Alexander the GREAT?

No one has ever found Alexander The Great but he conquered Egypt during his life, and the city of Alexandria is derived from his name. In the MCU, he was an Avatar of Ammit.

Marc’s Partner Killed Layla’s Father

Marc reveals that his mercenary partner killed Layla’s father and later shot him too. It’s clear now that Layla is indeed the replacement for Marc’s wife from the comics, Marlene Alraune.
In the comics, this partner was Raoul Bushman. However, his name isn’t mentioned in the MCU series yet.

They’re in an asylum?

Steven/Marc gets shot and we’re suddenly in an asylum? What’s happening? While I can’t say for sure what’s happening yet, this has happened before in the comics.
In Moon Knight Volume 8 by Jeff Lemire and Greg Smallwood, Marc Spector wakes up in a mental institute with no recollection of his past or how he got there. The staff, led by a person named Dr Emmet, seems to have supernatural powers and thwart Marc’s attempts to recover his past. Marc is shown evidence that he is a mentally ill man who has convinced himself he is also Moon Knight, a vigilante he’s seen on the news. Khonshu contacts Marc and explains that Emmet is an Avatar of the Egyptian goddess Ammit. Khonshu wants to fully take over Marc’s body but he and all his personalities/alters fight back. They then defeat Khonshu and Dr Emmet together.

Of course, that’s not necessarily what’s going to happen, but both the comic and the series feature the same antagonist.
Jake Lockley?
Then, we see sarcophagus with someone in it. Earlier, Marc freed Steven from a similar sarcophagus, so who’s in this one?
It might be Jake Lockley. Remember when Marc had blackouts in Episode 3? We still don’t know who was taking over his body. It could be Jake, but it hasn’t been confirmed.
In the comics, Jake Lockley is another prominent personality/alter in the same body. It’s easy to distinguish Jake Lockley from Marc or Steven in the comics because of his moustache and facial hair.

The end credits sort of teases this already, with what looks like three figures or three sections of his head split.

Who’s this now? This is Taweret, the Egyptian goddess of childbirth and fertility. She was actually mentioned in a throwaway line in the very first episode by Steven at the museum.That was certainly a crazy cliffhanger. With only two episodes to go, I literally have no idea how this show is going to end. Is Taweret going to revive Marc/Steven?
Until next week, true believers, excelsior!


Fate/Samurai Remnant Is A New Fate Game From Koei Tecmo

Koei Tecmo has announced a new action-RPG set in the Fate franchise, Fate/Samurai Remnant. It’s slated to release for the PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch and PC sometime in 2023. However, there’s not much when it comes to details.
The game looks like it’s set in Japan during the Edo period and the samurai Saber character might be Musashi Miyamoto, who has previously appeared in other games like Fate/Grand Order. The official website mentions Omega Force, which is best known for Musou series like Dynasty Warriors.
In the meantime, check out the trailer below:


Devs May Be Required To Include Trials For Games On PlayStation Priced US$34 Or Higher

Video game developers will reportedly be required to create timed game demos or trials for PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers when the new Premium tiers come into effect. Any game that costs US$34 or higher wholesale must apparently have a game trial for Sony’s subscription service that lasts for at least two hours.
According to a report from Game Developer, this requirement does not apply to games with a wholesale price of less than US$34 or PlayStation VR games. Developers will reportedly have up to three months after their games launch to release a timed trial, and timed trials are only required to be available on the service for at least 12 months.
Sony Interactive Entertainment is also open to releasing custom game demos instead of time-limited game trials, as approved on a case-by-case basis. Publishers will still be also free to publish free game weekends, game trials, and custom demos for all PlayStation users.
Sony recently announced its rebranded subscription service and unveiled the three new tiers for PlayStation Plus. It’s set to launch next month in Asian markets (excluding Japan) on 23 May 2022. Japan soon follows on 1 June 2022, with the Americas on 13 June 2022 and Europe on 22 June 2022.


The Kids Are All Grown Up In New Stranger Things 3 Trailer

Netflix has released the first full-length trailer for the upcoming season 3 of Stranger Things, and it’s giving us all the feels. The kids are all grown up, and a new threat is looming on the horizon (even bigger than the Demogorgon?).
Stranger Things 3 is set in the summer of 1985 in the small town of Hawkins, as the group of kids we know from the first two seasons are now grown up. Well. if you can call teenagers “grown up”, that is.
What are the kids, I mean “teens”, up to now?
The time jump highlights a growing rift between Dustin (Gaten Matarazzo), Mike (Finn Wolfhard), Lucas (Caleb McLaughlin), Will (Noah Schnapp), and Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown), as they deal with the challenges of not being kids anymore, and all the confusing hormones that come with it.
Hopper and Joyce can’t seem to catch a break, can they?
The trailer also showcases all the teen hijinks our group will be involved with, including summer jobs at the pool and cinema, falling in love with the wrong people, and… a Demogorgon cousin inside a hospital?

Stranger Things Season 3 is slated to release on 4 July 2019 exclusively via Netflix. In the meantime, check out the awesome new trailer below.

[Report] Gears 5 Launches 10 September; Features Dope Cover

With Crackdown 3 and a pretty beefy Sea of Thieves update out, does it look like Xbox is tapped out for this year? According to this tidbit from Generacion Xbox, that isn’t the case.
If you recall, the next Gears of War game will be out and will be dubbed Gears 5 because it’s too cool for extra subtitles anyway. Here’s the official cover of the game…

…which looks pretty ominous yet pleasant, as well as a release date: 10 September. Until Xbox mentions anything official during their E3 2019 press conference or before, treat this with a grain salt for now.
What can Gears of War fans expect from part 5? Well, we may:

…find out if main character Kait will end up as the new Locust Queen or not, based on Gears of War 4’s revelation and her newfound Locust heritage.

