The third seed and 2016 champion Sindhu had the easiest time on court out of the three as she needed only 36 minutes to dismiss the challenge of the World No. 25 Busanan Ongbamrungphan of Thailand 21-12, 21-15. The Rio Olympic silver medallist absolutely cruised through her match and hardly faced any threat from her opponent. The only semblance of a fight that Ongbamrungphan managed to give Sindhu was when she stormed back from 2-4 down to lead 6-4 and kept it all level till 7-7....

Laundrie, who is sought by police as a “person of interest” in Petito’s death, hasn’t been seen since September 14. His family reported him as missing on September 17. Petito’s body was discovered on September 19. Two days later, the FBI ruled her death a homicide following an autopsy. In a Tuesday press conference, the Petito family’s attorney Richard Stafford said the Petitos don’t expect Laundrie’s family to cooperate with investigators, The New York Daily News reported....

In an interview with IGN recently, Newell, when asked how long the Steam Deck had been in production for, said that the idea of being able to play PC games on the move is not new, adding that playing a mobile version of something goes back “all the way to the 1990s.” The only difference, as far as he’s concerned, is that the industry finally has the capability to make it come to fruition....

The PalmPilot is still the most popular PDA by far, but Windows CE device manufacturers are trying to close the price/performance gap. Philips unveiled the Nino 200, which is slimmer, cheaper and easier to use than the current model, while NEC (www.nec.com) debuted the MobilePro 770 Handheld PC, a midsize CE device with a screen about half the size of a typical notebook display. But at $799, PDAs like this one are unlikely to win many converts in an era of rapidly plunging laptop prices....

Terim, who leads the Istanbul club in their return leg Champions League quarterfinal match against Real Madrid on Tuesday, was banished to the stands with a number of his coaching staff during Saturday’s game, which Galatasaray won 3-1, Xinhua reports. The manager, visibly angry, at one point went on to the pitch, grabbed the matchball and violently threw it to show his anger about a string of decisions. Newspapers Hurriyet and Vatan, quoting the official match report, said Terim insulted the referee and a Turkish football federation (TFF) representative....

The Barcelona talisman will once again go in search of international honours this summer as football’s global showpiece heads to Russia. Messi has won just about everything it is possible to win at club level, with collective prizes complemented by five Ballons d’Or as a mercurial individual talent. He has graced Copa America and World Cup finals in the past, but Argentina have always come up narrowly short. Gallardo concedes that the Albiceleste will not be among the favourite to go all the way in 2018 and end that drought, but admits Messi will always give them a chance....

“I think this game is going to be very tricky. In order to accelerate our preparation for the Asian Cup, we need to play such game.

While relief may be in sight for the Zombies weapon XP bug, this new Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War issue is one of many multiplayer problems that Treyarch needs to address. While the new bug may be funny on first glance, it was anything but a laughing affair for the players affected, with one remarking that it feels as if Treyarch did not have any play-testing done for the latest CoD game....

Game Freak announced via the official Japanese twitter account that it is looking for 23 new employees to join the team. The translated line that is getting the most attention is that this team will be focused on the goal to “create a new entry in the Pokemon core series,” but it seems unlikely this core entry will be related to Pokemon Sword and Shield.

Not so amazing if you are an Indian supporter. But familiar, yes. The last three Tests have provided unheralded sadness to the Indian fans, and even the most optimistic ones are beginning to lose hope. But history, with all its experience, has another story to tell. Humiliation is defined as “make (someone) feel ashamed and foolish by injuring their dignity and pride.” Sadly, this word is used more often than it should whilst speaking about losses by a huge margin, along with words like ‘raped’ ....

Garage and yard sales are two of the only places where it’s still possible to find genuinely good deals on retro games. Resellers and game collectors alike prowl yard sales for the best retro gaming deals, and sometimes they’re rewarded for their efforts with practical goldmines.

When you say kaiju, the world is almost always picturing Godzilla, King Kong, or both. However, the simple concept of a monster the size of a skyscraper is bigger than two or three franchises.

Back in 1990, Nintendo held the first-ever Nintendo World Championships, which were a nationwide video game tournament series that allowed kids to compete in a series of video game challenges. These games included Super Mario Bros, Rad Racer, and Tetris. These were all remixed versions of these games, stored on a singular cartridge which was given out as prizes to each of the finalists of the tournament. Nintendo would go on to give away gold versions of these Nintendo World Championships cartridges in a Nintendo Power magazine competition....

Initially, Awesome Games Done Quick began with a standard chat but it wasn’t long before the subscribers-only mode was turned on. Once on, the only way for anyone to interact in the chat was to pay $4.99 in order to gain access. As expected, gamers were not pleased by the restriction, especially since Twitch chat is part of the fun of the Games Done Quick livestreams. Yes, the focus is on the speed runs and the runners, but many like to interact with each other during the lulls....
