Microsoft Exec Comments on Xbox Game Pass Price Increase

by

This week, Microsoft revealed it’s raising the price of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate from $19.99 to $29.99 each month. They’re also replacing the Standard tier with a new Premium tier, which will cost $14.99 a month and offer access to more games and multiplayer features. To soften the blow of these changes, the service added almost 50 new games for subscribers, including 14 Assassin’s Creed games, Hogwarts Legacy, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, and Tom Clancy’s The Division. While some subscribers will appreciate these additions, many are looking for alternatives, upset by the lack of advance notice.

Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era – First Impressions – Will It Revive The Franchise?

by

Just a quick note to start: I’ve only ever played one Heroes of Might and Magic game – the version for Gameboy Color. I have really good memories of it, and I remember spending a lot of time playing. So, while I don’t have a huge amount of experience with the series going into Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era, I’m not completely new to it either. I’ll be making comparisons based on what I do remember from that game.

Is Focused Hearing in Ghost of Yotei?

by

You can unlock Focused Hearing by playing through The Kitsune Main Tale, which you’ll find in the Teshio Ridge. To begin the Kitsune Tale, head north from the Grasslands. As you advance through this quest, you’ll arrive at the Old Graveyard with Oyuki for the “The Tale of the Kitsune” section. During this mission, you’ll unlock Focused Hearing, which is now called Listen. You won’t be able to use the Listen ability before completing this mission, so if you’re deciding between going to the Oni or the Kitsune at the beginning of the game (after the Old Inn), it might be beneficial to start with the Kitsune to get this ability early. Keep in mind, though, that the Kitsune quest can be quite challenging, so we recommend waiting before tackling it.

10 Samurai Anime to Watch if You Like Ghost of Yotei

Similar to how Ghost of Tsushima beautifully referenced the classic samurai films that influenced it-especially those by the famous Japanese director Akira Kurosawa, and even included a dedicated “Kurosawa Mode”-Ghost of Yotei is adding a new “Watanabe Mode” designed to capture the feel of a Shinichiro Watanabe anime. If you’re enjoying Ghost of Yotei, here’s a list of some of the best samurai anime to explore.

BTC Gains $10K, BNB Sets New ATH, ZEC Soars by 170% as Uptober Begins: Your Weekly Crypto Recap

by

Remember last week, when Bitcoin was wading through the murky waters of uncertainty? It had just basked in the glory of a rally to $118,000 after the Fed cut interest rates (we all thought it was time to pop some champagne), but alas! The market rejected it faster than an unsolicited romantic proposal. A mere few days later, BTC dropped almost $10,000, like a knight’s armor after battle, hitting a low of under $109,000.

Best Final Fantasy Games About Warring Kingdoms

by

As the Final Fantasy series continued, the storylines became more intricate, often featuring conflicts between entire countries. If you enjoy political dramas centered around clashing kingdoms, these games offer a deep dive into that experience – similar to watching Game of Thrones.
