PSG enter the tie as slight favourites as they will be contesting their fourth consecutive quarter-final in the competition, while City will be making their last-eight debut in Europe’s premier soccer competition. But City look well equipped to disrupt the French champions, especially after midfielder Kevin De Bruyne returned from an injury layoff. “I don’t care if we’re the favourites. At this level all teams have their chance,” Blanc told a news conference on Tuesday....

With star playmaker Diego Valeri out because of a hip problem, beating undefeated FC Dallas in Saturday’s contest was going to be difficult. And while the Timbers ultimately fell short of the victory, watching FCD equalize twice in a 2-2 draw, the visitors were in control of large stretches - a rare site at Toyota Stadium, where FCD is generally dominant. “We’ve been pretty fierce with our attack this year and we showed that again today, especially with one of our top players Diego Valeri being out," Timbers coach Caleb Porter said after the game....

RELATED: Bleach: Most Powerful Zanpakuto Spirits’ Shikai and Bankai In this male-dominated action-packed supernatural story, it seems that more girls are sitting on the sidelines (even though they clearly have what it takes to hold their own on the battlefield). Most of the time, nerfing certain characters helps to cast their significant others in a better light and, as everybody knows, too many cooks spoil the broth. This article will contain spoilers from Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War, currently streaming on Hulu....

According to a statement from Blizzard Entertainment, StarCraft 2 lead designer and Heroes of the Storm game director Dustin Browder, former Hearthstone production director Jason Chayes, and former Hearthstone director Eric Dodds quietly left the studio a few months ago. Blizzard goes on to make it clear that development is a collaborative effort, attempting to reassure fans who may be worried at how the games may be impacted. What’s surprising about the reveal is how under the radar it was, only being noticed in a recent Kotaku article which detailed the studio’s struggle in 2019....

Some may view this as a sign of trouble for the upcoming title, but the game still appears to be in some capable hands. Cloud Chamber, the newly-founded studio behind BioShock 4, is staffed with industry veterans, some of whom were pivotal in the development of all three BioShock games. RELATED: BioShock 4’s RPG Features Could Solve One of the Series’ Biggest Problems The Old Guard Cloud Chamber has several BioShock series alumni that are helping to put together the latest installment....

BioWare (Mass Effect, Dragon Age) was in attendance at the Develop Conference this morning and, at their keynote, they revealed that they are investigating different areas of opportunity for the company to expand. In regards to what’s hot today, BioWare co-founder Dr. Greg Zeschuk admits that they’ve been exploring Flash, iPhone and browser games as potential platforms - although we may never see some of these creations. He also announced that they are working on a “small scale MMO”....

McNally, Bioware’s Senior Director of Creative Development, recently tweeted out that he’s played the Shepard-less Mass Effect: Andromeda and Bioware Edmonton’s unannounced new IP. Instead of any doom and gloom regarding the development progress of both games, McNally wrote that both titles are “looking stunning”. Having said that, McNally’s tweet should be taken with an air of caution, as his comments regarding Mass Effect and Bioware’s new IP may not accurately reflect what’s really going on....

During an impromptu question and answer session with Anthem executive producer Mark Darrah yesterday, one Anthem fan expressed their “serious concern” at the lack of NPC squadmates. AI-controlled cohorts are one of the main reasons they love other BioWare games and since Anthem lacks that, they are majorly apprehensive about the game. The BioWare fan also wanted to know why co-op seems to be such a significant focus of the game’s marketing so far if co-op gameplay is actually optional and the game can be enjoyed solo....

In a group interview, Smollett-Bell shared with reporters that the version of Black Canary that appears in the 2017 fighting game Injustice 2 influenced how she interpreted Dinah Lance’s Canary Cry for the film. “I drew a lot of inspiration for the Canary Cry from the Black Canary in Injustice 2,” she said. “Even physically. For me, I really wanted to make it primal… It’s something she’s trying to hide....

Hayden Christensen is also going to appearing in the series, reprising his role as Anakin Skywalker. RELATED: The Book Of Boba Fett: Easter Eggs In Episode 1 Only Die-Hard Star Wars Fans Noticed...

That’s one bird saved. As an ornithologist in charge of the only bird sanctuary within 100 miles of Eilat, Israel’s burgeoning resort town on the shores of the Red Sea, Yosef has the job of worrying about the survival of more than 1 billion birds from Europe and Asia. That’s how many pass through Israel each year on their 6,000-mile round trip to sub-Saharan Africa. For thousands of years, birds have been able to survive this exhausting trek in no small part because a salt marsh at the southern tip of present-day Israel provided a break in the vast desert, a place to rest and grab a bite....

This article will go over how effective different contraceptive methods are at preventing pregnancy. How Birth Control Effectiveness Is Measured Birth control effectiveness is either measured in terms of “perfect use” or “typical use.” Perfect use (or lowest expected) refers to when the method is always used correctly, consistently, and as directed. A failure of perfect use would be when a couple always used condoms as directed but still became pregnant....

The volatility of the crypto market aside, those advocating for Bitcoin have always claimed that it offers what fiat money cannot: privacy and security. But that’s not really true. In reality, Bitcoin is not nearly as safe and private as many believe. Why Bitcoin Is Not Private Bitcoin does offer certain privacy protections most forms of fiat money do not, like the creation of addresses that are not tied to one’s identity....

As mentioned above, the game initially had a lot of technical and performance issues. Many of Pokemon Go’s issues were patched out in a 2016 update, but problems still remain. For the most part, however, the bugs in the game are harmless, giving Pokemon a different look or making them run in a peculiar way. Sometimes, however, these bugs can result in something far more horrifying. RELATED: Pokemon GO Bug Out Event Adding 3 New Pokemon to the Game...

The video, posted to Facebook by Ali Mohamed Belouizdad, shows what appears to be thousands of fish, flowing down a lane. There appears to be a small amount of water carrying the fish, but many of the fish appear to be suffocating. The stream of fish appears to gradually get closer to the camera, and a filming crew appears to be reporting on the phenomenon in the video. It is not clear where exactly the footage was filmed....

Activision continued by confirming that Black Ops 4’s day one digital sales broke the publisher’s records across all major platforms, too. The record wasn’t a product of Black Ops 4 being made available via Battle.net or a surge in Xbox One support. No, Black Ops 4 broke the digital day one sales record on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC individually, as well as the overall record. Though Activision did confirm that PC day one digital sales more than doubled last year’s numbers....
