Karma the cat could barely contain her excitement at seeing her owner, Carolyn, a graphic designer living in Connecticut, arrive home. Just before Carolyn’s return, Karma had cut a frustrated figure. In a video filmed by Carolyn’s boyfriend, the 9-year-old feline can be seen walking around the back of a couch, meowing at no one in particular. However, the minute she realizes Carolyn is home, Karma’s entire demeanor changes as she delightedly dashes off to greet her human companion....

The cars are designed to go slower — the top qualifying speed last week was the lowest at the track since 1967 and down by about 10 mph from the 2021 figure — and make driving talent more important.

It will still be nose to tail for 200 laps, as the 60-lap Duel races Thursday showed....

As always with restrictor-plate tracks, you have to come in with the handicapping mindset that almost anything can happen. It’s the type of racing that gives up to 38 of 43 drivers a legitimate shot at winning. The cars are almost all equal and the draft really closes the advantage some of the power teams have at the 32 other races. Who thought Trevor Bayne could win the 2011 Daytona 500 at 100-to-1 odds?...

Elliott won Can-Am Duel No. 1 at Daytona International Speedway, holding off Jamie McMurray and Kevin Harvick. MORE: Daytona 500 schedule and info Although the race didn’t mean anything for Elliott’s starting spot Sunday, the win did earn him 10 points. For the first time since 1971, the Duels are worth points for the top 10 drivers on a 10-to-1 scale, but the winners do not get bonus points to be applied to the NASCAR Monster Energy Cup Series playoffs....

Right now, dbrand is offering a set of black faceplates for the PlayStation 5, something fans have previously had to fashion themselves through custom paint jobs. Of course, some fans have managed to create stellar looking custom PS5 consoles, but few will manage to look as official as dbrand’s “Darkplate” designs do, which resemble what one would expect from an official black PS5 design.

Rishabh Pant won the toss and invited the Kolkata Knight Riders to bat first at Narendra Modi Stadium. Shubman Gill batted well at the top, scoring 43 runs off 38 deliveries.

Ball sat due to a groin injury and the Lakers decided there’s no need to risk injuring their star rookie more in a meaningless summer league game. Just take a look at what happened to the 76ers’ top pick, Markelle Fultz. Although Ball’s injury isn’t serious, resting him made the most sense.

After Australia posted 294 for nine in their innings, South Africa reached their victory target with more than 13 overs remaining. The 23-year-old De Kock hit 11 sixes and 16 fours in 113 balls to record the second highest ODI score by a South African batsman after Gary Kirsten hit 188 against the United Arab Emirates at the 1996 World Cup in Pakistan.

As expected for a new Dead by Daylight chapter, All-Kill will contain both a killer and a survivor, with the former being a crazed singer called Ji-Woon (AKA The Trickster). The character already has quite the backstory, with IGN reporting that The Trickster’s tale cruxes around him being “addicted to murder” and using his victims’ screams to create new songs.

While it’s a fascinating take on the horror genre, that’s usually not what keeps players coming back. Nearly since its release, Dead by Daylight has been able to secure some of the most well-known names in horror. Some of the Killers seen hunting the Survivors in The Mist include Bubba Sawyer a.k.a. Leatherface, Freddy Kreuger, Pyramid Head, Ghost Face, and a few more. For every Killer, there are licensed survivors from their respective franchises to hunt....

By all reports from Koch Media, that is not the case. The publisher just seems like it wants to “get [Dead Island 2] right,” which has resulted in the games not releasing this generation. That doesn’t mean Dead Island 2 won’t release for current-gen consoles, but a new job listing suggests it’ll also be for next gen as well. RELATED: Is Dead Island 2 Still Coming Out?

As Dead or Alive 6 players play various game modes, particularly DOA Quests and online multiplayer, they will earn costume parts. Whenever players earn costume parts, the game will notify them of it, which has had some players mistakenly believe that they’ve unlocked the costume itself. On the contrary, players typically have to earn between 500 and 1,000 costume parts to actually unlock any given costume in the game....

According to Wilson, many gamers avoid horror games simply because they are too scary. And unlike the film industry, where horror movies are frequently churned out on low budgets to great box office success, horror games are often just as expensive as any other triple-A title. Unfortunately for fans of the horror genre, Wilson’s comments are backed by the numbers. Take Resident Evil 7, for example. Despite releasing to rave reviews and considered by many to be a successful return to the franchise’s horror roots, Resident Evil 7 just met its sales target of 4 million units last week....
