Upcoming Pokemon Go Event Is Already Frustrating Players Thanks to Steep Requirements

As a dedicated Pokemon Go fan, I’m thrilled about the unique opportunity that the Cozy Companions event brings: the introduction of Snom and its evolved form, Frosmoth! However, it seems that Snom won’t be roaming freely during this event. Instead, we’ll find it nestled within 7 km Eggs that are gathered throughout the event. Now, this has been a point of contention among players who view Egg Hatching as a kind of paywall, and the situation is particularly frustrating with Snom. To make matters worse, its evolution requirements appear to be quite demanding.

Game Boy Color Game Getting New Release This Week

Mouthwashing Disappears From Itch.io Amid Marketplace Sweep Linked to Collective Shout Payment Processor Censorship Push

It seems that the sudden removal of certain games from itch.io may be a side effect of a broader policy adjustment they’re making, in response to stricter compliance demands from payment providers like MasterCard and PayPal.

Legendary Martial Arts Manga Baki Is Finally Coming in English (And Scarily Fast)

At this year’s San Diego Comic Con, KodamaTales, the publisher who announced their plans to publish the Baki series in English a few months ago, has unveiled an aggressive publishing strategy. They aim to release two volumes of Baki each month, with each volume containing two Japanese volumes combined. Essentially, this means that Kodama will be putting out the equivalent of four Japanese Baki volumes every month. This rapid publication schedule is rare among English manga publishers, but fans need not worry about quality issues. The first two volumes of Baki Grappler, set to be released by Kodama, boast high-quality content and exclusive bonuses.

State of Decay 3 Reportedly Coming to PS5

Microsoft’s Xbox has had to evolve and shift strategies to maintain its competitiveness and relevance in the gaming industry. This transition began by making numerous games available on PC platforms, yet this move was more about expanding beyond Xbox consoles than signaling a withdrawal. Recently, Xbox has been transferring significant exclusive titles like Forza Horizon 5 to PlayStation 5 (PS5). The process started last year with the release of smaller or older games such as Pentiment and Sea of Thieves. However, it now includes some of Xbox’s most popular games. It seems that Microsoft may be contemplating releasing future games on PS5, possibly even on their launch day.

James Gunn Reveals One Part of Peacemaker Isn’t Confirmed DCU Canon (Yet)

Instead of mentioning the less known characters such as the Doll Man, Matter-Eater Lad from the Legion of Super-Heroes, Kite-Man, and Bat-Mite, it appears that the “two-foot-tall interdimensional fanboy who’s a huge Batman fan” disclosed by John Economos (Steve Agee) in the first season episode “Best Friends For Never,” does not align with the revised DC Universe.
