An all-round fan favorite, the series appeared to be K.I.A following the release of a 2010 sequel and subsequent Vietnam-era add-on pack, though according to at least one top EA developer, the boys of B-company are certain to return. Speaking at a recent Battlefield 4 promotional event, Lars Gustavsson, the creative director behind the game enthused about the series as a whole, and promised a continuation to the outlandish saga....

Urgent care centers are so convenient. Should the default be to go to your family physician instead? Even if it means waiting days (or longer) for an appointment? If your symptoms suggest COVID, don’t wait. Call your doctor, sure, but hightail it to a testing site for a nasal swab. Unfortunately, just about any symptom is suspect these days, including fatigue, vomiting and even sniffles. Urgent care trumps waiting for your family physician for splinters, minor burns, bug bites, suspicions of a bone break and even minor chest pain....

The Manchester City defender spent eight years working under his fellow Frenchman during a productive spell in north London. ‘Wenger Out’ banner at Wrestlemania He still considers the 67-year-old to be among the best managers in the business and feels the ongoing criticism is unfair as it tarnishes a fine reputation. After helping City to a 2-2 draw at Emirates Stadium on Sunday, in which there were further protests against Wenger’s reign, Clichy said: “It is hard, yes, because the manager does not really deserve what he is getting....

“Ladies and gentlemen, if a government can do this to the President of the United States, they can do this to you as well,” Carter told reporters earlier today. “You need to be scared… You need to be very scared.” He added: “This needs to stop, it needs to stop right now. We need open government. This is the United States of America.” Despite Carter’s warnings, only federal government employees are eligible to be impeached, according to the U....

PSG continued their fine start to the season, beating Montpellier in Ligue 1 on Saturday (August 13). They steamrolled past Olivier Dall’Oglio’s side as they handed them a 5-2 thrashing. Falaye Sacko’s own goal opened the scoring for Christophe Galtier’s side in the first half. Neymar (x2), Kylian Mbappe and Renato Sanches went on to add to Montpellier’s woes. Wahbi Khazri and Enzo Gianni Tchato Mbiayi netted for La Paillade....

Here’s a relevant quote from the 51 year old Welsh Librarian at the party: Each participant came to the event armed with a likely poorly specced laptop, and as the tea flowed and the cake disappeared these casual gamers likely scored Bejeweled scores pro StarCraft or Counter Strike players could never dream of. Looking at the trailer for the upcoming Bejeweled 3, it appears that the sequel will be adding a multitude of new and exciting modes for casual gamers to try out....

Though the TikTok trend is slowly growing online, many netizens have been quick to cancel it before it grows popular. Instagram handle @defnoodles uploaded a post of the cringe-worthy trend, and several social media users expressed secondhand embarrassment online. Some comments included: Another comment read: As many TikTok users expressed disgust online, some shed light on how the “Getting Arrested” trend is insensitive to incarcerated people.

Michel Ancel, the mastermind behind both the original game and the Rayman series, said in a video interview that Beyond Good & Evil 2 is still in development, but that his team needs more powerful tech to realize its vision. It looks like we can all forget about the game hitting current-gen consoles. That being said, Ancel still isn’t sure which of the next-gen platforms gamers can expect the game to launch on – he and his studio are focused on creating the game first....

The CBS show airs new episodes Wednesdays, Thursdays and Sundays but fans also have the opportunity to tune into a live stream, available via Paramount+, to see what the Houseguests are up to when they’re not watching the episodes. Following the August 18 episode of Big Brother, viewers expressed their frustration at the live feeds were cut just moments after a shock new twist was announced.

Amid another injury-hit season at Santiago Bernabeu, the 28-year-old has once again seen his future called into question. United are long-standing admirers of the Wales international and are reported to be considering a big-money approach for a man who has previously sparkled in the Premier League at Tottenham. Bale has, however, received support from Blancos boss Zinedine Zidane of late and his representative, Jonathan Barnett, has now sought to bring an end to the ongoing exit rumours....

