Once a powerful supporter of Microsoft and helping to produce games like Shadow Complex and the Gears of War franchise for the Xbox platform, Epic Games co-founder Tim Sweeney has come out against the plan, going as far as accusing Microsoft of trying to monopolize and control the PC market. Specifically, Sweeney seems to be targeting his anger at the Universal Windows Platform as it is an application which allows studios to develop one version of the game that is able to be run on all current Microsoft devices....

Social media was soon replete with screenshots of FIFA 23 listings on the Epic Games Store and purchase receipts, both showing a price of 4.80 INR. The golden opportunity was grasped by many before the price was rectified and changed. Those who did get it were worried that Epic Games might decide to revert the purchase, given the magnitude of it. However, the recent email lays rest to any such speculation....

From now until September 23 at 10:00am CT, Epic Games Store users can claim Speed Brawl and Tharsis for their collections. Then from September 23 until September 30 at 10:00am CT, they can snag The Escapists. Usually the Epic Games Store gives away two free games at a time, so it’s possible that The Escapists will be joined by a surprise title next week, kind of like how Nioh: The Complete Edition was a surprise EGS free game last week, though that remains to be seen....

Every year at this time, the Epic Games Store begins giving away free games every day instead of every Thursday.

The Epic Games Store is no stranger to giving way multiple titles in a week. Throughout 2021, the store has released 2 and sometimes 3 free titles on a Thursday, making this year arguably its most generous yet (despite not having even hit the Christmas free games events the store tends to run). It also seems like Nioh’s sudden appearance as a free game might link to its sequel being included in the recent September Savings event that the Epic Store is currently running....

For December 22, the Epic Games Store is offering up a tactical RPG from 2018, one which received generally positive reviews—Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden.

They are sent on this mission by their Ark’s Elder (home’s leader), as Hammon is needed to keep the Ark running....

Breslau became Wroclaw. For the first time since the Middle Ages the Poles were back in control; the city was in “recovered territory.” Any German civilians who’d survived a devastating 14-week Russian siege were expelled to find new homes in the West. In their place came Polish refugees, themselves ousted from territory grabbed by the Soviet Union hundreds of miles to the east. German street names vanished, German statues were toppled, priceless German books from the university library were destroyed....

At the start of the exercise, known as Dark Winter, the group heard that patients had turned up at hospitals in Oklahoma, Pennsylvania and Georgia, complaining of aches and fevers and exhibiting unusual rashes. Each patient had visited one of three shopping centers, and lab tests confirmed that they didn’t have flu or measles. They had all contracted smallpox, an ancient scourge that killed more people than war did during the 20th century but hadn’t been seen since 1977....

As the start of the season nears, we take a look at 5 reasons that make Manchester United title contenders for the upcoming season. 1) Jose Mourinho The “Special One” took over the United hot seat this summer with a point to prove. After winning the league title with Chelsea in 2014-15, the team started last season in a disastrous fashion which left them very close to the relegation zone and led to Mourinho’s departure from the club....

The result keeps the champions just two points off the bottom of the table and facing a tough battle to avoid relegation – which would make them the first team in the Premier League era and since Manchester City in 1938 to go down the season after winning the top-division title. We bring forward the talking points from a feisty game at East Midlands: #1 Leicester start the brighter of the two teams in a competitive game The hosts began the game well, with the likes of Riyad Mahrez using his fleet-footedness to give makeshift left-back Marcos Rojo a stern examination....

Manchester City will seek revenge with a win, after Arsenal easily cruised past a weak Manchester City earlier in August when the sides met in the Community Shield. Arsenal Arsenal’s opening day narrow win over Crystal Palace was followed by two consecutive away draws at Everton and Leicester City. A win over Manchester City can put their season right back on track for the Gunners. Manager Arsene Wenger speaking in the press conference ahead of the game said “We have to accept our schedule and deal with it....

Calleri was earlier linked with a move to clubs such as Inter Milan, Sevilla and Barcelona after a successful spell on loan at the Brazilian club São Paulo....

A befuddling tournament boundary count rule ideally shouldn’t be in play when England and New Zealand face off in the first semi-final of the T20 World Cup at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday, November 10. But if the history between these two teams suggests anything, it’s to expect the unpredictable. That fateful day at Lord’s was almost two and a half years ago, but it feels like yesterday....

England have been the most consistent team in the limited overs format in the recent past, and that’s been mainly due to their power-packed batting lineup. Jos Buttler played a sensational knock of 115 from just 55 balls and was rightfully declared the man of the match for his efforts, and the other batsmen are all extremely dangerous too. With the ICC World Cup in sight and the batsmen in such good form, the hosts would be one of the favorites to win the trophy....

New Delhi, Jul 11 (PTI) In a departure from the norm, the Mission Olympic Cell today included the entire Indian hockey team in the TOP scheme, rewarding the players for their silver medal-winning performance at the Champions Trophy.
