Predators Look For Two-game Sweep Of Sharks In Prague

Each year, we see retailers like eBay, Best Buy and Walmart kick off July sales in order to try and compete with Amazon Prime Day and 2022 was no different. Given the Prime Early Access Sale's proximity to Black Friday sales, it's possible that we'll see several weeks of sales ahead of the traditional Black Friday weekend as was the case back in 2020 when Amazon moved its Prime Day sale to October due to the pandemic.

She was deservedly nominated for an Academy Award and in The Lost King she gives another wonderful performance, again as a woman reduced, in this case by the debilitating condition ME, who again falls for a monster: King Richard III.

Five years ago, in Guillermo Del Toro's Oscar-winning The Shape Of Water, Sally Hawkins played a mute who fell in love with a kind of monster, a humanoid amphibian, more prosaically described as half-man, half-fish.

"We started going out to third-party publishers, developers who also work on PlayStation or plan to make PlayStation games, which is why [we made] some of the choices we made about the tech demos," says Doucet. "We had one where you could bounce a ball and the ball could be a basketball, football, volleyball, ping pong ball. And they were all different expressions by the way they were bouncing back and the way the trigger would behave. And we did that because, we thought, well, we're not making a sports game. But you know, there are people where the ball physics and ball behavior is quintessential to the experience. So let's have this kind of demo and see how far we can push out and that goes up to them. And they can sort of get inspired."

"I was kind of seeing my family there, and it's a special moment to represent my country in the NHL at home in Prague," Hertl said.
"So, a lot of emotion, and it was just a special moment. I'm so proud I can be even here."

Those crazy triggers: Rock climbing, squishy fish I was particularly surprised by how the PS5's triggers can stop midway, vibrating with feedback but also seemingly transforming based on what you're contacting. The closest thing the PS5 does to simulating touch happens when rock climbing in Astro's Playroom, where the triggers give feedback and even lock in to create the feel of a ledge. 

The way the triggers give feedback, tightening up and adjusting, suggests ways games could use the tech for training, or as a guide. Doucet sees possibilities in "precision playing," but for Astro's Playroom the goal was to be simpler, more child-friendly. Deeper use of the triggers only comes in one area, where the crumbling blocks require some finesse to reach an optional goal. It's a start toward exploring other ideas.

Sony has leaned on its own creative team to showcase the possibilities. Japan Studios' Team Asobi has made games showcasing the PlayStation 4's camera and PlayStation VR headset, and Astro's Playroom does the same for the PS5. It's as much a tutorial for new owners as it is an inspirational attempt to spark what other game developers could do next.

But just as in The Shape Of Water, the Hawkins character wants the world to know that the object of her obsession is monstrous only by misperception. Richard III, she thinks, has been dreadfully maligned, above all by William Shakespeare.

But how many games will showcase these new features and will developers take the time? New interfaces are risky. Sometimes, as was the case with the Nintendo Wii, Wii U and even the Joy-Cons on the Switch, it's not easy to get other games to come aboard.

"The truth is that when I saw the result... it was something magical, surprising, a dream I always had as a child that came true," said 23-year-old Parra, who lives in central-Venezuela's Aragua state, and started playing video games at the age of four.

A lab to showcase magical possibilities While Astro's Playroom is clearly made to entertain PS5 owners, Doucet's team has used its experiments to showcase ideas for developers, too, as part of their role exploring how to make the most of Sony's new hardware. 

Burgum in 2017 signed legislation that approved the electronic pull tab machines, despite opposition from tribes that warned the Las Vegas-style pkv games would lure gamblers away from the state´s tribal-owned casinos.

Prime Early Access Sale vs. Black Friday: What about the deals? With the two events happening so close together this year, odds are you'll be a little nervous about buying something in October that usually goes on sale for Black Friday in November. Though it wasn't included in the official announcement, we anticipate that Amazon will likely offer some type of "pricing guarantee" or similar that gives consumers peace of mind that the prices they are buying items for now are the same that they'll find during Black Friday sales.