…be shooting and taking cover a lot in icy tundras, snow battlefields, and dark cold caves against the Scourge/Locusts.
…hopefully be piloting giant-ass mechs more like the last third of Gears 4, because that bit is pretty badass!
…be listening to more Ramin Djawadi’s music, if he’s back for this sequel. Lord knows right now that’s the only thing noteworthy about this year’s Game of Thrones season.


NRG Announces Overwatch League Roster for San Francisco

NRG earlier today revealed their roster for the upcoming Overwatch League, representing San Francisco. Utilizing star power such as Shaq and J.Lo, the reveal also showcased a starry lineup with the likes of ‘iddqd’, ‘babybay’, ‘danteh’ and ‘sinatraa’ in the mix. Check out the trailer below.
[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGv41dSFEJU&w=560&h=315]
It was an interesting reveal considering NRG already have an established Overwatch roster with prominent names to boot with the likes of Â ‘numlocked’, ‘dummy’ and ‘ajax’ within their ranks. The formation of the San Fran roster built along the lines of a ‘super team’ with inclusions of ‘Danteh’ from Arc 6, ‘nomy’ from Immortals, ‘dhak’ from Selfless and ‘sleepy’ from Tempo Storm balks the trend of other teams, who drafted in whole squads to compete in the OWL.

Team Seoul will essentially be represented by champions of APEX Season 3, the boys from Lunatic-Hai while Team London, owned by the Cloud9 organization will be represented by APEX Season 3 runners-up, the KongDoo Panthera squad. In addition to those two giants, Team Dallas which is essentially North America’s #1 team, EnVyUs, recently announced the acquisition of former NRG DPS star Seagull. Which begs the question – what’s the reasoning behind Team San Fran’s roster buildup?
Anyways, expect more OWL news to come up in the following days. As the list of teams and rosters grow, so does the excitement for the very first Overwatch League season. Stay tuned as we will be covering the Overwatch League with not just news and coverage, but also in-depth analysis of the world’s most lucrative Overwatch tournament to date.


Bang Dream! Girls Gets A Nintendo Switch Port This September

The pretty-famous music rhythm all-girl band game Bang Dream! Girls Band Party will be getting a Nintendo Switch port.
According to publisher Bushiroad and developer Craft Egg, the port will get a physical and digital release for 7,678 yen on 16th September. There’s no word on an English release date yet.

If it’s anything like the iOS and Android game, you’ll be playing this like a rhythm game; hit cues and falling notes to the beat of the song & bass while getting a high score. You’ll also experience the awesome life of a girl band through the perspective of 7 groups, each of them with different motivations and team temperament catering to your kind of anime protagonist.


This New Nerf Blaster Is Worthy Of The Mandalorian

The Mandalorian Season 2 just ended and we have a while to wait until the next Disney Plus Star Wars series drops with The Book Of Boba Fett in December 2021. However, to tide you over until then, there’s actually a replica of The Mandalorian’s signature Amban phase-pulse blaster.
Itâ€™s over four feet (specifically 50.25 inches) long, which makes it the longest Nerf gun ever made. It also features a light-up scope and â€œaccurate soundsâ€ (four blaster sounds, four charging sounds).
Here’s a GIF to show you how cool it looks:

Hereâ€™sÂ what the actualÂ MandalorianÂ prop looks like in real life:

A post shared by Jon Favreau (@jonfavreau)

The new Nerf blaster is already available for pre-order (Amazon,Â Hasbro), but apparently, it’s already sold out at the moment. It is slated to ship in Spring 2021. It’s mighty expensive though, at a whopping US$120, or roughly RM480+.


Overwatch League Transfers: New Dragons Set to Join Team By End of March

Good news Shanghai Dragons fans. We have an update on the four newest recruits for the team.
According to the Shanghai Dragons’ official Twitter account, their four new players, Sky, Geguri, Fearless and Ado are set to join the team by end of March assuming all their work visas are approved without a issues.

Shanghai Dragons has announced 4 new players: Sky, Geguri, Fearless and Ado recently, and here is the status we want to share with the community. 4 of them are expected to have an visa interview on 3/15, and arrived in the US before 3/31. Please stay tuned for any more updates.
â€” Shanghai Dragons (@ShanghaiDragons) March 9, 2018
Following the announcement that the team haveÂ signed these four players a few weeks back, they are still unable to compete in the league due to paperwork issues, mostly related to work visas. Up til today, we were unsure as of when will these four be eligible to compete and we’ve been resigned to watching Geguri, playing as Brigette, bully other players on her stream.

Thankfully though, the wait will be over soon.


House Of The Dragon Showrunner Reveals More About The Dragonkeepers

We’re less than a month away from the premiere of the Game Of Thrones prequel, House Of The Dragon. More and more details are coming out about the upcoming series, including its setting and of course, dragons. For instance, there will be more than just dragons in the series. In a world with dragons, there must also be those who take care of the dragons. These are the Dragonkeepers in House Of The Dragon.
Courtesy of HBO Asia, House Of The Dragon co-showrunner, executive producer and director Miguel Sapochnik (he is also best known for having directed iconic Game Of Thrones episodes like The Battle Of The Bastards and Hardhome) said:

“This show really is a family drama and the dragons are for the most part domesticated. It’s 200 years before Game of Thrones and dragons were at their height — they were their weapons of mass destruction and they also used them to ride around. So it was like having a really cool car that had nukes in it. We approach the dragons as we did in the original show, which is they’re not fantasy, they’re large animals.
But we do go a bit further into dragon lore: we have a group called the Dragonkeepers who basically look after dragons. They’ve been around for thousands of years. They’re almost not affiliated to anything. They just treat the dragons like deities and really big horses and they do everything for dragons. They’ve all got dragonglass daggers on them because if they get burned in the line of duty they can cut their own throat. Basically they’re monks, they only speak Valyrian and then each older Dragonkeeper has an acolyte with them who interprets for them and speaks English.
They all wear clothes that have been handed down over generations so they are really dirty. It’s all about mythology but it has inklings of magic. So we’ve kept the magic alive in that sense, in the mythology of fire and ice, but there’s less magic in this show than there was before.”

