For starters, those anticipating the same foreboding atmosphere from this Dark Souls 3 DLC pack are in for a treat.

Within that plane, however, it’s hardly going to be smooth sailing for the player. Instead, the Painted World of Ariandel is going to throw a whole new horde of enemies at the user, alongside some new bosses....

There were superstars at the top of the draft such as LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. Other players who made All-Star appearances included David West, Kyle Korver, Mo Williams, Josh Howard and Chris Kaman. Even guys like James Jones, Nick Collison, Kendrick Perkins, Kirk Hinrich, Boris Diaw, Leandro Barbosa, Steve Blake and Zaza Pachulia had lengthy careers as role players on successful teams. But as much as the 2003 class is known for its production in the NBA, it’s also known for having one of the biggest busts in draft history: Darko Milicic....

It’s not as wrong as it seems when driving through South Carolina to get to Atlanta for the Labor Day weekend race, the date once synonymous with Darlington that was taken away in a failed attempt to generate excitement in the Los Angeles market. For 54 years, Darlington ran the prestigious Southern 500 on Labor Day weekend until that date was moved to Auto Club Speedway, giving a second date to the California track that annually sold out its lone event....

Not only will the reunion of Super Bowl winners be awkward because Revis left New England after just one season to join a division rival, a decision he called a “no brainer,” but also because the Patriots and Jets both filed tampering charges against one another over the signing of Revis.

“(I would like to have) the power to fly – or, more simply the talent and the brain of a great artist to be able to see the world from a different perspective,” femalefirst.co.uk quoted him as saying.

NEWSWEEK: Since “The X-Files” ended, you’ve been focusing on movies. What about this show made you decide to come back to television? David Duchovny: It’s exactly the type of comedy that I like. It’s a throwback to adult sex comedies from the 1970s, like “Shampoo” or “Blume in Love.” Nothing like that has really come my way in my career, and I don’t see that sort of thing out there very much....

Jaffe has apparently winnowed the possibilities down to two candidates, and while the famously outspoken developer is tight-lipped on the details, he sums up one of the games succinctly: “There is a gun… and you hold it.” Jaffe announced his departure from Eat Sleep Play, a studio he co-founded, in early February. While Eat Sleep Play turns its focus to mobile games, Jaffe is busy staffing up a new development house in San Diego....

Among today’s four aces (we’re not putting Tanner Roark in that category yet, but he’s not that far off), Justin Verlander is the most interesting. Some people are going to be scared off his opponent, but the Red Sox are without Hanley Ramirez (flu), Xander Bogaerts (bereavement related), and Jackie Bradley Jr. (knee). Boston still has a couple big bats, but there are a bunch of holes in its lineup on Monday....

Dana White, the outspoken president of the UFC, told reporters on Tuesday that former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey would not be competing at the highly anticipated UFC 200 card in July. Even before her stunning knockout loss to Holly Holm at UFC 193 in November, Rousey was going to take a sabbatical from The Octagon.

Covington then took it a step too far when he addressed Usman’s home country of Nigeria. “Who did you get a call from?” Covington said to Usman. “Did you get a call from, freaking, your little tribe? Did they give you some smoke signals for you? You’re a joke, Marty Fakenewsman!” HALE: Covington’s xenophobia and bigotry are not OK, even if you think it’s an act Covington didn’t stop there during his post-fight press conference, calling Woodley, who is Black and supports the Black Lives Matter movement, “a communist, a Marxist, [someone] standing up for lifelong criminals....
