While exploring the penthouse area of the Burj Al-Ghazali, Hitman 3 players are likely to overhear several guards discussing the evacuation procedure and how two panels must be activated in quick succession for the lockdown to activate.

England manager Roy Hodgson hopes Ashley Cole will be treated with respect when the much-maligned Chelsea defender wins his 100th international cap in Wednesday’s glamour friendly against Brazil.

Hogwarts Legacy is uniquely poised in a lot of ways. For one, players will customize their own students to enroll at Hogwarts, and from the sounds of things, players have a lot of freedom in that department.

The late 1800s are an era in the Wizarding World’s timeline that hasn’t been explored much yet, and Hogwarts Legacy being an action RPG means fans will probably have a lot of agency in exploring it....

I think this would be a great time to take a look at the history of these nations. (The slideshow chronicles the major Asian cricketing nations. As such, the UAE and Hong Kong miss out.) #1 India Cricket was introduced in India by European merchant sailors in the 18th century. However, it was only in 1926 that India was invited to the ICC, then called the Imperial Cricket Conference thus becoming and became the first Asian, and the sixth team (behind England, Australia, South Africa, New Zealand and West Indies) overall to be granted Test status in 1932....
