AOC unveiled its AGON 3 Series of curved gaming displays at GamesCom last year, catering to both G-Sync and FreeSync users. Tentative release windows ran a little over schedule, but the wait is almost over as AOC reveals pricing and availability for the AG273QCX and AG273QCG. While both the AGON AG273QCX and AG273QCG offer 1440p resolution, DisplayHDR 400 and a fast 1ms response time, there are some differences to watch out for. First of all, the AG273QCX sports AMD’s FreeSync 2 technology in its 144Hz VA panel. This is contrasted by the AG273QCG’s G-Sync 165Hz TN panel, which inevitably helped AOC net the Red Dot Design Award 2018. Behind the RGB AGON Game Lights and “3-sides-frameless” 1800R curvature screen, there are a range of features that both monitors share within the software. Game Color, Game Modes and Shadow Control offer users a greater level control over the saturation, profiles built for different genres and shadows, while Dial Point places an indicator in the centre of the screen for first person shooters. A built-in Frame Counter will help users track their in-game frames-per-second, and Flicker Free Technology has been implemented to help reduce eye strain. The AGON AG273QCG was originally meant to hit shelves in November, 2018, shortly followed by the AG273QCX in December; however the new release window doesn’t place the displays too far into the future. No specific date was put in place, but both the AG273QCX ...

It’s a little surreal to be stepping back into the world of Eden Tomorrow. I first tried this new VR adventure game back at GamesCom 2015. Its depiction of an alien planet enraptured me. It focused on discovery just as much as it did danger. But it’s been four years since then. You might think the magic had faded by now. Today’s new demo suggests it hasn’t. Eden Tomorrow is shaping up to be the closest thing we’ll get to a Robinson: The Journey sequel. But, with any luck, it’ll be even more than that. This seems to be a game that isn’t afraid to, well, make you afraid. The 20-minute gameplay slice available now on PSVR is book ended by two close encounters with an alien dragon, and there’s a springy jump scare towards the end that won’t please those with a fear of needles. But its willingness to alarm contributes to its intrepid spirit. This feels like Robinson but perhaps without the training wheels, a game that really wants to make you feel on edge. Within minutes of starting, I’m frozen on the spot by the steely glare of a monster that fancies me for its lunch, helplessly (and embarrassingly) shrieking a little when it takes a snap. Later on I’ve got my back against the wall as I traverse a bottomless canyon, and I’m throwing my head from side-to-side as I balance over beams. These were dangers we didn’t see until the last hour of Crytek’s VR adventure all introduced in the game’s opening. It’s darker, too. There’s a lot more ...
