No, there’ll be no cheers, no hugs and no champagne corks popping, like that time 10 years ago when the Germans in the east ran away from their government. The arrival of our ladies and gentlemen from the west in their dark business suits will be discreet, staggered and unspectacular, like a traffic jam on a Friday afternoon. As a loyal resident of Charlottenburg in west Berlin, I can’t but be perplexed by these spoiled west Germans inexorably drawn to the prefab housing in that new city center that used to be East Berlin....

America was forged by religious people, many seeking to escape persecution. The New England colonies were founded by Puritan separatists fleeing the Church of England, and Pennsylvania offered a haven for the Amish. Similar examples abounded. All were genuinely grateful for the opportunity to live in freedom in a country where no one mistreated them for their beliefs, and where they governed themselves. It was faith that drove that gratitude....

The trend of bowling first continued as Winnipeg Hawks skipper David Warner won the toss and inserted Edmonton Royals into bat first. The top 3 helped the Royals get off to a rousing start but an excellent comeback and pulled it back nicely in the last 10 overs which helped the Hawks restrict EDR to 183 in their 20 overs.

Despite enduring his lowest goalscoring campaign in the last 10 years, Ronaldo has still managed to win three trophies this season for Juventus and Portugal combined, outnumbering Messi’s two accolades with Barcelona. In case you didn’t know… Ronaldo once again proved why Portugal can rely on him time and time again as he captained his national team to another European glory in the form of the UEFA Nations League.

RELATED: Mythical Weapons Kratos Should Wield in the God of War: Ragnarok Sequel The realm of Niflheim is procedurally generated, with its baseball field-shaped maze taking center stage. The main goal is to survive this maze while collecting as many Mist Echoes as possible, which can later be used to craft and upgrade some of the best armor sets in God of War. As well as Mist Echoes, players can also find Anchors of Fog, which they’ll need to take on some of the realm’s difficult Realm Tear challenges....

It has been a few days since the release of God of War, and by now most PS4 owners are at various points in Kratos’ latest Norse adventure. Some are still trying to find those last collectibles before continuing on, while others are in the endgame, trying to defeat all the Valkyrie or survive the challenges of Muspelheim. However, those that have “completed” God of War may not know that there is actually a secret ending to the game that teases what’s next for the series....

Plenty of other games made an appearance during the show, ranging from blockbuster series to smaller indie projects. While it is unfortunate that God of War: Ragnarok was not present, the upcoming PlayStation exclusive doesn’t exactly need extra promotion. With only two trailers under its belt, God of War: Ragnarok is already among the most anticipated games of 2022, and it would likely stay that way if developer Santa Monica Studio chose not to promote it any further....

No one outside Sony or Santa Monica knows what’ll take place in the game, whether it’s big plot points or small Easter eggs. However, one recurring phrase from God of War creative director Cory Barlog is essentially begging to be added to the game. RELATED: Vin Diesel Family Meme Invades God of War Ragnarok?

Now, a game studio hiring game developers? How is that news? However, this goes a little further than that, based on the requirements SSM is looking for in these positions. For example, the listing for “Senior Combat Designer” asks that applicants are familiar with and “have knowledge of God of War (2018)” and should be able to speak at length about “the combat systems, mechanics, and enemies” of that game....

God of War Ragnarok is filled with many important figures from Norse mythology including Odin and Thor, who have epic battles against Kratos and Atreus. One of these figures, Sif, not only plays a role in God of War as Thrud’s mother and Thor’s wife, but also has a somewhat meaningful role in the ever-popular Marvel Cinematic Universe where she is a trusted ally of Thor. However, these portrayals of Sif are very different, with God of War Ragnarok offering a look at her role as a mother and wife, and the MCU showing her capabilities as a warrior....

Barlog reveals details about Kratos’ mentality in the game, the significance of his son, Atreus, and what type of journey Kratos is embarking on in the latest instalment of God of War. From the start of his explanation of Kratos, Barlog clearly states that the type of Kratos that we are about to encounter in the new God of War is vastly different from the confident and self-assured Kratos that we knew previously, and that he has in fact undergone “a lot of change....

Some could argue that Kratos had a legitimate grievance with Ares and Zeus that got out of hand. However, if that was the case, it would also apply to some of his victims too. Some of them even started off as good guys or were at least neutral. For one reason or another though, circumstances drove these God of War characters to go bad. 7 Helios While the Greek games have had multiple mentions of Apollo, Sony Santa Monica went with Helios as their sun god....

Loved ones of 26-year-old Anthony Huber have set up pages to help support his family with funeral expenses, identifying one of the protesters who was allegedly gunned down by 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse during a third night of anti-racism and anti-police brutality protests in Kenosha. “My nephew Anthony was gunned down in the streets of Kenosha WI while he was defending a cause he firmly believed in,” reads one GoFundMe petition created by Mary Kennedy, who says she is Huber’s aunt....
