CSGO: Gambling sites are flourishing

Gumbo is the latest favourite character in Fortnite

Next on the agenda is the newfound love of many players within the Fortnite community. Gumbo is the newest member on the scene, with some players even purchasing 50-levels just to gain access to this special character in the game. Those who are taking accountability for the move will actually admit he was so worth it too. We have seen ninjas, superheroes and countless hybrids, yet there never has been a mashup of this character before. Gumbo is perfect, and if you are wanting a seasonal gift for yourself, this may be the one. Although it will set you back around $30 to do so, it is the season to treat yourself after all!

Halo Infinite is getting more playlists

For all the Halo Infinite players out there, this is your moment to rejoice. Not only is this the season for joy, but you will also be accommodated with some seriously good playlists from December 14th! This will include Slayer, Slayer Swat, Free-for-all and Fiesta. The biggest complaints from players were that since the launch of the game, there have not been enough playlists beyond the Quick Play available, meaning this will certainly be your 10-day early Christmas gift to look forward to, for the extra gameplay hours you will accumulate over the festive period.

Sonic Frontiers trailer has revealed that Amy is a ghost now

Next up on the news front, we have reason to believe that Amy from Sonic is now a ghost within the game. She will be the voice of reason and guidance for Sonic on his gameplay and adventure, which leaves us hanging with multiple questions. Is she dead? Has she been possessed? Is she stuck in another world? While the answers are far from being given, players will be wanting to know more, leaving this a great marketing exploit to reel players into the storyline.

Microsoft ‘Lionhead was the biggest missteps’

Last but not least, while this comes to many as a little bit too late, it still is welcome, nevertheless. The episode of the Power on: The Story of Xbox saw multiple members of Xbox discuss how Lionhead studios had its closure and were in fact the biggest misstep of the company. While it is sad to look back on the closure of Lionhead, the game conglomerate can take a few lessons learned from the situation, including the fact that Xbox now believes it is their job to accelerate and help know-how and what they do (quoted directly from the episode). Nevertheless, fans who have followed the inner workings of Xbox for years will certainly be grateful for this progress forward and accountability from Microsoft.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
