Despite the pessimism of the pundits, there is talent available at the position. Maybe not All-Pro talent, but players like Malik Willis, Desmond Ridder and Sam Howell have traits that franchises no doubt find desirable. Howell is an especially interesting case. The former North Carolina QB looked like a potentially transcendent prospect in his first season in Chapel Hill. He notched 38 touchdowns to just seven interceptions as a freshman....

For those unfamiliar with Splatoon’s big Splatfest events, they typically happen once a month or so and last for a weekend. Each Splatfest event makes players choose a team to support during the weekend, and based on player performance from each team (and a popularity vote), one team will come out on top at the end of it all. If a player’s chosen team happens to win, they’ll be offered special rewards....

Why is this happening? What’s driving Spotify’s apparent obsession with podcasts? Let’s find out… How Much Is Spotify Investing in Podcasts? The answer to this question is a lot. In 2019, Spotify pivoted to podcasts by launching an initiative called Audio First, as announced in a post on For the Record. Audio First has seen the company invest over $1 billion in podcasts, as revealed by The Guardian. That money has gone into buying exclusive rights to podcast content from superstar creators such as Michelle Obama, Joe Rogan, and Dax Shepherd....

Starfield supposedly has over 1,000 planets for players to explore, and that sounds pretty impressive, but it is nothing new in 2023. There have been numerous games that share this same concept, and Starfield’s gameplay trailer does not really do anything different from games like No Man’s Sky. It feels like Bethesda is late to the party with this one, and Starfield may suffer for it. RELATED: What to Expect from Starfield’s Upcoming Deep Dive...

The Lions, who opened as home dogs to the 10-2 Vikings this week, are favored by two points against Minnesota as of Sunday morning per BetMGM. The Lions, 5-7, lost to the Vikings 28-24 earlier in the season. It’s a testament to how the Lions are playing lately that they’ve moved the line to this point, and it might also be an indictment of how the betting public regards the Vikings....

It leans into hard sci-fi, a term its creator’s shy away from, though the series does depict very plausible tech and stays true to the laws of physics. And, like any good sci-fi story, The Expanse also features a compelling cast of characters. However, missing among the ranks of both the plausible tech and the compelling cast are AI and humanoid robots. So, for all its sci-fi steadfastness, why doesn’t The Expanse feature AI or robotics like most prominent sci-fi media does?...

Skyward Sword originally came out for the Wii in 2011, near the very end of the console’s life cycle. It had exceptional sword fighting and combat mechanics enabled by motion controls, but by the time it was released, the novelty of motion control had worn off for many consumers. Simultaneously, other areas where motion controls were more of a hindrance than a benefit ended up a lot more glaring than they might once have been....

Sound familiar? No, we’re not talking about the dire prognostications arising from last week’s hack attack that swamped parts of the Internet for a couple of hours. Rather, we’re talking about the “end of the world” Y2K problem that evaporated when the 20th century ended and the world kept right on going with only a few relatively minor glitches. Last week’s weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth about the likes of Yahoo and eBay and E*Trade being closed down for a couple of hours sounds remarkably like the Millennium Bug hysteria that infected much of the news media as 2000 approached....

The forward has been touted as one of the best talents but he has not managed to show his potential in full. With the Caf Confederations close, many expected the attacker to be involved, but the Soldiers let him go. Western Stima sign ex-Ulinzi Stars striker Ulinzi Stars head coach Benjamin Nyangweso has revealed to Goal why the player was released, “Otuoma is a good player who is really talented and we loved him....

Karun, played by Harish Patel, is valet to Kingo, one of the Eternals who has become a huge star in Bollywood during his time away from his fellow heroes. And Karun is by Kingo’s side at all times, assisting him and bringing joy into his life without even realizing it. So, what is it that makes Karun so special? Newsweek is here to tell you more. Warning: This article contains spoilers for Eternals...

A major reason for India losing the third ODI despite the usual Kohli heroics was the failure of India’s batting, especially of the middle order. The middle order consisting of Ambati Rayudu, Rishabh Pant, and MS Dhoni failed to rise to the occasion. With Kedar Jadhav set to come into the side straight away, there is a strong possibility of dropping Pant to accommodate Jadhav. However, in the post-match interview, Kohli had hinted at the possibility of leaving out a bowler to accommodate Jadhav, in which case both MS Dhoni and Pant could continue to remain in the playing XI....

The 2019 NFL MVP has remained away from the team as he enters the final year of his rookie contract. At this time, there is no potential contract extension in sight for him. However, that doesn’t appear to be on the Ravens’ side of things. It has more to do with Jackson’s side. The quarterback hasn’t yet engaged in contract negotiations with the team, so many are wondering whether he wants to stay in Baltimore or not....

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is a sequel to both 2018’s Marvel’s Spider-Man and 2020’s Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, so many people expected its first trailer in 2023 to provide insight into more significant elements. However, it provided no new narrative or gameplay for the title. Given the action-oriented nature of the title’s announcement, this second trailer makes for a strange way to kick-off the game’s release year.

The Golden Arches is famous around the world with its signature Big Mac and Happy Meals, but the lemon-flavored drink is taking on a life of its own online. The Sprite beverage brand, which is owned by the Coca-Cola Company, is merely served in the fast food chain. Despite it being available to buy from stores and supermarkets, numerous people seem to claim the sparkling soda seems to taste different when served from McDonald’s....

Question is, I thought I could still use the thumb drive but it won’t register. Was going to try to format it, but don’t know how. Any ideas what happened so I can avoid the same trouble in the future? Thanks.

This has proven that Skyrim was far from a one-hit-wonder. There is something to open-world games that really work magic for players. It makes exploration a big part of the game and gives room for discovering something new in every playthrough, and it can greatly increase the hours a player can put into a game, giving more entertainment per dollar.

Despite offering relatively similar pricing models, subscriber counts on Xbox Game Pass nearly triple the amount of subscribers on PlayStation Now. There’s a reason for that: On a surface level comparison, the two services may seem largely identical, but Xbox Game Pass has the advantage in several key areas. At the end of the day, these are two subscriptions with similar feature sets, but PlayStation Now can be particularly limiting in terms of how games are played, what games can be played, and for how long....

The league has continued to dance through the raindrops over the past week, rescheduling the Baltimore Ravens’ road game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, which was originally scheduled at 8:20 p.m. ET on Thanksgiving Day and will now be played on Wednesday at 3:40 p.m. ET, on three separate occasions. If the sight of two NFL teams colliding on a Wednesday is almost unprecedented—more on that later—so is the kickoff time....

As with any game liked by a lot of people, there comes a demand following the hype around its release dying down for more content. However, besides a sizable free update for Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice that added a boss rush mode, new skins, and the ability for players to leave messages around the map, the game didn’t receive any paid DLC. At the time, this was because FromSoftware wished to focus more on the behemoth that is Elden Ring, but looking back, it might be the case that Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice never needed DLC in the first place....
