RELATED: Bleach: The Best Bankai Ranked By Strength With Ichigo appearing in the limelight once again, it’s only a given that many people would be interested in knowing everything about this hero once again. Of course, this knowledge can venture into the realm of spoilers, so anime-only viewers should try and veer away from this list unless they absolutely need to satiate their curiosity. 7 He Gets A New Dual-Wielding Zanpakuto Ichigo’s first confrontation against Yhwach reveals that his Zanpakuto was a false one all along....

The youngest daughter of former President Donald Trump married Michael Boulos, the son of a wealthy Lebanese family, on Saturday at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida. Before the couple stepped out for their first dance, a group of tall women danced at the edges of the dancefloor wearing black blindfolds. They also sported mini versions of Tiffany’s wedding bouquets in their mouths and wore their hair slicked back....

In a stunning (and you have to admit, somewhat amusing) turn of events, the ESRB, who received a number of complaints about the invasion of privacy that the Real ID program would result in, accidentally revealed their email adresses of those who complained. Jokes aside, this has been a major headache for Blizzard in what would otherwise have been a fantastic year. And now, Blizzard has posted on their forums the decision that they’ve made concerning the future of Real ID:...

“A gaming convention is probably the last thing on people’s minds right now,” is how Blizzard starts its message to its community. Recognizing the atmosphere is what the post, written by BlizzCon executive producer Saralyn Smith, is all about. It’s healthy of Blizzard to help create an understanding regarding the impact of COVID-19 and how unpredictable things are right now. RELATED: IGN’s Summer of Gaming Event Is a Digital Mini-E3...

World of Warcraft continues to be synonymous with the term MMO, but rather than simply count their blessings and call it a day, a recent interview has revealed that they still have big plans for the company’s future. Apparently the minds behind WoW have been hard at work on a brand new game for some time, and even this early on, the company’s COO is claiming that the finished product will once again exceed the gaming world’s wildest expectations....

Blood Bowl is a spin-off of the brutal Warhammer universe (not to be confused with the sci-fi version Warhammer 40K,) a fantasy universe based around a variety of tabletop and role-playing games. The universe of Blood Bowl is a good deal more lighthearted than Warhammer usually is, as the people of the Blood Bowl universe take part in a brutal yet highly entertaining combat ritual instead of the usual wars that plague the world of Warhammer....

In general, when physicians refer to something as a blood disorder, they are implying that the condition is not cancerous (i.e., leukemia or lymphoma). Types and Causes Blood disorders can be inherited or acquired. Sometimes you develop a blood disorder due to an infection, toxic exposure, drug side effect, or lack of certain nutrients in your diet (such as iron, vitamin K, or vitamin B12). Blood disorders are defined by changes in any of the parts of your blood:...

The combat is definitely a standout, with players who opt for a Skill build signing themselves up for some truly intense combat with weapons that hit faster and provide the player with more mobility, at the cost of total damage. However, the DPS of most Skill weapons more than makes up for the lower damage per hit, and the following Skill weapons will truly let you defeat any enemy that you might encounter in the world of Bloodborne....

Overall trends show a significant drop in violence over the last several months, according to previously unpublished military statistics obtained by NEWSWEEK. During a single week in mid-September, attacks in Iraq totaled about 900—down from about 1,700 a week in June. The number of attacks increased slightly in late September and early October during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. But according to the statistics, the just-ended Ramadan holiday was significantly less violent this year than in the previous two years....

The original Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon was an 8-bit inspired retro-platformer that served as a stretch goal and prequel for the Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night Kickstarter. That campaign notably holds the distinction of being the most-funded video game Kickstarter to date. Curse of the Moon was developed over a period of only six months, and enjoys excellent reviews on Metacritic and Steam. While Ritual of the Night was intended to pay homage to “Metroidvania” titles molded in the image of Nintendo’s Metroid series, and Igarashi’s Castlevania games, Curse of the Moon hearkened back to older titles in the franchise, such as Simon’s Curse....

Despite the worst carnage since the war of 1971, peace in the disputed territory of Kashmir may be at hand. Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has been desperately seeking a way out of the conflict. Rebuffed by his allies in China, Nawaz cut short a late June visit to Beijing and began looking elsewhere for backers. He begged for a meeting with Bill Clinton on July 4, just before the U....

This omission left the show’s defenders “twisting slowly in the wind,” as Morley Safer angrily put it. (He and Wallace now claim to have patched up their feud.) Hewitt opted for what the Nixon White House called a “modified, limited hangout,” telling his people to shut up and conceding no error beyond inept spin-doctoring. Ironically, the program that has done so much to inspire investigative reporting may have made the work of future would-be Wood-wards and Bernsteins more difficult....

However, in reality, there is no science to substantiate the claim that the third Monday in January (for 2022, that happens to be January 17) is actually any worse than any other. But while Blue Monday is a myth (reportedly invented on behalf of a travel company), everyone has bad days, regardless of the date. Read on for some of the best tips for banishing the blues, whatever day it is....

“I said, ‘Listen, you’ve got a good chance to win this year, so you’re gonna play 100 percent, maybe a little more,’” Fetisov recalled Friday. “‘You get all your talents and your skill and you can win the Cup. And sometimes you think it’s gonna be tomorrow in that opportunity but it’s not.’” Fetisov would know. He didn’t defect from the Soviet Union until midway through his career, and it took until age 39 for him to lift the Stanley Cup with the Detroit Red Wings in 1997....
