Anime Girl Buys Lonely Nerd Body Pillow

Posted on May 1, 2024 by Jack H.

NEW NEO-TOKYO — Hayasato Mara, member of super-powered female anime group Sparkle Squad confirmed she has purchased a lonely nerd body pillow.

Mara confirmed the purchase during an Instagram Live in which she addressed rumors about her relationship status.

“As many of you may have already heard, I have found the love of my life. His name is Josh and we are going to spend the rest of our lives together.” Hayasato then gestured to a body pillow placed on the chair next to her depicting Josh Williamson, an e-commerce analyst living in Kansas City, Missouri.

Hayasato then shocked fans even further when it was revealed that they were engaged to be married.

“Josh proposed at the top of the New Neo-Tokyo Skytree right before it was destroyed by a kaiju summoned by the evil Dr. Izanami. Luckily Josh was unharmed from the attack and we plan on getting married atop the New New Neo-Tokyo Skytree once it is rebuilt.”

The body pillow of Josh is part of a fairly popular line of body pillows in New Neo-Tokyo. The manufacturer’s website states that the pillow is part of a line portraying “Men that have gaming chair-based sciatica and mod for VTubers.”

The relationship between Hayasato and Pillow Josh is not without controversy. Critics of the relationship point to the disturbing difference between Josh’s actual age and the age he is depicted as.

“While Josh appears to be in his early to mid-40s, canonically he is 24 years old,” explained Sparkle Squad fan Marcus Brookes. “The difference between age and appearance is explained by a lack of exercise, near-nightly edible consumption, and the general crushing weight of existence. It’s not as weird as a 14-year-old woman that looks 22, but it is still kind of a bummer to have to look at.”

Creators of Josh Williamson, Lance, and Donna Williamson were asked their thoughts about the unusual relationship and the use of the likeness of their creation.

“What are you talking about? What is the Sparkle Squad? Stop calling us.”

At press time, Mara and Pillow Josh’s wedding is scheduled in a few weeks after the section of the city destroyed by the kaiju attack is rebuilt between episodes.

Crash Bandicoot Once Again Asked to Put on Shirt or Leave 7-Eleven

Posted on May 1, 2024 by Travis Tack

BROOKLYN, N.Y. — Former PlayStation mascot Crash Bandicoot has once again been asked to leave 7-Eleven if he does not put on a shirt sources inside the convenience store have confirmed.

7-Eleven franchise owner Sal Petino is furious after once again having to throw Crash Bandicoot out of his establishment.

“Our policy is very clear,” explained Petino. “It’s written on the door. But Crash comes in with no shirt, pissing all over the place, spinning around like a maniac. It’s not right. And to make matters worse, since he started coming in, other Australians have started showing up acting the exact same way.”

When asked for his side of the story Crash simply replied “Whoa,” followed by unintelligible gibberish. Luckily his sister Coco was able to help defend him.

“It wasn’t pee,” claims Coco. “We bandicoots secrete a special lipid mixture from a gland behind our ears whenever it’s mating season. He can’t help that it’s mating season and he’s been lonely since Tawna left.”

But that makes no difference to Sal. “I don’t care where it’s coming from. It’s getting on the nachos.”

And the store owner isn’t the only person affected. Community members from all over Downtown Brooklyn are speaking out.

“I understand that not all people have the privilege of shirts,” stated Khytari Brunson, a 21-year-old cellist attending the Brooklyn Academy of Music. “But I think it’s unjust for Crash to get special treatment just because he’s a bandicoot. Bandicoots are known to carry the plague – yet he’s in there every day, foraging for grubs, breaking boxes, and stealing all the wumpa fruit. You know how hard it is to get good wumpa fruit in Brooklyn?”

Bandicoot expert and arch nemesis of Crash Dr. Neo Cortex gave his insight into the situation, advising that Crash be put down.

“I’ve known how awful he is for decades but no one took me seriously. It’s all fun and games when the target of his antics is some evil genetic experiments but once he starts messing up your big gulps you start to see what I’ve always known.”

At press time, Crash was seen spinning out of 7-Eleven and into a CVS.

