Hi there 🤖 👋

The journey of Alexander Zverev so far in the tennis circuit has been promising, but at the same time, quite frustrating if you seem to observe his game closely. Analyzing his career path in great detail, one comes across him as a curious case of a person who promised to achieve a lot, but delivered far too less than what was expected of him. His name grabbed the headlines for the first time ever on the senior tour when he toppled the then world No....

Despite the simplicity of the end-game, the way Dota 2 plays out in practice is much more complex and unpredictable. There are too many variables in all of its aspects to make a completely fool-proof draft. In the current state of the game, teams tend to decide on one big question of drafting: whether to play ’early’ or ’late’. There are drafts that excel at creating good momentum in the early to mid-game with strong laners and teamfighting potential....

Ubisoft submitted a statement to Eurogamer on the subject, detailing how the two teams will be separate, and how Massive is currently hiring new employees to help with the Avatar title so as not to disturb The Division’s ongoing support. Ubisoft said: The Division players have been worried for some time that Massive would walk away from the game upon the release of the third and final announced expansion, Last Stand....

Now that The Division 1.6 is set to go live on the Public Test Server, the time for playing coy is over. Full patch notes for Update 1.6 are now live, and some of the changes should please players, while others may frustrate them. Developer Massive Entertainment has already teased most of the major changes, but there are some details that fell through the cracks. For example, the Alpha Bridge gear set is receiving a buff that removes all Firearms, Stamina, and Electronics requirements when the 4-piece perk is active....

On paper, Lionsgate’s summer action movie franchise The Expendables has all of the ingredients to potentially translate into a decent video game. With franchise traits like an ensemble hyper-masculine-hero cast, tongue-in-cheek one-liners and enough explosions to make even the most ardent pyromaniac take pause, one might think they were reading about the next Gears of War installment rather than another movie tie-in. Unfortunately, in practice, The Expendables 2: The Video Game squanders any hopes it had at breaking the movie-game curse....

Now available in early access on the Epic Games Store, The Cycle offers players a chance to take the reigns of the multiplayer shooter. Before you jump into The Cycle, there are a few things to know. What is The Cycle? In The Cycle, players land in a region called Fortuna III that is teeming with dangerous monsters. In addition to ferocious creatures, there’s also a storm cycle that can roll in and wipe out players who get caught up in it....

Supermassive revealed some new gameplay footage of The Dark Pictures: House of Ashes that showed some early gameplay. In The Dark Pictures: House of Ashes, Ashley Tisdale’s Rachel King and the other playable characters are fighting in the Iraq War in 2003.

Sachin Tendulkar equaled Sunil Gavaskar’s first-class record by scoring his 81st hundred and in the process completing a phenomenal 25,000 runs in first-class cricket at the Wankhede stadium, where Mumbai are taking on Rest of India in the Irani Cup. Sahara Force India finishes last day of testing: Sahara Force India completed its fourth and final day of testing in Jerez as Jules Bianchi shared driving duties with Paul Di Resta....

What makes Kirby games famously consistent is their willingness to experiment with the core aspects of the series’ identity without sacrificing what makes its games so charming. While Kirby started off with a straightforward cast, the series introduced more nuance in the depiction of its characters, which is a surprising feat considering Kirby’s reputation as one of the most simplistic Nintendo series. This is especially the case with how Kirby treats its antagonists....

In January, Black women celebrated Harris’ historic swearing-in as the nation’s first female vice president, but with that unprecedented victory came the loss of her critical presence in the Senate. After an election cycle with key victories fueled and decided by Black women, it is unfathomable that there are now none to represent us in the nation’s highest legislative chamber. Newly-elected Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.) said, “Black women shouldn’t have to sacrifice our representation at one table to have a seat at another....

It remains to be seen, however, whether Cambodia took a step forward or back. Despite the rosy assessments, the country may in fact be nowhere near ending a crisis that began the day after the July 27 parliamentary election. Hun Sen’s ruling Cambodian People’s Party (CPP) easily won the poll–some claim by rigging it–but failed to secure the two-thirds majority needed to form a new government. Opposition leaders Rainsy and Ranariddh had both refused to bring their respective parties into a coalition as long as Hun Sen remained in charge....

Here we look at some of the strategic differences in the captaincy of the two stalwarts in limited overs cricket: Use of Part-timers: MS Dhoni was someone who surprised everyone with his out of the box thinking and shrewd captaincy. One such thinking was the massive use of part-time bowlers like Raina and Yuvraj. Dhoni always believed in having options in hand, so that he can use them when and where necessary....

According to the leak, the raid begins on the Arlington Bridge and all eight players will need to make it to the other side alive, without using any of the Skills in The Division 2. Even though players will apparently be without that major part of their loadouts, enemies will drop items that will boost players’ bullet damage against enemies. As raid teams near the end of the bridge, one random player will be marked as “Hunted....

The project was set to star Jake Gyllenhaal, who already established a penchant for video game film adaptations with his leading role in 2010’s Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. Jessica Chastain was also announced as being onboard, and The Division movie was going to launch on Netflix, though it was never clear exactly when. RELATED: Division 2 Player Finds Banjo Kazooie Easter Egg Another exciting announcement came in 2018 when it was revealed that The Division movie would be directed by David Leitch of 87North Productions, who worked on Deadpool 2 and Atomic Blonde....

The difficulty may be greater than anticipated, however, as so far no one at Ubisoft has been able to beat the mission, a self-imposed requirement before the challenge can go live to the public. In a podcast for the game, lead designer for The Division, Mathias Karlson, admitted that none of the assembled teams at Ubisoft have been able to make it through the mission without the use of a known exploit, which the team will have patched prior to release....

The Ritual of Mara is a marriage ceremony that is most iconically performed in Elder Scrolls Online between two players, however, Mara will also oversee the marriage between a player and an NPC in Skyrim as well. In ESO, players can perform the Ritual of Mara together by purchasing the Pledge of Mara for 1,000 Crowns from the Crown Store. It also allows players to earn an experience bonus while questing together in-game, but now ESO fans can purchase the rings out-of-game for a limited time....

So while it may seem, then, that The Elder Scrolls 6 is sure to add another benchmark title to the annals of video game history, the recent evolution of open-world games presents a particular challenge for the studio that helped shape the genre. The supply of open-world adventure RPGs has increased dramatically since 2011 in both quantity and quality, and if Bethesda hopes to overcome open-world fatigue, an increasingly common phenomenon in the current landscape, it must pay attention to the ways in which it realizes its upcoming world....

“We’re now living in a new world,” Gorbachev said forlornly last week as he finally announced his decision to “discontinue my activities” as Soviet president. The union did not outlast him by long. The next day a remnant of the country’s first freely elected legislature held a sad little meeting and pronounced itself dead. The Soviet regime passed into history at the age of 74, unmourned by millions of survivors, who were more absorbed with building new nations-or finding something to eat....
