It’s emotionally affecting in a way the games aren’t, but uses the games as a foundation and expands upon them in surprising ways. It also handles references and Easter eggs from the games with refreshing restraint. The first season of Castlevania almost feels like the result of someone fusing the DNA of series like Avatar: The Last Airbender and Game of Thrones. It’s beautifully animated with jaw-dropping action sequences, but also has a high amount of gore and sexual content at times....

Each streaming service has its own set of pros and cons. Netflix, Disney Plus, HBO Max—these tend to be the main players, and while each one of them is somewhat comparable cost-wise, there are a few other advantages and disadvantages to consider, too. At the end of the day, it depends on what you want to watch and how you want to watch it. Keep reading for our comparison of Netflix, Disney Plus and HBO Max—from cost and content to what’s available in HD versus what’s not....

Williams was treated to cortisone shots and received platelet rich plasma injections in both ankles and will sit out for the team's Wednesday game against the Golden State Warriors. Brooklyn also plays the Heat on Friday and Raptors on Saturday. The Nets star, who has had chronic ankle problems, will be re-evaluated at the end of the week.

The Nets announced on Dec. 17 that they would allow All-Star guard Kyrie Irving to return to the team as a part-time player (only playing in road games) amidst all of the roster absences due to the league’s health and safety protocols. Irving, himself, immediately entered the league’s health and safety protocols following that announcement but cleared protocols on Dec. 28. MORE: When will Kyrie Irving make his Nets debut?...

On the opening day, defending champions ATK and last year’s runners-up Kerala Blasters FC could not break the deadlock in Kochi. To kick off their campaign, both the teams were configured in a 4-2-3-1 formation at the Indira Gandhi Athletic Stadium. Jamshedpur FC coach Steve Coppell fielded both Sameehg Doutie and Trinidade Goncalves along with Izu Azuka as the lone striker upfront. NorthEast United FC gaffer Joao Carlos Pires de Deus played Seminlen Doungel and Odair on the flanks with Marcinho playing just behind striker Danilo....

It is also a key causative factor for mood disorders such as depression and anxiety, and is often associated with high blood pressure. However, until recently, it was not clear as to whether neuroticism caused high blood pressure or vice versa. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that nearly half of all adults in the U.S. have hypertension, defined as a blood pressure at or above 130/80 mmHg....

The new mechanic allows guardians to either make weapons from scratch or Reshape them to change some of their core abilities and stats. However, to be able to craft weapons or tweak them, crafting materials and resources will be required. The new expansion mechanic brought with it a variety of new resources to the fore, with the Neutral Element being one of the core ingredients required for crafting. The resources themselves are not that hard to get a hold of....

“Nevada, a state in one of the richest countries in the world, has painted social-distancing boxes on a concrete parking lot for the homeless to sleep in,” wrote Twitter user Social Distancing Mancino Williams, above a picture of the parking lot. The pictures came after a Catholic Charities homeless shelter reported that a homeless man who used its services tested positive for the coronavirus, which forced the shelter to move to an outdoor location in Las Vegas....

That’s exactly what happened Friday to Nevada true freshman Brandon Talton after he nailed a 56-yard field goal as time expired to lift the Wolf Pack to an improbable 34-31 win over Big Ten foe Purdue. The story is improbable on multiple levels. First, the Wolf Pack were down 17 points at halftime and still trailed by 17, 31-14, midway through the third quarter. Then, when the Wolf Pack scored with 52 seconds to play to make it 31-30, an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for excessive celebrating pushed the PAT back an additional 15 yards....

Lauded for their punk-rock attitude towards game development, the news that Neversoft would be combining with Infinity Ward to become a sort of “super studio” came as a blow to many gamers’ sense of nostalgia. Having officially closed their doors - while the news is sad - the team at Neversoft has managed to send the studio off in the most apt way possible. According to an image posted to Twitter by Matt Canale, the team commemorated their brand by setting fire to their iconic impaled eyeball logo with a volley of flaming arrows....

The 26-year-old Australian scored the winning goal against Newcastle last weekend after laying on an assist for the Terriers in their opening matchday victory against Crystal Palace. Terriers 15/4 to beat West Ham The newly-promoted club are flying high in second position on the table with with seven points from three matches and Neville believes Mooy will have caught the attention of other clubs after his blistering start to the season....

Ronaldo: I know I am important The 31-year-old joined United from Sporting CP in 2003 and would develop into one of the best players in the game at the Premier League giants before leaving for Real Madrid in 2009. However, Neville has made it clear the United players did not make things easy for the prolific attacker in his first few years at the club and he feels that time has made Ronaldo into the player he is now....

With releases from arguably the two largest multiplayer franchises, Halo and Call of Duty dominating the online community it’s difficult to come late to the party. Unswayed, Ubisoft is following the lead set by Black Ops and releasing their very own live-action commercial. The ad seems to be aimed at getting the couch-sitting masses interested in just how different the stealth combat of the series is from the explosions and gunfire we’ve gotten used to....

This is the first time I can remember that the Japan based Sony has debuted a color in the US first. I purchased the Satin Silver and Ceramic White models from Japanese importer, Play-Asia.com. They cost a little extra, but it was nice to rub it in my friends faces. Pink is joining a numerous rainbow of colors that Sony already produces. Currently the lineup consists of the standard Black, Satin Silver, Ceramic White, Blue and Red....

Bioware’s epic action/RPG and Game Rant’s #1 most anticipated game of 2012 is now stepping into the world of Facebook “gaming,” with the application titled Mass Effect 3: Mission Command. Calling it a ‘game’ might be a stretch however. It essentially starts as a friend-spamming application that, if you have enough friends who participate, will unlock various perks mainly geared towards Xbox 360 players. According to a promotional invite on Facebook, players decisions will determine their rewards – essentially, interacting more with the app will give players more chances to ultimately earn the grand prize, a custom Paragon or Renegade Xbox 360 with Kinect....

In a change of pace from the previous three games, Mass Effect 4 focuses on exploration. Fans will still build their team and shoot a myriad of species in the face, of course, but this time BioWare really wants to take advantage of “the depth and diversity” of the Mass Effect universe. The goal, they say, is a game where “exploration is as satisfying as combat.” To this end, the worlds in Mass Effect 4 will be absolutely massive....

Need for Speed Hot Pursuit looks better with every trailer, and today we have a new one showing what the street racers of Secrest County are up against. So far we’ve seen a lot of the new Criterion developed title. Last week, Criterion Producer Matt Webster explained the Autolog feature, and we’ve witnessed a few of the exotic cars gamers will get to unleash this November. However, we haven’t seen much of the cop cars in the new Need for Speed....

It may have seemed like the Rock Band era was over when DLC packs stopped being released two years ago, but apparently developer Harmonix isn’t quite done with the party game yet… Between 2007 and 2013, Harmonix released DLC packs for the Rock Band games for 280 consecutive weeks. Needless to say, the active Rock Band community was fairly heartbroken when the weekly releases went on an extended hiatus two years back after Don McClean’s “American Pie” was added to the store....
