Friday 4-20-18

It’s been quite the week. Also lol the weed number. More on that later, here’s the news.

  • High School eSports Sans Shooters
  • PUBG Map Selector
  • The Fractured But Whole on Switch

New Kind of School Jocks


The National Federation of State High Schools has a number of responsibilities regarding high school regulations around the country. One of those responsibilities includes regulated school sports. The NFSH has recently announced that they’re working towards including eSports into the system. They recognize that around 70 percent of students identify as gamers, and want to include that. The NFHS partnered with a startup called PlayVS to build the digital infrastructure needed to support high school esports. Soon, students will be able to compete in official state championship competitions and be recognized by their state athletic associations. Next up, scholarships.

PUBG Map Selector


Not long ago, PUBG Corp announced that yet another new, tropical map is in the works. This one would allegedly have large caverns to explore and compete in. Being the third map option for the popular battle royale game, the developers have also stated that a map selection menu will be implemented. You will be able to toggle which maps you want to be randomly placed into while avoiding the ones you don’t want. Unfortunately, the Xbox One version of the game won’t get the second map, Miramar, until May.

Switched But Whole


This is news that probably wouldn’t merit a full post, but I’m wanting to report three things a day. So this is filler. South Park: The Fractured But Whole, the sequel RPG to the popular satirical cartoon, will its way onto the Nintendo Switch eShop. For a full $59.99, you will be able to download the standard edition (meaning no DLC). It releases on the eShop on April 24.


We have a new episode of The Cozy Co-op out today! It’s about To the Moon, check it out. That’s it for this week, check back Monday for a nice weekend wrap up post. Otherwise, have a great weekend!

Thursday 9-7-17: South Park, Bethesda, LA Noire, PUBG Water, and Free Games.

A fair bit of things to share today, all of which are exciting in one way or the other. The upcoming South Park game will be harder on black characters, Bethesda supposedly has an unannounced game this year, LA Noire ports are happening, Microsoft is sharing water tech with PUBG, and The Walking Dead Season 1 is free on The Humble Store.
