[HTML1] It’s been roughly 15 years since Nintendo released Pokemon Red and Blue in North America, unleashing what would quickly become an unstoppable phenomenon that’s seen several iterations, a silly amount of merchandise, and a ridiculously popular trading card line. The latest installments in the Pocket Monster franchise, Pokemon X and Pokemon Y, are set to hit stores next month, but fans can’t help but reflect upon the original Game Boy titles with a sense of unrivalled nostalgia....

With that in mind, it should come as no surprise that Pokémon X and Y, the latest dual entries in the franchise, are best sellers as well.

The Serb is under immense pressure at the ongoing US Open, given all the history that is at stake. Djokovic is one Slam away from becoming the first man since Rod Laver to complete the Calendar Slam - a feat he reckons would be the biggest of his career. Winning the US Open would also give the 34-year-old his 21st Major, thus making him the sole record holder for most Slams won ahead of Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal....

The U.S. team received an invitation to take an eight-day, red carpet tour of communist China.

While the first game was famous for having thousands of people playing on the same server (with individual battles often featuring hundreds of players), it wouldn’t be surprising if PlanetSide 2 tried to push the barrier even more, though, aside from the reveal trailer that dropped today, nothing has been shown. For those of you who may not be familiar with the PlanetSide franchise, the original game was a massive first-person-shooter based MMO which housed seemingly limitless amounts of players on the same server - acting in squads to achieve objectives with the support of thirty-eight different kinds of vehicles and several different air-based units....

The Hut currently has the product listed as £34.93 ($55.55 U.S.). Do NOT consider this price set in stone, however, as Nintendo has still yet to even confirm the game’s existence.

Right now retailers have games sitting between $39....

I wish you good health and continued success in performing your exceedingly responsible duties,” Orban wrote. Orban, who has been in power in Hungary since 2010, previously told Reuters in September that he cannot see anything but a Trump victory and that he may be less co-operative with Biden if he is victorious....
