I’ve spent some time with this pair of headphones, using them for gaming, video calls, music and streaming. Read on for my full thoughts. Design Alright, let’s get it out the way with – this is a lovely looking set of cans.

Okay, let me be upfront: I’m not a big fan of Olympic table tennis. It’s not going to be at the top of my list to watch during the games. Most sports I respect, even if they don’t interest me. I acknowledge that table tennis requires an enormous amount of skill and agility. The sport is also quite different from when it was first considered for Olympic inclusion in 1936, as it now requires more athleticism....

The ease with which he invaded our imaginations suggests that he was visually articulating the alienation and anomie already on everybody’s mind.

Knopf. $35), the first biography, astonishingly, we have of this towering figure and a book crammed with telling revelations about its subject....

“Hey, I signed up to be a Yankee because I wanted to play with the best players,” Tulowitzki said during a conference call Monday. “So if Manny is one of those guys, then I think that would be awesome. It would make the team that much stronger.” If Machado signs with the Yankees as a high-priced free agent, he presumably would take over at third base. Tulowitzki is projected to start in an infield with Miguel Andujar at third, Gleyber Torres at second and Luke Voit or Greg Bird at first....

Starting out as one of the first game series to utilize the PlayStation 2’s online capabilities with great community success, it is great to see the SOCOM series come full circle by breaking new ground with the Move motion controller. Though SOCOM 4 got off to a rough start missing the launch of the Move peripheral itself, the next installment seems to be right on track. After having delivered a solid multiplayer experience in MAG, many hope that Zipper Interactive can return to the franchise they began and create an even deeper multiplayer component....

Stuart Broad, right-arm fast medium,is into the attack. Chris Woakes, right-arm fast, comes into the attack. Sam Curran, left-arm medium pace, is into the attack. Perhaps the only thing more intimidating for an Indian cricket fan than the English pace quartet operating in tandem is the sight of batsmen ambling back to the pavilion one by one, with each bowler scalping at least one in each macabre spell. Vijay in, Vijay out; Rahul in, Rahul out; Pujara in, Pujara out....

The Spanish international was named on the bench for the game at Stamford Bridge, just two days after joining from Bayern Munich in a deal which could cost the Reds up to £27 million ($35m). Klopp decided to introduce the midfielder at half-time as the Reds looked to take advantage of a red card from Andreas Christensen just before the break. The visitors did just that as a pair of Sadio Mane goals – the second aided by another error from Kepa Arrizabalaga – gave the defending champions a 2-0 win on the afternoon....

Premier League leaders Liverpool faced MK Dons in round three of the EFL Cup on September 25, winning 2-0.
