Still, there are some social media users discussing aspects about the game that fans of the series aren’t too pleased with.

It will be hard for many BioWare fans not to read about Mass Effect 2’s cut characters and wonder what might have been. Many of the character concepts, however, would still be perfect fits for one of BioWare’s major upcoming releases, Dragon Age 4. With a few world-required tweaks, there’s plenty of reasons why some would fit into Dragon Age 4’s world. RELATED: Mass Effect’s Commander Shepard Has a Stunning Kill Count...

The House approved the bill for $1.9 billion, although GOP Rep. Lance Gooden of Texas said Democrats would rather spend the money building a fence “around this building in D.C.” than completing the border wall. Some Republicans proposed amendments to the bill, including Rep. Bob Good, of Virginia, whose amendments included diverting $350 million from the Capitol security upgrade budget and $2.7 million for Capitol police equipment to instead be spent on border security....

A factory for Lindt & Sprüngli in Olten, Switzerland, experienced a ventilation malfunction that caused particles from roasted cocoa nibs to fall in the nearby town. The company confirmed to Newsweek that the malfunction happened on Friday, August 14, but said that it didn’t have any serious impact on production and was quickly repaired. Local outlet Oltner Tagblatt reported that a local man noticed brown cocoa dust on his car after leaving it parked outside....

Over on Reddit, u/imthatguy77 showed off a custom gaming PC that they built inside of an RC semi-truck. The truck itself is big and yellow with a blue cargo crate. That blue cargo crate is covered with graffiti branding, which is a nice added touch to the general aesthetic. While the design is great on its own, it’s what’s under the hood – or in the back – that really counts....

Everyone has a go-to song. Employees at Spotify even have a playlist of songs for this exact purpose. It’s called “Songs to Test Headphones With.” Continuing to dwell on this idea for myself and my own testing eventually piqued my curiosity. What songs do other people use to test speakers? I sought answers from notable industry movers and shakers, and this is what they said. (Some responses have been edited for clarity....

In a 6-3 decision, the court ruled that the case would not be returned to the 5th U.S Circuit Court of Appeals, which would have further delayed the ban. The court had previously allowed the law to stand but paved the way for abortion providers in Texas to sue over the ruling. However, the court’s conservative majority denied this request, allowing the ban to continue without significant barriers. Sotomayor, who was joined in her dissent by the other liberal justices of the court, Stephen Breyer and Elena Kagan, stated that she “will not stand by silently as a State continues to nullify this constitutional guarantee [of abortion]....

While the 2022 release window is fine for now, Sonic Frontiers fans might have just learned much more about the game’s release. A recent PlayStation database update appears to have leaked Sonic Frontiers’ release date; the database suggests that Sega wants to release the game on November 15, 2022, mere days after the fifth anniversary of the previous mainline Sonic the Hedgehog game. The leaked release date could certainly be a placeholder, but if it’s accurate, it sounds perfect....

Paramount revealed the first trailer for the movie at the end of April and immediately the gaming community responded negatively to Sonic’s design. Many fans think the character looks less like the hedgehog from the games and more like a buff ten year old in a very realistic halloween costume. RELATED: Sonic the Hedgehog Trailer Recut With Classic Sonic Shortly after the reveal of the trailer, and as the opinions on the design grew louder, the director took to Twitter to announce a redesign of the character....

This Sonic the Hedgehog movie leak supposedly comes straight from a Paramount employee that shows a Sonic render of him running. Notably, the image and the document itself cannot be verified, nor if it actually came from the hands of a Paramount employee, so take the image with a grain of salt. That said, the image looks rather believable, and falls in line with everything we know about the Sonic the Hedgehog movie thus far, including the contentious appearance of Sonic himself....

The focus of the investigation will be on the use of auto-renewal features for online gaming contracts, the cancellation and refund policies, and each company’s respective terms and conditions. Apart from selling consoles and games, Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft are also offering online services that require a monthly fee from its players....

During the Gamelab conference in Spain, Shawn Layden was questioned by Robert Purchese, a reporter from Eurogamer, if Sony is listening to fan’s feedback and if there were any plans to open up the platform for crossplay. While unable to go into detail, Layden did offer a brief statement: While it’s nice to see Sony acknowledge fan’s feelings, Layden’s comment probably won’t do much for people upset by Sony’s poor response to crossplay, especially after recent comments that the decision is simply about money....

“Today, Sony Interactive Entertainment made the decision to cancel its participation at PAX East in Boston this year due to increasing concerns related to COVID-19 (also known as “novel coronavirus”),” it wrote in an update on the PlayStation Blog post regarding its original plans for PAX East. “We felt this was the safest option as the situation is changing daily.

Thankfully, the wait for an official announcement wasn’t a long one, as Sony took to the PlayStation Blog today to officially announce PS4 Update 2.5, also known as ‘Yukimura,’ and confirmed Suspend/Resume’s inclusion. The Suspend/Resume feature will be supported by “nearly all PS4 titles”; Sony didn’t explain which games wouldn’t utilize the feature, and why not. Suspend/Resume should be easy to use, too. Players only need to hit the PS button on the DualShock 4 once, and they’ll be put right back into the game (or apps like Netflix) without losing any progress....

Sony is also also seeking a junction against the retailer’s company, Zoomba LDC in order to block any more further sales of the device, claiming the product commits Trademark Infringement and violates the Digital Millennium Copyright Act....

While this may seem very drastic, it’s not too bad in comparison to previous consoles like the original Xbox by Microsoft, which tallied up a $4.202 billion loss over it’s first four years as well. That said, it’s not exactly good news either. In regards to the fiscal report, Sony CFO Nobuyuki Oneda said he was not worried because the PS3 units themselves were getting cheaper to produce: Profitability next year does look like an achievable goal considering the large increase of Playstation 3 sales since the launch of the new Slim model (that number is somewhere to the tune of 800,000 if you were wondering)....
