The NFL reversed a meaningless Ezekiel Elliot fumble 4 days after the game and it had huge implications for some fantasy leagues
Tyler Lauletta, provided by Published 11:27 am PST, Saturday, December 22, 2018 FOX A late stat correction from the NFL had major fantasy football implications. The NFL ruled Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliot did not lose a fumble against the TennesseeTitans on Sunday. For fantasy players, this gave Elliott two extra points, in some cases swinging playoff matches is heartbreaking fashion. Fantasy football can be a brutal game. On Sunday, most leagues were holding their semifinals, with four teams hoping to win whatever grand prize was at stake. Sometimes this is money — quite a large sum in some leagues — while for others it is merely pride, but whatever the reward, the players want to win. For most fantasy players, whether or not they made the championship was decided between Sunday afternoon and Monday night. But on Thursday, a stat correction traded the fates of some players.

iPhone XR review — A decent smartphone for mobile games
I’ve been looking around a smartphone game to show off my Apple iPhone XR, and I’ve found it in Command & Conquer: Rivals, the new real-time strategy game from Electronic Arts. It turns out it’s also a good game to show off what the iPhone XR can do. I’ve played with both the game and the phone for a while, and I’m enjoying both. The new game has good audio and gorgeous graphics, as well as fast-action head-to-head combat with other human players. It’s been called a Clash Royale clone, as it has the same basic one-versus-one multiplayer action. But the audio is better and so are the graphics. I like how the rock-paper-scissors strategy works, and how you have a wide array of weaponry to use against your rival in a kind of military chess game. The explosions are tiny on the mobile screen, but they’re first rate when it comes to quality. The game takes advantage of the power of the iPhone XR, which has a 6.1-inch liquid crystal display … [Read more...] about iPhone XR review — A decent smartphone for mobile games
20 Essential Games to Study: Demon’s Souls
The following is an excerpt from 20 Essential Games to Study. Tying everything together was a brilliant risk versus reward system inspired by the roguelike genre. Anyone who has played a roguelike knows that one of the core pillars is the extreme punishment for dying. When a player died, all progress was wiped out, and the player returned to the start. The reason why this was fine was that every new play featured a completely different world to explore. Demon’s Souls, and future games in the Souls-like genre, would meet in the middle. The level designs themselves were all hard-coded and fixed, with no random or procedural generation in effect. Upon dying, the player was returned to the start of the level, and all enemies were revived. By opening up shortcuts in the level, the player would begin to make permanent progress. The risk came into play with what the player lost when they died. Souls earned from killing enemies were both currency and experience points in the world of … [Read more...] about 20 Essential Games to Study: Demon’s Souls
