‘My Life Is Just Like Skyrim,’ Mutters Man Who Found Boring Book on the Ground

Posted on January 14, 2023 by Kevin Flynn

NEW YORK — A man who just found a dumb book he’ll never read laying on the ground was overheard saying his life is just like the massively popular RPG The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, sources have confirmed.

“Wow, this is just like in Elder Scrolls,” said Mike Graziano, after finding a copy of Bill O’Reilly’s Killing Lincoln on the ground. “I’ll carry this junk around and almost certainly never read it. But I bet there’s a whole boring story there if I feel like getting into it. I would sell the thing if the amount of cash I got was even worth the effort, but instead I’ll probably just lug it around forever. Just like in the video game.”

Developers of Skyrim said they set out to make their massively successful game as true to life as possible.

“Sure there a few cosmetic differences between Skyrim and the modern world,” said Todd Howard, the game’s director. “But beyond that we did our best to make sure this was a game full of relatable experiences, like being able to save your progress and murder a guard and then revert back to the time right before that so you don’t face any repercussions. Or putting armor on your horse. You know, everyday stuff.”

Graziano’s partner confirmed that the book on the ground was merely the latest common occurrence he mistook for a similarity to his favorite video game.

“He’s always saying this is just like Skyrim whenever I tell him we need to go to the store or we see an animal somewhere,” Erin Graziano, Mike’s wife. “I don’t want to be annoying and criticize his hobbies, but I think these games are bad for him. He spent his whole paycheck on cheese wheels last month.“

As of press time, Graziano returned from a mysterious absence with several arrows protruding from his leg.

Epic Games Adds New Part of Fortnite Map Where You Get Your Credit Checked

Posted on January 14, 2023 by Camden Brazile

ANAHEIM, Calif. — The free battle royale sensation Fortnite received a brand new map update from developer Epic Games today, with a new spot to get your real-life credit score checked.

“After collaborating with Marvel, the NFL, and Netflix, we’re stoked to announce our latest collaborator: MasterCard,” said Epic Games spokesman Eric Melfour. “Players can drop into the map and make their way to the credit check station, and after filling out a lengthy form, players can get their real-life credit and FICO score to qualify to buy a house or finance education! We know players will enjoy running around the map shooting, looting, and having frank conversations with their spouse about debt consolidation and forgiveness to prudently plan for their future!”

Players have had mixed reactions to the digital MasterCard installation.

“As an adult playing a free video game for children, I clearly don’t really have my life together,” said Fortnite player Thomas Coleson. “Having this little segment of the map that tells me that I’ll never be able to buy any real estate or escape from the debt I have financially collapsed underneath is a constant reminder of my past mistakes and lackluster future, but the area has some of the loot in the game, so I guess it’s kind of a sweet/sour addition to the game.”

While adults seem to see the collaboration to be grim, children who play the game have enjoyed the update.

“I can usually get a few easy kills on adults who freeze in disbelief after seeing their laughably low credit score,” said ten-year-old Timmy Blevins. “Sure, it’s not as wacky or fun as the Jurassic World or Batman map segments, but it’s by far the most pragmatic. It even reminded me to not let my MasterCard points expire, which can be turned into tax-free cashback on my next statement!”

At press time, Epic Games teased a potential future partnership with the Mayo Clinic to allow players to rank up the battle pass by lowering their cholesterol levels in the next season.

Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Tandemaus Valentine Tera Raid Date

Posted on January 13, 2023 by Alex Branagan

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet and Hallmark holiday romance, together at last for the Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Tandemaus Tera Raid event! Announced in tandem with another currently unrevealed 7-star Poison Tera-Type event, this upcoming Valentine’s themed event sees the Normal-type couple Pokemon, Tandemaus, taking center stage. Tandemaus is one of Paldea’s new additions to the ninth generation of Pokemon, and another iteration of the species of monsters that’s just ‘Multiple Guys/Things But Together’, akin to Magneton or Exeggcute, but in cute familial mouse format.

