One of the things which have been doing the rounds and making the fans crazier about the game is the appearance of Vin Diesel in one of the trailers of the game.

If you’ve played Half-Life Alyx, you’ll know that it was a true VR experience, crafted from the ground up to really make use of the Valve Index. It was a showcase of the headset as well as a deep campaign set in the Half-Life universe. The game was hailed by critics and fans alike, praising the immersive quality and novel VR tricks. The game was seen as one of the best VR experiences out there, so much so that we’ve not got a brand-new expansion called Half-Life Alyx: Levitation. The original game lets you play as Alyx Vance in a time period between Half-Life and Half-Life 2; about five years before Half-Life 2. The Combine is everywhere in City 17 and Alyx spends most of her time surveilling their forces. In fact, the Combine is busy building a massive monolith in the middle of the city which happens to be Alyx’s principal interest.
Half-Life Alyx expansion coming soon?
Developed by modders FMPONE and Corey Lando, the mod was revealed at the PC Gaming Showcase with 7 minutes of gameplay from the final build. The team did have the help of a bunch of other modders, voice actors and more while producing the game. The original game relied on a lot of puzzle-solving peppered with combat situations every now and then. Using your hands to manipulate elements of various puzzles is where you experience most of the fun. Combat comes in at a close second. If normal video games could make you empathise with the bevy of emotions that the protagonist feels then Half-Life: Alyx actually makes you experience them. We even gave the game a 9 out of 10 in our official SKOAR review. You can check it out here.
We’re hoping the mod has the same attention to detail as the original game but if the gameplay video is anything to go by, we should be getting a competent sequel to Half-Life Alyx sometime later in 2022.

It might feel like the end of an era for some internet users as Microsoft is finally shutting down Internet Explorer desktop app on June 15, 2022. The veteran browser was launched in 1995 and for the past 27 years, it has been in the public conscience, often the butt of jokes on how slow or outdated it is compared to the competition. It was at its peak of popularity in 2003 with a 95% usage share. But then better browser alternatives came into the scene and it took a backseat.
So, let’s take a look at those best browser options that are available on major platforms and you can expect more features, performance gains, power efficiency, and better security from them.
Best Browser Alternatives To Internet Explorer
1. Chrome
Chrome would be undoubtedly the most popular browser on the list. Why wouldn't it be as it comes pre-installed in many Android phones, and is a pretty reliable and powerful browser with plenty of themes and extensions for customization?
2. Firefox
Firefox is the browser to go if you love to tinker with extensions and personalize your browsing experience. Even some things like the Ublock Origin adblocker tend to work better on Firefox. You can go to their add-on store and try out the plethora of plugins. It’s also less power-hungry than Chrome.
3. Safari
Safari is the default and exclusive browser for Apple devices and offers better integration with iOS, macOS, and iPadOS. It is more power-efficient than Chrome and comes packed with a sufficient number of features. In our experience, the plugin library pales in comparison to Chrome Store and Firefox Add-on store.
4. Edge
Edge is based on the Chromium engine and hence feels a lot like Chrome (with Chrome extensions support) but with Microsoft’s own skin and some added features on top. Occasionally, it might feel rough around the edges but it’s bearable as compared to the host of features it carries. Also, since it comes built-in on Windows, you don’t require installing anything else. That’s a big plus in our opinion. Moreover, It is your best bet for legacy support against websites, applications, and ActiveX controls.
5. Vivaldi
Go with this one, if you want the most amount of features for personalization including navigation UI, shortcut controls, simultaneous multi-tab viewing, etc. On top of all these, there is support for Chrome extensions that is simply icing on the cake.
While commenting on the retirement of IE, Microsoft Edge programme manager Sean Lyndersay said, "Internet Explorer mode ('IE mode') is incorporated into Microsoft Edge, allowing you to view older Internet Explorer-based websites and applications directly from Microsoft Edge. With Microsoft Edge capable of taking on this and other responsibilities, the Internet Explorer 11 desktop application will be discontinued and phased out of support for certain versions of Windows 10 on June 15, 2022".