Season 2 of Fallout TV Series Planned for 2034

Posted on May 1, 2024 by Nick Coffman

LOS ANGELES – Following the renewal of Amazon Prime’s Fallout series, co-showrunners Graham Wagner and Geneva Robertson-Dworet cooled fan expectations by announcing that season two would be released in 2034. Wagner and Robertson-Dworet confirmed the gap between seasons in a Zoom call with members of the media earlier today.

“It’s just how television is done now. We outline the thing, then write the thing, then get notes on the thing, then rewrite the thing, then get notes on the rewrite of the thing, then survive the studio being sold to a new company while new executives decide if they still want to do the thing, then agree to a reduced order of episodes of the thing, then get another set of notes on the thing, then do yet another rewrite of the thing,” Robertson-Dworet shared. “We’d love to have it to you sooner, but this is the creative process.”

Wagner gave the press an even deeper perspective of bringing Fallout to television screens.

“After the final rewrites are done, we’ll finally get to shoot the thing, then I’ll get into a heated argument with Walton [Goggins] about which of us is more handsome and he’ll storm off the set forcing us to recast him in the thing, we’ll cast Pedro Pascal at the behest of Amazon, add a meta joke about the recast, and then proceed to reshoot the thing,” Wagner said. “Once filming is done, we have to edit the thing, and that’s where we realize we didn’t shoot enough footage and have to go back and shoot more of the thing.”

Just before the call wrapped, Executive Producer Todd Howard made a surprise announcement.

“I know Graham and Geneva are hard at work on season two of Fallout, but I am here to announce that they will also be working on adaptations of Starfield and The Elder Scrolls. We’ll be using the same exact process to bring both of those game series to the big screen,” said Howard. “Sadly, this will offset season two of Fallout by another ten years or so. I deeply apologize to anyone who was looking forward to more Fallout in 2034. Please be patient with us as we work hard to bring you these excellent shows.”

At press time, Wagner and Robertson-Dworet were presented with notes from Howard that indicated Howard hadn’t even read the thing he was giving notes on.

Sea Of Thieves PS5 Update Patch Notes April 30

Posted on May 1, 2024 by Michelle Pereira

Sea of Thieves has launched on PS5, greatly expanding the playerbase. And with a new platform comes a new season, and a new update as well.

This is a compilation of all patch notes since the Early Access period began on PS5 on April 25, in descending order, from latest to oldest:

UPDATED May 1

Sea of Thieves Release Notes – 3.0.0 April 30

Find out what's new and improved in the release notes for our latest free update!

LAUNCH ON PLAYSTATION®5

A new era begins! Read through this recap from the previous release notes of how to get set up, get into a crew and get the best performance from Sea of Thieves on PlayStation®5, or scroll on to find out what’s new for all players with the arrival of Season 12...

Microsoft Account Linking

All players will need to sign in with a Microsoft account to play Sea of Thieves. When launching the game, players will be guided through the account linking process.

Be warned, account linking is a permanent decision, as players are only able to associate a single Microsoft account with a single account for PlayStation™Network. Only use the Microsoft account on which you intend to carry over your progress to launch!

Experienced players from other platforms who joined during the PlayStation®5 Closed Beta will have their pirate and all associated progress seamlessly transferred and accessible for play. Be sure to use the correct Microsoft account, as the two accounts chosen to be associated cannot be changed later.

Player Names and Online IDs

Once a Microsoft account is linked for Sea of Thieves play, all players will be displayed using their Microsoft account gamertag.

Players on PlayStation®5 can utilise the Recent Players List feature, located within the Game Options menu, to view the Microsoft account and linked online IDs of players on PlayStation™Network they encounter, as well as directly viewing their profile.

Inviting Friends into a Crew

When setting up a crew, players can use the PlayStation®5 Game Base to invite existing PlayStation friends using ‘Invite to Game’.

Players are also able to use the new in-game friends list, which consolidates friends from the linked Microsoft account and the account for PlayStation™Network into a single location for seamless crew management.

Cross-Platform Play

Cross-platform play is enabled by default, ensuring that all new players joining High Seas will find their home on the waves with other players from all walks of life. Players on PlayStation®5, however, can choose to disable crossplay from Matchmaking Settings and only matchmake with others on PlayStation™Network.

Performance on PlayStation®5

Sea of Thieves on PlayStation®5 is optimised to run at 60 FPS in 4K resolution, ensuring complete parity with Xbox Series X players.