The Valentine’s Tera Raid event sees Tandemaus given a Fairy Tera typing, likely to help fit the pink love heart theming surrounding Cupid’s very own holiday. This will be the eighth promotional Tera Raid Battle event that Game Freak has included, with not much further info provided regarding Tandemaus’ moveset or its star rating. Our best guess is that it will more than likely be similar to other general holiday-themed Tera events, probably being a three to five-star event, similar to Delibird’s festive one.

Pokemon Scarlet & Violet: When Is the Valentine Tandemaus Tera Raid Event?

The Fairy Tera-type Tandemaus Raid event will start in a few weeks on February 13th, at 4 PM PT, and come to an end on February 15th, at 3:59 PM PT.

The Tandemaus Valentine’s Tera Raid event will be running a little bit longer than just the 14th, giving players more of a chance to take part and catch their loved-up Fairy mouse couple. We’d recommend preparing a Poison or Steel type to go into these raids with in order to take full advantage of Tandemaus’ Tera weakness.

In the meantime, before the season of love even rolls around, the second leg of the 7-star Cinderace Raid event is just around the corner and happening, so be sure to check out our best build for soloing Cinderace with Slowbro before you miss out!

Call of Duty MW2 Longshots Guide: All Weapon Longshot Ranges

Posted on January 13, 2023 by Noah Hunter

When playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 or Warzone 2, you might sometimes see a little “LONGSHOT!” message appear on the right side of your screen after killing an enemy far away. This message will be accompanied by the distance you shot the enemy from, but why is this longshot message displayed in MW2?

Many might be curious about what exactly qualifies for a longshot. Different classes of guns have different longshot distances. For a pistol, the longshot distance is going to be shorter than something like a sniper rifle. Luckily, we’ve got you covered with the exact range you’ll need to shoot from the qualify for a longshot with each weapon.

What Are Longshots in MW2 & Warzone 2?

A longshot occurs when you kill a player from a certain long distance. After the kill is initiated, you’ll see an orange message informing you that it qualified as a longshot. Each weapon has a mastery camo that involves you earning several longshots. If you’re looking to unlock all the camos that Warzone & MW2 offer, you’ll want to make sure you are familiar with how to longshot enemies.

How to Get Longshots in Warzone 2

We’ve found that one of the best places to earn longshots in Warzone is in the pregame lobby, since every player is so spread out. You can quickly earn quite a few kills that will qualify as a longshot in a hurry here, instead of trying to purposely earn them in-game. The main downside to this is you can’t choose the weapons you spawn in with, which means you’ll have to make do with the weapon classes you’re given in the lobby.

Another great method is utilizing the Ground War mode. This mode is set up as 32 v 32 on a much more open map than the regular Warzone map. There are long stretches of open fields, which allow you to easily see players many meters away. You will also be able to see many more players than a normal Warzone match, which means plenty of opportunities to earn longshots.

Additionally, you’ll need to make sure your weapons are fine-tuned for accuracy. Weapons with lower accuracy are going to have a much tougher time nailing a longshot. It’s important to properly add attachments to ensure the weapon you are trying to longshot with has the best accuracy possible.

How to Get Longshots in Call of Duty MW2

In Modern Warfare 2, there are strategic points on each map that can allow you to earn some longshots relatively easily. Generally, any sniping spot on the multiplayer maps should be sufficient for you to earn longshots with weapons. However, depending on what weapon you choose may mean you need to prioritize certain maps.

Some of the smaller maps, like Shipment, are great to help level up your shorter ranged longshots, like the pistol class or shotgun class. With a smaller area, staying around the corners allows you to nail enemies right as they round the corner. If you’re more looking to earn some assault rifle kills, then you’ll be fine to play on any of the standard maps. Each of these has good vantage points that can be used to drill your targets from afar.

