I hated the science fiction genre with a passion. In my mind, every sci-fi story always boiled down to uninteresting aliens, inaccessible concepts, and eye-rolling naming conventions. I didn’t understand science fiction until 2007’s Mass Effect . Suddenly, a world of layered characters, political machinations, and enticing lore lay before me. The Mass Effect trilogy ended up being magical — and since, I haven’t felt that brand of adoration for a sci-fi property again. Then, Archetype Entertainment’s Exodus showed up. When I first heard the rumblings of Exodus , I ignored it entirely. They rolled out all the attention-grabbing morsels they knew would get eyes on them. “Hey, here’s Matthew McConaughey! The game’s developed by former BioWare members!” The whole nine yards. But, over time, as more details were unveiled? I started tuning in. Then, Exodus did it. The team knew exactly what to say to command my full attention. Videos by VICE “The debut game from legendary RPG creator James Ohlen’s new studio is a next-generation, story-driven RPG that marries cinematic storytelling with deep emotional impact featuring broad player agency and modern AAA gameplay. The story is fueled by the consequences of player choices due to the impact of Time Dilation, and how they change the lives of those we love most,” Exodus ‘ official website states . ‘exodus’ finally kicked down the door and made itself known Basically, the Exodus pitch is “ Mass Effect on Cocaine.” If there’s one thing a game needs to say to hook me, it’s “Here? Your choices matter .” Sure, gamers have fallen into that particular marketing trap time and again only to end with disappointment. However, we live in a gaming landscape where a game doesn’t have a choice but to live up to the hype. And it’s not like Exodus makes such a bold statement of player agency in passing. No, that’s a large chunk of the game’s pitch . “There are going to be some cool choices that have cascading effects in the game, and the ones where time dilation is in play, those are the most significant in the game, and likely to have the largest ramifications in your story. All the choices you make are gonna affect your progression as a character, and as a Traveler,” Archetype co-founder, Chad Robertson, said during a Q&A session for the game. “Your choices are also going to have an impact on your homeworld and the people you care about, but the wrong choice can change your relationship in ways you can’t anticipate – but maybe that was the right choice for you. Ultimately, it’s your game, and we want to give you the choice to do those things.” Bring it, Exodus . I’m ready to painfully exist in a land of devastating cause and effect!

The sequel takes place three years later as Moana is 'on an expansive journey in search of people beyond the shores of Motunui,' according to a synopsis. 'Joined by Maui and a brand-new crew of unlikely seafarers, Moana must journey to the far seas of Oceania and into dangerous, long-lost waters for an adventure unlike anything she's ever faced,' it was shared. The cast also features Rachel House (Moana's Grandma Tala), Temuera Morrison (Moana's father Chief Tui) and Nicole Scherzinger (Moana's mother Sina), plus Hualālai Chung, David Fane and Rose Matafeo, Awhimai Fraser, Gerald Ramsey and Khaleesi Lambert-Tsuda as Moana's little sister Simea.

But they split in 2005, and she went on to have Jett, 11, and Bunny, 10 with Kieran Hayler. Katie is also mother to Harvey, 22, from a relationship with Dwight Yorke, but she is currently in a relationship with MAFS star JJ Slater.

You can't make someone be a singer or dancer. You are either naturally or not. So we always knew he would do something like that.' Katie said Junior 'doesn't want to be associated' with her on his social platforms. She said: 'I don't even think there's a picture of me and him on it, because he doesn't want to be associated. He wants to do it himself, wants to credit himself, so he does that. 'And then with Princess, you can't deny she's a pretty girl. So she gets offered all these stuff, no different to anyone else. 'And again, she doesn't use us on her page or anything. I don't go to events with her to be pictured to help her. Same with Junior. Like, they do it all themselves. Yeah, people might say in a headline, it's their daughter or their son, but you've got to give them credit. 'They're doing it themselves. Don't interfere. And I certainly don't make phone calls to get them jobs, they do it purely on their own, and that's what they want to do. They're like, "no, we want to do it ourselves, not have any of your input".'

