Before you dive in to the new drama series, here are some fun facts about James. James isn’t her actual last name Born Lily Chloe Ninette Thompson, the star wanted to pay respects to her late father, Jamie Thompson, by adopting Lily James as her stage name....

The Indian bowlers put on a show by restricting the visitors to just 136. Veteran pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar (2/9) gave the home team a great start by scalping the wickets of both the openers in the powerplay. Yuzvendra Chahal (1/11), Ravindra Jadeja (1/28), and Venkatesh Iyer (2/36) then continued to build on the pressure created by Bhuvneshwar Kumar. They strangled the run flow of the Sri Lankan batters in the middle overs....

Warning: This article contains spoilers! The story of After Life Tony Johnson, a news reporter for The Tambury Gazette, is insufferable after losing his wife Lisa to cancer. His cynicism, cutthroat tongue and nonchalance regarding survival starts to bother everyone around him, though they never give up on him.

Chennai-based eAthlete Vignesh Balaji successfully saw off some intense competition in the playoffs to reach the final. He was drafted into the four-member team as a result of finishing runner-up. The Indian contingent has performed exceedingly well over the last couple of months. In conversation with Sportskeeda Esports’ Yasho Amonkar, Vignesh shares his feelings about the AIFF eFootball Challenge, the growth of the competitive scene in India and describes his relationship with his fellow team members....

The Alan Wake franchise has been on a roll these past couple months. Alan Wake’s American Nightmare hit XBLA last month, and was received fairly well. See our full review for more. Also the PC version of Alan Wake launched on Steam last month bringing the series to those who don’t own an Xbox 360. It was confirmed by Remedy that the recent release on Steam increased the sales of Alan Wake to 2 million copies sold (between the PC and Xbox 360)....

It might be better to think of the new teaser trailer as more of an animated update of the previously released Alan Wake screenshot than as a truly new look at the game. Seriously, we’re talking about sixteen seconds worth of footage here. But any Alan Wake is better than no Alan Wake, right? Take a look at the teaser trailer below. Yep, that was Alan Wake alright. So now the wait begins for December 10 and the game’s unveiling on the Spike VGAs....

The story of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is familiar to most, and Tim Burton’s latest film version is evidence that the subject matter can be made into as dark a tale as the storyteller wishes. From the teaser trailer for Alice: Madness Returns, it is apparent that American McGee’s version is just about as dark as it gets. The sequel reintroduces players to Alice, eleven years after the death of her family and her resulting mental derangement that formed the basis of the first title - the same time span since the original’s release....

The concept of resolution parity is likely not going away any time soon, but there are developers who are taking strides to ensure multiplatform versions of their game look the same on both consoles. One such game, as we have just recently learned, is Alien: Isolation. In an interview with OXM, Creative Assembly’s Garry Napper reveals that the key differences between the Xbox One and the PS4 versions of Alien: Isolation will center on their feature-set....

[HTML1] Easily one of the most disappointing game franchises of the last decade, Alien brand titles were an underwhelming, and downright disappointing, entry in the Xbox 360 and PS3 console generation - a far cry from the high bar set by Alien vs. Predator back in the mid-90s. Despite claims from Rebellion Studios that Aliens vs. Predator was going to serve as a spiritual successor to the early days of first-person Xenomorph-themed shooters, most gamers found the end result underwhelming....

Having only been released a couple of weeks ago (on August 23), it might seem rather early for Aliens: Fireteam Elite to be getting such a big update. Yet developer Cold Iron Studios has announced that new content will be regularly supplied to the game, via seasonal patches akin to those you might see in Fortnite or Call of Duty: Warzone. Unlike those titles, however, Fireteam Elite is not free-to-play and so its extra content will not be gated behind a paywall or battle pass system....