Players can access an additional Performance Mode from the game settings for supported TVs, allowing for 120Hz refresh rates at 1080p resolution.

HDR Setup on PlayStation®5

New players on PlayStation®5 using a HDR-supported screen should perform HDR calibration when playing for the first time. Navigate to ‘HDR Calibration’ in Game Settings to configure your experience.

DualSense™ Wireless Controller Support

Hungry for haptic feedback? The DualSense™ wireless controller enhances the experience of movement and interactions with the world.

Adaptive triggers leveraging unique qualities of the controller heighten the gunplay experience, allowing players to feel every bullet they fire.

When a headset isn’t connected, the controller’s built-in microphone will serve as the default device for communication, granting all players access to in-game voice chat.

Voice Chat Notifications

When using in-game voice chat with crewmates or other players you meet in the world, the name of the broadcasting players will be shown within the HUD in a new indicator.

Player Moderation

Players now have access to the Player Blocking tool in the game’s settings. This allows a player to be blocked, resulting in them being restricted from communicating with you using in-game voice chat.

The Player Blocking tool also allows for easy management of your Blocked Players list.

The War Chest

New weapons waiting to be mastered and tools to take your tactics to the next level! Try your luck with fresh loadouts and feel the rush while riding the ziplines. To learn more about this new Season’s headline features, head over to our dedicated Season 12 page.

Throwing Knives

These new weapons in the pirate armoury come as a set of five, which are wielded one at a time when equipped and can be restocked from any Ammo Chest.

Wielding a throwing knife allows players to stab enemies with a quick melee attack or charge for a devastating downward strike.

Throwing a knife allows for a high-damage ranged attack. If a thrown knife misses its target, it becomes lodged in the environment and can be recovered to replenish stock. But be aware that another player can also retrieve your knife and use it against you!

Double Barrel Pistol

This new fast-firing weapon holds six bullets and can be fired twice before needing to be reloaded, or both barrels can be fired together by charging the shot.

Shots fired from the Double Barrel Pistol have reduced range and damage compared to the standard pistol, but compensate with a faster firing speed.

Scattershot

This new type of cannonball can be found in storage barrels across the seas, providing players with an effective short-range option for devastating enemy ships in combat.

Scattershot breaks apart when fired, sending four smaller projectiles in an outward spread. These have a lower trajectory than standard cannonballs, making scattershot a shorter-range option.

Each projectile deals light damage to the impact area, increasing if existing damage areas are hit repeatedly. Ship interaction points such as the wheel, mast and capstan can also be damaged by the blast, and players caught in the spread will receive light damage without knockback.

Bone Caller

This mystical throwable item possesses the power to summon a loyal skeleton crew who will attack nearby enemies. After a time, these skeletons will expire in a cloud of bones.

Bone Callers can also be fired from a cannon, giving players the ability to send a targeted package of disruption to rival ships at sea.

Bone Callers can be recovered from crates left behind by defeated Skeleton Fleets, or found in barrels at Skeleton Forts.

Horn of Fair Winds

This Siren shell is a treasure artefact that harnesses the power of the wind, and is discoverable in shipwrecks and other locations throughout the Sunken Kingdom.

Crews can use it to get ahead by filling their sails to full billow, giving a boost to a Rowboat or propelling themselves through the water.

Players can also harness the Horn’s powerful effects to knock back enemies, cushion a potentially fatal fall or even extinguish a blazing ship.

Harpoon Tightropes

Players firing a harpoon line into a rock, beach, tree or even another ship can now climb onto the line and perform a tightrope walk, maintaining their balance as they go.

Stepping onto a steeply descending harpoon line will allow players to slide effortlessly, even with treasure on their back!

Island Ziplines

Navigation has been further improved with the addition of ziplines to a range of islands across the Sea of Thieves. Seek out these permanent new structures to experiment with speedier traversal!

Updated Weapon Pose Emotes

With the introduction of the Double Barrel Pistol and throwing knives, previously released Weapon Pose Emotes have been updated to support the new weapon types.

Season 12

Another Season means 100 new Renown levels to climb and rewards to snag – and an optional Plunder Pass adding even more! Read on for more on this plus details of other improvements landing with this Season’s launch, on top of those already applied in last week’s update...