He also revealed more about the dragons themselves:

“We spent almost a year working with concept artists, designing each dragon. The dragons are connected to their riders and so we wanted them to both have an aspect of them but also be individually unique in their own way.
Daemon’s dragon Caraxes, for example, is like this deformed dragon. Vhagar, who’s the largest dragon in the world is this cantankerous old lady who is the most powerful dragon there is — but really she just wants to sleep. She’s just a grumpy old sod.
Syrax, who is Rhaenyra’s dragon is this slightly kind of eagle-like, built-for-speed dragon. She’s far more twitchy and fidgety and Rhaenyra has carved stuff in her horns, like jewellery.
So there was a chance to play out this idea that the rider and the dragon have this symbiotic relationship. The rider chooses their dragon. And once a rider has chosen they are paired for life until one of them dies.”

House Of The Dragon premieres on HBO and HBO GO on 22 August 2022. You can also revisit all eight seasons of Game of Thrones on HBO GO.
You can subscribe to HBO GO online at https://www.hbogoasia.my/ or the mobile app via the App Store or Play Store for RM23.30 per month. You can also access HBO GO via Astro. HBO GO is also available on Android TV, Apple TV, LG TV and Samsung Smart TV – and comes with AirPlay and Google Cast functionality.

eRacing GP’s First 12-Hour Endurance Race Of 2021 Flags Off This Weekend

eRacing GP will be running Asiaâ€™s first 12-hour simulator race this weekend with Round 1 of their 2021 Endurance Edition. Drivers will take on the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya in GT3 and GT4 cars.
Gold and Silver class drivers will be in the GT3 cars, which will reach speeds of 270kph. The GT4 cars will consist of Bronze and Copper drivers, and although these cars are slightly slower than their GT3 cousins, the racing will be just as fraught.
It is a multi-make championship and there will be 37 supercars lining up on the grid for the race which will kick off on at 12pm GMT+8 on Saturday, 16 January 2021 and end at 12am GMT+8 on 17 January 2021. Fans can watch all the action on a live stream on eRacing GPâ€™s Facebook page.
Entities are made out of three to four drivers per car. Driver swaps will normally happen at the end of each stint, which could be as long as 75 minutes.
Most of the drivers and teams are from around the Asia Pacific region. The starting grid will feature the reigning eRacing GP Teams Cup champions, Sim Racing Pilipinas, in cars 1 and 2.
We also have Singaporean top sim racing team, Legion of Racers, who have GT World Challenge Asia Champion, Andika Rama from Indonesia, in an AMG Mercedes. In their other entry, they have chosen eRacing GPâ€™s Global Edition 4 Champion, Dillan Tan.
One of Australiaâ€™s top simulator racing teams, Laundry House, is also entering two cars. Look out for their McLaren 720S, car #90 and a Porsche GT3, car #911.
We also have teams from Indonesia with JMX Phantom entering one car and Bhinneka Racing entering three cars. There is also top Hong Kong team, Wakoâ€™s Fliptable Racing, with three entries â€“ car #939 is a BMW M6, car #969 is a Mercedes AMG and car #999 is an Aston Martin V8.
Closer to home, there are a slew of Malaysian entries with Stratos Motorsports and Blue Steel Racing being the most well-known.
Stratos Motorsports Is fielding four Ferrari 488â€™s with car #111 seating perhaps their strongest lineup.
Singaporean Aleef Hamilton, who is a multiple eRacing GP Global Edition champion, is joined by Malaysians Naquib Azlan and Alister Yoong as well as Mikko Nassi, who is a Finnish driver based in Singapore. Azlan and Nassi were the inaugural Endurance Edition Champions when they won the 4-hours of Silverstone in November last year.
eRacing GP and Axle Sports CEO and founder Alex Yoong said:
â€œItâ€™s the first time something like this has been done in the region and Iâ€™m especially happy with the response and calibre of teams and drivers involved.
We have Australia, Philippines, Singapore, Indonesia and, of course, Malaysia going head-to-head. And I cannot see a clear favourite at this point.”
The 12-hour race at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya will be the first round of six in the eRacing GP 2021 Endurance Edition.


Kojima Productions’ Death Stranding Reach 10 Million Players

Fans of Hideo Kojima’s work can rest assure that his game-making days are still going to be a thing, if these new Death Stranding numbers are of any indication.
Kojima Productions has announced during the third anniversary of adventure game Death Stranding that the game has reached over 10 million players worldwide. This includes the regular Death Stranding and the Death Stranding Director’s Cut, made available for PS4, PS5, and PC. Here’s the self-pat-on-the-back congratulatory message from the company:

“As of November 8th, 2022, Death Stranding has connected with over 10 million Porters worldwide across PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and PC.* This milestone comes as the Death Stranding franchise celebrates its 3rd anniversary following its launch on November 8th, 2019.”