For developer SuperBot Entertainment, though, there was a task even harder than playing favorites: balancing such a diverse roster. Whereas some characters in Battle Royale have been featured in fighting games before, a few had never even shown themselves capable of violence. To that end, SuperBot is shedding a little light on the development process – letting gamers in on how they balanced, licensed, and fine-tuned the game that releases later this year....

Nick Adams, a conservative author endorsed by Donald Trump, spoke against Mars, the company that produces M&M’s candies. In a video viewed more than 8 million times on Twitter, Adams ranted against the decision and said he was boycotting the company until Mars issued an apology and released an “all-male” package of M&M’s. “I am DONE with M&M’s! Not one M&M will pass my lips until Mars issues a formal apology and releases an all-male package of M&M’s to demonstrate their commitment to gender equality,” Adams tweeted with the video....

Why is Takeshi Kovacs “The Last Envoy” in Altered Carbon? To understand the concept of “The Last Envoy,” we must first understand some of the mythology of the Netflix series. At the center of Altered Carbon is a future where humans are spread across many planets, but this has given them a unique logistics problem⁠—how to move people quickly and efficiently from one world to another. Their solution to this is to create cortical stacks (known as Stacks)⁠—hard drives with people’s consciousness downloaded onto them in a form known as a Digital Human Freight or DHF....

Ronaldo has struggled to find the back of the net in La Liga, netting just twice in 10 games, but the forward has scored eight times in the Champions League. But Kovacic believes it is only a matter of time before the Portuguese superstar recaptures his best form. “Me and the rest of my team-mates, we see Cristiano as always in good shape,” the Croatia international said. “He’s the best player in the world and he has already scored many goals this season and he will score way more goals for sure....

The 40 acts they will be judging in the new all-star season of the NBC show come from across the world but only include one former America’s Got Talent winner. This is Michael Grimm, who won the show a decade ago. There are winners of regional versions from Germany, Romania and even Myanmar among the line-up. Among the AGT acts returning are shadow dance group The Silhouettes, mentalist Oz Pearlman, violinist Brian King Joseph and dance group V....

But last year’s Vanquish changed all that, by introducing some Japanese flair and adrenaline-fueled intensity to intelligently-designed combat. Luckily for 2011, Platinum Games is bringing the same attitude and spirit to their multiplayer brawler Anarchy Reigns, and these latest trailers introduce us to a few members of the game’s memorable cast. Game design is anything but easy, and the list of last year’s successes and failures show that it’s anyone’s guess who will end up on top of the heap....

The next installment of the social simulation franchise will be arriving this Friday to give players the opportunity to maintain and run your own private island. Players can do daily activities, invite friends over to your island or even visit theirs. In a time such as this, Animal Crossing: New Horizons is just what fans of the franchise - and those looking to sink hours into a game - will need....

The German sportswear manufacturer first hinted at the existence of this partnership last week, when it published an enigmatic tweet alongside a screenshot of the Animal Crossing: New Horizons logo. Following this tease, the official Nintendo of America Twitter account revealed a promotional image (on Monday, August 30) that spotlighted the very first item from this collection. Puma regularly collaborates with other brands, including the likes of Goop, Haribo, the Peanuts comic strips, Bratz and, in terms of gaming, 2K Sports....

Kelce, enlisting the help of fellow offensive linemen Lane Johnson and Jordan Mailata — as well as cameos from teammates Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown and Brandon Graham — will release an Eagles-themed Christmas album in 2022. The album is appropriately (and brilliantly) named, ‘A Philly Special Christmas." It’s not only a play on “really special Christmas,” but also a nod to the legendary “Philly Special” touchdown play vs. the Patriots in Super Bowl 52....

Zidane confirmed on Thursday he is leaving the club , just five days on from winning his third Champions League in a row, citing the need for “a change” for him and the team. The 45-year-old’s future had come under scrutiny in the weeks leading up to the Champions League final against Liverpool, with Madrid having failed to defend their La Liga title and crashed out of the Copa del Rey to Leganes....
