Pizza Hut is giving away an Xbox One S every hour during the holiday season

Nothing goes better with a gaming marathon than some pepperoni and cheese and if you do not own an Xbox One, you will have the opportunity to get both this holiday season. Microsoft and Pizza Hut have partnered to give away a free Xbox One S every hour through December 24.

Every customer who orders the Triple Treat Box — containing two medium pizzas, bread sticks, and a giant cookie — will be given an entry code for a “chance to win an Xbox One S 500GB console and custom Pizza Hut designed controller, as well as an instant offer for $10 off select Xbox One games while supplies last.”

The controller, which you can see in the image above, features the Pizza Hut logo in its center so your friends will know you received your console with a side of marinara dipping sauce.

Also available as part of the promotion are $10 vouchers toward the purchase of “select Xbox One games.” The current listing on Microsoft’s website suggests that new games such as Gears of War 4, Forza Horizon 3, and ReCore are available as part of the promotion, as well as earlier Xbox One games like Rise of the Tomb Raider and Sunset Overdrive. Pretty much any game included in the offer will be a great way to introduce yourself to the system.

The Xbox One S is available in retail stores and online for $300, but should you not win one with your pizza, you may want to consider purchasing the original Xbox One, instead. A “name your game” bundle, containing a 500GB system as well as one game, is available on Amazon for about $250. The original Xbox One does not have a 4K Blu-ray drive or HDR, however.

God of War: Laufey

Sony gave fans their first look at God of War Laufey during June's PlayStation State of Play, but the company did not share a release date at the time. Speculation about the launch window followed almost immediately, with industry insider NateTheHate pointing to a release in the first half of 2027. Santa Monica Studio has finally ended the guessing game, confirming that the title will launch on February 16, 2027.

Lenovo’s $99 280Hz gaming monitor is built for the ramen-budget crowd
Lenovo is selling a 280Hz monitor for less than GTA 6 Ultimate Edition
Lenovo gaming monitor render

Fresh off launching a metallic Hall-effect keyboard and a 59g gaming mouse for flashy esports setups, Lenovo has turned its attention to gamers working with much tighter budgets. The Legion 24-1r looks made for broke college students who spent way too much on their first gaming rig and now have instant noodles doing most of the heavy lifting at dinner. It costs just 669 yuan, equivalent to around $99, yet offers a 23.8-inch IPS panel running at up to 280Hz.

Lenovo is also offering the 27-inch Legion 27-1r with the same core specifications for 789 yuan, or roughly $116. For the ramen-budget crowd chasing competitive frame rates, both look like seriously tempting deals. (via NotebookCheck)

I played Halo: Campaign Evolved, and its cinematics show what a Halo series could’ve been
Halo’s remake looks ready for Hollywood. So where is the show it deserves?
Adult, Male, Man

There is a moment early in Halo: Campaign Evolved where I stopped thinking about the remake as a game for a second. I was watching one of its newly rebuilt cutscenes. Master Chief, Captain Keyes, Cortana, the Pillar of Autumn, and the enormous scale of everything around them suddenly appeared a lot more cinematic than ever before.

I played the original Halo: Combat Evolved in the early 2000s, and in my head, this was exactly how it looked and felt. The first Halo title introduced intergalactic war to me long before Star Wars, and the cinematic tastefully adds enough minor touches that enhance Bungie's original work from decades ago.