Death Stranding first came out on 8th November 2019. We weren’t fans of it, but it’s a pretty divisive game. With these numbers, it’s good to know that the world will still enjoy/endure Hideo Kojima-directed video games.

Monster Hunter Stories 2 Monstie Egg List & Guide

In Monster Hunter Stories 2, collecting eggs from Monster Dens and hatching them to create your army of powerful Monsties is the name of the JRPG game here. You can do these by raiding Monster Dens and getting eggs by searching their nests.
Keep in mind the following while you’re going egg hunting:

The heavier and smellier the egg, the better Monstie qualities and stats you’ll get.
If the egg is gold & shiny, that’s an egg you want to keep and hatch.
If you’re in the vicinity of the nest in a Monster Den, just check your surroundings for extra items to farm and pick up as well as deal with any Monster threats before going for the egg.
To get High Rank Monster Eggs, you need to finish the game.
Make space in your stable. You can do this by getting stable expansion plans from the Melynx Inc. dealer using bottle caps you can farm from Everdens all across the Monster Hunter Stories 2 world.

But what monsters will you get from the eggs you find? Here’s the full list of eggs and their associated Monsters. Keep in mind that not all the eggs listed here are available in the main story; you have to finish the game and play the post-game section to get these rare eggs.

Bethesda Talks About Fallout 76 Post-Communication

As it turns out, Fallout 76 is a mess of a game. While the idea’s good on paper, the execution left a lot to be desired.Â
After weeks of not saying much, Bethesda finally issued an official response in a form of a Reddit post. Technically, they did that yesterday but that Reddit thread was downvoted to heck.
Apart from the usual “sorry we f***ed up” speech, they announced that they will produce the following updates to the game next week on 4 December. Here’s what Fallout 76 users will be getting.

An increase in the Stash limit from 400 to 600.
Corrections to the boss loot distribution; after taking them down, players should receive two to three items depending on their level & difficulty.
Cryolator effects work as they should, so players hit by it are now Chillled, Frosted, or Frozen depending on how many times they’re hit.
Overencumbered players can respawn at the nearest discovered Map Marker instead of all the way at Vault 76.
Players will not get stuck in Power Armour. For now.

There’s also going to be another update after that, scheduled for 11 December. Here’s what you’ll get:

PC Additions:Â A Push-to-Talk setting for Voice Chat, 21:9 resolution support, and a Field of View setting are all being implemented on PC with this update.

SPECIAL Respec:Â After level 50, youâ€™ll be able to choose between a new Perk Card, or moving a SPECIAL point you had previously allocated.

C.A.M.P. Placement on Login:Â Your C.A.M.P. will no longer be automatically blueprinted and stored if someone is occupying your location when you log into a server. Instead, youâ€™ll receive a notification that your space is occupied. If you decide to find a new home for your C.A.M.P. on that server, it will be free to do so. However, if you donâ€™t attempt to place down your C.A.M.P., you will be able to switch to a new server where that spot is vacant and your C.A.M.P. will be fully assembled and waiting for you.

Bulldozer:Â This is a new C.A.M.P. feature that will allow you to remove small trees, rocks, and other obstructions so itâ€™s easier to create and place your C.A.M.P. when and where you want it. You can also use the Bulldozer to clear these items from the surrounding area to make your C.A.M.P. feel more like home!

Well, at least Bethesda is trying; the update is getting fair responses from the community so far. The full Reddit post is below:
We know youâ€™re frustrated and angry at the state of things right now, whether itâ€™s the issues youâ€™re running into in the game, or the lack of communication about fixes, updates, or news. To be clear, this account is run by us, Bethesda Game Studios community team. Yesterday we posted to let you know that weâ€™re still here gathering your feedback and, more importantly, working to get info from the team we can share. We didnâ€™t want you to think the silence meant nothing was happening. We’re sorry and understand this was not the right approach, and weâ€™ll work to make a better bridge between you and the dev team at BGS.
Weâ€™re posting an article today that has further information about the upcoming updates that were mentioned a few weeks ago. In addition, weâ€™re aiming to get you the patch notes for these updates quicker and will have them available for December 4thâ€™s update later this week. Probably Thursday or Friday. Weâ€™d like to make these articles weekly to make sure you know what the studio is working on as it relates to issues you may be experiencing, quality of life requests you have, or new features theyâ€™re excited to share.
Please take a look at the below to see what weâ€™re posting today on Fallout.com, and as always, let us know if you have any thoughts or feedback. This article covers high-level issues being worked on as the patch notes will go at length into whatâ€™s being fixed with each update.
December 4, 2018 â€“Â Next weekâ€™s update will bring an increase to the Stash limit, as well as a variety of performance and stability improvements, balance changes, and multiple bug fixes to the game. Weâ€™ll have full patch notes available later this week ahead of Tuesdayâ€™s update. Some notable issues being addressed in this update include:

Stash Limit Increased:Â We know many of you have been asking for an adjustment to the Stash storage limit, and weâ€™re happy to share that weâ€™re increasing it from 400 to 600. While this is somewhat conservative, we plan to increase the storage cap further once we verify that this change will not negatively impact the stability of the game.

Boss Loot:Â Players should correctly receive two to three items after taking down a boss, depending on the creatureâ€™s difficulty and level.

Cryolator Effects:Â Players hit with the Cryolator are now Chilled, Frosted, or Frozen depending on how many times they are hit. The duration of movement speed reductions applied by these effects have also been decreased from 2 hours to 30 seconds.

Respawning When Overencumbered:Â Weâ€™ve resolved an issue affecting players who die while overencumbered that only allowed them to Respawn at Vault 76. Now, overencumbered players will be able to respawn at the nearest discovered Map Marker.

