Turtle Rock Studios and 2K have teamed up with TriForce to create a magnificent looking statue of Goliath, one of the big, bad beasties that you will use to savage your friends in their upcoming asymmetrical co-op shooter Evolve.

The Goliath statue is 29 inches high and a whopping 35 pounds, living up to its imposing name. It features built-in LED effects for glowing eyes. Only 500 will be available worldwide for the bank-breaking price of $750. If you need something even more exclusive, swing by TriForce’s booth at New York Comic Con next week to pick up a more limited edition version of the statue for $800 that features some red paint for the Savage Goliath skin that has been announced for fans that pre-order the game.

A Nintendo emulator is Apple’s top downloaded app after ban reversal

The iOS App Store has a new No. 1 app, and it's Delta -- Game Emulator. Recently unbanned by Apple, the app allows players to emulate games from several different Nintendo systems, even though it isn't officially backed by Nintendo.

As a report from The Washington Post outlines, Apple recently loosened its App Store restrictions, which allowed game emulators to return to the storefront even though they were previously banned. Emulators populate a murky gray area in the video game industry, as they are fantastic for game preservation, but also give people ways to play games illegally if they find the ROM online.

Best GPU deals: MSI, XFX, EVGA

Getting into gaming can be an expensive hobby, especially if you're building a new PC from scratch and want to get the best GPU that you possibly can. Unfortunately, in the past couple of years, GPU prices have skyrocketed, especially for RTX 40-series cards, and they don't look to be coming down any time soon, whether you're going for AMD or Nvidia. Luckily, there are still quite a lot of great deals you can take advantage of that will let you snag a card for a great price, and we've collected some of our favorites below. That said if you'd rather go for something that's already been put together, check out these gaming PC deals instead.
XFX SPEEDSTER SWFT210 AMD Radeon RX 6600 Core 8GB GDDR6 -- $230, was $280

XFX is a pretty well-known brand that makes AMD Radeon GPUs, so you're getting a good-quality device right out of the gate. It has an impressive 8GB GDDR6, at least for this price bracket, and will give you a bit longer life out of it when games start using up a lot more VRAM, even at lower graphical settings. While the base clock runs at 2.0 GHz, the boosted clock speed is 2.5 GHz which is pretty good, and the whole thing is unlocked, so you could theoretically boost it higher if you have the right cooling. This RTX 6600 can support resolutions up to 8K, but really, this is an ideal 1080p gaming GPU.
