Armed Fantasia looks to serve as a spiritual successor to western fantasy RPG Wild Arms with the game being headed up by former Wild Arms producer Akifumi Kaneko. Armed Fantasia’s section of the Kickstarter introduces itself as taking an “old-school JRPG style” with players venturing across a vast desert expanse. The game’s “Cross Order Tactics” combat will combine elements of turn-based RPGs with “high octane action.” The Kickstarter also revealed more staff working on Armed Fantasia with character design done by Tomomi Sasaki and soundtrack by Japanese music group Elements Garden....

The Armored Core franchise has been dormant for a decade now, with the last installment Armored Core 5 releasing way back in 2012. In fact, many players found themselves completely unaware that the mech combat series was created by the same studio that made Elden Ring and became famous for its iconic Dark Souls series. With that connection now firmly established, players may be wondering what similarities Elden Ring and Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon will have, and there is one commonality that is almost guaranteed....

But Wright fans got lucky. A retired biologist named Jeannine Majde read an article about the plight of the William A. Glasner House, so named for its original owner. She clipped and mailed it to an old college friend and Wright fan, Jack Reed. “I sent him a note with the suggestion that he go for it,’” she recalls. He went for it. In June 2003, Reed paid $1.5 million for the unusual house, including two octagonal rooms, ornate stained-glass windows and a generous living room with a vaulted ceiling....

The good news: Fans will be allowed to watch March Madness in person this year. The bad news: Attendance will be severely reduced because of the COVID-19 pandemic. While that’s certainly not ideal, anything is better than missing the tournament entirely — as was the case in 2020. What’s more, the fact the entire tournament will take place in the state of Indiana — with games tipping off at the conclusion of the previous game — should make for some of the most exciting TV entertainment in NCAA Tournament history....

It has obviously not been smooth sailing, but Rodgers is slowly putting together the pieces of the jigsaw that he and FSG share as a vision in taking Liverpool forward. Liverpool managers have to daily walk past photos of Shankly, Paisley and Fagan, impossible acts to follow, but in less than two seasons in charge, Brendan Rodgers has made an impact on the club. Against Arsenal on Saturday, in a game that was touted as among the biggest for the club in the last 4 years, Liverpool were absolutely delightful to watch....

The Maricopa County Elections Department first posted on Twitter explaining that many tabulation machines in the county, which is home to Arizona’s capital of Phoenix, weren’t working. The hurdle comes after Maricopa County spent years addressing election misinformation after former President Donald Trump accused the county of committing voter fraud in the 2020 election. Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake also accused the county elections department of counting thousands of mail-in ballots after Election Day in 2020, which the department refuted....

The former World No. 1 posted a tweet of the couple looking at a phone, with the caption reading: Earlier, Osaka also implied that fans were wrong to believe the rumors of her breaking up with Cordae. Soon after Osaka beat Zheng Qinwen at the Silicon Valley Classic, there were reports that she broke up with the American rapper. However, the Japanese’s tweets over the past few days suggest that nothing could be further from the truth....

Now let’s move forward to present day where it’s a completely different picture. E3 2014 has come and gone, as has Gamescom 2014, and Microsoft has not just pushed Kinect out of the spotlight they’ve practically put it in a corner. And we’re not talking about the same clunky Kinect from 2010 either; this is the Xbox One’s Kinect, a more refined version of the motion control device. So, why in just four years has Microsoft pulled a 180 on Kinect?...

Being held in the Middle East — as part of FIFA’s pledge to host a major tournament in the region — Qatar 2022 will bring the biggest international football showpiece to the Arab world for the first time. However, the decision to grant a World Cup to Qatar has been met with criticism for multiple reasons, with the major structural change of switching to an end-of-year competition generating plenty of controversy....

Romero was expected to be Argentina’s number one goalkeeper for the World Cup, but will be unable to take the gloves in Russia following his latest injury setback. The goalkeeper was expected to start in goal for Manchester United in the FA Cup, but manager Jose Mourinho selected David de Gea due to Romero’s lack of fitness. And the 31-year-old, who started the World Cup final as Germany edged a 1-0 win over Argentina in 2014, will now miss the chance to represent his country in Russia....

In a statement published on Twitter on August 28, Argentina’s National Directorate of Migration said it had been targeted by a cyber attack, which caused a disruption of a number of services, including border control. According to the agency, the Integrated Migration Capture System (SICaM) the country uses to facilitate international crossings was “particularly affected” by the attack, causing a disruption to entries and exits in and out of the country....

While supporters of the Albiceleste have a healthy rivalry with Brazil, their view of their other two neighbors is somewhat lower in regard, meaning only a win will do whenever they face Oscar Tabarez’s men. Not only is the game important emotionally for Argentina, but given how things have gone so far in Group B, it is also vital in terms of securing top spot. Uruguay toiled to a 1-0 win over Jamaica in their opening game, meaning they currently lead the standings....

Almirola was in attendance at a charity event hosted by Martin Truex Jr. in Statesville, N.C., on Wednesday. The money he helped raise will go toward treating pediatric and ovarian cancer.

MORE: Audio released from Almirola’s crash at Kansas The injury will sideline him indefinitely from the NASCAR Monster Energy Cup Series....

Delaware has recently seen a slight uptick in coronavirus figures. Despite reporting the lowest number of new positive cases in two weeks on Tuesday, July 21, the trend line shows that the state’s 7-day rolling average has been increasing incrementally. On Tuesday, July 21 the state’s Division of Public Health (DPH) reported only 39 new cases, compared to 137 the day before, but the moving average had risen to 92....

“The way it affected Coach physically, visually, resonated with our team,” Scooter Barry, a guard for that KU team, told Sporting News. Marshall was not a star by the 1987-88 season. He was a player who’d been through a lot physically and recovered to be an important member of a team with designs on winning a national championship. He started the first 11 games, averaged 8.8 points and 4.0 rebounds, made half his shots and the occasional 3-pointer....

“I am scared and you should be, too,” Dr. Brandon Bikowski wrote in a guest opinion article published Sunday by the Tucson Sentinel. His article went on to describe the fear he had for his patients, the lack of knowledge he and other medical professionals have about the virus while trying to treat the infected and the decisions government leaders made that he said he believed enabled the virus to spread freely....
