Now, however, one enterprising YouTuber has taken up the challenge of downsizing the machine to create the “world’s first PS5 Slim console” - one that’s less than 2cm thick. This particular project is the work of YouTube channel DIY Perks, which specialises in videos about designing and building gadgets and technology at home, and begins with a tear-down of Sony’s behemoth console to figure out exactly which of its innards should stay and which can go to hit that self-imposed 2cm limit....

WWE 2K20 has topped many “worst of” lists for 2019, with the game releasing in a broken state and plagued with glitches. One would think it couldn’t possibly get worse for WWE 2K20 and the brand’s dwindling reputation, but it has, and in one of the most bizarre ways imaginable.