Stuck in Power Armor:Â Weâ€™ve addressed an issue in this patch that could cause players to become stuck inside Power Armor. Weâ€™re also aware that there are some additional cases where this can occur, and we are actively investigating them.

December 11, 2018 â€“Â The next update after December 4 is currently planned for the following week. Like previous patches, it will include a variety of bug fixes, but weâ€™re also planning to bring some more notable changes and features to the game. You can catch a preview of these improvements below, and a full list of changes will be included in the December 11 patch notes.

PC Additions:Â A Push-to-Talk setting for Voice Chat, 21:9 resolution support, and a Field of View setting are all being implemented on PC with this update.

SPECIAL Respec:Â After level 50, youâ€™ll be able to choose between a new Perk Card, or moving a SPECIAL point you had previously allocated.

C.A.M.P. Placement on Login:Â Your C.A.M.P. will no longer be automatically blueprinted and stored if someone is occupying your location when you log into a server. Instead, youâ€™ll receive a notification that your space is occupied. If you decide to find a new home for your C.A.M.P. on that server, it will be free to do so. However, if you donâ€™t attempt to place down your C.A.M.P., you will be able to switch to a new server where that spot is vacant and your C.A.M.P. will be fully assembled and waiting for you.

Bulldozer:Â This is a new C.A.M.P. feature that will allow you to remove small trees, rocks, and other obstructions so itâ€™s easier to create and place your C.A.M.P. when and where you want it. You can also use the Bulldozer to clear these items from the surrounding area to make your C.A.M.P. feel more like home!

Thank you, and please donâ€™t stop letting us know how we can improve our communication and what else needs to be addressed in the game. Once we finalize the patch notes for the December 4 update, weâ€™ll be sure to post them here and all patch notes and weekly updates going forward.

Shin Megami Tensei 5 Miman Guide: How To Find Them All

In the new JRPG Shin Megami Tensei 5, there’s a creepy-ass shopkeeper called Gustave who asks you to seek out his army of Miman, little red imps that are scattered all over Da’at.
Yes, Atlus is resorting to the time-tested collectables sidequest where you find these creatures to get rewards, much like the owls from Tales of Arise. For each Miman you find, you will earn a small amount of Glory that you can use to spend on the game’s Miracles. Find multiples of 5 Mimans, and you’ll get big rewards.
There are four major regions in SMT5 where you can find these Mimans: Minato, Shinagawa, Chiyoda, and Taito. And there are 200 Mimans to find, with 50 of them in each region.
Some Help From A Cironnup
If you need some help, there’s a Cironnup (tiny dog with dog mask and bow-and-arrow) in each region who can help mark all the Mimans on the map. Of course, it’ll cost you Macca. Here are the locations of each Cironnup.

Minato – Located nearby the Diet building at the end of the region.
Shinagawa – At the mountain northwest of North Shinagawa Leyline near the end of the region.
Chiyoda – Located past the Otemachi Leyline, up some blocks.
Taito – Do a full clockwise loop in the Asakusa circular area, on the southeast side of Taito. The Cironnup is there.

Sea Of Thieves Goes PvP With Season 8 Update

Piracy lives on with Rare’s biggest pirate adventure game Sea Of Thieves, now with a new season that’s coming soon this month focusing on online ship combat against real-life players.
Launching November 22, Sea of Thieves Season 8 brings a number of updates and rewards to the game, chief among them the ability to engage in PVP ship battles vs other eager crews on demand. By interacting with the new Hourglass of Fate in a ship’s Captain’s Quarters, crews can pledge Allegiance to either the Guardians of Fortune or the Servants of the Flame and engage in PVP battles with crews pledged to the opposing faction.
Choosing to seek out combat vs a rival faction’s crew will see the player’s ship submerge under the sea to prepare for battle, before re-emerging within sight of an enemy ship to do battle. Sinking rival ships and engaging in other activities across the Sea of Thieves while pledged to a faction will increase your Allegiance, unlocking exclusive rewards and hidden secrets.
One does wonder if this is a zing at the delayed Ubisoft pirate game Skull & Bones, which has yet to set sail as it’s been delayed to March 2023. Sea Of Thieves Season 8 will go live on 22 November for PC and Xbox consoles. It’s also on Xbox Game Pass, but you don’t need me to tell you that.


Nioh 2 Tips & Tricks: How To Survive A Yokai-Infested Feudal Japan

This guide is still under development. The game just came out today, after all..
We’ve been playing Nioh 2 for quite a bit. It’s pretty fun so far, but it’s definitely not for the faint of heart. That is expected, considering that this game was made by the same folks who digitally murdered us with the rebooted Ninja Gaiden and Ninja Gaiden 2; the less said about the third one, the better.
What needs to be said repeatedly is that Nioh 2 is packed with both old and new mechanics that you need to get familiar with if you want to get past the first 3 or so hours. We’re here to help; after all, we did learn a lot by dying multiple times and spending a healthy amount of time exploring this twisted version of Feudal Japan.
Ki Pulse; Make It Mandatory

When you attack, you will drain ki faster than a yokai sex worker. Which is why you need to start pressing R1 after each swing or two from your weapon. We cannot stress how important conserving your ki is, much like how one conserves stamina in Dark Souls and Bloodborne.
Figure Out Your Stances
Nioh 2 features stances which you can switch between during combat.