NoneNoodles and wine are the secret ingredients for a strange new twist in China's doping sagaAll of Inter Milan’s goals against Hellas Verona in their 5-0 Serie A win were onside, while Pawel Dawidowicz could have seen red. This is the view in today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews , who assess referee Andrea Colombo’s performance. When Inter and Verona faced off in January of this year, there was some refereeing controversy. This concerned the decision not to disallow a late Inter goal despite an apparent foul by defender Alessandro Bastoni in the buildup. Therefore, there was perhaps going to be some attention on the officiating in yesterday’s match at the Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi. But in the end, the refereeing was hardly the story. Inter scored five goals without reply inside the first half of the match to hit the ground running on their return to Serie A action from the international break. All Inter Goals Vs Verona Onside – Dawidowicz Lucky Not To See Red Naturally, Inter had to wait for confirmation of their goals from VAR. This has become a familiar wait with the introduction of the technology. And on a couple of Inter’s goals, there was some doubt about whether they would stand. Nerazzurri striker Marcus Thuram bagged a brace for his team’s second and third goals. Both of these came after the Frenchman had been released into an acre of space behind Verona’s high defensive line. He got one-on-one with Gialloblu keeper Lorenzo Montipo and held his nerve to score. Considering the space Thuram had to run into there was a hint of offside on his two goals. But on both occasions, Verona wingback Domagoj Bradaric was in fact playing the Frenchman on. Therefore, there was no refereeing controversy with either goal. On the other hand, the Gazzetta note, Verona defender Pawel Dawidowicz was fortunate not to receive a red card. Referee Colombo had booked Dawidowicz for an elbow on Inter forward Joaquin Correa. Later, the 29-year-old committed a blatant foul to stop an Inter counterattack. But, perhaps mindful of the scoreline, Colombo showed leniency and did not book Dawidowicz a second time to send the Pole off.

Outlander ‘s upcoming prequel spinoff Outlander: Blood of My Blood has yet to premiere on Starz , and already we’re wondering about if and when the show might return for a second season. But before fans think we’re getting too far ahead of ourselves, there’s a good reason to believe that there is more on the horizon for the love stories of Jamie ( Sam Heughan ) and Claire’s ( Caitriona Balfe ) parents, who take center stage in the new show. Below, we’re breaking down everything we know about the possibility so far. Starz When TV Insider caught up with Outlander author Diana Gabaldon, she couldn’t speak to the future of the show necessarily, but the literary inspiration is certainly there for more than one season. As Gabaldon puts it, “For what it’s worth, I have material for three — relatively short, as compared to the main Outlander novels — prequel books concerning Jamie’s parents. Blood of My Blood is based on the synopsis of the first of those books.” In other words, since Claire’s parents were added to the mix, it could mean there’s even more material to cover in the prequel’s future with more seasons. At this time, Gabaldon’s words are merely that, as no official confirmations or announcements from Starz have been made. As we have yet to see the first season of Outlander: Blood of My Blood , there is only so much we can guess about the storylines for potential future seasons. While Outlander has had some references to Jamie’s parents, Ellen ( Harriet Slater ) and Brian ( Jamie Roy ), there are no major mentions of Claire’s family as her parents, Henry ( Jeremy Irvine ) and Julia ( Hermione Corfield ), died when she was quite young. For now, we’ll have to wait and see where Season 1 takes us. 'Outlander' Author Diana Gabaldon Talks Series Ending, 'Blood of My Blood' & Plans for More Books In the meantime, we can safely assume that should the series return for Season 2, it will further the love stories of both Ellen and Brian and Henry and Julia in their respective times of 18th-century Scotland and World War I England. The aforementioned Slater, Roy, Irvine, and Corfield would all likely return if Blood of My Blood is ordered for a second season with additional casting to be determined. For now, Season 1’s ensemble includes Rory Alexander as young Murtagh, Sam Retford as young Dougal, Séamus McLean Ross as young Colum, and Conor MacNeill as young Ned Gowan, Tony Curran as Lord Lovat, Peter Mullan as Red Jacob MacKenzie, Sadhbh Malin as Jocasta Cameron, Terence Rae as Arch Bug, Sara Vickers as Davina Porter, Brian McCardie as Isaac Grant, Jhon Lumsden as Malcolm Grant, Sally Messham as Mrs. Fitz, Alisa Davidson as Janet MacKenzie, Annabelle Dowler as Lizbeth, Harry Eaton as Private Charlton, Marlow Walters as Angus Mhor, and Louis O’Rourke as Rupert MacKenzie.

