News::The PlayStation VR includes a demo disc loaded with games

PlayStation VR is expensive enough by itself, so you probably don't relish the idea of spending more just to get a taste of what the PS4 headset is like. Thankfully, you won't have to. Sony has revealed that PSVR's accompanying demo disc will include samples of eight games. A handful are definitely lighter releases that serve more as showcases (PlayStation VR Worlds most notably), but there are also tasters of games you might well buy later. You can play demos for Battlezone, Driveclub VR, the ubiquitous VR sampler EVE: Valkyrie and RIGS: Mechanized Combat League, among others.

News::Dolphin emulator now supports every GameCube game

The open-source Dolphin emulator has been able to run nearly every GameCube title since 2009, but one title has stumped it -- Star Wars: The Clone Wars. It turns out that the 14-year-old game used some pretty clever memory tricks to fool software pirates. However, the team says it finally cracked the game with a new emulator core, which had the added benefit of making every other GameCube title more stable.

With the new Hot Wheels AI set, toy autos get a bit of a boost -- not just in speed, but in intelligence. Now you can race against a computer in the real world, right there on your living room rug.
