The game puts the player in the role of FBI agent, Nicole Bonnet, who is on the hunt for a serial killer. However, that’s not the story from the outset, it is something the game builds up to - albeit in a very poor way. Crime Lab, in a nutshell is a mix of ‘I Spy’ set against a story, combined with puzzles with a dash of mini-games. The player has the choice of starting out by playing the lackluster story or by jumping into one of the mini-games that involve picking locks, bypassing circuits, or cracking codes (all of these are also present in the story)....

Game Rant’s Jeff Schille reviews Crimson Alliance. Poised as a follow up to Microsoft’s fantastic Summer of Arcade games (and free to gamers who bought all of them), Crimson Alliance arrives as an approachable take on the dungeon-crawling, loot-driven, action-RPG. But does the game, developed by Certain Affinity (Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, Halo: Reach Defiant Map Pack), deserve to keep company with such well-received titles as Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet and Bastion?...

Madrid appeared to be in a tricky situation in Naples on Tuesday when 1-0 down on the night at half-time, with Napoli needing just one more goal without reply to secure passage to the last eight. Is Ramos the world’s best big-game player? But Madrid rallied well after the interval and two Ramos headers in quick succession were added to late on by Alvaro Morata’s close-range effort, securing a 6-2 aggregate triumph....

It’s Disney Night on Dancing With The Stars and we’re about to see just how far each celebrity will go. From Moana to The Lion King, the night’s theme could showcase some wild skills, or contestants falling flat. Stepping back into the spotlight as the leading scorer from last week is former Bachelorette Kaitlyn Bristowe. Her story is even more intense—Bristowe injured her ankle over a week ago, and it’s very possible she won’t take the stage....

[HTML1] Welcome to our regular gameplay impressions and video post where we record our first 10-30 minutes with a new game, and provide some general impressions on that early playthrough. Today’s game is: Darkout from developer Allgraf. For starters, it’s best to explain that Darkout is not a game that is best served by a quick 20-minute intro video, as it requires several hours just to scratch the surface. But the basic premise of the game is that the player character has crash-landed on a randomly generated world and they are asked merely to survive....

New Delhi, April 5 (IANS) Over the years, the Indian Premier League (IPL) has seen home teams preparing wickets to suit their strength. But Delhi Capitals’ request for wickets with grass has not been met by the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA). In fact, even as head coach Ricky Ponting made his displeasure known after DC lost to Sunrisers Hyderabad on Thursday, the DDCA has made it clear that it is impossible to provide pitches that will have grass at this stage of the season....

Now that the hype and subsequent backlash from the fantastic trailer have died down, Deep Silver has taken this time to remind everyone that Dead Island is in fact a video game, and one that we should probably be excited about. For those early adopters (pre-orderers) of this alternative lifestyle (zombie killing RPG slasher), there will be a special pre-order edition. Its primary draw is the included Bloodbath Arena DLC....

It is an open secret that Paul Pogba is closer than ever to leaving Manchester United in the summer. However, Kevin Phillips believes it is almost impossible for the midfielder to join Manchester City or Chelsea. Phillips told Football Insider while discussing Pogba’s future: The Englishman believes Tottenham Hotspur have a good chance of signing Pogba due to Antonio Conte’s presence. The duo worked together for two years at Juventus between 2012 and 2014, and Phillips believes their past relationship could work in Spurs’ favor....

Pogba, 28, is coming to the end of his current deal with Manchester United. He has shown no sign of wanting to continue with the Red Devils in the Premier League. There has been reported interest in the France international from a number of top European clubs, including Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid and Juventus. But The Telegraph reported that Pogba was open to moving to a Premier League rival should he depart Old Trafford....

One of the patch’s main goals is to help improve visibility in a match, adding the “boost player contrast” option to give enemies in view more definition. To turn this new visibility option on, you’ll need to go to the “video” menu and click “advanced” where you will see a toggle with the option on. When it has been toggled, you can clearly see a small ring or light around the enemy, making them easier to spot on the blank mesh that some of the maps can look like....

The eagerly anticipated downloadable competitive shooter Counter-Strike: Global Offensive released this week after rigorous testing and while Game Rant’s review isn’t live just yet, we can safely say that CS:GO has proven to be a little bit buggy. Thankfully, Valve’s been quickly working to fix some of the obvious bugs and has already released the first update for the PC version of the game via Steam. The update addresses several matchmaking issues, along with a few damage/shooting mechanics-related bugs....

TV director Cameron Thayer (Terrence Howard) and his wife Christine (Thandie Newton) are humiliated at a traffic stop by the racist cop, John Ryan (Matt Dillon). Farhad (Shaun Toub), a Persian shop owner, has reached his boiling point after being referred to as Osama, due to the 9/11 terrorist attacks. So much hatred and anger is brewing between these characters and the rest, they all eventually end up crashing into each other....

The two unnamed women were thrown off the Thomas Cook flight from Dalman, Turkey to London in the early hours of Friday morning after asking flight crew to remove three Muslim men from the plane, The Independent reported. Several videos of the incident, filmed by fellow passengers, showed one of the women removing her luggage from the overhead compartments before being walked off the aircraft by police. Both the unruly travelers are believed to be British and one is believed to be in her 30s, The Mirror noted....

These first two episodes will air at 9 p.m. ET and 10 p.m. ET.

Aldama was actually saved by the judges, meaning she will get to compete another week. (Actor Anne Heche was sent home instead.) But even with Aldama staying, the mistake—which, from this writer’s perspective, rests on the shoulders of the already-controversial Banks—echoed across the Internet all night long. Banks apologized on live TV when it happened, and she was quick to apologize again on Twitter after the show. “Wowzers. Live TV,” she wrote....

Ever since the debut trailer, fans of Darksiders have been patiently waiting more information regarding the sequel. Vigil Games’ Art Director explained the art design behind the new title, but other than the trailer, gamers haven’t had much of a glimpse of Darksiders 2’s graphics. Now, there are some quality Darksiders 2 screenshots for fans to sink their teeth into. The game once again features more of Joe Madureira’s stylish artwork....

In March, Bethesda was spotted trademarking the name “Dawnguard,” sparking DLC rumors and speculation. Today, that speculation is justified as Skyrim’s first batch of added content is in fact, Dawnguard. In a somewhat underwhelming unveiling, Bethesda added an image to their official blog today with little context or additional information. It’s a beautiful piece of artwork featuring Skyrim’s Nord protagonist sporting the game’s iconic horned helm, staring with glowing eyes and sporting a quiver of arrows on his back....

In a recent interview with VG 24/7, DayZ Designer Dean Hall — basically the face of the DayZ property and developer Bohemia Interactive — revealed what changes players can expect in this new engine, which the team is calling Infusion. One of the key areas that Hall says is getting some much-needed attention is lighting. In the past, the game struggled to deliver real-time lighting effects, which made going out at night an even bigger risk than it already was....