Low stance: Holding your blade downwards allows for quicker attacks, this is useful for taking on crawling and slithering yokai
Mid stance: Swinging towards the body of your enemy allows for medium power attacks. A great all-rounder and good stance to start most skirmishes
High stance: Slamming your weapon down from above, the high stance allows for crushing attacks which are useful for chipping away at the Ki of your opponents. But be warned; miss one of these attacks, and you leave yourself open to the sharp end of your enemiesâ€™ blade

Buff Up Your Courage & Heart Stat
Ki regeneration is pretty important in Nioh 2; it makes you be more on the offensive since attacks use up Ki. So you’ll need to put more points in your courage and heart when you level up.
Get The Running Water Skill Type
Nioh 2’s skill tree lets you be who you want to be: either a sword-slinging samurai or a magic caster who can attack from afar. Having said that, save a few points to get the Running Water skill for all three stances when you start off.
This skill lets you trigger Ki Pulse automatically when you do a perfect dodge. Yes, you need to master the basic Ki pulse technique, but at least you have an alternate option.
Nail The Timing Of Yokai Burst Counters

What’s better than transforming into a powerful Yokai via shiftlink? Burst countering an enemy’s powerful attack using your current Yokai power. When an enemy does an attack that telegraphs a red flash, that’s your cue to perform a Yokai Burst. It’ll take a couple of deaths to nail it, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll have a great time punishing bosses.
Just think of this as another form of a Soulsborne parry/counter or that one Sekiro move where you step on a dude’s spear thrust and counter appropriately. Don’t forget: Burst counters use up Amrita energy, so don’t spam them unnecessarily.
When You Get A Soul Core, Run Back To The Nearest Shrine
Soul Cores are game-changers; you can imbue hard-hitting abilities after getting these from bosses or Dark Realm drops. Just make sure not to get too overconfident and find a shrine quick so you can purify that sucker. You do not want to drop that when you die somewhere just because you needed “one more run”.
Spend Your Prestige Points
When you’re deep in the game and completing objectives, do check what you’ve accomplished in the internal achievement menu. You can use Agyo and Ungyo prestige points to bolster your states
At The Start Of The Game, Pick Either The Wolf Or The Fish Guardian Spirit

Avoid the bird, because you’ll want to diversify your Yokai transformations. See, the first boss you defeat will reward you with a monkey Feral Yokai spirit (see above). The bird is a Feral spirit, so it’s redundant. At this point in the game, it’s good to have one more alternate option in case the Feral playstyle isn’t your thing.
Play In Action Mode
Not many of us want to get PS4 Pros, so it’s kind of Tecmo Koei to offer three modes of play that sort out the game’s frame rate in the option menu (before you start the game). Action Mode focuses on performance and locks the framerate at 60fps at the cost of image quality. Movie mode does the opposite: image quality over frame rate. Variable Mode unlocks framerate and fluctuates depending on the area and how intensive it is graphics-wise.
Nioh 2 requires you to be precise with your attacks, so we highly suggest you play in Action Mode. The game’s art style is already striking enough that you may not even care so much about the finer details. You should be worried about that one-legged hopping oni and burst countering its signature attacks with utmost precision.


[Rumour] Call Of Duty Modern Warfare Battle Royale Is Dropping In March

The battle royale mode for Infinity Ward’s Call Of Duty Modern Warfare is reportedly launching pretty soon. This comes after the earlier discovery of Call Of Duty Warzone (the name for Call Of Duty Modern Warfare‘s battle royale) found hidden within the base game’s files.
According to development sources from Video Games Chronicle, Call Of Duty Modern Warfare‘s battle royale will be dropping sometime in March 2020, the likeliest release date of which would be on Tuesday, 10 March 2020. This is because the game’s updates are usually deployed on Tuesdays.
Call Of Duty Modern Warfare‘s Warzone battle royale mode will reportedly instantly unlock for all owners of the base game via a currently-unavailable menu option.
However, the interesting bit here is that the battle royale mode will also be released as a standalone game for free, alongside an option for players to purchase and upgrade to the full version of Call Of Duty Modern Warfare if they want to.
In addition, the sources also indicate that marketing plans for Warzone will begin later this week when selected content creators in the US will be allowed to visit the studio to play the game’s battle royale mode ahead of a future official announcement.
Here are the details we know about Call Of Duty Modern Warfare‘s Warzone battle royale mode so far (including the map):

Support for up to a whopping 200 players in a single match.
Squad-based player system.
Includes a â€˜pingâ€™ mechanic similar to that of Apex Legends.
New gameplay mechanics such as Plunder, Killstreaks and more.
A map twice as large as Call Of Duty Black Ops 4 Blackout.


Creators Of Super Meat Boy Bring Us Dr. Fetus’ Mean Meat Machine Later This Month

Thunderful, Headup, and Team Meat are bursting with joy as they announce the much-anticipated arrival of Dr. Fetus’ Mean Meat Machine on multiple platforms. Brace yourselves for a mind-boggling, meat-mincing puzzle experience like no other, hitting PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X | S, Xbox One, Switch, and PC on 22 June.
This thrilling match-4 puzzler was showcased at the Best Indie Games Summer Showcase 2023, unveiling its unique twist that introduces an array of deadly hazards. Get ready to face buzzsaws, missiles, and a host of diabolical contraptions, all cooked up by the mischievous Dr. Fetus in his laboratory. Mean Meat Machine flawlessly blends the hardcore challenge that made Super Meat Boy famous with an intense action-packed gameplay, creating a one-of-a-kind gaming experience.

What does the game entail?