Season 12 Rewards and Plunder Pass

Season 12 Emissary Ledger Rewards

This Season, the Guild Emissary Ledgers offer the Ocean of Siren Song Painting, Mysterious Siren Carving Ornament and Guild of Fearsome Depths Title to Guilds who represent them well and perform proudly in the Ledgers.

While Emissary Ledgers will continue to refresh each month and celebrate our most prolific pirates, the delivery of fresh cosmetics into the Ledgers’ topmost tiers is paused from this Season onwards. For the vast majority of players though, the Ledgers still hold a treasure trove of locked rewards ready to earn by competing against other Emissaries. Log in and track your performance on the Emissary Ledgers page!

Players on PlayStation®5, however, can choose to disable crossplay from Matchmaking Settings and only matchmake with others on PlayStation™Network.

Performance on PlayStation®5

Sea of Thieves on PlayStation®5 is optimised to run at 60 FPS in 4K resolution, ensuring complete parity with Xbox Series X players.

Players can access an additional Performance Mode from the game settings for supported TVs, allowing for 120Hz refresh rates at 1080p resolution.

HDR Setup on PlayStation®5

New players on PlayStation®5 using a HDR-supported screen should perform HDR calibration when playing for the first time. Navigate to ‘HDR Calibration’ in Game Settings to configure your experience.

DualSense™ Wireless Controller Support

Hungry for haptic feedback? The DualSense™ wireless controller enhances the experience of movement and interactions with the world.

Adaptive triggers leveraging unique qualities of the controller heighten the gunplay experience, allowing players to feel every bullet they fire.

When a headset isn’t connected, the controller’s built-in microphone will serve as the default device for communication, granting all players access to in-game voice chat.

Voice Chat Notifications

When using in-game voice chat with crewmates or other players you meet in the world, the name of the broadcasting players will be shown within the HUD in a new indicator.

Player Moderation

Players now have access to the Player Blocking tool in the game’s settings. This allows a player to be blocked, resulting in them being restricted from communicating with you using in-game voice chat.

The Player Blocking tool also allows for easy management of your Blocked Players list.

Fates of Fortune

Chest of Fortune

The Chest of Fortune has been returned to the locked Vault of the formidable Fort of Fortune. Keep a keen eye on the horizon for the ominous red skull cloud in the sky when it becomes active.

Crews who retrieve Chests of Fortune can now earn the next Grade of the Fortune’s Favour Commendation, unlocking access to the Fates of Fortune Lantern, Spyglass, Compass and Bucket.

Reaper’s Chests

Crews chasing down the tell-tale beacon of the Reaper’s Chest or Reaper’s Bounty can earn the next Grade of the Reaper’s Riches Commendation, and start unlocking access to the Fates of Fortune Banjo and Drum.

Gameplay Improvements

Hit Registration Improvements

Further improvements have been made to calculate the location of player shots more accurately across the client and server, providing a sizeable improvement to hit registration for ranged weapons across a range of combat scenarios.

Skeleton Ship and Megalodon Encounters

The frequency of emergent Skeleton Ship and Megalodon encounters has been reduced to match the frequency of encounters prior to Season 11.

Animation Quality Settings

Players now have improved control over the character animation quality within the Graphics Settings. This will provide a smoother experience; however, higher settings may impact CPU performance.

Outpost Cosmetics

New Outpost Stock!

The Outpost shops have received a new shipment of items from the Seared Forsaken Ashes set, with the ship set and clothing now available to purchase with gold after unlocking the Warsmith of the Flame Commendation.

The Outpost weapon shops now have the Forsaken Ashes Heavy Sword and Rapier available for Doubloons after unlocking the Devil’s Cartographer Commendation.

Previous rewards from the Wish You Were Here Event have now been added to the Outpost shops. The Cartographer Tattoo and the Refined Gold Cutlass, Spyglass and Speaking Trumpet are now available for Doubloons.

Season Five Legacy Cosmetics

Cosmetics previously available during Season Five have arrived in Outpost shops and can now be yours in exchange for Doubloons!

Players can purchase the Bell Brigade clothing set, along with a range of unique one-off items that were available during this Season. Pirate Legends can also pick up Merrick’s Tankard and Grimm’s Jacket.

The time-limited Ancient Gold items, however, remain exclusive to players who participated in Season Five.

Updates

Report a Player

The in-game Report a Player tool has now been extended, providing the ability to report players for Movement Exploits, Aiming Exploits and Toxic Behaviour.