As Sanders was brought down near the sideline after a 10-yard reception, he was flipped upside down and landed directly on the top of his helmet as he went out of bounds on the tackle by cornerback Trent McDuffie. After receiving attention from the team's medical staff, Sanders was strapped to a backboard and taken off the field on a cart with 40 seconds remaining in the half. He was taken to Atrium Health Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte for observation and later released Sunday afternoon, according to the team. On the CBS broadcast following halftime, Panthers head coach Dave Canales said Sanders had movement in all his extremities, while extreme precaution was taken because of back tightness. CBS reported he was being examined for a concussion before later amending that to a neck injury. The 21-year-old rookie out of Texas had a team-leading three receptions for the Panthers at the half for 49 yards. In 11 games this season, Sanders has 29 receptions for 302 yards and a touchdown. Sanders was a fourth-round selection in the NFL draft in April. --Field Level MediaBOISE, Idaho — Freshman wide receiver George Dimopoulos threw a 25-yard touchdown pass to Dane Pardridge on the first play of double overtime and Jordan Hansen ended the game on a fourth-down sack to give Northern Illinois a 28-20 victory over Fresno State on Monday in the Idaho Potato Bowl. Dimopoulos, who played quarterback in high school, also converted the two-point conversion when he passed it to quarterback Josh Holst for his second completion of the season. Holst, a freshman walk-on, was making just his third start at quarterback as NIU was without starter Ethan Hampton, who entered with 1,600 yards and 12 touchdowns to go with six interceptions. Holst completed 18 of 30 passes for 182 and two touchdowns for Northern Illinois (8-5). He was also intercepted on the first play of the game. Both teams missed a 35-yard field goal in the final three minutes of regulation, including Dylan Lynch's third miss of the game on the final play to send it to overtime. Fresno State started overtime with a touchdown when Bryson Donelson was left wide open out of the backfield to haul in a 9-yard touchdown pass. NIU needed five plays, and a defensive holding penalty, to score as Holst found Grayson Barnes for a 3-yard touchdown. Donelson finished with 15 carries for 82 yards and a touchdown for Fresno State (6-7). He added three catches for 28 yards and another score. Dual-threat quarterback Joshua Wood was 16 of 23 for 180 yards and a touchdown. Mac Dalena made six catches for 118 yards to help go over 1,000 yards for the season. Fresno State was without 14 players, including starting quarterback Mikey Keene after he transferred to Michigan. Two top-three receivers, Jalen Moss and Raylen Sharpe, also did not play as the Bulldogs were forced to use five new starters. UTSA 44, COASTAL CAROLINA 15: Owen McCown threw for 254 yards and a touchdown and UTSA scored the opening 27 points of the Myrtle Beach Bowl to cruise past short-handed Coastal Carolina in Conway, S.C. UTSA (7-6) broke away in the second quarter by scoring a touchdown on three straight drives for a 21-0 lead. McCown was 14 of 17 in the first half, including a 6-yard touchdown pass to Patrick Overmyer. McCown also scored on a 35-yard run after breaking two tackles near the end zone. The other score was a 9-yard touchdown run by Brandon High. Coastal Carolina (6-7) finished the first half with just 140 total yards — 60 coming on the final drive. The Chanticleers punted on five straight drives to begin the game — with the longest possession lasting seven plays for 25 yards. UTSA added short field goals on its opening two drives of the second half, while Coastal Carolina started with two straight three-and-out drives. UTSA ended CCU’s third drive on Jakevian Rodgers’ first career interception to extend the program's single-game streak with an interception and a sack to 23 games. CCU’s first touchdown came on the first play of the fourth quarter when Bryson Graves caught a 50-yard touchdown pass from Tad Hudson. But UTSA’s Chris Carpenter returned the ensuing kickoff for a 93-yard touchdown to make it 34-7. It was the largest margin of victory in the five-year history of the Myrtle Beach Bowl.

