A lot of players have decided to jump into Helldivers 2 this week. So many, there have been issues in the multiplayer bug-shooter. Of course, any online-centric game encounters problems, such is the nature of relying on servers and having hundred of thousands of players at once. Developer Arrowhead is working on ironing on the kinks, but the team has warned a full solution might take a minute.

The air is thick with the smell of hotdogs, sweat, and anticipation. The Baltimore Ravens and Detroit Lions, having made it through their respective championship games against Kansas City and San Francisco, just like most of us hoped they would, have marched out onto the field to take their shots at glory.
For the former it’s about the legacy of a quarterback who’s all but wrapped up his second MVP at just 27 years old and a defence that’s strangled the life out of the league’s most elite attacks this year that’s on the line. For the latter, it’s the legacy of an entire organisation whose history is stacked with a lot more disappointment than success, the battle-scarred, but unbroken beast that hasn’t made the Super Bowl since before the Super Bowl was even a thing.
Only one will have the redemption they desperately crave when today’s game in Madden NFL 24 is all said and done.
A couple of weeks ago, Hideo Kojima announced that he was returning to the action espionage genre with a new game, codenamed Physint.
In the latest episode of his YouTube series, HideoTube, Kojima says that returning to the same genre as Metal Gear was inspired by players asking for it “every day on social media”, and by a brush with death he experienced in 2020.
Custody battles, crime waves, and conspiracies that go all the way to the top
Las Vegas will host Super Bowl 58 in its new billion-dollar, sustainably powered Allegiant Stadium. The venue holds 70,000 people, but if you’re not one of them and American football is your thing (or you just like the buzzy commercials and want to see Usher perform at halftime) you’ll need a way to watch at home. Luckily, there are a multitude of ways to do so — and one of them is nearly free. Kick off happens Sunday, February 11, at 3:30pm Pacific (6:30pm Eastern) so you have some more time to decide how you want to watch the big game. Here are all the ways to watch Super Bowl 2024.
This year, the rights to air the biggest annual sporting event in the US goes to CBS… and Nickelodeon. Yep, the kids channel is hosting a live, family-friendly version of the event, complete with helpful thematic graphics and the cast of SpongeBob SquarePants and Dora the Explorer hosting, providing commentary and explaining the rules to the youngest NFL fans. If you don’t need sideline reports from Sandy Cheeks, regular versions of the game will appear on CBS, CBS Sports Network, Paramount+ and on the NFL+ mobile app.
Cable and satellite subscribers can tune into their local CBS station. If your plan includes CBS Sports Network (or Nickelodeon), you can go that route, too. Here’s a list of local CBS stations and affiliates so you can find your channel.
Last year, the Super Bowl was a little more complicated to stream since the broadcaster (Fox) didn’t have an over-the-top streaming app. It’s easier this year: the standalone Paramount+ app lets subscribers watch the game live. Plans start at $6 per month and there’s currently a free seven-day trial, but there’s no telling if that deal will still be live right before the big event. Of course, most live TV streaming services will also have the game, either on your local CBS station or via CBSSN. Here are the providers that will show Super Bowl LVIII:
YouTube with Live TV – $73 per month
Hulu with Live TV – $77 per month
Fubo – $80 per month
DirecTV Stream (CBS and Nickelodeon) – $80 per month
Philo (Nickelodeon only) – $25 per month
If you’re willing to pay, Paramount+ is the cheapest way to stream the Super Bowl this year, plus you’ll get other shows to watch when the game’s over.
Almost. If you buy an indoor digital antenna, which hooks up to the coaxial port on your TV set, you can grab the game broadcast from your local CBS affiliate at no extra cost. It’ll let you watch your local NBC, ABC, PBS and FOX networks, too.
The NFL+ mobile app is airing the Super Bowl, but only on your smartphone or tablet (PC access and casting isn’t supported for primetime games, which includes the Super Bowl). So if you’re watching solo, this could be a good option. A subscription goes for $7 per month and it also provides NFL Network content with 24/7 football news.
For some, the action in between the two halves of the game is what really matters. Mega stars have headlined the halftime show for decades now, with performances by Rihanna, Shakira, Lady Gaga, Prince, The Rolling Stones and Beyonce garnering almost as many headlines as the game itself. This year, Usher, who’s timing the release of his latest album to drop just two days before the game, will light up the stadium with a set. Before the game, Reba McEntire will sing the national anthem and Post Malone will follow that up with a rendition of “America the Beautiful.”
