NotGames co-creator and director Jason “Jay” Orbaum said FMV often works against a game because it “plunges sets into the uncanny valley,” particularly in titles where players are meant to be in the world like Command & Conquer. He feels Night Trap set a better standard by supplementing its limited capabilities with camp, but said the best way to attempt this format is not pretending footage is something it’s not....

Recently, WWE has had a jam-packed schedule with many PPV’s and a confused match card. But, HIAC has proved to be a good build-up for the Super Showdown, and it is a good venture for expanding their business in Australia. WWE is now paying attention to foreign ventures and is expanding their brand all over the world. The PPV is more of a promotional event, but we cannot deny WWE efforts because they’ve put in a lot of effort to build this tremendous event....

Luckily, a countdown on Bethesda’s website is ticking away the remaining seconds until the developer releases the first actual in-game video of Skyrim, at 10:00 EST tomorrow morning. [Update: The first Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim gameplay trailer has released!] We could speculate about what we can expect from the footage, but it isn’t just the look of the game that will tell us about the changes that the developer has made from Oblivion and Morrowind’s formula....

At the end of Season 4, Guzmán (played by Miguel Bernardeau), Samuel (Itzan Escamilla), and Rebe (Claudia Salas) found themselves (unsurprisingly) at the center of another murder and a big cover-up. For now, they are the only ones who are aware of the big secret, but just how long that will last… fans will find out in Season 5. Newsweek has everything you need to know about Elite Season 5 including release date, cast, trailer, plot, and more....

Lineker represented the Three Lions in two World Cups, top scoring in 1986 on his way to a total of 48 international goals. That mark was just one shy of the record set by Sir Bobby Charlton, which stood for decades before another Manchester United favourite, Wayne Rooney, broke the milestone in 2015. The players Wenger missed out on England have struggled to shine at the biggest stage, going home early in the 2014 World Cup; but Lineker believes that with Kane leading the attack that could be about to change....

This week, top-flight clubs voted in favour of the decision to close the pre-season window at 17:00 local time on the Thursday before the 2018-19 campaign starts. United 9/4 for PL glory Mourinho supports teams being forced to conclude business in the market before matches get under way but United were surprisingly one of five clubs to vote against the changes. The 54-year-old understands the decision of the Old Trafford board, though, admitting that certain sides are at risk of being unable to replace players who move to foreign clubs after the English deadline has passed....

One of the most exciting treats the team was able to experience in order to prepare for the game was being able to dive into the Disney archive. In a new diary for the game, Spector and his team talk about what it was like exploring the history of some of Disney’s most beloved characters. Check it out: httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KViATP5L18w&feature=player_embedded When looking through the archives, the team was able to gain behind-the-scenes looks at some of Disney’s creations that unfortunately never made it to the silver screen....

The first, and more obvious Epic Mickey 2 controller prototype is for an updated version of the paintbrush controller that shipped alongside the first iteration of the series. It’s a simple design meant to reflect Mickey’s paintbrush, only with the necessary Wii controls, and it might be a little too gimmicky for some people’s tastes. The other prototype is a recreation of the remote control that Oswald uses. It appears to only have one button and a glowing bulb on the end of it, but it’s quite the clever little addition for Epic Mickey fans....

The 37-year-old won the Champions League in his debut season with Chelsea last time out. However, the Brazilian international had to deal with the heartbreak of losing out in the knockout stages of the competition several times. The Chelsea defender has also hit out at the club’s management for making the fans go through an ‘unimaginable’ suffering. The veteran centre-back has insisted that ’the same thing’ keeps on happening every season, which is hard to digest....

Photographs of a billboard taking a cheeky dig at Djokovic were recently posted on Twitter. An advertising banner for Australian Lamb, featured on a truck near Melbourne Park, provided an invitation for a barbecue with the caption: “Everyone’s welcome at our BBQ. Not Djoking.” The advertisement was part of a larger brand campaign aimed at highlighting Australia’s isolation from the rest of the world during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the adman behind the billboard found the right muse in the form of Djokovic....

Jake Paul and Ben Askren were a part of the press conference to promote their fight that’s set to transpire on April 17th, 2021. Both fighters were witnessed engaging in unrelenting trash talk against each other. On that note, one of the most talked-about moments from the press conference was Ben Askren facepalming Jake. On a recent episode of Impaulsive, Jake Paul’s older brother Logan Paul addressed the said moment....

