inventions has built a portable snack safe that stays shut until its owner logs a set number of steps. The idea is simple enough. Load a treat, dial in the calorie count, close the lid, and start walking. Only after the counter hits zero does the door release.
InnoView put together a 15.6-inch portable monitor, priced at $99.99 (was $160), that aims to solve the constant space problem for people who work or create away from a desk. This model adds a full HD touchscreen, a built-in stand, and a protective sleeve so the whole package stays useful without adding much bulk to a bag.
Saturday afternoon traffic on Columbia Pike near Fairland Road in Silver Spring, Maryland, turned nasty in an instant. At 1:43 p.m. on July 18, Nation Capital Movers’ moving truck lost control and collided with a line of vehicles. The accident set off a chain reaction crash that involved at least ten cars and trucks. Among the ruins was a Tesla Cybertruck that no longer seemed like a complete vehicle to say the least.
Kodak just handed film beginners a camera they can actually stick in a jeans pocket without second thoughts. This little plastic box called the EC35 costs thirty-five dollars and works with any standard roll of 35mm film. Reto Project builds it under the Kodak name, and the whole point is simple: give people who have never touched film something that feels as easy as the disposable cameras they grew up seeing at drugstores, only this one lasts longer than a single roll.
