“We woke up from a nap with our 4-month-old son and we smell smoke in the air,” Stanley told KDVR. “We were like, ‘What is that?’ We go outside, we see flames over the hill. We were like, “We need to leave now.’ We gathered the things that we could … my husband tried to run to the neighbors. No one was home and we had no idea how we were gonna get out....
If you’ll remember Rovio was initially trying to get a Facebook port out back in May 2011, but circumstances were working against them — or perhaps they hadn’t cleared their launch party in Jakarta. Thankfully now the game is back on track and coming soon. First, and probably most decadent of all, Rovio will be hosting a launch party for Angry Birds (yes, a launch party) in Jakarta, Indonesia, statistically the country with the second most Facebook users....
[HTML1] Easily the most recognizable brand on the Apple iOS app store as well as Android marketplace, Angry Birds has become near-synonymous with smart-phone (and tablet) gaming. While countless other titles have offered unique gameplay experiences (based primarily on touch interfaces) for multi-purpose consumer devices, Angry Birds is one of the only series to make the jump into high-profit branding - with stuffed animals, t-shirts, and even an animated TV show on the way....
Adapted from the massively popular mobile phone game Angry Birds, Knock on Wood is a novelty tabletop board game which follows the same principle as the video game. Designed for two to four players, the game sees players picking cards with predetermined obstacles which must be built then knocked down. Points are awarded for the ensuing chaos, with the first one to 1000 being declared the winner. Currently priced at $14....
Starting July 3, a new update will add fresh features and characters to the Nintendo Switch game. Some of these features were teased in earlier data mines, but Nintendo has officially confirmed what players can expect in the month of July. They even put out a handy trailer that shows players what they’ll be able to do in the next month. The first new feature is the ability to swim and dive....
Version 1.1.4 of Animal Crossing: New Horizons is currently being pushed out to Nintendo Switch owners and according to the official Nintendo support page, the number of changes are small but may make the current event more bearable. Here’s the translated patch notes for Animal Crossing: New Horizons: ANIMAL CROSSING: NEW HORIZONS VERSION 1.1.4 PATCH NOTES Bug fixes Fixed a bug that caused Rex Kurushima to receive “Platinum Kogane” and pass different items to different models....
Last year, No Man’s Sky came from nowhere to build some buzz at VGX — and now it’s among the most anticipated releases set for 2015. The following three games might not have the name recognition as some of their more mainstream competition, but don’t be surprised if they’re carrying some considerable hype with them once their release date draws near. [HTML1] The space-based Adrift looks to take some cues from the hit movie Gravity, with a trailer that presents a first-person look at surviving in zero gravity....
What time will After Life Season 2 be released onto Netflix? The release date for the next batch of episodes from After Life Season 2 is April 24. As is customary for Netflix content, the episodes will be released at 00:01 a.m. PDT on Friday morning. When After Life 2 drops in your country will depend on your time difference from America’s west coast. In Gervais’ native Britain, for example, episodes will drop at 8:01 a....
Most recently, Gervais said of After Life Season 3 in a Twitter Q&A: “I’d love to do a season three, it looks like it’s going to go down a storm, so if this reaction carries on then yes.” Previously, at a press event, the actor and comedian said of doing another season: “I love the characters. I love all the actors in it. I love my character. I love the town....
The documentary is a prominent Raiders’ history lesson, and there are striking clips of the team’s greatness. While it’s not an exciting Raiders game, it will make a fascinating documentary. The legendary feud between former NFL commissioner Pete Rozelle and late Raiders owner Al Davis has paved the way for the NFL to grow into what it is today. The billion-dollar industry is larger than a national pastime; The documentary delves into the rivalry between the 2 men...
[HTML2] Although it’s been largely snubbed by AAA publishers of late, the survival horror genre is one that has stubbornly refused to die. Indie games like Slender, Amnesia: The Dark Descent and Outlast have proven that there is still a market for gamers who want horror games where the threats can’t be blasted away with a few bullets to the face. The last game based on the Alien movie franchise, Aliens: Colonial Marines, did not put much stock in the idea of chillingly quiet journeys down dark corridors without any weapons....
