He began writing about tech and gaming in 2013, and migrated from The Verge in 2023.We’ve written previously about Govee’s smart TV lights, which mimic the colors from your screen and splash them behind the TV. They’re a great and somewhat affordable way to make watching movies or playing games more fun and immersive.If there’s a main downside to most of its models, it’s that they require you to have a camera on top of your TV, which the system uses to interpret what colors the lightstrips should be to best match the video. From a usability standpoint, the camera’s limited viewing range means that it can’t see every inch of your TV clearly, and it’s also susceptible to picking up other …

Prior to Polygon, she worked at publications such as The Verge.Narrative adventure titles are getting the spotlight they deserve at GOG, where you can save on both new and old entries in the genre. We love this year’s The Crimson Diamond for its modern retreading of classic titles (even if its text parser interface is occasionally awkward). If you’d like to try your hand at cracking the case, you can currently pick it up from GOG for just $13.49 (was $14.99).Other highlights include the 30th Anniversary Collection of Myst, our favorite Peter Gabriel vehicle, which is on sale for $42.53 (was $98.93). We’re also taken by discounts on games from pre-eminent point-…

Prior to Polygon, she worked at publications such as The Verge.If you watch one movie this year that features both former CIA director William Colby and Polygon co-founder Justin McElroy, make sure it’s Polygon’s documentary on Spycraft: The Great Game.A relic of the 1990s, Spycraft: The Great Game is an FMV point-and-click adventure that places you in the shoes of a CIA recruit thrust into a plot of international intrigue in the shadow of the Cold War. Activision spent millions of dollars on the development of Spycraft, which received critical acclaim upon its launch in 1996, but is now largely forgotten. However, if you’d like to experience this game for yourself, it’s techni…

CapcomRoss Miller (he/him) is Polygon’s Senior Commerce Editor for the summer. He has nearly 20 years of experience in media and was a founding editor of The Verge.I’m a big fan of ambient lo-fi music, but sometimes I need something to wake me up — which is especially true following a three-day weekend, as many readers are probably feeling right now. And what better way to get hyped for the day/week/month ahead than with the bombastic and eclectic grooves of the Street Fighter 6 soundtrack? Right now you can get the collector’s edition vinyl set from Amazon for around $66 (was $170), a 61% discount. That’s a lot of 6s for one deal, and we wish we had something more clever to say about that, but again, it’s the first day after a three-day weekend and we only just started listen…
