Stunt Race FX isn’t the worst tech demo, but that isn’t a compliment – Destructoid

Punching above its generational weight class The Super FX chip was a handsome feather in Nintendo’s cap, even if they very rarely wore it out on the town. A graphics support unit, the Super FX chip was a co-processor that pushed the SNES’ graphic capabilities pretty far. Games like Star Fox and Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island benefitted from the tech and were able to punch above their generational weight class. Regardless, only Yoshi’s Island doesn’t look entirely antiquated by today’s standards. While 3D graphics…

Sony’s post-match Accolades PS5 compliment system is going away

Sony’s getting rid of Accolades, a PlayStation 5 feature present since the system launched, because apparently, no one uses it (via Eurogamer).

On a PlayStation support page, Sony says Accolades will disappear this fall, and its message is actually kind of sad. “The feature hasn’t seen the level…
