Youtube Removing Verification On Lots Of Channels

YouTube’s new channel verification system is already causing controversy. The new system, which YouTube has only just begun, has already resulted in many previously verified YouTube channels losing their status. Channel verification can play an important role in YouTube’s recommendations and search results, but having channels unverified could lead to some losing their revenue stream. YouTube, however, firmly believes its new verification system is necessary moving forward. Previously, YouTube’s verification system was simple, but altogether unhelpful....

Zombie Army 4: Dead War is poised over the February releases, ready to fire. With just a few weeks to go, Rebellion has shared six minutes of footage breaking down the zombie horde’s worth of content on offer.

Why Everyone Loves Hideo Kojima Explained

Hideo Kojima might seem to be on a roll lately, but it would be far more accurate to say that this has been ongoing since the late 1980s. That length of time may come as a shock to some who may only recently know the man for his constant promotion of the hit game Death Stranding, but the reality is that Kojima is no overnight sensation — he is a methodical creator that has worked tirelessly to create some of the most memorable games in history, and it is no wonder that he is held in such high regard....

Why Is The Gun Devil So Powerful In Chainsaw Man Explained

Among the many villains introduced over the course of the Chainsaw Man anime and manga, the Gun Devil remains one of the most frightening. A manifestation of humanity’s fear of Guns, it can decimate a population in a matter of seconds and overwhelm almost anyone who tries to hunt it down. As you get further into the series and see the full scope of its influence though, you might start asking yourself: Why is the Gun Devil so powerful in Chainsaw Man?...

Wii Similarities Won T Stop Playstation Move

A quick glance over reactions concerning Sony’s new PlayStation Move would give you a pretty bleak outlook. One of the oft repeated concerns (or insults, on many boards) is just how similar it is to Nintendo’s Wii. From hailing the upcoming release of the PlayStation Move as a revolution in gaming to adding a very familiar nunchuck style sub-controller to the device, well… You can kinda see the resemblance. One of the most interesting points to remember is that we already have the Wii; granted it doesn’t do high definition, but that hasn’t stopped it becoming one of the best selling consoles ever, as well as the console most likely to be found in homes across the world....

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Sale Offers 05 Daily Price

Microsoft has gone out of its way to offer Xbox Game Pass Ultimate at a decent-if-not-great price so far. Not only has Microsoft offered up to 3 months of free Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription for new subscribers, but it also allowed Xbox players to upgrade their Xbox Live or Xbox Game Pass subscriptions to Ultimate for no extra cost. But as good as those deals have been, they’re nowhere near as great as the new $....

Xbox Series X Titles May Be Delayed Even If The Console Launch Is On Schedule

Xbox boss Phil Spencer has communicated that Xbox Series X titles may be delayed, but the console itself is still on schedule for a holiday launch (via MCV/Develop). This is in line with what had been stated about Microsoft’s intentions for late 2020. “We are committed to launching Holiday 2020,” said Larry Hryb, director of programming for Xbox Live. However, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot expressed that the developer would adjust its releases in accordance with a possible delay of the Xbox Series X or PlayStation 5....

You Can Make Ratatoskr Lose It In God Of War Ragnarok And It S Hilarious

Santa Monica Studio’s recently-released God of War Ragnarok is full of cute and interesting Easter Eggs, and there’s one related to Ratatoskr that is rather hilarious. The mythical squirrel voiced by ProZD (SungWon Chao) is normally rather friendly and polite. He can be summoned by hitting a chime, but if you do that so much, he’ll start getting weirded out. He’ll even dismiss the possibility that such behavior may really irritate him, but if you keep going… I won’t spoil it as it’s way too hilarious....

Yu Suzuki Makes Final Hours Shenmue 3 Kickstarter Plea

Shenmue creator Yu Suzuki has released a “special message of thanks and inspiration” as the Shenmue 3 Kickstarter heads into its final hours. With 15 hours remaining the project stands just shy of $5.5 million, and tantalisingly close to setting a new video game record on the funding platform. If $5.6 is reached the game will set a new record in the video games category, overtaking Bloodstained. The project will, however, need to reach $6 million if fans want to see an advanced battle system implemented....

Why The Godfather Almost Didn T Happen

The Godfather is one of the greatest movies of all time. Directed by Francis Ford Coppola, it was made on a $6 million budget, completed ahead of schedule, and was the first film in history to take in a million bucks a day. It was nominated for 11 Oscars, won three, and changed cinema forever. That seismic cinematic shift would never have happened if Paramount had their way. The studio suits hated everything about The Godfather until Michael Corleone put one in the head and throat of a police captain, getting brains all over his ivy league suit....

World Of Warcraft Classic 10 Awesome Best In Slot Items

An interesting quirk of playing endgame in World of Warcraft (or WoW for short) Classic is all the new acronyms you learn. Gone are the days when all you needed to know was PVE, PVP, and brb (be right back). As you progress through the high-level dungeons and raids you start to see nicer gear drop, and the term “BiS” starts floating around. This stands for “Best in Slot” and it’s the best piece of gear you can have in that particular slot (pants, trinket, weapon, hat, whatever) at your level....

Xbox Scarlett Lockhart And Anaconda Are A Powerful Couple Claims Report

Microsoft’s next generation of hardware will be a force to be reckoned with, based on leaked system specifications for “Lockhart” and “Anaconda” (via Windows Central). We had a hunch that Project Scarlett would not be one product, but an umbrella term for one pricey console and one economical console. According to Windows Central’s sources, that’s true. “Lockhart” is the former and “Anaconda” is the latter. Though, I wish companies would use cut and dry codenames for their super-secret projects....