As for modes, any multiplayer mode will do. However, we recommend Team Deathmatch or Domination, as those will give you quite a lengthy game to earn some longshots. To make sure you are in proper distance before you shoot, there are a few optical scopes you can equip on your weapons to verify you’ll receive a longshot kill. By getting these things in order, you can quickly rake in plenty of longshots in Modern Warfare 2.

What Qualifies as a Longshot? All Call of Duty Weapon Longshot Ranges

Below, we’ve compiled each weapon class and the distance that is needed in order for a kill to qualify as a longshot. The shorter-ranged weapons have smaller distances to qualify, while the long-ranged weapons have more meters to cover to earn a longshot.

Shotgun – 12.5 Meters
Pistol – 20 Meters
SMG – 30 Meters
Assault/Marksman/LMG/Battle Rifle – 38 Meters
Sniper Rifle – 50 Meters

All rifles have the same range required, which can be difficult for some of the shorter ranged Assault Rifles. To earn longshots, obtaining high ground and shooting below can be extremely beneficial. Each of these can be quite a challenge to earn, but some of these are much easier than others. You shouldn’t have any trouble with some of the weapon classes like Marksman Rifles, Sniper Rifles, or Shotguns.

GTA Online Best Business Guide: The Best Businesses in 2023

Posted on January 13, 2023 by Noah Hunter

Ultimately, all GTA Online players have one goal: get rich quick. One of the best ways to do this is by owning businesses. However, with so many options, it’s tough to know which are the best to own that will lead to success. Here are the best GTA Online businesses to own, as of 2023.

Best GTA Online Businesses: Arcade

Starting off, the Arcade is one of the most profitable businesses in GTA Online. The Arcade will net you some nice pocket money each day, but the real reason to go this route is the opportunity created for Heists. With a purchase of the Arcade, you will grant yourself the ability to take on one of the highest-paying Heists in the entire game, The Diamond Casino Heist.

This Heist by itself at the maximum difficulty will payout at $3,619,000. That’s a lot of money that can’t be obtained without the Arcade. With a setup like this, you can also earn tens of thousands of dollars each day without having to interact with the Arcade at all.

Bunker

The Bunker is another great business option for those looking to earn lots of cash. This business has an interesting way of working. First, you must order supplies off of the laptop inside and direct your staff to either research or build weapons. There are lots of upgrades you can purchase to add more staff and speed up operations, which will turn into a higher payout for you when selling weapons.

When deciding to fully upgrade the Bunker, you can make your earnings from each sale skyrocket. Depending on what you’re manufacturing and how upgraded your Bunker is, earnings from a weapons sale can reach well above 500,000.

Counterfeit Cash – Best GTA Online Business (2023)

The Counterfeit Cash business was first introduced as a part of the Motorcycle Club update back in 2016. To get this business running, you will need to register as an MC President. The initial setup for Counterfeit Cash isn’t too expensive, with the standard $75,000 seen across most businesses still being in play here.

The payout for this business are pretty good too. While it is recommended that you do indeed invest and upgrade your business, you can still earn over $200,000 with the starting equipment. After maxing out everything, that number is almost $300,000. Counterfeit Cash is a great way to earn some quick and quality money, especially if you couple if with one of the other smaller businesses.

Cocaine Lockup

Just like Counterfeit Cash, this business will also require you to be the President of a Motorcycle Club. This will be a hefty investment to start, but you should be earning your money back quickly. The cheapest option for a Cocaine Lockup starts just under $1,000,000, which can take quite a bit of time to earn if you don’t know what you’re doing.

The payouts for the Cocaine Lockup are extremely good. Starting with just a base facility and no upgrades, you’re looking at potentially $300,000 starting. By working your way up to a max facility, you can rake in up to $420,000 just by operating this business. Setup is not expensive, and it runs by itself for the most part. We highly recommend the Cocaine Lockup.

