Here's How the Karl Anderson/New Japan/WWE Crown Jewel Situation Was Resolved

Image
The scheduling conflict involving Karl Anderson, WWE and New Japan Pro-Wrestling has been resolved for this coming weekend. For those who missed it, here are the highlights -- Karl Anderson (and Luke Gallows) signed a new WWE contract and arrived on Monday Night Raw on Oct. 10 despite still being the NEVER Openweight Champion in New Japan. Instead of having him stripped of the title, it was reported that Anderson and Gallows would continue to appear at New Japan events up through Wrestle Kingdom 17 next January . But even though he was booked to defend the title at the Battle Autumn event in Osaka on Saturday, Anderson was still announced for a six-man tag match at WWE's Crown Jewel in Riyadh . Anderson rejected the New Japan booking on social media while NJPW officials continued to insist the match would go on as planned. All the while, insider reports indicated WWE and New Japan were on amicable terms over the situation and that Anderson's Twitter behavior was mere

Modern Warfare 2: How to Change Your Name to a Different Color

Image
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is the latest entry in the iconic series and the game was released worldwide on 28th October for players to enjoy. The game has brought forth an immersive experience for players and introduced them to incredible graphics and realistic combat mechanics. However, since its global launch, Modern Warfare 2 has had its fair share of problems including server connection errors, game crashes, and audio issues. Additionally, hordes of players who purchased the game complained of not being able to access it and some of them also got wrongfully banned in the span of three days. However, this does not distract us from the fact that Infinity Ward’s Modern Warfare 2 has new features to offer including a new way to tune weapons and unlock camos within the game. One of the most apparent features you must have spotted is certain players having colorful names in the lobby. It is not a cheat or a hack and you can also change your name’s appearance in Modern Warfar

Meta Quest Pro review: A next-gen headset for the VR faithful

Image
Currently, few things make people's eyes roll harder than the metaverse. As someone who grew up reading sci-fi novels and dreaming about what virtual worlds might look like in the future, that's kind of sad, but I get it. Mark Zuckerberg is so thirsty to make those dreams a reality that he’s betting billions of dollars and the survival of his company on the metaverse being The Next Big Thing. Meanwhile, the average person is still wondering what the point of having a VR headset really is, aside from maybe smashing some polygons in Superhot or Beat Saber. However, even though it feels like VR headsets have been around forever, we're still very much in the early days of virtual reality. It was only a couple of years ago when the company previously known as Facebook brought VR to the masses with the Quest 2. And now with the Quest Pro, Meta is trying to foster a new baseline level of tech designed to make digital worlds feel more lifelike, intuitive and immersive. An

The Roku Channel , who are hosting the AMA, say in the announcement that the pair will be live on Reddit tonight at 8 p.m. ET.

OUYA relic Amazing Frog? hops onto Android with hugely updated port

Image
The ill-fated OUYA was a brave, if poorly executed, attempt at making Android a major gaming platform against the likes of PlayStation and Xbox. While it didn’t pan out, the platform did result in a number of exclusive games on the platform. One on these games was Amazing Frog?. A Goat Simulator-esque wacky sandbox game, there’s not much to write home about with the Amazing Frog?. However, the game is finally launching on Android proper, not staying stuck on the games industry’s aging paperweight. Amazing Frog? On Android Launching on November 1st, the all-new version of this wacky adventure will be a premium experience on mobile. Currently, there’s no price for the Android port. However, seeing as the iOS version is priced at $5.99, we expect this port to be priced around the same. This new port will feature mechanics and locations from the latest PC version of the game. This means that you’ll be able to explore different worlds, wear dozens of outfits and terrorise th

Image
