For the uninitiated, Bullets Per Minute (often abbreviated to the un-googleable BPM) is a first-person shooter with a rhythm action twist. The basic premise is that you are one of the famed Valkyrie warriors of Norse legend - inexplicably packing an arsenal of 21st-century firearms - who must battle their way through the nine realms, all while keeping to the beat of a heavy metal soundtrack. Think of it a bit like the movie Baby Driver, in which the various set-pieces were all perfectly synchronized to needle drops....

If Warzone isn’t to your liking, there are also other esports events to keep you busy. The ESPN Esports Valorant Invitational starts its semifinals at 3:30 p.m. EDT with seven of the top teams in the unreleased FPS competing for superiority. With ESPN needing to curb most content since we can’t play sports outside, focusing a sharper pivot on esports just makes sense. Warzone Wednesdays Rules The rules for the Warzone Wednesday tournament are the same as last week, with teams of two competing in brackets to get the most kills....

Why is Castlevania ending? Two factors are at play when it comes to Castlevania coming to an end: Netflix’s cancelation policies and the controversy around the series’ creator Warren Ellis. Netflix generally cancels all but its biggest shows after three or four seasons, or about 30 episodes. Castlevania’s fourth season brings the episode total to 32. There are a number of reasons (as previously explored by Newsweek) why all but the biggest shows like Stranger Things and The Crown end around the 30-episode point....

It’s a job he’s had for more than 20 years, trusted to walk around with hammers and screwdrivers as he carries out his work. But the death row inmate’s last day will be Thursday, February 20—the date of his execution by electric chair. Sutton, 58, was sentenced to death for the killing of a fellow inmate, the child rapist Carl Estep, in 1985. At the time Sutton was already serving a life sentence for killing his own grandmother when he was 18—he had thrown her into a river to drown—and the murders of two men, Charles Almon and John Large in North Carolina....

Directed by Orson Welles (played by Tom Burke in Mank), Citizen Kane tells the story of Charles Foster Kane (played by Welles), a media mogul who dies with the final word “rosebud.” Told by a series of innovative non-chronological flashbacks, the film sees its cast trying to understand exactly what those final words meant. Though it only won one Oscar in 1942—for best screenplay, leading to a debate ever since of who exactly wrote Citizen Kane—the movie has loomed large over Hollywood history ever since....

Posting to Reddit’s “Am I The A**hole” forum on Monday under the username u/Evening-Section2887, the man explained that he and his wife recently purchased a five-bedroom home with the intention of starting a family. He added that the home contains two living areas—a “main floor living room” and a basement. “I figured my wife would want to take priority over the main floor, so I said that she could design the main floor living room the way she would like as well as the master bedroom, but I wanted to design the basement living area the way that I want,” he wrote....

During his run in the primaries, Yang generated a lot of attention especially among young voters, liberal Democrats, and libertarians, many of whom were attracted to his plan to give every adult American $1,000 a month as a universal basic income, in what he called the “Freedom Dividend.” Last September, the entrepreneur tweeted a video of himself crowd surfing at the AAPI Democratic Presidential Forum in Costa Mesa, California, carried along by his supporters known as the “Yang Gang....

Brown has been in the news lately—he was previously signed to the Oakland Raiders, but during the offseason, he was difficult. Brown initially showed up to practice with frostbite on his feet from cryotherapy, and when he was finally able to play, he refused unless he could wear his old helmet, chafing against the NFL’s new helmet safety rules. The Raiders fined him $215,000 for his conduct, and in response, Brown asked to be released from his contract....