GTA Online’s Best Businesses in 2023: Meth Lab

The final business requiring you to be President of an MC is the Meth Lab. The Meth Lab, like the Cocaine Lockup, is not going to be cheap, but it has quite a nice payout. Supplies will cost you a standard $75,000, while the location itself will run you about $1,000,000.

You’ll be looking at a range of $170,000 to $350,000, depending on how many upgrades your Meth Lab has. We recommend investing in upgrades and maxing each business out, as you will earn the most amount of money this way in GTA Online.

Nightclub

Down to the most expensive business on our list, we have the GTA Online Nightclub. This business has the most opportunity, but that doesn’t come cheap. For starters, you’ll be looking at $1,000,000 for the most basic nightclub, with a cap of around $1,800,000 for nicer buildings. There are a plethora of upgrades to choose, from security to a full fledged parking garage. Each of these has its perks and some will benefit you more than others.

The Nightclub operates as the best source of passive income in GTA Online, as you do not have to do anything to reap its benefits once it is set up. Players will have to have millions on hand to get the best use out of it, however, once investing the money the cash will immediately start to flow in. You can earn well over $10,000 each hour, which makes this one of the fastest earning businesses in the game

‘Sonic the Hedgehog 2’ Director Explains How They Added Knuckles to the Film By Attaching ‘Sonic & Knuckles’ Cartridges to All The Cameras

Posted on January 13, 2023 by Kevin Flynn

LOS ANGELES — The director of Sonic the Hedgehog 2 recently revealed how they added the Knuckles character to the movie’s footage by retrofitting old copies of Sonic & Knuckles to fit in the cameras used to make the movie, sources have confirmed.

“Yeah, just the same exact way as the old Sonic & Knuckles game worked,” confirmed Jeff Fowler, director of the two Sonic films, referencing the cartridge’s unique design. “I mean, it’s not the exact same, because with this we had to adapt it to work on camera lenses and not other SEGA games, you understand. A giant pain in the ass, if we’re being honest. If you have an idea for a better way to insert Knuckles into the scenes, though, I’m all ears.”

Fans were skeptical that such a drastic measure was necessary to incorporate a new CGI character into the film’s proceedings.

“Wait, what?” asked Megan Culver, a local Sonic fan. “Why wouldn’t they just animate Knuckles the same way they animated Sonic or anything else? I swear, Hollywood finds the most expensive and wasteful ways to do anything. Who would even think of sticking a cartridge into a movie camera?”

Developers of Sonic & Knuckles were surprised and elated to hear of their groundbreaking work’s continued influence.

“We knew it was a crazy idea at the time, but we pulled it off,” said Sonic & Knuckles director Hirokazu Yasuhara. “The fact that any [non-Sonic] game you paired it up with gave you a unique bonus level experience just proved all of our naysayers wrong. We swung big, and we did it. How in the hell they’re using this information to make films in the twenty-first century, I’m still not sure, but we saw the pictures of that camera with the game sticking out, and we’re really honored.”

As of press time, Paramount revealed that they’d be using the Sonic & Knuckles technology to also make the Knuckles character appear in the upcoming Scream VI.

League of Legends Steam Deck Guide: How to Play LoL Portably

Posted on January 12, 2023November 19, 2025 by Nick Geracie

League of Legends is one of the most played games in the world because of its technical accessibility – even the most basic PCs and laptops can run League of Legends at a functional level, and because of that, LoL is also playable on Steam Deck. Steam Deck, a handheld gaming device that can also be docked and played like a console (similar to the Nintendo Switch), was released by Valve in February 2022 and is a convenient way for players to access their Steam library from anywhere.

However, YouTuber TheWereCat has shown that with a short script and a meticulous series of steps, League of Legends is playable on Steam Deck. Here’s a guide on how to install League of Legends on Steam Deck.

However, for those who want to play League of Legends on Steam Deck, the process is more than worth the trouble.

