The stars of the original ‘80s hit, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, and Ernie Hudson, sat down with Fallon on NBC’s late-night show to promote the upcoming Ghostbusters sequel. They talked about what it was like making the original films together and the significance of passing the torch on to the next generation. The three Ghostbusters appeared together in 2020 as well, on Josh Gad’s Youtube show. The fourth original ghostbuster, the late Harold Ramis, was of course sorely missed then and now....

The Bills receiver took issue with the league’s new policy that allows vaccinated players more freedom than unvaccinated players. The rule adjustments are as follows, per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. Most notable among the NFL’s new rules is that vaccinated players are no longer subjected to daily COVID testing. In addition, vaccinated players don’t have to quarantine after a high-risk exposure to COVID. Meanwhile, unvaccinated players are not allowed to leave the hotel during team road trips while vaccinated players can do so and interact with vaccinated family and friends....

Josh Allen has had quite the turnaround from inaccurate passer in Year 1 to dominant football thrower in Year 3. And those who doubted Allen’s arm talent heading into the 2020 playoffs should quickly have them erased. Allen, leading his team down field with a 3-0 deficit to the Colts, showcased his unique arm talent on three separate throws: a flick of the wrist to Stefon Diggs, a scrambling bullet pass to Gabriel Davis and a remarkable tumbling touchdown toss to Dawson Knox to pull the Bills ahead....

Allen’s grandmother died Saturday night, less than 24 hours before Buffalo hosted Seattle. Bills head coach Sean McDermott announced the news following the Bills’ 44-34 win, in which Allen threw for 415 yards and scored four total touchdowns. To show their support for Allen, the Buffalo fanbase (known as Bills Mafia) began donating to Oishei Children’s Hospital, which Allen has supported in Buffalo. As of Tuesday morning, more than 10,000 people have donated, with the amount totaling more than $200,000, according to the hospital....

Medical staff administered CPR for several minutes before he was transported by ambulance to University of Cincinnati Medical Center. Per the NFL, he is currently in “critical condition.” The league released the following statement after the game was suspended for the night: The NFL Players Association also released a statement: Players were seen in tears as Hamlin received medical attention....

The unbeaten new WBO super middleweight champion can look toward a big domestic clash against World Boxing Super Series winner and WBA super middleweight champion Callum Smith or he could try to lock down a fight with Saul “Canelo” Alvarez at 168 pounds. He could also step back down to middleweight in attempt to catch Canelo there or line up a shot against Gennady Golovkin or Demetrius Andrade, who holds the WBO belt Saunders had to vacate after his failed VADA anti-doping test....

With the departure of series creator Ken Levine and over eight years since the release of BioShock Infinite, fans are wondering just how similar the upcoming title will be to the original trilogy. There are some good reasons to think that the next BioShock won’t exactly be BioShock 4. RELATED: Why a New Setting for BioShock 4 Makes More Sense Than Rapture or Columbia The BioShock Formula Although the distinction goes far beyond the title, the next BioShock game already appears unlikely to be called BioShock 4....

The latest update to BioShock: The Collection seems to have added a few minor fixes, as well as implementing support for the PS4 Pro within the PS4 version of the game, as well as Xbox One X for Microsoft’s current enhanced console. This is especially surprising for fans when considering that the BioShock series skipped this console generation, meaning that the game had already finished development long before the PS4 Pro was even conceived by the engineers at Sony....

The issue revolves around “gold farming” or in The Old Republic’s case, “credit farming.” While is it not a crime to have a lot of credits in the game, some were taking advantage of the game’s design. Senior Online Community Manager for The Old Republic Stephen Reid initially explained that there were players who received permanent bans for the credit farming. Reid did not expand further on the permanent bans....

BioWare likely has high ambitions for the games it is creating. However, rather than forcing hype through consistent promises, BioWare is instead taking a more transparent approach, being honest with fans regarding its progress on the latest Dragon Age and Mass Effect games. Considering how some studios will set incredibly high expectations, it is refreshing to see BioWare’s transparency in action. RELATED: Future Mass Effect Games Should Take Dragon Age’s Storytelling Approach...

It’s objectively known that the upcoming title will be a gigantic action-oriented game, with EA head honcho Andrew Wilson confirming that the game would ‘blend genres’ to deliver an action-adventure experience, building from RPG roots and placing them into this much more action-oriented world. While he officially described the title as an action-adventure, the EA executive wouldn’t say much more beyond that about the title, though he did confirm that the IP itself was wholly owned by BioWare, unlike other IPs like Star Wars Battlefront....

When working on the original Mass Effect, BioWare noticed the more social direction games were taking, and began work on a multiplayer mode. The multiplayer would have essentially been the campaign played as a co-op experience, but sensing that doing so would be detrimental to the single player gameplay and the story, BioWare dropped their multiplayer plans and continued work on the main game. The possibility of a multiplayer mode cropped up again during Mass Effect 2’s development, but due to similar issues on how it would effect the narrative, BioWare chose to forgo the multiplayer once again and focus on the singleplayer....

Studying tool use is all the rage among animal behaviorists because it promises to shed light on animal minds and the origins of the human one. So far, scientists have seen green herons using bait (twigs, berries, discarded crackers . . . ) to attract fish, Egyptian vultures using stones to crack open ostrich eggs and the woodpecker finch of the Galapagos using a splinter or cactus spine to pry grubs out of holes....

This is the second gold for the 19-year-old U.S. gymnast in Rio, but she still has a chance to win three others in various events, reports Efe. Biles accumulated 62,198 points in the all-around competition on Thursday, with the silver medal going to her compatriot Alexandra Raisman, with 60,098, and the bronze to Russia’s Aliya Mustafina, with 58,665.

Boy, did he tell reporters. FANTASY: Injury updates for Week 7 According to NESN.com, Belichick went on for more than five minutes. And though he was asked about sideline headsets malfunctioning during Sunday’s victory over the Falcons, he began with the tablets. “As you probably noticed, I’m done with the tablets," he said. “They’re just too undependable for me. I’m going to stick with pictures, which several of our other coaches do, as well, because their just isn’t enough consistency in the performance of the tablets....

The 64-year-old Microsoft co-founder chose not to namecheck one of the world’s most popular, and lucrative, EV firms when discussing the need to power vehicles with clean energy, with Musk’s carmaker notably absent—at least by direct reference. Tesla has enjoyed a surge in valuation this year and has a market cap of more than $375 billion. Gates, who has previously criticized Musk, seemingly decided not to include Tesla’s new Cybertruck in his line-up of upcoming all-electric pick-up truck options....

Friday night’s Real Time With Bill Maher opened with a monologue in which the comedian host said he witnessed the death of democracy after the Senate voted 51-49 not to hear witnesses in Trump’s impeachment trial. Maher reiterated his frequent complaint that the Democratic Party doesn’t play hardball politics like Republicans do through shady tactics like voter suppression and accepting help from Russian hackers. Maher said Sanders’ candidacy is thriving because the progressive senator is the only Democratic candidate with an “army” that can match Trump’s MAGA supporters....

From web to print to television to podcasting, Simmons has been a prodigious creator of compelling content. Through his persona as “The Sports Guy,” he connected with fans as few writers have. Simmons’s legacy at ESPN is vast, and it is secure. He was the founder of the network’s acclaimed “30 for 30” documentary series, as well as the website Grantland. But Simmons did something else at ESPN that subtly changed sports media: he wrote and spoke of sports betting consistently and smartly, and he did it in the open, most notably through his Friday NFL point spread picks and his betting discussions on his “B....