The developers responsible for both properties, NetherRealm and Rocksteady respectively, have signed a deal through parent company Warner Bros. Interactive with Epic Games to utilize nothing but Unreal Engine 3 for the next three years. Both studios have been extremely satisfied (and so are we) with the visuals Unreal Engine 3 makes possible, so why not continue that relationship? By signing such a deal with Epic Games, NetherRealm and Rocksteady have pretty much solidified that they aren’t going anywhere and plan to pursue projects at least for the next couple years....

Rocksteady made fairly grand promises, and the first Robin TV Spot left a lot to be desired for fact-starved fans. Luckily, this trailer certainly hasn’t disappointed. With Batman’s signature combat from the previous game being adopted for Arkham City, and the addition of Catwoman’s acrobatics, it was hard to think of another style that could compliment those already included. But from this early look at Robin’s blend of the two, it seems that the developers have come up with a happy medium that plenty of players will enjoy....

[HTML1] As one of the best games of last year, it’s hard to think that anyone interested in Rocksteady’s campaign will be playing it for the first time in Batman: Arkham City Armored Edition. Regardless, Nintendo has turned to the Dark Knight to help launch their brand new console, the Wii U, along with extra features making use of the innovative tablet controller. We had the opportunity to try out the new features of the Wii U version at E3 2012, and while the developers have come up with some promising uses for the handheld touchpad and gyroscope, Arkham City and the Wii U may not be the best fit....

In Arkham Knight, players will go face to face with even more notorious figures from the DC Comics world. This includes Scarecrow, Harley Quinn, Penguin, Two-Face, Riddler, Firefly and Poison Ivy, with the supervillains all teaming up on Halloween night to exterminate Batman once and for all. Arkham Knight also features a militarized version of the hero, but as every Gotham citizen has fled the city, taking down all of those iconic DC foes isn’t going to be easy....

First, fans can add Electrocutioner to the list of the eight villains descending on Gotham City to collect the bounty on Batman’s head. And mobile gamers won’t be left out in the cold either, as Arkham Origins will also be coming to both iOS and android mobile devices. Both announcements were made via trailer at NYCC, with the Electrocutioner reveal (embedded below) sure to garner the most attention. The electrified member of Batman’s rogues gallery joins the likes of Deathstroke, Firefly, Bane, Copperhead, and Lady Shiva, and offers yet another example of WB Games’ intention of providing a variety of villain types to players in their first entry in the franchise....

The DirectX error typically rears its ugly head when you attempt to launch the newly released multiplayer shooter in the first place, although there are some reports of it triggering crashes midway through sessions as well. Essentially, you will see a pop-up message that reads: “GXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED,” followed by an explanation telling you that the graphics driver might have crashed and then a bunch of code. This will prevent you from playing the game....

As a result, it’s not surprising to hear that EA could be snubbing Valve’s Steam service, to bolster their own Origin offering, by withholding their highly-anticipated first-person shooter, Battlefield 3. Hot on the heels of news that EA would only be offering the Mass Effect 3 PC Deluxe Edition exclusively through Origin, Joystiq stumbled upon the interesting omission of Steam on the list of “Battlefield 3 Digital Retailers.” The page has since been pulled, indicating that Steam’s absence was either an oversight - or the publisher realized the omission was quickly creating anti-Steam speculation....

Overcoming a lukewarm critical reception, Battlefield Hardline managed to beat out the highly anticipated PS4 exclusive Bloodborne in that month, to the surprise of many. Since Bloodborne managed to sell over 1 million units at least, that means that Battlefield Hardline also sold quite well, but even so EA has made the decision to layoff an undetermined number of people at Visceral Games. EA has described the situation as “a small staffing change”, but readers should consider that a PR-centric way to say “layoffs”....

Will there be another season of ‘Batwoman’? The future of Batwoman is secured for now. In February, the CW ordered a third season of the DC Comics show. It was one of 12 shows renewed at the time, with All American, Charmed, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, Dynasty, The Flash, In the Dark, Legacies, Nancy Drew, Riverdale, Roswell New Mexico and Walker also being recommissioned. Leslie will return as Ryan Wilder/Batwoman in Season 3—but there will be one big change for the show....
