Black Shark 3 Confirmed To Launch On 3 March 2020

The company teased that the Black Shark 3 will be 5G capable, which suggests that it may feature Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 865 flagship chipset. Besides showing off a very vague teaser on Weibo, the phone’s actual specifications, features, and design are still kept under wraps at this time. Leaker Sudhanshu previously reported that the Black Shark 3 might be equipped with 16GB of RAM, while another source suggests that it could also feature a 120Hz 2K QHD display....

Blizzard Bans Pro Hearthstone Player Over Pro Hong Kong Statement Faces Backlash From Community

Over the weekend, Hong Kong pro Hearthstone player Chung Ng Wai, known as “blitzchung”, caused a stir by openly supporting the Hong Kong protests. In a post-match interview on the official Asia pacific Hearthstone Grandmasters livestream, he shouted “liberate Hong Kong, revolution of our age!” Following that, Blizzard dropped the banhammer on Chung, preventing him from participating in official Hearthstone tourneys for a year. Let me explain why I am #BoycottBlizzard — Grummz (@Grummz) October 9, 2019 As a result, the Boycott Blizzard hashtag is now a thing on Twitter....

Bloodshot Review A Generic And Forgettable Action Flick

Bloodshot follows Ray Garrison, a fallen soldier who wakes up to find that his blood has been transfused with high tech nanomites that imbue him with super strength and the ability to regenerate like he’s goddamn Wolverine on steroids. It’s a decent idea for an origin story. The problem is, Ray Garrison as written by Jeff Wadlow and Eric Heisserer, does not work as a character. Why do we root for Spider-Man in Sam Raimi’s 2002 film?...

Bmw Ce 04 All Electric Motorcycle Goes Official In Malaysia Estimated To Cost Rm60K

As noted by its name, this fully electric scooter is being positioned together with the brand’s existing C Series electric mobility offerings. In fact, the “04” in the name is a reference to the 400cc scooter market segment which BMW Motorrad Malaysia currently caters to through the C 400 X and C 400 GT. Despite the relation to the 400cc class, BMW Malaysia has confirmed to Lowyat.NET that owners don’t need to own a B full licence to ride the bike....

Borderlands 3 Micro Transactions To Be Purely Cosmetic Will Not Feature Free To Play Junk

Gearbox Software CEO Randy Pitchford said the microtransactions will be “just as we did in Borderlands 2.” That said, Game Informer reports that he did say the game “won’t have microtransactions” during the actual live event, which caused a fair bit of confusion. https://twitter.com/DuvalMagic/status/1123696816380436480 There’s also been a bit of back-and-forth between Pitchford and Andy McNamara, Game Informer’s Editor-In-Chief, over the words used too. It would be an interesting read if it wasn’t so fragmented, but the gist of it is regarding the meaning of the term “microtransactions” and its improper use during the live event....

Borderlands Movie Casts Ariana Greenblatt As Tiny Tina

For anyone who needs an introduction to Tiny Tina, Borderlands 2 introduced her as the “World’s Deadliest 13 Year Old”. And sure enough, the character has a strange passion for explosives. That aside, let’s just say she has a less-than-stable mental state. Though the inclusion of the character would mean that the Borderlands movie isn’t necessarily based on the first game anymore. — Randy Pitchford (@DuvalMagic) March 1, 2021 I must also say, I’m not familiar enough with Greenblatt’s work to be able to decide if she’s a good fit for the Borderland movie....

Call Of Duty Modern Warfare Warzone And Black Ops Cold War Won T Fit In A Standard 500Gb Ps4

Alongside the announcement of the new season, Activision published on its blog saying that a standard PS4 with its base 500GB hard drive will not be able to fit both Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War and Modern Warfare with Warzone. You may even have to delete game modes you don’t play in order to download the updates. In many ways, this is basically a repeat of a report from back in October 2020....

Call Of Duty Modern Warfare Ii May Have A Morality System

These leaks were shared by Twitter user @RalphsValve, which VGC has reportedly partially verified.

This Modern Warfare II is claimed to feature more realistic gore, weapon jamming animations, and quivering voices with heavy breathing during call-outs, among others....

Call Of Duty Modern Warfare Gunfight Mode Open Alpha Starts On 24 August Only On Ps4

Unlike the standard multiplayer modes of Call of Duty, Gunfight Mode has you start each match with a loadout randomly picked from a wide range of preset loadouts. Your opponent will be using the same loadout as you, so it will be down to the skill of the players. There will be five maps available during this open alpha. That said, there’s a small catch to it. The PvP multiplayer open alpha is a PlayStation 4 exclusive....

Cancelled Boba Fett Game Footage Appears Online

The footage is pretty rough, as you’d expect from a project that was never completed. But it shows what the game could have been. It had an Uncharted-esque scripted chase sequence, which is strange in its own way, seeing the bounty hunter without his jetpack. Following that, we see bits an pieces of what a shootout would’ve been like, if the game had more time in the oven. It was nothing mind-blowing, even for its time....

Captain Marvel Analysis Discovering What It Means To Be A Hero

Hell, even Michael Bay’s Transformers films are imbued with metanarratives. One is seen in the every-man American defending his way of life through the power of aiding Autobots or national armed forces — a call to traditional masculine roles and American nationalism. The male sexual fantasy of Mikaela speaks to the male gaze and the excessive use of product placements can be deconstructed as Bay selling the idea that films are more commercial products than high art....

Corsair Expands Portfolio With Acquisition Of Scuf Gaming

This is the second acquisition made Corsair this year. Prior to Scuf Gaming, the PC accessories and peripheral brand acquired enthusiast PC builder, Origin PC, back in July. Of course, a year before that, the company bought out the Elgato Gaming division. And with it, the brand’s entire video streaming equipment and video capture cards. The buyout is expected to be completed within the next 30 days. But just as it was with the previous acquisitions, however, Scuf Gaming will still be operating as a separate brand and also retain its current place of employment....

Cybercriminals Sneak Backdoor Into Windscribe Vpn Installer

Cybersecurity company Trend Micro reports that these compromised installers are obtained outside of official sources. Basically, if you didn’t get it from Windscribe’s website, Google Play Store or Apple App Store, there’s a chance that the installer you got is unsafe. While the compromised installer installs the real Windscribe VPN, it also sneaks in a backdoor during the process. This particular backdoor can do the usual things like downloading, executing and updating files, as well as take screen shots....