As with all player reports, these will be referred to the Sea of Thieves Support team for investigation and follow-up action.

Pirate Emporium Quick Menu

The Pirate Emporium can now be accessed via the Quick Menu, allowing players to browse the Emporium at any time!

Pirate Emporium Local Currency Purchasing

With shopping improvements in the works for the Pirate Emporium, this update removes a lesser-used feature that provided players with the ability to make purchases within the Pirate Emporium directly using their local currency.

Sea Of Thieves Is It On Switch

Posted on April 30, 2024 by Michelle Pereira

Sea of Thieves released way back in March 2018 for the PC and Xbox One console, and has recently been announced for release on the PlayStation 5. But what about a Sea of Thieves release date for the aging Nintendo Switch?

UPDATED April 30

Sea Of Thieves: Is It Coming To Nintendo Switch?

The short answer is we don’t know for certain just yet, but all signs indicate that there’s a high probability. Microsoft appears committed to bringing its best games, even flagship titles, to rival consoles.

Sea of Thieves could certainly run locally on the Switch hardware, which was itself only a year old at the time of the game’s release. Graphically the game is cartoonish, and relatively low poly compared to many other more visually resplendent games already available on the Switch.

Cloud rendering on the Switch has also been fairly successful, with some graphical heavy hitters like Control, Dying Light 2: Stay Human, and Hitman 3, all available on the aging console. Sea of Thieves publisher Microsoft already runs a tried and tested cloud service of its own, dubbed Xbox Cloud Gaming, where games are rendered on actual console server blades. It isn’t beyond the realm of possibility for the technology to be used with Sea of Thieves.

Sea Of Thieves PS5 Release Date And Time

Having said that, of the four games announced for ‘other consoles’ by Microsoft—Hi-Fi Rush, Sea of Thieves, Pentiment, and Grounded—only the latter two were actually confirmed for the Switch.

With Sea of Thieves now taking the #1 spot for most pre-ordered game on the PlayStation 5, there is very likely an equally eager audience to be served on the Switch.

Sea Of Thieves: Rare’s Prodigal Return To Nintendo

Sea of Thieves developer was a prolific deve;opment studio for Nintendo games for decades, before slowing down somewhat, post-purchase by now parent Xbox Game Studios in 2002. Some of the Nintendo 64’s most critically and commercially successful games including Goldeneye 007, Perfect Dark, Banjo-Kazooie, and Conker’s Bad Fur Day were developed by Rare through the late 90s.

If Sea of Thieves does come out on the Switch, it will mark the fast time a Rare game has released on a Nintendo home console since Banjo-Tooie, 24 years ago, in 2000.

That’s about all we know for now about Sea of Thieves releasing on the Nintendo Switch.

Sea Of Thieves Is It On PS4

Posted on April 30, 2024 by Michelle Pereira

Sea of Thieves released on both the PC and on the Xbox One, Microsoft’s counterpart to the PS4, back in March 2018. With the game’s impending release on PS5, holdouts on the PS4 are wondering if they too can hop in on all the glorious sailing, plundering fun. So can you play Sea of Thieves on the PS4? Find out below.

UPDATED April 30

Sea Of Thieves: Is It Coming To PS4?

Unfortunately, the answer is no, as there has been no announcement of any plans to put the game on the PlayStation 4. This comes as a surprise to many PS4 players who have been clamoring for a port of the game for years before the PS5 even existed on the market.

Sea Of Thieves PS5 Release Date And Time

The original game did, and still does, run on last generation Xbox hardware, and quite capably, so hardware prowess wouldn’t be the impediment.

Sea Of Thieves: Stream On PS4 With PlayStation Plus

Cloud streaming of PlayStation games has been around for almost a decade now. Formerly known as PlayStation Now, the once standalone service has been folded into PlayStation Plus in the Premium plan package.

While the current policy is for PS5 games to only be streamable to actual PlayStation 5 hardware, thus excluding PS4, that could change with a strong third-party release like Sea of Thieves, which currently holds the #1 spot for pre-orders on PS5.

Whether this could eventually happen is anyone’s guess, but chances are very low, as the PS4 nears the end of its life cycle.

That’s everything we’ve got for you on a speculative release date for Sea of Thieves on PlayStation 4.
