Epic Games launched the new season of hit video game “Fortnite” on Thursday, pitting Marvel super heroes against Fantastic Four-villain Galactus in the first update to exclude iPhone and iPad users due to a legal fight with Apple Inc (AAPL.O).

Many users took to Twitter to complain about missing out on an otherwise exciting event for the global gaming community, while some raved about the latest version.

“So sad for my son who is an avid and brilliant fortnite iPad player. I was hoping things would be resolved,” @MellieTheMinx1 tweeted.

Apple has removed the game from its App Store after Epic Games challenged the company’s policy of taking a cut of purchases made inside the app by allowing users to pay Epic directly at a cheaper price.

Dubbed “Nexus War”, the new version features Marvel characters including Thor, Iron Man, She-Hulk, Storm and Doctor Doom.

“This is absolutely insane,” Tyler Blevins said as he retweeted a trailer video of the game. Known to millions as “Ninja”, Blevins is one of the most-followed computer gamers globally.

“Fortnite” and its early rival, Tencent-backed “PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds” (PUBG), popularized an arena-style battle royale survival concept where 100 gamers are dropped onto an island to fight each other to the death.

“Fortnite,” which has attracted more than 350 million players globally, is especially popular among younger gamers and has become one of the few lifelines to the outside world for kids trapped at home during the coronavirus pandemic.

Epic on Wednesday reiterated that it will not remove the direct payment feature, a move that meant iPhone users will not receive the latest version of “Fortnite”.

• RAM: You can play games on mobile with 1GB RAM too but isn't it al about the gaming experience? There are phones with 16GB RAM in the market so choose wisely which one is best for you considering the prices and other specifications.
• Display: Talking about the display, you need to find your own preferences. Of course, we want a mobile that has great display quality so that your gaming experience can be movie-like but the size depends on your preference and how do you like it on your hands. 
• Chipset: Now, most people do not look in this field but the powerful the performance, the better the gaming experience will be. You can look for Qualcomm Snapdragon, Exynos, and others.

Smartphone makers getting into the notebook business seems to have become a trend in the last couple of years and we aren't complaining. With bigger competition, come wider choice and lower prices for consumers. And Xiaomi's sub-brand Redmi wants to get into that growing gaming notebook segment too.

The company just teased its Redmi G gaming laptop is coming on August 14 and the promo posters look promising. The screen has minimal bezels giving the laptop that premium, modern look., As a result the webcam has been moved to the bottom bezel.

In its Weibo post, the company promises proper cooling solution and great performance while people familiar with the matter believe that the device will be powered by the Core i5-10200H and Core i5-10300H processors. It won't be long before we know what else the Redmi G has in store for us.

Most of the people, while setting up a gaming PC, tend to prioritize the hardware and fill their computer case with expensive hardware. Besides the hardware, peripherals like keyboards and mouse are given more emphasis even though the average keyboard and mouse will do for most people. Monitors, on the other hand, are most important yet most bypassed part while setting up a gaming PC. What fun will it be if your display won’t have the specs that won’t augment your expensive hardware?

As the display or monitor shows your actions, moves, enemies and your entire game; it should obviously be considered cautiously while setting up a gaming PC. The things that should be considered while buying a Gaming monitor are:

Resolution

Resolution is the most important aspect to look for while buying a gaming monitor. Higher the resolution- higher the number of pixels, clearer the images and superior will be your gaming experience. The gaming monitors come in 3 resolutions- 1080p, 1440p and 2160p. Considering the hardware and GPU limitations 1440p can be regarded as the most suitable resolution for enhancing your gaming experience with inexpensive hardware. But, if you have advanced hardware and GPU, then you can go for 2160p resolution.

Refresh Rate

Refresh rate, simply, is the number of times the image or frame in your screen is refreshed within 1 second. A monitor with 60 Hz refresh rate will be able to refresh the image on the screen up to 60 times per second. Higher the refresh rate, smoother and less choppy images will be formed. Generally, for gaming purpose, the refresh rate should be at least 75Hz for smoother gameplay.

Response Time

Response time is the speed at which a single pixel on the screen can change its color. Lower the response time, better will be the gaming experience. If response time is higher, it will create ‘motion blur’ effect. For gaming, monitor with response time less than 8ms should be considered.

Panel Type

Basically, there are 3 different types of panels each with their own set of strengths and weaknesses- TN, VA and IPS. TN is the cheapest and offers the lowest response time though its visual quality and viewing angles are relatively not so impressive. VA panels offer best viewing angles and have the superior visual quality to TN panels; however, its response time is higher and is a bit pricey. Amongst all, IPS panels are regarded as best panels but most expensive. They have the best visual effects and contrast but have about 4ms response time which is higher than TN panel. If your budget supports, IPS panels are best for consideration or else, TN panels with their lowest response time will also do.

G-sync or Freesync

NVIDIA’s G-Sync and AMD’s Freesync are the technologies that aim to eliminate the screen tearing (a graphics distortion where multiple frames are displayed in a single screen draw that occurs when graphics processor is out of sync with the display). They help your monitor to refresh at a rate that matches your graphics card. However, you cannot use AMD’s Freesync technology with NVIDIA’s graphics card and NVIDIA’s G-Sync technology with AMD’s graphics card. Both technologies are good and you can choose among these relying upon your budget or the video card of your choice.
