God of War Ragnarok’s incredible story was acknowledged at The Game Awards 2022, where the game was given the award for Best Narrative. Kratos and Atreus’ latest adventure sees them at odds with Norse mythology’s heavy hitters, including the God of Thunder Thor and the Allfather Odin. Odin in particular has been praised as a particularly effective villain, though he may be even more sinister than some fans realized....

Thor’s reveal was indeed a surprise for players to already catch a look at, and precipitated what events may unfold in God of War’s sequel. Thor’s role in God of War Ragnarok has yet to be determined fully, but his unorthodox manner of reveals has continued thereafter. God of War Ragnarok’s Thor is played by Ryan Hurst, who fans may be familiar with from roles such as Gerry Bertier in Remember the Titans, “Opie” Winston in Sons of Anarchy, and Beta in The Walking Dead....
At around 10 p.m. ET on Saturday night, a man wielding a blade stabbed five people at a home in Monsey, New York during a Hanukkah celebration in what New York City’s Governor Andrew Cuomo has labelled an act of “domestic terrorism.” The suspect, Grafton Thomas, 37, was arrested roughly two hours later by the NYPD in Manhattan. The victims were immediately transported to nearby hospitals. In response to the incident, Giuliani blamed de Blasio for allegedly failing to adequately address the rise of anti-Semitism violence in the city....
The former Trump advisor on Wednesday deleted the tweet a day after Hutchinson, a former White House aide, told the congressional investigation panel that Giuliani and others asked for pardons. Hutchinson’s bombshell testimony has renewed scrutiny of the actions of Giuliani and other members of Trump’s inner circle leading up to the January 6 siege on the U.S. Capitol. Political commentator and attorney Ron Filipkowski tweeted a screenshot of Giuliani’s now-deleted tweet:...
The last vestiges of Marion Jones’s anonymity are about to be shredded, as this month NBC presents Marion Jones, Superwoman. Track and field has always been the Olympic centerpiece. But past heroes like Carl Lewis and Jackie Joyner-Kersee have now retired, and more recent stars like Michael Johnson and Gail Devers are pursuing lesser goals than in previous Games. Thus Jones, the world’s fastest woman and one with even more superlative Olympic ambitions, has been cast as America’s singular sensation in Sydney....
First reported by Axios, the 50-page report, titled GLAAD’s Social Media Safety Index (SMSI), alleges that Facebook, Instagram, Twitch, YouTube, and TikTok, in particular, are not doing enough to prevent hate speech on their platforms. The report includes problems on the platforms like “inadequate content moderation, polarizing algorithms, and discriminatory AI which disproportionately impacts LGBTQ users and other marginalized communities who are uniquely vulnerable to hate and harassment and discrimination....

Glympse isn’t quite the same as Find My Friends, though. It’s designed to let others track your whereabouts and while you could use it to help someone find you, it can equally be used to let someone track your progress as you travel to them. The app is available on more devices than you might expect, even Windows Phone 7, and doesn’t even require the viewer to have a smartphone or tablet....
With the news this week that football has finally embraced goal line technology, it has inevitably raised questions about whether this is just the start of the implementation of technology into the game. However, a lot of worries about the invasion of technology are misplaced and other supposed uses for it are completely impractical. Goal line technology works because it can be defined as 100% true or false. The ball is either over the line for a goal, or it isn’t....
However, all three young men are unlikely to crack the Senators’ lineup next season. Thomson is slated to play for the club’s American Hockey League affiliate in Belleville.

Take, for instance, the secret society of Yale undergraduates known as Skull and Bones, which for most of last week teetered on the brink of coeducation, more than 20 years after virtually the entire rest of the Yale campus. For the first time in the organization’s history, the outgoing group of 15 seniors attempted to recruit a number of women to carry its sacred traditions into its 160th year, but were thwarted by the alumni, who sneaked into the sepulchral clubhouse across the street from Yale’s Old Campus and changed the locks....
In a cartoon, or “KurtToon,” the man upstairs answers tough questions from the media about the Patriots-Seahawks matchup. God admits that Russell Wilson has nothing but nice things to say about him, and added that some people think he’s already blessed Tom Brady enough with “the looks, the wife, the money, the tuck rule.” It’ll be tough for him to decide which quarterback to bless more on Super Bowl Sunday....
God of War: Light Elf Outpost Nornir Chest Rune Locations Players should begin by situating themselves directly in front of the Light Elf Outpost Nornir chest. From this position, fans should look out over the gap that is just to the left of the chest, and they should see the R-shaped seal on the side of a cliff that is just in front of them. This seal can be easily destroyed by throwing Kratos’s Leviathan Axe at it, and that is exactly what players should do....
Santa Monica Studio has opted to design its interpretation of Thor based on the Viking myths, as opposed to the extremely popular MCU version that modern audiences are more used to. This take on Thor sports long red hair, a thick beard, a giant belly, and an overall dishevelled appearance as a whole. God of War: Ragnarok’s version of the god of thunder is a far cry from what people have become used to over the past decade, but there are a number of reasons why Santa Monica Studio has opted for such a different physical appearance for its take on the mythical character....
Unfortunately for all the fans hoping that Fenrir will feature in God of War: Ragnarok, there is one major detail from the reveal of Tyr that likely means that the great wolf will not be in the upcoming title. Both Tyr and Fenrir were major figures in the events of Ragnarok and their presence during these events was heavily intertwined. Following this reveal, many fans now wonder how the game will handle the death of Odin, and what Kratos and Atreus will need to do to defeat the King of Gods....
In recognition of the record-setting God of War sales, Sony Santa Monica Studio head Shannon Studstill provided a message thanking fans for their support: The 3.1 million global sales were measured from launch on April 20 through April 22, with no clear distinction made between pre-orders and post-launch sales. If Sony provides further sales information for God of War in the weeks to come, it will help paint a picture regarding the game’s potential for sales post-launch....

God of War is a franchise no stranger to easter eggs, but God of War: Ragnarok combines the best of Kratos’ past and PlayStation’s legacy to create some great God of War easter eggs....
Taking a great deal of inspiration from Norse mythology, it’s only natural that God of War Ragnarok would cross paths with the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which also borrows heavily from a range of different mythologies. Along with characters like Heimdall, Lady Sif, and Loki, God of War Ragnarok also brings the God of Thunder himself to the table. While their powers are fairly similar, there are some key differences between God of War Ragnarok’s portrayal of Thor, and the MCU’s superhero version....