Let’s delve into the game itself. Dr. Fetus’ Mean Meat Machine picks up the story immediately after the events of Super Meat Boy Forever. Having meticulously studied Meat Boy, the villainous Dr. Fetus now possesses all the necessary data to engineer the perfect clone of our beloved protagonist! However, there’s a slight hitch: the DNA sample he collected is far from flawless, resulting in…well, less-than-perfect clones. In response, Dr. Fetus concocts a series of merciless test chambers to separate the good clones from the inferior ones. Initially, these specimens bear no resemblance to Meat Boy, but over time, that unmistakably grotesque yet endearing face emerges. The perfect clones are within reach… almost.
Prepare to navigate through familiar locations from both Super Meat Boy and Super Meat Boy Forever, such as the picturesque forest, the hospital, and the salt factory. Be captivated by the stunning backgrounds and animations crafted by the talented artists behind the original Super Meat Boy Forever. Additionally, immerse yourself in the wonderful soundtrack by RIDICULON, which accompanies your every move. With over 100 meticulously hand-crafted levels, brimming with creative traps and hazards, the challenge is set before you. Survive this hardcore rendition of a classic puzzle formula, and you’ll face an epic boss battle at the end of each world, truly testing your skills to the limit.
Tommy Refenes, co-founder of Team Meat, couldn’t contain his excitement, exclaiming,
“Expect a blast as you attempt to group clones together to create matches while skillfully dodging the hellish obstacles we’ve designed.”


Netflix Teases New Ghost In The Shell 3DCG Anime

Netflix has just dropped the first teaser of the new Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045 anime. Produced by Production I.G and Sola Digital Arts, the Netflix-exclusive anime will be released worldwide sometime in the second quarter of 2020.
[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbc8tdWe6lY&w=560&h=315]
Here’s the description on the show’s Netflix page:

In the year 2045, after global capitalism has defaulted, Japan’s elite Section 9 begins conducting covert cyber operations.

The director of the original Stand Alone Complex anime, Kenji Kamiyama, is co-directing the show with Shinji Aramaki of Appleseed fame. This isn’t the first time the two are working together as they also co-directed Netflix’s Ultraman 3DCG anime that was released earlier this year. Popular artist Ilya Kushinov is in charge of character designs.
As a fan of the original Ghost in the Shell film (not the Scarlett Johansson one), I’m a bit skeptical of anime in 3DCG instead of 2D. 3DCG in anime is often really choppy. However, it’s still really exciting to know that we’re not far away from getting another look into one of the most interesting cyberpunk worlds ever created.


Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Pyra & Mythra Amiibos Slated For July

The Amiibo collection of toys is expanding with these two additional waifus from the Xenoblade series.
Nintendo has announced the Pyra and Mythra Amiibos, the two main female characters from Xenoblade Chronicles 2, which is slated for a 21st July release. The Pyra and Mythra Amiibo will work as figures as you battle and improve in Super Smash Bros Ultimate. You can also get items for scanning them in the game, like cosmetic bonuses when used in Xenoblade Chronicles 3.

The Pyra and Mythra #SmashBros #amiibo will launch as a double pack on 7/21. Each amiibo unlocks a unique Aegis Sword weapon skin that characters using the Swordfighter class can wield in #XenobladeChronicles3. pic.twitter.com/EalLyGgPcK

In addition, the Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Noah and Mio amiibo are currently in development.


Horizon Zero Dawn PC Is An Imperfect Port But Devs Are Fixing It

The PC version of Guerrilla Games’ Horizon Zero Dawn is finally out, but it’s not perfect. Many players on Steam are reporting experiencing crashes and other technical issues that affect the performance of the game. It looks well enough, but apparently, the game runs like molasses on even powerful PC rigs.
However, the developer is already on the case lickety-split. In a post update on Steam, Guerilla Games said that they are extremely aware of the issues and is making the investigation of these problems their “highest priority”.
Things have gotten so bad that this critically-acclaimed game is currently having a “Mixed” reviews rating on Steam. That’s not ideal for a game that’s been said to be one of the best of this current generation, and especially egregious considering that there are many Xbox games like Grounded and Halo The Master Chief Collection doing so well on Steam.
Let’s hope these issues are resolved sooner rather than later. It’s a shame that PC gamers are currently experiencing a worse version of Horizon Zero Dawn when they should be getting a superior version.


Here’s What You Need To Know About Doom Eternal

QuakeCon 2018 is up and running, which also means that Doom Eternal is already revealed to the public. And by god it’s everything we want from a sequel to Doom (2016 edition). Blood, gore, arcade action, and a ton of big guns and baddies. And also some spiffy vertically-focused level design. That’s always good!
Here’s all the info we got from the QuakeCon 2018 reveal.

A Few Doom 2 Pals Will Return (Along With Some New Ones)
The annoying-as-heck Arch-Vile, Arachnotron, and Pain Elemental will be reimagined for Doom Eternal.Â The Arachnotron fires plasma shots and can climb on walls and ceilings. The Pain Elemental can still summon Lost Souls like in the previous games. We don’t know what this new version of the Arch-Vile can do, but most likely he’ll resurrect dead demons and summon pillars of flame to mess up your day.
There are also some new demons too, like flying gargoyles that spit out corrosive acid that stay on the floor and act as hazards, and a shotgun-wielding axe-waving giant called the Marauder. We can’t wait to see what else is in store for us to murder and Gore Kill.

You Have New Traversal Options
The Doom Slayer can use bars to swing from point A to B, can do a quick insta-dash. He also has a grappling hook on his Shotgun so he can hook onto enemies and lure himself onto their position. He can even wall-climb on certain spots just for the heck of it.
The devs decided to make him the “most powerful person in the game”, so why not make him able to jump from handlebars and also instant air dash his way around while also using his grappling hook ala Bionic Commando for leverage? Talk about bad-ass!
New Weapons, Of Course
A Doom sequel wouldn’t be presented without some new weapons, right? For starters, the Doom Slayer has a new switchblade on his glove that slices anything up close. He also has a new grenade launcher-type gun complete with time-delayed explosives, as well as an Assault Rifle with a 1-shot iron sights mode. Did we forget to mention that he has a new Doom energy sword to play around with now?