The sleeper Vande Bharat Express completed a spectacular trial run between Khajuraho and Mahoba on Monday at a speed of 130 km per hour, marking a significant milestone in India's push for modern and faster train services. The trial of this 16-coach train will go on for another 15 days because the Khajuraho-Jhansi line does not have a heavy train load. Vande Bharat Express's bogies are incredibly cozy and appealing. Meanwhile, the sleeper Vande Bharat Express's route is yet to be decided. Since fewer trains are operating on the 63-kilometre line between Khajuraho and Mahoba, it is thought to be the safest for trials. The train was tested on the route for seven days at a moderate speed to check for technical issues. The speed limit has been raised now. On Sunday, the train traveled 115 km/h from Khajuraho to Mahoba railway station. The speed was raised to 130 kilometres per hour on Monday. ALSO READ: Maha Kumbh Mela 2025: Railways To Run 32 More Special Trains From Kanpur For Devotees | Check List On Sunday at 3:25 PM, the train arrived in Mahoba from Khajuraho in 35 minutes, whereas other trains take an hour and 20-25 minutes. According to Manoj Kumar, Public Relations Officer of Vande Bharat Express Railway, each wheel of the Vande Bharat sleeper carriage has its pneumatic airbrake system, which is the most advanced technology in Indian railways. With the installation of a pneumatic airbrake system, the possibilities of the train derailing are minimal. Currently, most trains use vacuum brakes. If emergency braking is required, the train will stop at a distance of 350 metres.Author of the touching “The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry,” Zevin pivots from a love story about reading to one about gaming. Not a gamer? Don’t worry! This novel is so inclusive that it will not hinder your appreciation. Collaboration and synergy propel creators Sam and Sadie through years of discovery, growth, success and heartbreak. They are supported by their best friend, Marx, who quietly wrangles myriad business details and coaxes them back to reality when needed. I liked all the characters, but I loved Marx. Cultural references and gaming jargon anchor this book, but Zevin’s clear writing doesn’t allow us non-gamers to get lost. There are a few loose ends, but not so many that I would hesitate to recommend this book. — Written by Colorado native Helen Phillips, this novel depicts a world where robots and artificial intelligence have become normalized and permeate society in countless ways. Like Margaret Atwood, Phillips draws on science and facts, and she uses that information as her baseline to pull the reader speculatively into, in her own words, “a dark, near future.” The eponymous “hum” refers to the robots and could be derived from the shortened form of “human,” or perhaps from the ubiquitous sound of all electronic devices. But the hum is insidious, manipulative and glibly persuasive. In this novel, Phillips gently asks, “What would do in the face of such tyrannical technology to support and protect your children and their future?” — Some children are able to overcome an abusive, violent childhood, while others are doomed to create chaos as they desperately seek a way out of their difficult circumstances. The young daughter of a mentally ill, drug-addled mother and a charismatic but sadistic drug-dealer father, Wavy struggles with an apparent eating disorder as well as a number of other mental health issues. On top of that, she is the only one around to care for and protect her baby brother. At 8 years old, she helps a young man who works as a strong-arm for her father survive a motorcycle accident, and in turn he is grateful and kind to her, becoming perhaps the only male adult in her life who shows any interest or affection toward her. Wavy becomes quite attached to Kellen, and an obsessive love affair grows between the two as the years go by, becoming sexual at an inappropriate age. Many readers will find this story compelling and thought-provoking; others will be offended by the idea that a child can “groom” a normal person to become a pedophile. Has a crime been committed upon this “innocent” child? Or can a pure, lifelong romantic love happen between a child and a grown man? You decide. — Gamache is back! And he is back in Three Pines, so fans can breathe a sigh of relief. Gamache is back on his game, battling evil forces that would destroy not only Montreal but also much of Quebec and beyond. Will he decipher the breadcrumb trail of clues? Can he shut down the terrorists in time? When should he warn the public, and will that warning scare the terrorists into hiding, biding their time for another crack at destruction? A nail-biter and page-turner, for sure. —
