Bethesda Details Fallout 76's PVP
Bethesda has detailed Fallout 76's player versus player (PvP) combat and how it works in the wasteland of West Virginia.
In a blogpost, Bethesda outlined the rules of engagement that come into play when you run into another human player in Fallout 76 and revealed that PvP may begin as early as level five.

Santa Monica Studio Shares Entertaining Bugs From God of War's Development
SIE Santa Monica Studio, the developer behind this year's critically acclaimed God of War, has shared some bizarre and entertaining bugs from the development of its most recent game.
Revealed through the PlayStation Blog, the post is an homage to the quality assurance team that worked on God of War, which consisted of "roughly 40 extraordinary people who embodied the fundamentals of what was important to us as a studio."
The bugs that were shared range from entertaining to creepy to downright hilarious, with many showing us that even the most polished games have had their fair share of game-breaking issues along the way. Some bugs, like Atreus' face getting bizarrely distorted, were mostly visual, while some showed off audio issues the game once had, like Atreus repeating lines about draugr uncontrollably.

According to SportsPro, Zihao -- better known as "Uzi" -- will work with James on the "Dribble &" campaign, which will include the phrase "Dribble & Carry" on shirts. The campaign originally began in response to Fox News host Laura Ingraham's "shut up and dribble" comments after James had criticized President Donald Trump.
