Gamers who love the world of Middle-earth have a lot of great options to choose from, with games based on both J.R.R. Tolkien’s books and Peter Jackson’s popular movies. Some popular titles include LEGO The Hobbit and LEGO The Lord of the Rings, The Lord of the Rings Online, The Battle for Middle-earth, and the open-world action games Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor and Middle-earth: Shadow of War.
There are many fantastic open-world games available, and Steam is a great place to find them. Steam’s store has a huge selection, but these eight titles stand out – they all have “Overwhelmingly Positive” reviews, meaning players consistently love them.
To begin the “Our Presence Up There” quest in ARC Raiders, head to the Pattern House in the far north of the Dam Battlegrounds map. It’s located to the northwest of the Power Generation Complex, and you’ll need to zoom in on the map to see its marker.
To put it in terms even your Aunt Agatha could understand: Brian Armstrong’s brainchild, which relies on crypto prices and trading volumes like a chap relies on his morning tea, is looking decidedly wobbly.
Ripple, that once-buoyant vessel, now lists perilously. XRP, down 5% in a day, languishes 40% below its July zenith of $3.65. A tragedy, or merely a farce? The market, ever indifferent, shrugs. 🤷♂️
The Pokémon Trading Card Game is now a significant market, with many stores, collectors, and resellers dealing with valuable cards. Sadly, Pokémon cards are often stolen because they lack unique markings, are small and easy to hide, and can be worth a lot of money. This recent theft at a card shop is just the latest in a growing number of similar incidents.
This list focuses on games where the player character can actually stop time as a power they have, rather than it being a feature of the game’s rules. We’ve left out turn-based games and role-playing games with pause features because those work differently.
When picking heroes for missions, it’s not always about who’s individually the strongest. The game Dispatch features a Synergy system that lets you combine heroes, boosting their abilities and sometimes even changing them. While all hero pairings in Dispatch offer advantages, some teams work together exceptionally well due to their flexibility, how they cover each other’s weaknesses, and the powerful bonuses their synergy provides.
Openledger, a name that screams “trust us, we’re ethical!”, has partnered with Cambridge’s Blockchain Society-a group that probably still thinks “blockchain” isn’t a solution in search of a problem. This “long-term program” (read: five-year experiment in futility) aims to make AI less of a “closed black box” by… using blockchain? The technology that invented the modern black box? 🤹♂️
Okay, so Ethereum is currently doing that thing where it kinda just… hovers. Like a slightly anxious hummingbird. It’s near some “key support levels,” which, let’s be real, is crypto-speak for “please don\’t fall any further.” We\’ve been seeing a lot of volatility, which, honestly, is just a fancy word for “panic selling.” 📉
