A Tech Affair episode 148: Google I/O, ROG Ally and "Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom"

At the Google I/O developer conference, there was a first glimpse of the future of Google Search. At the same time, three new Android devices were presented. We also played the new "Zelda".

After it seemed as if Google was sleeping through the AI race, the company presented some promising approaches at its own developer conference. At Google I/O, however, there was not only the future of the largest search engine on show, but also three new devices were presented - one of which can be folded and another that can be set up.

One device that we have already been able to test extensively is the ROG Ally, a gaming handheld from Asus. The Steam Deck competitor promises a lot, but still leaves a lot to be desired.

This also applies to the Apple TV Plus series "Silo". A 150-storey shelter is the last refuge in a destroyed, dystopian world - or so it seems; some of the protagonists are sceptical. We are also sceptical as to whether the series can keep up the tension for ten episodes.

We can undoubtedly recommend "The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom". There is more to discover in this game than ever before. The only downside is the mediocre performance of the Nintendo Switch.

Being the game and gadget geek that I am, working at digitec and Galaxus makes me feel like a kid in a candy shop – but it does take its toll on my wallet. I enjoy tinkering with my PC in Tim Taylor fashion and talking about games on my podcast http://www.onemorelevel.ch. To satisfy my need for speed, I get on my full suspension mountain bike and set out to find some nice trails. My thirst for culture is quenched by deep conversations over a couple of cold ones at the mostly frustrating games of FC Winterthur.
