Playing Call Of Duty: Warzone has exposed how nosy I really am

Out of nowhere, I've recently binged YouTube videos called "What Are People in London Wearing?". In each episode, the host Kofi roams the streets in search of folks dressed in a pleasing manner. He then asks them where they got their various threads from, and even as someone who isn't really into fashion, per se, I find it fascinating.
These videos appeal to …

EA's NotE3 event takes place next month and rumours say Dead Space might be there
Though I'll be praying for more Dragon Age 4
EA Play Live, Electronic Arts' NotE3 event, will take place next month on July 22nd.

Hopefully this time around we'll get some more detail on both of those (pls BioWare, I beg you), …

Astroneer now lets you kickflip across planets on hoverboards
The latest update makes the game 20% more radical and 43% more sick
I might have to return to Astroneer. I played it a lot when it was first released, but drifted away like George Clooney in the movie Gravity. What’s grabbing my attention now, a whole two years after the initial release? They just added hoverboards in a new update. I will now return to it, also like George Clooney in the movie Gravity, but without …
