Monster Hunter Stories 2 was announced for Switch alongside Monster Hunter Rise, with a release planned for later in 2021. The original Monster Hunter Stories released on the 3DS and for mobile, and was well received. With this in mind, fans might be wondering whether the first game is coming to Switch--and whether they should play it ahead of the sequel.In an interview with Gamereactor, producer Ryozo Tsujimoto explained that the first game is not likely to come to Switch. "There are no plans at the moment to bring the original Monster Hunter Stories to the Nintendo Switch," he said, but clarified that anyone worried that they need to know the plot of the first game for the sequel can rest easy."I can put that fear to rest because there's a brand new protagonist and a new storyline," Tsujimoto said.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla is hiding a special nod to The Lord of the Rings, it seems. Multiple players have discovered that, upon reaching England, players can find a tranquil little town called Glowecestre, which is filled with moss-covered houses with small doors. You can probably tell where this is going.Inside one of these houses is a piece of paper with text that references "little folk" and a "druid." The note sits on a desk--that bears a resemblance to the one in Bilbo's house--along with a golden ring. The note reads, "One of the little folk asked me to make the door smaller, as he wants to keep unruly houseguests from his house. After the nonsense with the druid last fall, I can see his point."This is not the only Lord of the Rings easter egg in Valhalla, it seems. Another video shows a location where the player can swim underwater where they can loot a dead man to find a "Precious Arm-ring."Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Fortnite has run several Marvel-centric events thus far, including Avengers, Deadpool, and Wolverine challenges, but things are getting a little more intense--and the stakes are getting higher--in its latest event. Fortnite: Nexus War will come to a close on December 1, and it's up to players to defeat Galactus or risk having the universe itself destroyed. The Battle Bus is loaded and ready to go. This is our final stand to save all Reality.The Devourer of Worlds arrives 12.1.20 4 PM EThttps://t.co/AGuTlNcu3h pic.twitter.com/ERKfEh4M9S — Fortnite (@FortniteGame) November 21, 2020The fight against Galactus kicks off on December 1 at 1 PM PT / 4 PM ET, and it's a one-time-only event. Epic Games recommends you get into Fortnite about an hour before the scheduled start time and the playlist will appear about 30 minutes prior to the event. You'll need to have update 14.60 downloaded in order to play and as the court case continues between Apple and Epic Games, iOS players are still left out of the fun. It's possible there could be a workaround on the way via iOS' Safari web browser, which is what some other companies are also doing instead of supporting dedicated apps.Just a few days ago, Fortnite also brought video chat to the game through the Houseparty app. It's available for the PC, PS5, and PS4 versions of the game and you need to have either an iOS or Android phone with the app installed.

James Bond has fought villains in many iconic locations around the world over the years, from the Giza Pyramids to the Eiffel Tower. One of the most memorable showdowns took place at the end of 1996's GoldenEye, in which Pierce Brosnan's Bond took on Alec Trevelyan, played by Sean Bean, on the massive Arecibo space telescope deep in the Puerto Rican jungle. Sadly, it's now been reported that the telescope and observatory will be shut down after 57 years.The decision to decommission the Arecibo Observatory by the National Science Foundation, the US agency responsible for it, follows two major accidents in the past few months. Operations were initially halted in August when a supporting cable became loose and fell onto the telescope's reflector dish, creating a 30-metre hole in the 305m-wide surface. A second cable broke this month, making another hole and damaging nearby cables.As a result, the NSF has decided to start a "controlled decommissioning" of the observatory. In a statement, NSF director Sethuraman Panchanathan said, "NSF prioritizes the safety of workers, Arecibo Observatory's staff and visitors, which makes this decision necessary, although unfortunate. For nearly six decades, the Arecibo Observatory has served as a beacon for breakthrough science and what a partnership with a community can look like. While this is a profound change, we will be looking for ways to assist the scientific community and maintain that strong relationship with the people of Puerto Rico."Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Netflix's Schitt's Creek was the runaway title on Nielsen's latest weekly list of top 10 streaming shows in terms of minutes watched. Because the reporting and analysis takes some time, these charts are relatively staggered. The newest numbers are for the week between October 19 and October 25, though it still offers an insight that streaming services themselves typically don't into who's watching what, and how much of it.Nielsen--the information, data, and measurement firm synonymous with TV ratings--clocked Canadian sitcom Schitt's Creek as being watched by at least two people for 1,058 million minutes across 80 episodes. The ever-popular The Office (which is still on Netflix, though going to Peacock in 2021) netted 869 million minutes across all 192 episodes. The only non-Netflix streaming programming to crack the top 10 is, perhaps unsurprisingly, Borat 2, which came in at number eight with 570 million minutes.