Heavily Discounted Game Must Not Be Fun Anymore

Posted on January 12, 2023 by Kevin Flynn

NEW YORK — A critically lauded game that has been significantly marked down from its initial retail price must not be fun anymore, sources have confirmed.

“Oh wow, that Samurai Caper game is down to ten bucks?” asked gamer Aaron Hoover, after seeing the $20 game marked half off. “What’s wrong with it? I’d heard it was pretty good but if they’re willing to sell it for so cheap it must have turned out to be a real lemon. A lot of people might fall for that shit, but I’m too smart for them. Nope, nothing but full price for this guy. Buyer beware, you know?”

Creators of The Samurai Caper insisted they stood by the game and that they were merely trying to move some units.

“The Samurai Caper is the same game as when we released it, if anything it’s actually in better shape now,” said lead designer Tim Hodge about the inexplicable public backlash to the game’s sale. “We have improved bugs, quality of life, added a couple of new songs even. We’re also one of 40 games to go on sale this week, why is this so strange to anyone? We’re just trying to stay competitive out here.”

Despite Quigg’s claims, representatives from Steam confirmed that marking games down is generally a sign that a title is in severe trouble.

“Happens all the time, you do hate to see it,” said Gabe Newell, president and founder of Valve. “Games are just like movies, if no one plays them the first weekend they come out, they’re dead forever. So our store becomes a digital graveyard of shit no one is talking about anymore. When you see these games go on sale, it’s the last breath of a dying game. Tragic, really.”

As of press time, all of those $70 PlayStation games must be really, really good.

Back in My Day, Scooby Doo Shows Had Scooby Doo in Them

Posted on January 12, 2023 by Jeremy Kaplowitz

HBO Max released the first episode of Mindy Kaling’s new animated show for adults, Velma, which reimagines the characters of Scooby Doo as high school students trying to solve the murder of a fellow student. Now that all the characters other than Fred have been rebranded as people of color, the internet is predictably up in arms over the “woke” rebranding of the Mystery Inc. Let me be (not even close to) the first person to say: if you’re mad about this, you’re a fucking idiot. Truly, who gives a shit?

https://twitter.com/extrantavesart/status/1613446464994217985

I don’t care if Shaggy is black or Velma is brown or Daphne is almost nude in one scene or if Fred is played by an antivaxer or whatever else people are upset about. Let’s be real — I’m not going to watch this show and neither are you, unless you’re actually interested in it or a YouTuber making 15 rants about it a day to mine outrage clicks.

Now, despite railing against people whining about a show they won’t watch not perfectly capturing the characters of their youth, let me get to the actual injustice of this show. Because back in my day… Scooby Doo shows had Scooby Doo in them.

Wokeness gone too far???????? Yes, you heard that right, the new Scooby Doo show doesn’t include the titular talking dog who loves scooby snacks and saying words as if they start with the letter R. Why? Why would you do that? Sure, everyone’s favorite Donald Trump impression once said, “they should call that show Velma,” but that doesn’t mean the show shouldn’t even include its most iconic character by far.

So why did they do this? Well, at a panel at New York Comic Con this year, the show’s showrunner Charlie Grandy explained that everyone’s favorite crime solving dog simply didn’t fit into the story they were trying to tell.

The creators of #Velma share why there's no Scooby-Doo in the upcoming adult animated series. https://t.co/kAANN6sdzo pic.twitter.com/5QR2Ajqh2S

— Variety (@Variety) October 6, 2022

“So, when we were thinking about what made it a kid’s show and what makes an adult show,” Grandy said, “the dog —Scooby is what really seemed to — we couldn’t get a take on it that was like, ‘How can we kind of do this in a, you know, fun modern way?’… That coincided with Warner Bros saying, ‘Hey, you can’t use the dog,’ so we were like, ‘Great!’”

Wait. What?

So you couldn’t figure out how to put Scooby into the show and then realized you weren’t allowed to anyway and you said, cool, fuck it then.

So why are you making this show? Like why does this have to be a Scooby Doo show?

