First off, the bad news is Forbidden West won’t be out this year, which probably won’t be too surprising given that most of the first-party PS5 titles like Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart and Gran Turismo 7 aren’t rushing to make the PS5’s holiday 2020 launch window. The good news, however, is that it won’t be much farther off, as it was confirmed in a new promotional video that Sony is targeting a 2021 release for Aloy’s next big adventure....
As its release date draws nearer, its marketing has also ramped up with details about the challenges, activities, and settlements that players will experience and explore. Many machines have been teased for Horizon: Forbidden West, and many more have still yet to be revealed. Horizon: Forbidden West’s Tremortusk has appeared repeatedly throughout the game’s marketing so far, and that seems to persist with more footage captured on PS4.

Granted, the sales numbers for Horizon: Zero Dawn are likely exciting for Sony and Guerrilla, but the confirmation of additional content is far more compelling, especially since the game launched without any revealed DLC, expansion, or Season Pass plans. In the statement, Hulst said: Hulst didn’t provide any details about what the expansion will include or when players can expect it to release, but just the confirmation is good news for gamers....
As seen below in the videos courtesy of PlayStation’s YouTube channel, both the Stormbird and Behemoth’s sizes, abilities, and habitats are given brief coverage, as well as the vulnerabilities that will assist Horizon: Zero Dawn players in taking down the robots. As far as the Stormbird is concerned, it is a combat-class machine that can soar through the sky at high altitudes to swoop down and attack its prey, and it is also able to fight on land with a bunch of powerful attacks such as claw slashes, wing blasts, and electrical discharges in the air....
When Gonzalez was asked about what would be important in the sequel for Horizon: Zero Dawn, he explained that one of the major priorities would be to respect the “emotional connection” fans have with Aloy, and attempt to build a game that “resonates just as deeply.” Of course, considering the success of the new IP for Guerrilla Games and Sony, the development team obviously doesn’t want to alienate fans by not doing the initial installment in the franchise justice, as Gonzalez acknowledges the importance of creating the followup correctly, and continuing Aloy’s story would definitely be a step in the right direction....
Aloy and Beta are genetically identical, though their personalities differ vastly. Having gaming segments centered on Beta would further stress the differences between them, illustrating that both nature and nurture are important when forming a complete human being. It would also allow Beta’s character to be further fleshed out, and for gamers to appreciate her talents and abilities. RELATED: Games After Horizon Forbidden West Need a New Approach to Traps...
The Hunter build in Horizon Forbidden West allows players to upgrade many areas of Aloy’s archery skill, giving her abilities such as Concentration, which allows for players to temporarily slow down time while aiming and provides a boost to damage. While the Hunter tree also gives additional benefits to heavy weapons, it provides massive boosts to ranged weapons through Valor Surges and skills that prove to be some of the most effective ways to take down machines....
The phrase “gone gold” is one that should sound like music to every gamer and developer’s ears, it representing an important milestone in the video game development process. Basically, when a video game goes gold, the development team has finalized the build of the game that will be sent out for publishing on disc or become downloadable from internet retailers. In some cases, games like Elden Ring can go gold months in advance of their release date in order to prioritize development of the often dreaded day one patch....
Guerrilla Games, who recently just launched the hit title, Horizon: Forbidden West, was also keenly aware of adding in settings and options to let every player tailor the experience to what suits them. A blog post in early February highlighted the massive number of Accessibility features within Horizon: Forbidden West. While these do include standard options like difficulty and subtitles, the game goes much further by adding in settings for an Easy Loot system, fully mappable controls, reducing sounds that could trigger those with Tinnitus, and so much more....
The massacre is believed to be the largest single hunt of cetaceans—a group comprising whales, dolphins and porpoises—ever recorded worldwide, marine conservation and activist group Sea Shepherd told Newsweek. The hunt, known locally as the “grindadráp,” saw whalers target a massive pod of white-sided dolphins, herding the animals into Danish waters where they were cornered and brutally stabbed to death. Under Faroese law, the hunt—a long-lasting tradition in the region—is deemed legal, although many dispute the practice as unsustainable slaughter and unnecessary suffering....
Still, artificial intelligence is a double-edged sword, as it is far from perfect in video games and can hamper the experience. In fact, many horror games end up with sub-par A.I. characters that feel more comedic than scary. Such is the case for these spooky horror game antagonists with laughable artificial intelligence. 10 Alien - Aliens: Colonial Marines Aliens: Colonial Marines is a sci-fi first-person shooter that came out in 2013....

Health care systems, businesses and schools across the country have implemented COVID-19 vaccine mandates, prompting a spike in people claiming religious exemptions. Few religions outright reject vaccinations, but some religious groups have taken issue with vaccines being developed and tested on fetal cell lines, which are grown in labs based on aborted fetal cells. CEO and President of Conway Regional Matt Troup told Little Rock-based news station KARK that the hospital saw an influx in religious exemptions to the COVID-19 vaccine with a majority of them citing an issue with fetal cells....
“We looked at a tremendous number of patients at a comprehensive cross-section of hospitals around the country and found that survival was substantially lower at night, compared to day and evening, and on weekends regardless of what time of day it was,” says Dr. Mary Ann Peberdy, who directed the study. Peberdy and her colleagues looked at data on 86,748 adult in-hospital cardiac arrests occurring at 507 hospitals between 2000 and 2007, and found that the survival rate during weekdays and weekday evenings was 20....
Yolanda Curtis-Deliz, 46, was taken into custody last Thursday and charged with grand theft, the Haines City Police Department in Florida said in a news release. Police said Curtis-Deliz, a certified nursing assistant at AdventHealth Heart of Florida, was working in the COVID-19 ward of the hospital. She was working in the area of hospital restricted to COVID-19 patients when a man was admitted on February 19. “The patient placed his wallet in a bedside table drawer when Curtis-Deliz insisted that he go to the bathroom to ‘freshen up’ while she ‘refreshed” the room," police said in the release....
Floyd, a Black man, died while in the custody of Minneapolis police officers in May. His death sparked a wave of protests across the U.S. against police brutality and racist behavior. Confederate monuments and symbols have been the target of some demonstrators who view Confederate symbology as representations of hatred against Black people. Primary among proposed legislation concerning slavery reparations is H.R. 40, which would form a committee to further study the issue....
But then things began to change. In the mid-1990s, plagued by natural catastrophes and stripped of support from its erstwhile Soviet sponsor, the North saw its economy plunge into a tailspin. One day Son’s pregnant wife made a carelessly critical remark about the country’s mismanagement. The next thing they knew, she’d been taken in for questioning. One of her interrogators kicked her in the stomach, triggering a miscarriage. Disillusioned, the Sons decided to defect to the South....
This slowdown, which could eventually bring home prices down, could also go into a completely opposite direction, one that economists dread: a market crash. In the first quarter of 2022, home prices have surged by 16 percent on average across the country, according to Moody’s Analytics. But while prices have increased everywhere across the nation, the changes have not been the same in every state. While in many states, home prices have risen by less than 12....
Naby Keita sparked the brawl in the middle of the pitch when the whistle was blown to end the first-half, but unfortunately for the Guinea international, the referee kept his cards in his pocket on this occasion. Instead, he had a word with Keita, who escaped punishment, but failed to complete the game as he injured his hamstring during the second-half. Strangely, the red card could have saved Keita’s season, as he now faces a lengthy spell on the sidelines and will miss some crucial games for Leipzig as they look to climb back into the Bundesliga top four....
