Detailed testing from Digital Foundry, published via Eurogamer, suggests that Dark Souls 3 will only manage a resolution of 900p on Xbox One hardware. The PlayStation 4 version of the game is able to maintain a stable 1080p. As a result, the Xbox One version will have it resolution upscaled on HD displays, at the cost of some detail. Digital Foundry also found some framerate stuttering that apparently causes the title to drop below 30 FPS....
The Deacons of the Deep themselves aren’t always seen as the most interesting fight in some playthroughs, but it does stand out when comparing Dark Souls 3 to older games. Most notable of these comparisons is to the multiple group bosses that can be challenged in Dark Souls 2. RELATED: FromSoftware Still Hasn’t Topped Dark Souls 3’s Slave Knight Gael Deacons of the Deep as an Ensemble Boss It is nothing new for FromSoftware to pit players against multiple bosses at once, although it is rare for that number to top out at more than three enemies in a single arena....
While exploring the darkest and deepest depths of the Overworld, unfortunate players will discover deep dark caves, a new cave biome coming in the 1.19 update. This biome is devoid of mobs as only the warden can spawn here, which requires a player nearby. Deep dark caves and the warden will bring a level of Minecraft horror with the darkness effect. A recent experimental snapshot for Java Edition added the darkness effect....
NBA League Pass: Sign up to unlock live out-of-market games (7-day free trial) “I think it’s less likely than likely,” Morey said of a Simmons trade coming about ahead of the February 10 trade deadline. “I hope that I’m wrong, it won’t be for a lack of trying… It takes two or three to tango and trades are difficult to construct in this league.” The ongoing saga seems no closer to a resolution as Simmons continues to sit out games for Philadelphia, and the team remains firm on its desire to get back a top 25 player for the three-time All-Star....
According to a study by the Associated Press released Saturday, Black people in each state are getting vaccinated at levels below their share of the general population, and in some cases, the disparities are significant. The data came from Alaska, Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Indiana, Maryland, Mississippi, Nebraska, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, Virginia and West Virginia, as well as Philadelphia and Chicago. Each of the states and cities have released racial breakdowns of their coronavirus vaccination efforts through January 25....
Hasse was reportedly shot down in the street while walking from his car to the courthouse in broad daylight on January 31, 2013. It was later revealed that the couple targeted him first because Eric, who was prosecuted by two of the victims in a computer monitor theft case, blamed Mark the most for losing his job. Oxygen’s Dateline: Secrets Uncovered revisited the case in a September 2020 episode titled Vendetta....
Witnesses described seeing three Black males approach 49-year-old Raul Carrillo Resendiz when a young Black male with short dreadlocks shot him, Dallas Police told Newsweek. Officers arrived at the scene in the 2800 block of Kirven Drive around 8:30 p.m, but the suspects had already fled. Dallas Police have released a surveillance video of the suspect vehicle which they believe to be a small four-door sedan, possibly a Honda Civic, with black rims....
Earlier today, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter announced a curfew starting from 7 p.m. Monday night until 6 a.m. Tuesday. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz also placed a 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew on the Anoka, Hennepin and Ramsey counties. Videos shared to Twitter showed a large crowd of protesters remaining outside the police department after 7 p.m., surrounded by police armed with riot gear and batons behind barricades....
As you might expect, the most obvious numbers-driven stacks of the day are in Colorado, as both the D-backs and Rockies get to pick on mediocre pitchers (Robbie Ray and Chad Bettis). First pitch is scheduled for 3:10 pm ET for that game, so if you want in on the action, get your FanDuel and DraftKings’ lineups set early. If you want to be contrarian during the early slate, go for a Blue Jays’ stack against Madison Bumgarner....
The Astros are the most obvious numbers-based stack in the afternoon, while the Blue Jays, Cubs, White Sox and Cardinals will be popular stacks in the evening FanDuel and DraftKings tournaments – and that’s not even factoring in players from the Giants-Braves game (Peavy vs. Wisler) and Reds-Rockies game (Moscot vs. Gray).

There are also some pretty clear fades tonight (aside from the obvious stayaways, like Dodgers against Jake Arrieta and Pirates against Jose Fernandez)....
I hope everyone is ready to jump back into DFS with tonight’s 14-game MLB slate (we are ignoring the early game between the Reds and Cubs). MORE: DFS cash-game lineup | 2016 fantasy football rankings Weather continued to be an issue last weekend, but all of the games were able to get in despite delays. Expect something similar tonight in Minnesota, but there’s definitely a chance that the game could get postponed....
The pitching is very deep today, whether you’re looking to pay up for an ace or go cheap. It reminds me a lot of trying to select a QB in NFL DFS most weeks. Difference is, the mid-tier pitchers are much more volatile than those mid-tier QBs, who can still give you big points in a bad game (and rarely get yanked during a rough start).

That is where our advice is going to carry us – after the stack of the New England Patriots, of course. The prices at the big DFS sites tend to be much more favorable for the teams who are not favored to win, and – most important – the ownership percentages of those “dogs” tend to be lower, making for nice plays in guaranteed prize-pool tournaments (GPPs). We have a little of everything in this week’s picks, but the “dogs” shall lead the way....
Letarte and NBC announced the move Thursday afternoon. Letarte has been Earnhardt’s crew chief at Hendrick Motorsports since 2011.

They saw the real thing Wednesday visiting Indiana National Guard troops at Camp Atterbury. They got an up-close look at some of the weapons and explosives used and they honored soldiers who recently committed to the National Guard and others who served in Afghanistan. The two drivers are sponsored by the National Guard, and they loved every moment. “Oh yeah, they’re entertaining us,” Rahal said after setting off an explosive so big that mud and clay landed nearly 300 yards from the detonation site....
