There's a moment in the latest MindsEye trailer, released today alongside the news of its midsummer release date, that feels distinctly familiar. As some wonderfully billowy explosions roar, muscle cars tear through traffic and machine guns thunder on, a helicopter drops low over the action, sun setting melodramatically in the background. And the reflection of a city, searingly sharp above more racing cars and scorched tarmac, shines off the side of its ultra-polished fuselage. This is the future of video games, that reflection almost seems to declare. Only, it's the future as imagined by 2013, where the height of the craft remains a sense of bombast, polish, and ultra-fidelity - and crucially, a question of how accurately it can recreate another craft, in cinema. In other words: a world where the future looked like Grand Theft Auto.

After Netflix's tentative first few years in games - which has seen it grow its mobile library, acquire studios, and dabble in triple-A development before dramatically changing course - the streamer's new gaming boss, Alain Tascan, has laid out the company's latest vision. This, he says, is less about the console model and more about phone-controlled party game.

We've received a continuous stream of reports over the last few months suggesting there's a problem with PlayStation 5: VRR support has an issue where game performance can be interrupted by a continuous, obvious stutter that manifests every eight seconds. Various theories have been shared and discussed online, covering a range of displays and firmwares but after spending some time investigating the problem, we can confirm it is a real problem, impacting both PS5 and Pro consoles - and based on our tests, it will impact any VRR-compatible display.

Right now, the best gaming monitor you can get is probably a QD-OLED 4K 240Hz model from MSI, Dell or Asus. Some compelling options using third-gen Samsung QD-OLED panels arrived last year in a 32-inch form factor, and now we're seeing the same specs in a more compact 27-inch design.
