Update – 09/13/2022, 9am: The Xbox remaster of GoldenEye 007 will not include online multiplayer, which will instead be exclusive to the Nintendo Switch version of the game.

As revealed by 007.com, the two versions of GoldenEye, despite being announced at the same time, will not include the same features. The Nintendo version appears to be staying relatively similar to the original, but with the addition of online multiplayer, and will be added as a standard N64 game to the Switch Online library.

The Xbox version, on the other hand, will be a remastered version of the 1997 original with updated controls (meaning modern, dual analogue stick support) and improved graphics and frame rate.

Update – 09/13/2022, 8am: Rare has confirmed that GoldenEye 007 is also coming to Xbox alongside Nintendo Switch following months of rumors.

Amazon’s Thursday night game kicks off week four of the NFL season, and represents the third game in its 11-year, $1 billion bet on the NFL. The first game brought in more Prime sign-ups in three hours than any other day in its history, including Cyber ​​Monday, Black Friday or Prime Day. And with a second Prime Day looming for 2022, curiosity seekers could continue to flow in.

While Amazon hasn’t reinvented the wheel when it comes to pro football broadcasting, it is putting its own stamp on the game, with alternate audio channels and more data points than the major networks offer.

Here’s a look

One of Week 5’s most interesting matchups is a rematch of last season’s Big Ten Championship Game as No. 4 Michigan travels to face Iowa. And this season this game carries major conference title game implications for the representatives of each division. While the Hawkeyes have come under scrutiny for their lackluster offense, their defense remains elite, and the matchup presents the most significant test yet for new Michigan starting quarterback JJ McCarthy.

The sophomore will be making his fourth career start and first on the road after beating out veteran Cade McNamara for the job earlier this season. Iowa has allowed just two touchdowns to opposing offenses through four games and should be motivated to seek redemption for last season’s 42-3 loss to the Wolverines in the league title game.

Michigan has looked capable of matching the accomplishments of last season’s squad through four games, but the Wolverines did

Entering Week 5 we are down to just five teams in the SEC who are still undefeated, and two of those teams will go head-to-head on Saturday when No. 7 Kentucky travels to face No. 14 Ole Miss. The Rebels are favorites in this game after Lane Kiffin’s squad moved to 4-0 with a 35-27 win over Tulsa last week. Ole Miss has been dominant on the ground, rushing for more than 1,100 yards through three games behind a scary three-headed running back attack of Quinshon Judkins, Zach Evans and Ulysses Bentley IV.

Kentucky is off to a strong start, too. The Wildcats beat Florida 26-16 on the road in Week 2 and has shot up the rankings. Quarterback Will Levis has been highly efficient, completing 67.5% of his passes for 1,185 yards and 10 touchdowns in four games. The defense has not taken any steps back early, either.

Last season, the Rams won it all, beating the Cincinnati Bengals in a narrow 23-20 win. This year, the oddsmakers are putting their money on the Buffalo Bills or the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as the favorites. The Bills have made it to the playoffs three years in a row, and the Tom Brady–led Bucs are hoping to grab their second Lombardi Trophy in three seasons.

Before we get there, however, there are 18 weeks of the regular season and the playoffs to watch first. Here’s a look at who’s playing whom and how best to catch the game.

Which NFL teams are playing this week? And what channels are airing the games?

The regular season kicks off with some big rivalries, including

It’s been two months since the Red Dead Online funeral held by players mourning Rockstar’s decision to halt major updates for the flagging mode, but the latest patch for Red Dead Redemption 2 actually delivered some meaningful changes for the game’s online portion.

The full patch notes (opens in new tab) are a mix of quality of life features, new activities, bug fixes, and performance improvements. Telegrams are the focus of the update, and as an added bonus, they can now be launched via the player menu or the Camp.

Three new Hardcore co-op Telegrams have arrived. Players can hunt down leaders, members, and supplies from the 7th Generation with up to four friends in Sow and Reap, Strong Medicine, and In Bad Faith. A new location has also been added to three existing Telegrams, while Showdown has added four locations to the Hostile Territory and Sport of Kings modes.

Last December, the United Nations warned of an overlooked but critical “emerging terrorist threat”: extremists radicalizing members of online gaming communities.

Despite ample interest in saving gamers from such exploitation, experts say that a lack of research funding on the topic has put the gaming industry behind social networks when it comes to counterterrorism efforts. That’s starting to change, though. Within the past week, researchers told Ars that the US Department of Homeland Security has, for the first time, awarded funding—nearly $700,000—to a research group working directly with major gaming companies to develop effective counterterrorism methods and protect vulnerable gamers.

The new project will span two years. It’s spearheaded by Middlebury College’s Institute of International Studies, which hosts the Center on Terrorism, Extremism, and Counterterrorism (CTEC). Vice reported that other partners include a nonprofit called Take This, which focuses on gaming impacts on mental health, and a tech company

Over 90 videos and screenshots allegedly taken from a test build of GTA 6 have leaked online.

Teapotuberhacker – who spent several pages on the GTAForums (opens in new tab) patiently going back and fore just trying to convince players the leaks were real before talking in any detail about them – eventually convinced the notoriously skeptical posters that what they were posting may be real.

The stunning discovery includes “GTA 5 and 6 source code and assets” and includes both videos and screenshots, albeit from a test build that has missing assets. Right now, they’re pretty easy to find across YouTube (opens in new tab) and all social media (opens in new tab) (although I don’t suppose they’ll be readily available online for long, let’s face it).

It looks as though GTA 6 will be set in Vice City – which backs up a prior rumor about the project

The company says last week’s game brought in more Prime sign-ups in three hours than any other day in its history, including Cyber ​​Monday, Black Friday or Prime Day. Beyond that, the game saw a record primetime audience for the service in the US The question is: Will those viewers be back?

some 13.2 million people watched the streaming service’s premiere broadcast, which was a nail biter between the Los Angeles Chargers and Kansas City Chiefs. This week, the Steelers and Browns will take center stage.

Amazon broadcasts of the games are a bit different than what you might have seen on other networks. Week two of the NFL brought in mixed ratings, though, so this week could be a test of whether Amazon’s formula is working.
