Fully rated: Ariana Grande Fortnite Concert, suicide Squad and "Nothing" vs Apple AirPods

"Totally Rated" is a show featuring reviews and opinions on the top gaming and technology stories of the week. The show brings together journalists who review (and rate) the latest technology and games. [This week we discuss Ariana Grande's Fortnite concert, James Gunn's views on the 2016 release of Suicide Squad, and the new Nothing Ear wireless earbuds (1) and Apple's AirPods.

The success of Travis Scott's virtual Fortnite show has led many to speculate who the next in-game concert headliner will be.

Earlier this week, Epic Games announced that it will host the Fortnite Ariana Grande Rift Tour from August 6-8.

Not only will you have the chance to see digital versions of Ariana Grande performing her hits, but you can also get at least one Ariana Grande skin and other Grande-related customization items.

In tech, Carl Pei's Nothing released its first earbuds to mixed reactions from all quarters; T3's Yasmin Crossland explains: [Nothing Ear (1)'s true wireless earbuds promise a lot and are a great affordable bad But they are not yet to the point of dominating the true wireless market," Crossland says.

Despite the criticism, she is very pleased with her $100 earbuds.

"The almost transparent design makes the Nothing Ear (1) buds look a little different, but not as different as I had hoped... . less than $100, loaded with extra features, decent sound and effective noise-canceling technology.

"I wouldn't say they'll dethrone the AirPods, but for those who want cool wireless headphones without shelling out the big bucks for top-of-the-line headphones, the Nothing Ear (1) Buds won't disappoint.

Finally, "Suicide Squad" opened in theaters this week and is currently attracting both critics and fans alike with a 96% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn took on the second installment of DC's most notorious supervillain team following the original "Suicide Squad," which won an Academy Award for Best Makeup and Hairstyling in 2016.

TechRadar's Alex Metz gave it four stars out of five and said, "Given the sanitized nature of recent superhero adventures, James Gunn's first DC joyride is absolutely worth the ticket price."

New episodes of Totally Rated will roll out weekly.