Personally, I don’t think it would be that hard to fit Scooby into a show that’s (gasp) not for children. Realism isn’t the most important thing in the world; one of the cool things about animation is that you can do literally anything! Rick and Morty is one of the most popular adult animated shows in the world right now and it has way crazier things than a talking dog. There’s also this show I keep seeing on Tiktok over clips of mobile games called Family Guy, which seems to feature a talking dog named Brian (who commonly takes massive Ls.)

It’s gonna take some figuring out, though.

I understand the answer to this question is because IP is what sells these days and people only wanna watch characters they already know and blah blah blah. But seriously, this couldn’t just be new, original characters? Mindy Kaling, Glenn Howerton, Constance Wu, and Sam Richardson aren’t enough to sell an animated story about a group of teens trying to figure out who murdered their friend?

Like I said, I’m not even gonna watch it. It just feels like everything has to be IP these days. Everything has to be a franchise. Everything has to be a reinvention of characters you’re already familiar with.

And it’s for the worse. It’s limiting for the story. It’s frustrating for the viewer when things don’t line up to expectations (and I don’t mean superficial things like a character’s race — I mean actual character traits or excluding the MAIN CHARACTER), and forces the show to have to somewhat be about how this is similar or different from before.

That doesn’t mean the new show can’t be inspired by the Mystery Inc. characters! I mean think about how many times you’ve rolled your eyes that there’s gonna be yet another take on Superman in the last few years, vs. how fun it was watching Invincible and The Boys. I think, with that story and those voice actors, I’d be pretty intrigued.

There is something interesting about how Jeff Bezos, our real life Lex Luthor, happened to fund two shows about how Superman is lowkey really scary and bad.

Hopefully we’re nearing the end of our obsession with IP. I understand that it’s the way things are right now, and this isn’t directed specifically at anyone — Mindy Kaling or the show’s creators or the executives at Warner Bros — it’s kind of just flailing its arms around in confusion.

I think our media will be so much better off if we can figure out what the next group of iconic characters will be. Or else you end up with a show about Scooby Fucking Doo that doesn’t have a dog in it. And don’t tell me he’s gonna show up in season 2 or that there was once a show that only had Scrappy Doo in it because I don’t care.

GTA Online Gun Van Location: Where to Find The Gun Van

Posted on January 12, 2023 by Tarun Sayal

The Gun Van is one of the most notable additions to the latest GTA Online weekly update. It is basically a portable armory vehicle through which players can purchase a wide variety of weapons, including the highly anticipated Railgun. However, finding the Gun Van in GTA Online isn’t an easy task, which is why many players are having a hard time locating the vehicle in the game. With that said, we’ve got you covered with our comprehensive GTA Online guide to finding the Gun Van location.

Where To Find the Gun Van in GTA Online

As of writing, Gun Van can be found at Palmer-Taylor Power Station, a POI located on the east side of the GTA Online map. Players can also find its exact location by loading into an online session and looking for the Gun Van blip by navigating to the map. However, it’s worth noting that Gun Van’s location changes every day, so you won’t always find the vehicle at a fixed location.

Once you find it, stand close to the vehicle and press the interaction button on your keyboard to access the purchase menu. Here’s the complete list of items that you can purchase from the Gun Van:

Knife
Baseball Bat
Assault Shotgun
SMG
Assault Rifle
Compact EMP launcher
Combat Shotgun
Railgun
RPG
Heavy Sniper
Molotov
Proximity Mine
Grenade
Body Armor

As you may notice in the game, the above-listed weapons have been removed from Ammu-Nation, and you can only purchase them from Gun Van. Meanwhile, it’s being speculated that the Gun Van stock could change after a few days. So, make sure to grab exclusive weapons like Railgun as soon as possible before it drives away.

Another major change you’ll notice in today’s GTA Online update is the removal of snow sheet, meaning you can finally drive your supercars at the fastest possible speeds.
