Mad Max meets anime in all new racing RPG Resistor

The world premier of all new racing RPG Resistor shows fans that this title is more just about racing, it's about fighting for what's right. 

The short one minute trailer that was showcased at the Future Games Show Summer Showcase gave us a first peak at what looks to be a brilliant mesh, of story, racing, Mad Max, and anime. 

Set in a dystopian world covered in sand and tarmac our protagonist Aster will have to race against the top dogs and a cast of characters who look like they've stepped straight out of an anime for entry back into the city. While the motive behind this dangerous endeavor is yet unknown Aster claims that she "has to get back into the city" and so we can only assume that this is a fight that is close to her heart. 

The racing looks like a thrilling ride that wouldn't be out of place in a Mad Max movie, with customized cars, dangerous off-roading, and of course dubious tactics, Resistor will most likely keep fans on their toes until the very end. 

Thankfully, this isn't your average racing game, with a narrative which will hopefully be immersive and purposeful Aster encounters more than her fair share of individual characters in the trailer. With an antagonist that goes heavy on the hair gel and a cybernetic grandma, Resistor looks to be full of surprises, and may well end up on our best racing games given the right execution. 

Resistor will be released October 13, 2023 on PC, PS5, Nintendo Switch and Xbox Series X|S, and you can wishlist the game on Steam now right now.

The latest Apple TV 4K test lets you watch four sports streams at once

Apple is trying something new with the latest beta version of tvOS 16.5: the option to watch up to four simultaneous streams at once. Right now it's limited to live sports streamed through the Apple TV app on the Apple TV 4K , specifically MLB Friday Night Baseball and the MLS Season Pass. A multi-view option was spotted in the tvOS software last month, but the code was hidden and not enabled. MacRumors reported that the feature would be enabled this weekend, and beta testers have since been able to use it. As yet multi-view hasn't been officially announced by Apple, but it's expected that tvOS 16.5 is going to be pushed out in its final form within the next month or so. WWDC 2023 is around the corner as well, when we should be hearing about the next major updates for Apple's various operating systems – including tvOS 17. How it works Over at 9to5Mac there's a hands-on demonstrating how the multi-view feature works, and it's pretty much as you would expe...

Garmin's new radar-equipped tail light will keep you safe on your e-bike

Garmin's Varia bike radars are some of the most popular pieces of cycling tech around – and now the company has delivered its first rearview radar to have been specially designed for some of the best e-Bikes .   Garmin's Varia range mounts to the back of your bike and broadcasts a radar signal behind you, so you can get visual and audible alerts when something's overtaking you. Even better, the new Varia eRTL615 plugs directly into most e-bikes, with no battery required. Because the catchily-named Varia eRTL615 is also a tail light, it'll also make sure you're visible to other vehicles too, promising to emit a flashing or solid light that's visible from up to a mile away in daylight. To connect Garmin's new radar tail light to your e-bike, you'll need to pick the right Garmin adapter cable (which isn't included).
