Jane and her husband loved the house they bought in central Los Angeles in 2022, until they noticed the cats. Lots and lots of cats. At any given time, more than a dozen would be lounging in their yard, peeing on their packages, leaving dead birds in the grass and fleas on their outdoor furniture. “The amount of cat feces we’re exposed to is truly insane,” says Jane, who asked that her real name or the name of her neighborhood not be used because of the ensuing battle over feeding the cats.

A family in the neighborhood had left their pet cat behind when they moved, neighbors told her. That cat had multiplied into two, then four, then more. Now, a cat colony rules the neighborhood. Ja…

PlayStation’s 30-anniversary collection presale came and went, selling out within minutes, and this drove demand even higher. With the limited amount being only 12,300 units, some parts of the collection like controllers and PlayStation Portable have made their way to eBay with prices reaching wild amounts of money. There’s even a seller who, for $50,000, will personally drive it to you…once he gets his new car. Japan wants to be different though.

In response to the demand and wanting to strike down the number of scalpers, Sony has decided to restrict preorders to those who can prove they are previous PlayStation owners and played games for a minimum of 30 hours over the last 10 years.

If you’ve signed into a PS4 or PS5 console between February 22, 2014, and September 19, …

Player First Games and Warner Bros. made a risky decision last year by deciding to put its platform fighter MultiVersus on hiatus and pull it from digital stores–especially when some players had spent real-world money on characters and cosmetics. With MultiVersus set to return next week, Player First has revealed what returning players can expect to see when they log in to the game for the first time.

Speaking with GameSpot during a recent preview session, Huynh confirmed that “all characters and cosmetics players purchased before May 28 will still be there when [players] come back to the game.” That’s not all, however, as Huynh also confirmed some new content will be offered free of charge to those who choose to return. Come from Read more

Keanu Reeves: actor, person with excellent taste in motorcycles, video game star, and soon-to-be published novelist. Best known for his work on the big screen in The Matrix and John Wick as well as the rebel rocker Johnny Silverhand in Cyberpunk 2077, Reeves has now co-authored a book with China Miéville, an award-winning writer of speculative fantasy and science fiction. The Book of Elsewhere releases next Tuesday, July 23, and is available to preorder in hardcover at Amazon for $21, which is 30% off its $30 list price.

The Book of Elsewhere is inspired by the Boom Studios comic book series BRZRKR, which Reeves co-created with Matt Kindt and Ron Garney. BRZRKR also happens to be receiving a new limited-edition hardcover edition later this year.

World of Warcraft: The War Within’s next content update has been detailed, and in addition to introducing a whole new zone to explore (something usually reserved for major raid tier patches), it will add a mount first teased over a decade ago.

Update 11.0.7 will bring players to the Siren Isle, where an expedition is underway to investigate a mysterious signal and discover what happened to the Kul Tiran forces that once occupied the island. The update will introduce two new questlines that will continue The War Within’s story, one dealing with the aftermath of the destruction of Dalaran and the mages of the Kirin Tor, and another that will serve as a prologue to the game’s 11.1 update, with Blizzard teasing the return of a “familiar face.”

Most of the early research into video games seemed to be designed to find a link between in-game violence and its effects on players in the real world. More recently, there have been studies about the adverse affects of gaming addiction. However, there’s now research that suggests playing games may actually be beneficial for players, depending upon the type of the game.

According to Reuters, the majority of the research into the benefits of gaming focuses on cozy video games like Animal Crossing: New Horizons. These casual games are designed to be soothing to play and almost impossible to lose. That genre also avoids putting players into overly stressful situations. Come from Sports betting site VPbet Read more
