Junon is dangerous territory for Cloud and his friends in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. The city is already one of Shinra’s major hubs, but matters are made even worse when the president himself is set to arrive to host a parade. This presents a perfect opportunity to don some disguises and hide in plain sight among the ranks, though things get a little out of control when you are recruited to lead a team of troops to perform in a rhythm minigame. You could brush this off and just get by, but where’s the honor in that? Show the president your stuff by making the best parade formation possible.

Your parade formation is determined by which type of troopers you have and in what order. There are 10 groups you can find to add to your ranks, but you only need five to make a formation and start the minigame. These four types are Security Officers, Riot Troopers, Flametroopers, and Grenadiers.

To make the three-star difficulty formation, which will have you doing the Ramuh, Shiva, and Bahamut Formations during the event, you need to use the following units in this order going from left to right: Riot Troopers, Riot Troopers, Grenadiers, Grenadiers, and Flametroopers.

Once you have this formation set, begin the parade and nail the rhythm game to impress the crowd and make your troops proud. If you get the highest score possible, you can even earn a Trophy for your efforts.

Shopping for Back-to-school? These are the gaming laptops I’d recommend
Powerful enough for AAA games, practical enough for everyday lectures, assignments, and everything in between.

Every gamer knows the pain of trying to do too much with the wrong hardware. Back-to-School is the perfect excuse to fix that. A good gaming laptop shouldn’t just hit high frame rates -- it should also survive endless browser tabs, assignments, coding sessions, video edits, and everything else college throws at it. These five machines strike that balance better than most, which is exactly why they’d be my picks this semester.

Sega’s Virtua Fighter Crossroads is coming to Nvidia’s wild new RTX Spark PCs
Virtua Fighter Crossroads will help showcase gaming on Nvidia’s new RTX Spark platform
Computer Hardware, Electronics, Hardware

Nvidia’s new RTX Spark platform has landed one of its first major games. Sega has confirmed that Virtua Fighter Crossroads will run on RTX Spark-powered laptops and compact desktop PCs when the game arrives in 2027. More Sega titles are also heading to the platform, although neither company has named them yet.

The announcement also marks more than 30 years of collaboration between Nvidia and Sega, a relationship that began when Nvidia’s NV1 graphics chip helped bring the original Virtua Fighter to PC. Sega later helped keep the young chipmaker alive by turning a $5 million payment into an investment when Nvidia was close to running out of money.

TCL has spent years saying inkjet-printed OLED could improve image quality, efficiency, lifespan, and manufacturing costs. Back in 2024, the company was still showing prototype laptop panels and promising a “comprehensive breakthrough” once the technology was ready for commercial products.

Two years later, it has finally arrived in a gaming laptop. Lenovo’s new Legion R9000P uses a 16-inch panel that TCL CSOT describes as the world’s first inkjet-printed OLED display integrated into a laptop.
