A Tech Affair episode 204: Chip festival at Computex, Steam Deck competitors, "Godzilla x Kong", "Killer Klowns From Outer Space: The Game"
Intel and AMD are emulating Apple with desktop and laptop chips. The Steam Deck has new competition. "Godzilla x Kong" is simple action fun and "Killer Klowns From Outer Space The Game" is the latest horror multiplayer addition.
Intel, AMD and co. presented their latest chips at the Computex tech fair in Taiwan. More AI, more efficiency, more performance: the race for the future of chips is in full swing. We discuss TOPS and flops. At the same trade fair, ASUS, MSI and Zotac presented gaming handhelds. We are sceptical as to whether any of them can hold a candle to the Steam Deck.
In contrast, "Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire" makes us almost perfectly happy. The action blockbuster delivers what it promises: huge monsters, a crazy story and a whole lot of destruction.
Monsters can also be found in our game tip. "Killer Klowns From Outer Space: The Game" is an asymmetrical multiplayer game that unleashes murderous alien clowns on humans. It is based on the cult horror film of the same name from the 80s.
"Terminal 8" is short and quirky. You are trapped in a train compartment and try to escape. In the process, you have to overcome all kinds of creepy anomalies.

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.
