Absorb the thunderous acting of Terry Crews in ‘Crackdown 3’ like his muscles would absorb you

The excitement over Sumo Digital's upcoming Crackdown 3 has been lukewarm at best. But the one human being on the planet who could fix that is the man, thy myth, the legend: Terry Crews.

At a recent Comic-Con panel for the game (above), the designers released a video introducing his playable character. Named after Crews' own son (who got him back into gaming in the first place), Commander Isaiah Jackson of the Agents of Justice is the man your girl told you not to worry about.

Decked out in his "level 6" suit, the designers wanted to give the Commander special abilities that set him apart from the other level 1-5 agents. Using Crews himself for inspiration, they built the special gear to fit his larger-than-life personality and IRL power-ups (i.e. being the single most beautiful human being on planet Earth, both inside and out).

Supercut of the disastrous ‘Pokémon Go’ Fest is here to make you cringe

Especially because they've actually done a good job of owning up to their errors. But, damn, if this video doesn't display what words couldn't: just how much anger was floating around what supposed to be a joyous event. 

Attendees couldn't contain themselves as they shouted and chanted about not being able to play, demanding the team do something to fix the issues. The stage performers and hosts did what anyone is supposed to do in situations like these — smile and allow the show to go on. But, ultimately, considering just how (literally) loud everyone was being in the audience, it wasn't something that could go on completely ignored. The hosts' enthusiasm was just too awkward a pairing with the audience's fervent booing. Read more...

Google admits it has too many music streaming services

It looks like Google is finally admitting what we all already know: The company has too many damn music streaming platforms. 

YouTube's head of music confirmed on Thursday that the company plans to consolidate its two music streaming services into one platform.

Speaking at a conference in New York Thursday, Youtube music chief Lyor Cohen said Google will combine YouTube Red and Google Play Music into a single service, according to a report from The Verge. 

It's not clear when this will happen or if the new combined service will be rebranded, but it's nonetheless a welcome move considering how complicated its current offerings are.  Read more...
