In case you didn’t know… Back on November 7th, PAC reemerged on Twitter after being silent from his social media account for over year, which was the time when he walked out on his former employer, WWE. The former WWE superstar kept an extremely low profile since his absence from the spotlight until he returned home to Dragon Gate back in October. The former WWE cruiserweight champion hasn’t said much but he recently showed off his jacked physique and PAC was instantly hit with claims of steroid use by fans, a good portion replied to the picture with syringe emojis and gifs of injections....

Toru Iwatani,the mastermind behind the original Pac-Man title, recently visited a game exhibition in Holland, and brought along a blue binder that blew the gamers (at least, the gamers that can remember the 80s) out of the water. What was in the notebook? Pac-Man concept artwork - featuring mock-ups of the game-screen, character design, etc. Seeing the pictures definitely showcases the simplicity (as well as reliance on addictive gameplay) in one of the most important video games in history....

George was steamed after being ejected from the Pacers’ game vs. the 76ers. He and Henderson were tossed late in the fourth quarter after Henderson elbowed George in the chin and George stepped toward Henderson. The skirmish was the second of the night between the two. It led to a second technical foul for George. What set off George as much as Henderson’s play was the seeming latitude Henderson received from the officiating crew of Pat Fraher, Marat Kogut and John Goble....

Saturday night, that meant overcoming their own mistakes and two late Wizards rallies. Thaddeus Young scored 22 points on 9-of-11 shooting, Bojan Bogdanovic added 18 and Indiana held on for a 119-112 victory. Domantas Sabonis added 13 points and 12 rebounds, while Darren Collison scored 11 of his 15 points in the fourth quarter to help the Pacers sweep a second straight back-to-back set despite 23 turnovers. “Winning the game by any means necessary,” Collison said....

That being said, fans may have recently received quite a comprehensive taster of what kind of gameplay they can expect from the anticipated PvE mode of Overwatch 2. The new seasonal mission Wrath of the Bride offers an intimate and highly replayable PvE mission with a clear narrative, likely sharing much of the same formula that the aforementioned PvE mode eventually will.

The month following Overwatch 2’s release has been rough for the game, as well as its fans. Server issues, long queues, and a plethora of bugs have consistently irked many players. Frequently regarded as one of developer Blizzard’s most egregious missteps, however, is in how they have chosen to handle the game’s monetization. The shop is selling cosmetics for what many fans consider exorbitant prices, and errors like a Brigitte skin selling for more than its bundle are only exacerbating the issue, as well as fans’ ire....

Kaplan revealed that the team’s focus during development was less on hitting a diversity standard and more about making the game inclusive for anyone who wanted to play. The end result, as he revealed, was a game universe that felt like home to gamers, regardless of their land of origin.

J.Lo and Shaq are joined by current NFL star Marshawn Lynch and former NFL player Michael Strahan, who is currently one of the hosts of Live! With Kelly and Michael. Strahan and Lopez investing money in a professional eSports team is somewhat surprising, but Lynch’s involvement makes sense, as the current Oakland Raiders running back is an avid gamer. Celebrity investors aside, the San Francisco Overwatch League team looks like it will be a force to be reckoned with....

While there are plenty of skilled Overwatch fans, few have been as consistently great when it comes to skin concepts as sunshxvine. The Redditor was responsible for releasing one of the best Overwatch skin concepts, as Lovebringer Mercy saw the medic being transformed in a major way. With pointy ears, pink hair, and a fancy outfit, the Valentine’s Day concept proved extremely popular with fans. As such, it makes sense that sunshxvine would make Mercy her target of choice once again, though this time around the look is quite different....

The controversy around McCree’s namesake came to light after several, inappropriate messages were made public. The real Jesse McCree served as a lead developer on World of Warcraft before moving over to join the Diablo 4 development team. McCree was one of several Blizzard employees joking about a hotel room called the “Cosby Suite” at 2013’s BlizzCon belonging to former Blizzard senior creative director Alex Afrasiabi. The room’s nickname, inspired by the sexual assault accusations against Bill Cosby, was due to Afrasiabi’s own reported harassment which was said to be so bad he needed to be physically pulled away from some female employees....

Gotham Knights has the potential to introduce a villain that has yet to be used in a video game, as the DC antagonist Owlman is still ripe for exploration. Boasting a skillset that compliments the game’s four main characters along with an interesting connection to their deceased mentor Batman, a twist that reveals Owlman as the mastermind behind the Court of Owls could lead to some great story moments and unforgettable boss battles....

And so competitive are the ultra low mortgage rates available from the best mortgage lenders (opens in new tab), this has happened even though home prices have increased faster than rents in 83% of those counties and faster than wages in two-thirds. “Home prices are rising faster than rents and wages in a majority of the country. Yet, home ownership is still more affordable, as amazingly low mortgage rates that dropped below 3% are helping to keep the cost of rising home prices in check,” said Todd Teta, chief product officer with ATTOM Data Solutions, the analysts behind the research (opens in new tab)....

Ronaldo: New contract is not my last The Real Madrid star, and favorite to win this year’s Ballon d’Or after winning both the Champions League and Euro 2016, recommitted to Los Blancos on Monday by extending his link with the club until 2021. Ozil played alongside Ronaldo for three years at Santiago Bernabeu, detailing his superior dedication before joking how he helped the Portuguese shine with his assists. “I’ve never seen someone like him,” he told Arsenal’s YouTube channel....

Rowan County District Judge Kevin Eddinger accepted the plea Tuesday for driving 75 mph in a 65 mph zone from attorney T. Gregory Jones. Hairston, who didn't attend the hearing, was required to pay a $40 fine and court costs. Hairston was cited for driving 93 mph on Interstate 85 on July 28. The school indefinitely suspended the basketball star hours later. It was the third off-court misstep this offseason for the junior, who was twice cited in a month while driving a rental vehicle linked to a felon....

“Most major league executives we’ve talked to believe Sandoval will wind up with a five-year deal worth about $100 million,” Cafardo reports. “That could be with the Red Sox, Yankees or Dodgers.” The switch-hitting Sandoval, 28, has been a decent offensive player throughout his career – this year he posted a .279/.324/.415 slash line with 16 home runs and 26 doubles. But his numbers have been going down and then there’s the other issue: his weight....

Sandoval, the San Francisco Giants' third baseman, enters the final year of his contract. His arrival in Scottsdale, Ariz., created ripples because of his new fitness. Henry Schulman, beat writer for the San Francisco Chronicle is among the impressed. "Sandoval looks as good as I’ve ever seen him. The reports of his good new shape are not exaggerated," Schulman wrote. Nicknamed Panda because of his girth, Sandoval let his weight creep into the upper 200s in 2013....

The country singer—who is the eldest daughter of the late Johnny Cash—said the incident occurred in a Kroger store in the Green Hills suburb of Nashville.

To note, players will need a “text-enabled mobile phone” in order to activate SMS Protect for Overwatch 2, and messaging apps like iMessage and WhatsApp cannot be used during the verification process. Additionally, phones with prepaid plans are not suitable for setting up the feature, nor are VoIP numbers that use IP networks for their functionality. Once a player has confirmed that they have access to a phone that meets the requirements, they should follow these steps to establish SMS Protect:...