He also has access to shoulder weapons too; we get to see Doom Slayer use a flamethrower gun from his left shoulder.Â  We hope this replaces the side items from the first game; lord knows if anyone who played the Doom reboot uses them.

You Get To Sabotage Your Pal’s Campaign..
…by becoming a demon! Players can team up as demons to form a “slayer-hunting party”. Remember Dark Souls where you can sabotage your pal’s campaign? This is pretty much the same deal but in a first-person perspective. Keeping in the spirit of Doom’s deathmatch modes, this twist is a nice little addition to keep players on their toes.
It’s Coming Out For All Major Consoles
The sequel to Doom (2016) will be out for PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. There’s no release date or year yet, so fingers crossed that it’s next year. In the meantime, do admire the awesomely pretty screenshots below.


Street Fighter 6: Juri Move List & Guide

Street Fighter 6 is coming out on 2nd June, which is just less than a month away. As such, the game’s roster for its launch is set with 18 characters, each with their various playstyles.
In this entry, we’ll be focusing on Juri, a Taekwando fighter with a mean streak and a shady Street Fighter past since part 4. Who seems to love her feet a bit too much.
Note: This guide is still in development.
All inputs are in numpad notations. For example, Hadouken from player 1’s starting side is 236P.
Attack buttons are as follows: LP, MP, HP are light punch, medium punch, and heavy punch respectively. LK, MK, and HK are light kick, medium kick, and heavy kick respectively. None of this Fierce or Roundhouse bulls*** in Asia.
Info & video credits: Fighting Game Anniversaries, WoolieVS, FlawlessDeku, Capcom

Street Fighter 6 Juri Overview

In Street Fighter 5, the taekwondo sadist Juri relied on her Fuhajin special move to store Fuha stocks, which were essential for executing certain special moves. However, Street Fighter 6 takes a different approach by using these stocks to enhance her moves, rather than being a requirement for their execution. Juri is known for her excellent poking attacks, and a formidable throwing technique, and when she has those coveted Fuha stocks, she becomes a force to be reckoned with. Without these stocks, her special moves become riskier and less safe, underscoring the importance of strategically obtaining charges.
Her combos also deal good damage, she has a divekick, and is pretty mobile. If you’re a fan of characters who rely on footsie tools rather than fists, she’s an excellent choice.
Also, feet.
Play If: You want some mobility and good pokes, love footsie-heavy characters.
Avoid If: You prefer a more defensive character, you prefer characters with more health.

Street Fighter 6 Juri Move List

Special Attacks
Fuhajin: 214K. Perform an upwards kick while capturing ki from your immediate surroundings. Increases your Fuha stock by 1 upon completion.
Saihasho: 236LK. A roundhouse kick that fires a projectile low to the ground. Useful for checking your opponents, in combos, or as a way to start offensive pressure.
Ankensatsu: 236MK. Leap forward in a low arc and come down with an axe kick. Useful as a way to approach while avoiding attacks targeted at your feet, and can also be used in combos.
Go Ohsatsu: 236HK. Lunge forward and let fly a swift overhead roundhouse. Its long reach makes it effective when used for surprise attacks from a distance, and it can also be cancelled into from normal moves to make combos.
Tensenrin: 236P. Rotate like a windmill while unleashing a series of kicks. Can be used in a variety of situations to deal big damage.
Shiku-sen: During a forward jump, 214K. Divekick. Pretty fast.
Shiru-sen: 214K+K. After Shiku-sen. A series of kicks performed from Shiku-sen that tack on additional damage and knock the opponent down.
Super Arts
Sakkai Fuhazan (Level 1 Super Art): 236236K. Fire multiple ki blasts with a kick and follow it up with another giant ki blast to knock an opponent away. Easy to work into aerial combos against opponents who have been launched into the air.

Once every couple of weeks I get an email letting me know that thereâ€™s a finished episode waiting for me to watch it. Itâ€™s the best bit of the month.Â The SandmanÂ is being made, and itâ€™s… well, itâ€™sÂ The Sandman. Which is the best thing of all.
Of course, there are more delights and nightmares cast than Iâ€™ve listed here, and we have a few more secrets up our sleeves. I canâ€™t wait until you can start watching.”
All eyes are on this adaptation, as a lot of comic book fans have been waiting since the series ended a long while ago.

Official Apex Legends Cosplayers Shows Off Possible Upcoming Weapon

The last day of Twitchcon 2019 is happening today (in U.S. time) and Apex Legends fans have spotted something interesting in the Season 3 promotion event organised by Respawn Entertainment.

A few cosplayers have been hired by the company to portray familiar Legends Bloodhound, Lifeline, and Caustic plus newcomer Crypto. The Season 3 announcement trailer not only confirmed Crypto joining the roster but also that more weapons from the Titanfall series is coming to Apex Legends.
The cosplayer who’s dressed as Caustic was seen carrying around a gun that hasn’t yet appeared in Apex Legends and it’s also another weapon Titanfall fans are familiar with: the CAR SMG or simply C.A.R. in Titanfall 2. See for yourself:

In the Season 3 trailer, we saw Crypto using a Charge Rifle and now there’s this. It’s quite possible that the leak about more Titanfall weapons coming to Apex Legends might all turn out to be true.
Apex Legends Season 3 – Meltdown launches 1 October 2019 on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