That’s no slight towards Alien: Isolation, mind you - a game that, by all accounts, has fans’ best intentions in mind - but rather it’s an indictment of the pre-order bonus concept. Locking content beyond what is ostensibly a $60 pay never goes over well with fans, especially when it’s something as awesome as this. It makes it harder for gamers to wait, lest they risk losing access to the content....
TimeGate Studios’ financial troubles date back even further than the Chapter 11 filing, to a court case with publisher SouthPeak Interactive, who alleged TimeGate owed them a substantial amount of money. In April, TimeGate lost their appeal against SouthPeak, and subsequently accrued a $7.35 million dollar debt to the publisher. TimeGate’s debt to SouthPeak was piled on top of money they owed Epic Games, Agora Games, and DJ2 Entertainment. In total, TimeGate owed somewhere in the vicinity of $50 million to various parties....
Arsenal have allowed as many as six first-team players to leave the club, including Gabonese forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Kenny emphasized that the Premier League is a physically demanding league. Hence, injuries to few players in the Gunners camp could derail their chances of finishing in the top-four at the end of the season. The former Leeds United stopper believes manager Mikel Arteta has turned things around after a bad start to the season....
Game Rant’s Jeff Schille reviews All Zombies Must Die! The developers at doublesix (Burn Zombie Burn, South Park Let’s Go Tower Defense Play!) are back with a brand new downloadable game for PC, PSN, and Xbox Live Arcade. All Zombies Must Die! fuses twin-stick shooter mechanics with role-playing elements, but is the resulting game greater than the sum of its parts, or is it just another drop of water in a veritable sea of zombie-themed shooters?...
Wenger: I wanted Kante Alli has been a driving force of Spurs’ Premier League title challenge this season, racking up 13 goals across 30 often-imposing and impressive displays in all competitions. Such exploits are rumoured to have brought the attacking midfielder into focus for the Bundesliga champions, but Pochettino paid little mind to such talk three days on from the mid-season transfer window closing. “That [rumours] always happens when the players are good or when the coaching staff is good, when things are going well,” he said ahead of Saturday’s Premier League home match against Middlesbrough, where second-placed Spurs will aim to end a sequence of back-to-back draws....
Two weeks ago, Bronson Reed returned to WWE and helped The Miz defeat Dexter Lumis in a Ladder match on the December 19th edition of the red brand. Last week, the company aired a Best of 2022 edition of RAW that featured interviews with Sami Zayn, Bianca Belair, and Cody Rhodes. Monday’s edition of RAW featured The Bloodline and two title matches, but The Miz was not featured on the show....
The finale of AHS Season 9 is titled “Final Girl,” with the season hinting since last week that only one character would remain alive by the end of Episode 9, which star Billie Lourd called a “blood tsunami” in an interview with HollywoodLife. “Final girl” is a term coined in Men, Women and Chainsaws, an academic book analyzing horror film tropes by Carol J. Clover. In it, Clover describes the “final girl” as “the character whose story we follow from beginning to end, and the one from whose vantage, even through whose eyes, we see the action; and it is she who, at the end of the film, brings the killer down (though more often by chance than intention)....
Both Italian clubs were eliminated from the Champions League following questionable decisions by the referee. And both are demanding the video assistant referee (VAR) be installed immediately in the top club competition. The VAR has already been introduced in Serie A this season and will also be used at the World Cup in Russia for the first time. Roma was eliminated from the semifinals 7-6 on aggregate despite beating Liverpool 4-2 on Wednesday....
With recent news of Chillingo, publisher of the original Angry Birds, being purchased for $20 million by EA Games, Rovio has decided to part ways and self-publish this Apple only exclusive title. There will be 45 new levels, which includes a story about the Golden Egg of terror. The new game will have creepy Halloween themed music, tons of pumpkins for the smashing, spooky environments and pigs with pumpkin hats....