Posting in Reddit’s “Am I The A**hole” (AITA) forum under the username u/notahip, the daughter-in-law asked: “AITA for being annoyed my MIL ate my dinner?” The post has garnered over 9,000 upvotes and more than 1,500 comments calling u/notahip’s mother-in-law “evil” and “entitled.” You can read the full post here. In-Law Dynamics It’s rather common for people, especially women, to have tense relationships with their mothers-in-law. A recent study published in the Evolutionary Psychological Science journal found that both men and women report having “more conflict with their mothers-in-law than with their own mothers,” the New York Post reported....

There are some players who were ineligible to register for this auction, but a lot of those players too will certainly be snapped up in the coming seasons. While the likes of Yash Dhull, Shaik Rasheed, Rajvardhan Hangargekar, Ravi Kumar and Raj Bawa stole the limelight, former India cricketer Rohan Gavaskar earmarked another name from the squad who will be sought after by IPL teams. Gavaskar took to Twitter and wrote:...

To fully understand the ending, viewers must look at the themes of the entire series, which all come to a head in the final scenes as Dracula goes for one last fatal feast. From its beginning, the BBC and Netflix show has been interested in deconstructing the legends around vampires, offering a new explanation as to why they have emerged. In their final confrontation, Agatha/Zoe tells Dracula that his aversion to the cross, daylight and mirrors is not a natural part of being a vampire, but are just habits that the vampire acquired so long ago that he has forgotten why he really does not like these objects....

If it wasn’t clear already, the developers at BioWare are keen to prove that their fans have been heard loud and clear, with Dragon Age Inquisition seeking to offer more customization, more detail, and a dangerous amount of fine-tuning and intricate systems than fans have dared to hope. After Dragon Age 2 sought to streamline the process, the team has put their extra development time to use, as the latest trailer highlighting Inquisition’s crafting, weapons, and party customization systems promises that a lack of options won’t be a concern come launch....

[HTML1] The launch of a new generation of consoles just wouldn’t be the same without a major BioWare RPG, but while the march towards the PS4 and Xbox One continues, news regarding Dragon Age: Inquisition has been hard to come by. That may be about to change, as Game Informer has revealed the third entry in the medieval-fantasy epic as the star of its September issue. Along with new details in the magazine’s coverage itself, the reveal trailer features some of the most well-known faces from within BioWare discussing their hopes for Dragon Age on next-gen, and provides some of the first looks at (pre-Alpha) gameplay....

To that end, EA has just announced that Dragon Age fans will be able to play the new game, Dragon Age: Inquisition, 5 days early through the EA Access program. They won’t be able to play much – about six hours in total – but that should be plenty of time to venture through the world of Thedas and get a sense for what BioWare is working on. EA doesn’t explicitly say what the limits of this 6-hour “demo” are, but they suggest players will have the whole of Dragon Age: Inquisition to explore....

But screenwriters Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley, the duo who scripted Spider-Man: Homecoming, revealed new details about the suspended production to The Hollywood Reporter while sheltering in place. In describing the second draft of their Dungeons & Dragons script, the duo hinted at their fresh approach to fantasy movies. Asked how much Dungeons & Dragons would follow in the comedic footsteps of their previous work, including the duo’s directorial effort Game Night, Daley and Goldstein described how their D&D movie tries to recreate the spirit of how people actually play the tabletop role playing game, rather than just set an adventure in its fantasy worlds....

There was also an issue with Dying Light’s review copies. Typically, publications receive copies some days (or even weeks) in advance in order to put together an accurate criticism of the game. This time is important as it allows potential buyers to have a good idea of what they’ll be buying and can be aware of any issues that they might want to avoid. So the fact that Dying Light’s review copies were delayed right until launch day suggested that Techland wanted to pull the wool over buyers’ eyes and garner as many early sales as possible....

Before you abandon your computer to talk your significant other into reconsidering their previous stance, we should give a little context here. If you’ve never heard of The Elder Scrolls, then you will likely read this story and laugh at its ridiculousness. If, however, you are familiar with one of the greatest RPG franchises in past and modern gaming, then you know just what a fantastic experience to expect from Skyrim....
