Hey welcome to Zach's Tech Turf, and Weekly Download episode number 38, which is my weekly
tech and PC gaming news series.
Today, I'm gonna be playing some PlayerUnknown Battlegrounds while I give you this news,
and I'm gonna be sipping on a dark roast coffee I think.
Make sure you guys let me know in the comment section what you're sipping on, and also,
check out my new clothing sponsor MainFrame for dope shirts like this.
Let's get into it!
To start off the tech news, Apple has finally, and I mean finally announced their update
to their desktop computer the Mac Pro.
Mac Pro users have desperatly waiting for an upgrade to their 3 year old machines, I'm
not one of them by the way, and they finally have it.
Apple announced the specs of 2 versions of the new Mac Pro which will cost 3,000 and
4,000 dollars.
The updates obviously include better CPU's and GPU's, but nothing was mentioned about
USB C nor Thunderbolt 3, which is a huge disappointment.
The company also addressed the lack of updates to their desktop, claiming that their percentage
of customers using the Mac Pro is in the single digits, which makes a lot of sense.
In even more Apple news, in addition to the Mac Pro, they've announced that they are
creating their own GPU.
We all know how much Apple likes to keep everything in house, but already having their own CPU's,
wireless cards, storage controllers, etc, so the GPU was bound to happen.
Right now the iPhone 7 is rocking the PowerVR A10 fusion chip and that will probably be
the last of that.
They plan on building their own in house GPU completely from scratch and I'm honestly
looking forward to it.
We can see just how smoothly everything runs when the software and hardware are made from
the same company, so the GPU will only improve performance even more.
Alright enough about Apple, let's get into some actual PC news, specifically with Netflix.
Netflix has just added the download option for Windows 10 devices include desktop PC's.
Previously the download option was only available on Android and iOS phones, but now with Windows
10, I'm sure a lot of users will be happy.
Just make sure you open up your store page and download the updates, the whole updating
process in the Windows store isn't the best at the moment.
And to wrap up the tech news, I hope you guys didn't miss out on the Google Maps April
Fools Joke this week.
When you opened up the Maps app on your phone, you were greeted by a Ms Pacman logo that
you could click and then play Ms Pacman.
It transported you to a random location within Maps and you could play Ms Pacman right on
top of it.
It was pretty cool and a huge surprise and I absolutely love when companies do weird
and cool stuff like this.
It's no longer available so like I said, I hope you guys didn't miss out on this.
To start off PC gaming news, Destiny 2 is freaking coming to the PC.
Oh.
My.
God.
Do I really need to say more about this?
I'm so excited for this because Destiny is one of only 2 games that made me buy a
console, Madden was the other, and BUngie released the first trailer and announcement
this week.
We don't know too much outside of the trailer at this point, but they said that a gameplay
reveal is set for May 18th and a summer beta for those that preorder will be happening.
You can 1,000% count me in for that.
I can't wait.
There was a ton of news this week about Zelda Breath of the Wild being played in 4k on a
PC.
This was made possible with the Cemu emulator and a very powerful PC, and you can still
go watch that now if you haven't.
Zelda obviously looks far superior compared to any Nintendo device and it only has fans
drooling and wishing that this was actually not an emulator.
I'm not big on emulating so I don't know too much more about this, but if you guys
are into this kinda thing make sure you let me know.
In VR news, which I actually haven't talked about in a while, the HTC Vive is bringing
a software/gaming subscription service.
For just a few bucks a month you'll have full access to over 50 apps that are running
with the service to start, and it's a great way to bring more VR possibilities to users.
It's a really good sign that developers are on board for this because it allows users
to experience more of the VR world and spread this awesome technology.
I'll get my hands on this one day, hopefully.
Next up the realistic modern military FPS Squad is having another free weekend this
week.
Squad is a bit more realistic than more online FPS, and I still haven't tried this out
for myself yet.
They are also updating the game with its first significant dive into urban combat and it
looks pretty baller.
I'm gonna try this game out and let you know what I think, probably over on Twitter,
so make sure you're following me over there @ZachsTechTurf, and maybe we can play together
this weekend.
And finally to wrap up PC gaming news, Rocket League is coming with a new DLC that looks
about as baller as it gets.
It's the Fate of the Furious DLC which is obviously promoting the new Fast and Furious
movie coming out on April 18th.
I'm actually a huge fanboy of the movies and I'm pretty stoked for the DLC.
This includes Dom Toretto's Dodge Ice charger from the movie and a few other items.
Well that wraps up Weekly Download episode number 38.
