Stardew Valley: All Romance Candidates, Ranked By Their Rewards

One of the most important decisions inStardew Valleyis deciding who to marry of the twelve romance candidates in and around Pelican Town. For most players, this decision typically comes down to personality and which NPC gels best with the player’s tastes, but post-marriage benefits can also factor into it.

Switch 2 Has Already Made Animal Crossing’s Most Frustrating Problem So Much Worse

Animal Crossingis a mostly flawless series, with each new entry building upon the last in creative and engaging ways. While there is certainly an argument to be made that it has lost some of its magic over the decades, in large part thanks to Nintendo chasing gameplay systems rather than honing in on the sense of community that the earlier games fostered, every entry, from the very first toNew Horizons, has provided players with a cozy, safe space to retreat to, with plenty of fun ways to interact with it and its lovable residents....

Pow Shenmue III, the game, the mystery, the project with a release date of July 31, 2025. Will it last? No one knows, but with over seven million Kickstarter dollars on the line it should probably come out at some point. To be frank I’m okay with the mystery as it pertains to plot details, but I wouldn’t mind seeing more actual in-game updates like this glorious Lan Di model. Shared by Cedric Biscay on Twitter (who is working on the game as a producer through the company he co-founded, Shibuya Productions), he notes that there is “so much more to come” at the Magic Monaco event on March 9....

Tracker’s Divisive Cast Exits Could Improve The Show In One Key Way

Fans didn’t respond particularly well to the news thatTrackerwould be losing half its main cast, but the situation could result in arguably positive changes to the series. The show continues to be one of the biggest hits on CBS, but cutting out two names from the already limited roster ofTracker’s main charactersis a naturally risky move. Eric Graise and Abby McEnany leavingTrackercaused a stir in part becauseBobby and Velma alone significantly enhanced the show’s representation of diversity, with each character checking off more than one box....

One of the reasons why MVNOs are so cheap is that, aside from being prepaid, they also tend to cut a lot of non-essential stuff to keep the prices low. However, roaming international access isn’t always available, or has a much higher cost. Now, Visible is changing its premium plan some to make room for travel improvements. Slimmed-down plans are cool, and you end up paying less as a result, but it also usually means that you only get the basics....
