Debuting March 11, 2014 this robotic wrecking ball has yet to endure its date with Destiny, Bungie’s latest, potentially greatest multi-platform prospect. Set for release in September, the title, like its challenger must first enter a prolonged period of training, a Beta testing phase intended to trim off unnecessary fat. Unfortunately, neither side has been particularly forthcoming where a start date is concerned. That is, until today, when both Bungie and Titanfall’s Respawn Entertainment unveiled new information regarding the massively multiplayer Betas....

English conditions offer a lot of seam and swing, making things difficult for the batters. Tendulkar highlighted that batting outside the crease often forces the bowlers to shorten their length, which ultimately benefits the batters. Speaking to The Indian Express, Sachin Tendulkar said: Sachin Tendulkar was one of the few Indian batsmen, who flourished in English conditions. He amassed 1575 runs from 17 Tests at a healthy average of 54....

[HTML2] One of the most impressive sights at any of this year’s E3 conferences, Tom Clancy’s The Division may have sleuthed its way onto the world stage with characteristic quiet, but now gamers everywhere are on high alert. A third-person shooter strapped to an open-world MMO merged with a skill-building RPG, The Division is equal parts apocalyptic GTA multiplayer, DayZ survivalism and CoD-inspired grinding. Developed by Massive Entertainment, veterans of the similarly anarchic World In Conflict back in 2007, The Division takes place in an American landscape ravaged by disease, conflict and lawlessness....

Can the new horsepower make decade-old gameplay worth another visit, or does Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD ultimately fail to achieve the trip down memory lane it’s attempting? Given the recent decline that the Tony Hawk license has experienced, the decision to remake as opposed to innovate is a tough one to judge. Instead of a new peripheral or contrived gameplay mechanic, Activision has decided to return to the series’ roots....

The 23-year-old has struggled to break into the first team since joining from Inter in 2015, starting just 27 of his 54 appearances in La Liga. Spurs 14/1 to win CL Kovacic is contracted to the Spanish capital club until 2021, but his lack of playing time has seen him linked to several clubs. With just 30 minutes of playing time in the league under his belt this term, further interest is expected in January....

Totti came on early in the second half and helped Roma to a thrilling 3-2 victory over Genoa at Stadio Olimpico, a result which sealed a second-place finish and a place in the Champions League group stage. The captain then said an emotional farewell to the club’s supporters on the pitch after the match, with De Rossi hailing the 40-year-old accomplishments more than 24 years after his debut. “There are people who are not normal,” De Rossi, who scored Roma’s second goal, told Sky Italia of Totti....

Schumer’s TV show and stand-up work are reliably great, funny and important, and her first screenplay/starring role followed suit. There have been a million published thinkpieces on What She Means, and most are written with a level of analysis and/or navel-gazing that I’m incapable of reaching now or ever, so I’ll leave most of that to them. What I will say: It was great seeing a female comedic lead with real depth — the kind of depth that only comes with a character that, at times, dares you to dislike them....

Colorado Representative Lauren Boebert is the latest member of the GOP to respond to an October 24 Rolling Stone story that claims two organizers of the riot participated in dozens of planning meetings with elected officials, including Boebert’s office. “Once again, the media is acting as a messaging tool for the radical left. The left falsely accused me of giving a reconnaissance tour. In reality, I was visiting the Capitol with my family,” the congresswoman said in a statement....

But Nadal’s campaign wasn’t without its struggles. The 36-year-old suffers from Muller-Weiss syndrome, a chronic condition that has caused him a lot of trouble throughout his career. The issue flared up again during the Italian Open this year, in his defeat to Denis Shapovalov. After the Roland Garros final, Nadal said that he took injections everyday to help numb the foot and compete in the Major. Since that revelation, many fans have come up with theories that Nadal was doping....

Self-destruction derby: Why can’t Real Madrid beat Atletico in La Liga? The Spanish champions sit two points behind Real Madrid at the top of La Liga after 11 rounds, though Zinedine Zidane’s side faces a tough assignment upon the league’s resumption this weekend, traveling to the Vicente Calderon to tackle city rival Atletico.

Why Marco Reus would be the perfect signing for Arsenal Rooney thinks any top player who wants to become a manager will be doing so for their love of the game, with vast financial rewards already banked from their playing days. United and England’s record goalscorer is already taking his coaching badges in preparation for his future and hopes for a long career in the dugout.

The Manchester United striker has been in superb form so far in Russia, scoring a brace in each of the wins over Panama and Tunisia.
