You can now run Doom in Minecraft thanks to a new mod that lets you run a virtual machine in-game. This “play Doom in X” meme is getting out of hand. First it was playing Doom in your browser, which, ok, seems fine on its face. Maybe you just really want that original Doom experience but don’t want to go to the hassle of actually buying it on Steam. Fine. But then somebody figured out how to play Doom in Excel, and after that someone made Doom work in the Windows 10 Task Manager....

This Young Justice: Outsiders review contains spoilers. Young Justice Season 3 Episode 22 Grading on a relative scale, last week’s episode of Young Justice was a debacle. It was too busy and too rushed. This week’s episode, “Antisocial,” fixes almost every problem with “Unknown Factors” by dramatically narrowing its scale. It sacrifices some action in doing so, but this episode really starts thundering towards the finale and pushing plot lines to their inevitable conclusions....

Nintendo’s The Legend of Zelda series has been an immensely popular franchise on its own, but has also been a big inspiration for different games throughout the years. Even AAA games like Immortals Fenyx Rising get some inspiration from games like Breath of the Wild. The Zelda-inspired game Rogue Heroes: Ruins of Tasos gets an official release date, along with a new trailer. Rogue Heroes: Ruins of Tasos is developed by Heliocentric Studios, a two-man indie studio run by Joshua Gump and Brandon Weatherbee....

What Does I Am Not A Qualified Practitioner (IANAQP) Mean? The acronym IANAQP can be used to mean either “I am not a qualified practitioner” or “I am not a quantum physicist.” Both of these have been entered into the lexicon of digital chat slang. Techopedia Explains I Am Not A Qualified Practitioner (IANAQP) In either of the above cases, the acronym IANAQP tends to be followed by the word “but” and part of someone’s opinion on some issue or topic....

What Does DRY Principle Mean? The DRY principle is one of those long-standing ideas in computer science that is talked about with a bit of humor. DRY stands for “don’t repeat yourself,” and a corresponding WET principle stands for “write everything twice.” The DRY principle is often attributed to Andrew Hunt and David Thomas, whose book, the Pragmatic Programmer, came out in 2000. Techopedia Explains DRY Principle The idea of the DRY principle is that, using efficiencies and eliminating redundancies, programmers can make code more efficient and easy to change....

In 2020, The Sims 4 celebrated its sixth birthday. This marked a milestone none of the previous Sims franchise titles had reached before their successor was launched. The Sims was released back in 2000 and The Sims 2 came along just four years later in 2004. This was followed by The Sims 3 five years on in 2009 and The Sims 4 was released after another five years in 2014. We are now into our sixth year of The Sims 4 and there’s still no official news of The Sims 5 being released any time soon....

In just about every Elder Scrolls title, players are able to find history books that tell tales of adventure and intrigue that happened centuries before the events of the game. Even in the first game in the series, Arena, the events take place relatively late in the lifecycle of Tamriel. For the most part, each new game in the series takes place sometime after the previous one and moves the timeline forward somewhat, but this isn’t always the case....

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s second Season is coming to an end on April 7th, after six weeks of new content updates. Ever since its February 12th launch, Modern Warfare’s Season 2 has brought a host of new additions to Infinity Ward’s massively-popular FPS. Kicking off with the return of classic map Rust, alongside new maps for Gunfight and Ground War, the season also introduced several new game-modes and playlists. These additions were supplemented by a new Battle Pass, which introduced the popular Grau 5....

As you play through Persona 5 Strikers, you will begin to receive requests, essentially sidequests, which ask you to return to previously completed Jails in order to complete a certain task. One kind of request that you will receive is about retrieving Forgotten Desires, all of which are given by Mona. There are eight Forgotten Desires in total, each hidden in a different Jail, and while Mona will give you a little text clue about their location, it’s still pretty vague....

The Nintendo Switch just celebrated the second anniversary of its release, having sold over thirty million units across the world. The future is looking bright for Nintendo’s latest system, which has already received games in the Mario Kart, Super Mario Bros., Super Smash Bros., and The Legend of Zelda series, with games in the Animal Crossing and Pokémon series yet to come. The problem with Nintendo front-loading the first two years of the Nintendo Switch’s lifespan is that they have already used up games from the biggest franchises, and could risk saturating their brands if they make new titles too soon....

John Walker, better known as US Agent, was revealed at the end of the first episode of Falcon and the Winter Soldier. We don’t learn his name, but from his uniform and the fact he is introduced as the new Captain America, it’s pretty clear that that’s who he is. We know literally nothing about Walker in the MCU right now, but we know a lot about him from the comics, so if you want a taste of what our new Captain America is like, we’ve got you covered....

Warning: contains spoilers for The Boys Seasons 1- 3. We love The Boys, which is an outrageously gross and often hilarious take-down of celebrity culture, social media politics and even, occasionally, superhero stories. But we have one request for The Boys season 4 – let the female characters be as flawed as the boys! Of course, every character in The Boys is flawed in some way, because it’s just that kind of world....

If Rockstar ventures too far into trends such as battle royales and online multiplayer, it runs the risk of heading down the same road as Fallout 76. If this current generation of gaming is defined by one game, it will be Grand Theft Auto V. Released at the start of the generation, literally at launch, and it remains one of the best-selling games every single week. Rockstar’s tireless work to update the game and add to its already vast online elements not only keeps people coming back but continues to entice more players in....

Excitement has been steadily building for the Xbox Series X as rumors have circulated about its capabilities. What is clear, is that the Xbox Series X will have impressive hardware that will rival its competition in the gaming market. Despite this, some fans have been concerned about exclusive titles coming to the console, and this issue is now set to be rectified in July. The Xbox console franchise began in 2001 and through impressive hardware and titles, it managed to create a memorable and appreciated series of consoles....

The head of Microsoft’s Xbox division, Phil Spencer, asserts that the Xbox One is more than likely not the last console the tech company will produce. During an interview with The Verge, Xbox boss Phil Spencer was asked whether or not he foresaw a point in time wherein Xbox would exist as an intangible entity such as an app, a storefront, or a brand, rather than a physical console, to which Spencer said he did not....

At the end of this week, Nintendo will be releasing Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition for the Switch. An enhanced port of the 2010 original, the re-releases comes with a graphical makeover, quality-of-life improvements, and some additional content in the way of an epilogue campaign. It’s a very tasty prospect for a double-dip and practically a no brainer for anyone that never experienced the original. Did all of the improvements and tweaks result in a better game, though?...

Shovel Knight debuted on multiple platforms in 2014 to rave reviews but the franchise is having a bit of a resurgence this month thanks to the release of Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove on Nintendo Switch. Now, game director Sean Velasco has let it be known that he wouldn’t mind seeing his favorite character show up in another Nintendo game somewhere down the line: Super Smash Bros. “I think there is a ....

What Does Converged Fabric Mean? Converged fabric is one of several terms circling around the idea of converged infrastructure, a concept for bundling IT components into a single package for efficiency purposes. As vendors and others work to describe and define converged infrastructure, terms like “converged fabric” and “fabric-based computing” have emerged. Converged infrastructures offer the ability to manage various parts of a system in the same central module or unit....
